@jacobsoboroff.bsky.social After all the 9/11 remembrances this week, why has no one talked about the thousands of undocumented immigrants who helped clean up ground zero and now suffer the medical impacts, like cancer, who cannot get help with their medical expenses?

TWO SHOOTERS. Not just a lone dumbass in a panic, poorly trained, altho a gun expert claims they were running with fingers on triggers, so they are indeed lacking any real law enforcement skills. Taught to gun people down like it’s their Call Of Duty, the video game they gushed on afterwards,

We should pay more attention to what people are saying behind the scenes, and Frumpy’s earshot. Especially when they deny it to avoid his demented wrath.

Some people don’t (yet) understand the significance of this moment. There is now NO RESTRAINT on the fascists. Congress, courts can pass laws or issue orders but the fascists won’t obey them. Stop focusing on laws, politicians or elections. Now WE THE PEOPLE must END the regime. Ourselves.

‼️ Russia will not be able to capture Donbas before August 2027, — ISW Giving Russia the rest of the Ukrainian Donbas would be a strategic mistake, wrote the American Institute for the Study of War, arguing that it would take the Russian army at least 18 months to achieve this by force.

I'm not one for false optimism. But what I witnessed today in Minneapolis was tremendous, both in scale and exuberance. It was a stunning answer to the federal assault on Minnesota, a show of solidarity that gives us something to hold on to during times that are unforgiving.

Virtually every time there is a vote in congress now, there are a handful of Democrats voting with Republicans. Our lack of leadership is telling and obvious. Congressional Dems must demand new leadership. We all must demand it.

Dear Blockee, I block you for the same reason I scrape dog shit off my shoes. Not because I'm “afraid” of dog shit, but because dog shit has no inherent value, creates a huge mess, and makes everything smell like dog shit. Just to be clear, in this analogy, you are the dog shit.

Face it. ICE HAS ALIENATED AMERICANS by slamming their victims faces into the ground, killing people, wearing masks, not identifying themselves and using “Gestapo” tactics on immigrants & citizens. Americans are resisting, as they should. It is time to defund ICE! Repost if you agree #BlueCrew

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

When they wanted to release the files early this year, they paid $1M in overtime and put 1000 people on it - until they realized what was in the files. Now they’re slow walking the release.

He really wants admiration, recognition, and validation. It’s all grandiosity and self-magnification. He has this desire to build legitimacy, it’s rooted in needing to demonstrate competence rather than simply experience it. It’s shows he is hypersensitive to criticism or perceived
