These are the oligarchs who seek to rule every aspect of our lives, and the current US regime is doing everything possible to facilitate that because it is owned by them.
Will Fox be updating their story on this and giving it the same amount of airtime as they did initial arrest?
This new whistleblower report is on par with the Zelensky call - not just because it’s violative of law - but because they also tried to keep people from seeing it. I’ve been doing this for a long time and this is absolutely explosive news. Impeachable and criminal. Swift accountability must follow.
1/The law requires a judicial warrant based on probable cause signed by a judge to enter a home or private area in a biz (not an administrative one signed by an “immigration authority” ie a DHS employee). This is clearly unlawful conduct. ICE can’t change the law just because it doesn’t like it.

Trump's Board of Peace: an assemblage of bloodthirsty, violent dictators.
Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.
TODAY on #MSNOW: 10am-2pm/EST 7am-11am/PST-Jack Smith Finally Testifies to Congress about when our Presidementia incited an insurrection at the Capitol to steal a free & fair election & when he stole Top-Secret Gov't Documents & stored them in his bathroom. Y'know... many, many, MANY crimes ago.
Great explainer by Reps @repstansbury.bsky.social and @repangiecraig.bsky.social 💥 ❌ Trump’s $40B bailout to Argentina (with self-serving by caveats) ❌ Trump interferes with Argentina’s elections (next week) ❌ Trump’s USDA told states to hold back on SNAP/WIC benefit payouts after Nov 1st. 🧵…

What if you don't choose to be a muse? What if the thing you're a muse for disturbs you? Jennifer Bannan's story "Muse" asks these questions and more.

Pittsburghers, don't miss this mash up of lit and photography.
RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.
Inhuman. “I don’t have any choice” is a lie.

Recently I inquired about a friend’s family member, asking her if they regretted voting Trump. She scolded me, saying she disliked my impulse to talk down about or shame anyone. I deserved the scold, in part because I’d started the conversation on text, oops. It brought me to reflect - (1/6)
How despicable!
Fred Wellman@fpwellman.bsky.social · last yr.She was a criminal and now they are giving her the honors of an American hero at the same time that the Republicans in the House refuse to hang a plaque honoring the hundreds of Capitol Police that defended them. Just disgusting. thehill.com/policy/defen...
can’t blame Dems for being so intimidated by the scorching charisma, sky high popularity, and really normal vocal cadence that RFK Jr brings to the public square
Andy Craig@andycraig.bsky.social · last yr.House Democrats could force a vote on impeaching RFK any time they want. Of course it would fail. But do you want to make an issue of it or not?
I insist on showing this every once in awhile. Look how proud.
𝙄𝙁 @abcnews reports on the pro-Palestine march across Sydney Harbour Bridge today, be prepared for the number of participants to be played down. The ABC has form in this regard eg "Hundreds of people" when in fact ... "Thousands of people." #GazaGenocide #MarchForHumanity
Why is the Trump administration detaining green card holders without cause, blocking legal counsel, and refusing to tell families where they are? Will Kim has lived here since he was five. He’s getting his PhD, researching a Lyme disease vaccine at Texas A&M—and ICE disappeared him at SFO.
So it appears that a requirement to be part of his inner circle is to be a sexual predator! UNREAL #Pinks #ProudBlue
