On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂↕️
Happy birthday to an actual President, Barack Obama. 💙
I follow an account (Jay Waters @jaywaters.bsky.social) that posts the very same message every day. And every day I "like" it. 👍 #TheTruthMatters
Jay Waters@jaywaters.bsky.social · 2w agoThe President of the United States is a liar.

Still photo of ICE Agent (St. Charles) that slammed man’s face into the brick wall & then pushed back videographer- full video 👆 Make sure his face is seen & if you know his name add it 👇
Covered license plates. Unmarked vehicles. A teen thrown to the ground. In Joliet, ICE isn't enforcing immigration law. They are running a street intimidation operation with federal badges. There is a word for governments that make people disappear into unmarked vehicles. We should start using it.
Raider@iwillnotbesilenced.bsky.social · last mo.Disturbing reports from Joliet show ICE goons using aggressive, questionable tactics, including alleged racial profiling and forcing an individual into an unmarked vehicle with covered plates. Even more alarming: footage shows a goon shoving a teenager to the ground.
Delusional doesn’t even begin to explain it. “KA$H sent us.”
He stood by his oath, despite the consequences! A true patriot!
I’ve spoken with Jason Watson. He knew exactly what this would cost him. He gave up his military career to take a brave stand for democracy. Patriotism that only works with obedience isn’t patriotism.
Grifter vs Real President 🥰 Sounds great to me

I’m fed up with politicians saying we need to “respect” the result of the 2016 Brexit referendum. A decision by a narrow majority 10yrs ago, that turned out to be a costly mistake, does not have to be “respected”. If a democracy cannot change its mind it ceases to be a democracy.
I haven't been this impressed with a candidate in a l-o-n-g time. If @jamestalarico.bsky.social is the future of the Democratic Party, we are in VERY good shape.
James Talarico@jamestalarico.bsky.social · 2mo agoWhen we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.
PSAKI: “You’re a Democratic Socialist yourself, how do you see it?” 🔥 @aoc.bsky.social : “The Republican Party’s brand is fear — if you’re not afraid of your neighbor, you’ll realize who is actually pickpocketing you: large corporations and the Trump administration. People are feared out.”
Trump thought suing the BBC would intimidate them. Instead, they turned his own lawsuit into a legal headache that could force him to defend his actions surrounding January 6 under oath. That is the kind of self inflicted karma no political strategist could have scripted.
The trump administration is arresting people for the crime of embarrassing donald trump.
I'm really surprised that Trump is refusing to accept responsibility for screwing up the Reflecting Pool while blaming others. So out of character for him.
I've tried several times to craft a post which thoughtfully outlines why Trump is unfit for office.....but I keep coming back to the fact that he is a rancid, corrupt, stupid piece of shit.
This poll is a death knell for Brexit and a demand to #RejoinEU Whoever is PM must urgently consider action to this end. It is a policy which could help Labour recover support, and be one way to economic recovery for the UK. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
Two-thirds of EU citizens back UK rejoining bloc, survey finds
Poll also finds three quarters of people in Britain want closer ties, with majority accepting free movement

If this was an answer on Jeopardy. The question would be what is something trump never said to US Attorneys
All the right now has to offer is conflict. Some of its key figures have moved on from culture wars towards what seems to be a deliberate effort to foment civil war. If you're a conflict entrepreneur, the worse it gets, the better it is for you. Where they break, we must mend, building community.
Just remember, the last time the Knicks won it all, a corrupt president was forced to resign the next year.
