BREAKING: In Nebraska rally, Trump just suggested he would be unbothered to see Iran "take out" LA or San Diego: “They could take out a city,” he said. “Let them take—Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. That’s—this is a very small price to pay."

Brazilians today are simultaneously voting a president, 27 state governors, 54 of the country's 81 senators, all 513 federal deputies. 12 bolsonaristas of 28 states total were already elected ☠️ Far right doing better than any party in decades

Last year Bolsonaro was prosecuted with overseeing a vast scheme to overturn the 2022 election he lost. Lula’s worker party steadied brazil after a near decade long recession Now Brazilian Voters have handed the reins of power in senate,congress, states & perhaps presidency back to the bolsonarists

ICE builds more prisons because the goal is explicitly to warehouse surplus labor, criminalize poverty, and assert total control over all of society. When Stephen Miller claims there are 25, 30, or even 50 million "illegal immigrants" in the US, he's betting on how many of us he'll need to imprison

He is wearing a black shirt and sitting in a red leather chair. Behind him is a wooden cabinet and a blue artwork with a yellow star. In the top left corner is a logo for the podcast "Half the Picture." Subtitles at the bottom read: "brief honest answer would be massive amounts of hashish."
