Renee Good's family filed two lawsuits today. The first, against, USG, is a standard wrongful death. The second is a Klan Act lawsuit against Jonathan Ross, AND STEPHEN MILLER and Greg Bovino. It names Nick Shirley and Christopher Rufo as non-party co-conspirators for their racist propaganda.
44. At all relevant times, Defendants Ross, Miller, Noem, Lyons, Homan,
Bovino, and the John Doe Federal Agents acted under color of federal law and within the
scope of a joint enterprise with the private actors described below. Defendant
Lewandowski acted in part under color of federal law and in part, as alleged below, as a
private person, his federal status having been limited to a temporary part-time designation
that his conduct exceeded. Shirley, Rufo, and Ben Bergquam, and the other non-party
private actors described below, agreed to and in fact participated in the conspiracy alleged
here: each acted in concert with, and with the knowledge and encouragement of, federal
officials.

2016: I am indifferent/annoyed by Taylor Swift, panicked over Trump Republicans, and obsessed with ASOIAF theories. 2026: I am indifferent/annoyed by ASOIAF theories, PANICKED over Trump Republicans, and obsessed with Taylor Swift theories.

this is a man so hollow, pathetic and power hungry that he is actively trying to ingratiate himself with neo-nazi groypers who think he is a race traitor

every billionaire & tech mogul, they all want to be adored & celebrated without doing the things Dolly did with a fraction of the power & money. What she had, she gave away. I'm sure she was comfortable (& that's good!). But she just relentlessly helped. It's not that difficult. Love. Care. Help. 💚🌸

but the nice thing is that you don't have to be rich to do it like you can be the Dolly Parton of wherever you are just by supporting your local library or donating to nonprofits that serve trans kids or putting food in free fridges or wearing a mask when you fly

“Are you okay?” Those were Alex Pretti’s last words before ICE agents beat him, shot him 10 times, and killed him. The Trump administration’s response? Demonize the victim. Deny wrongdoing. Derail the state investigation. No. We are not okay.

Hate to break it to all the bots, but there is no longer such a thing as "mainstream media" in the US. There are some good journalists and editors approaching total burnout, a large ring of freelancers trying to hang on, and a larger group who are either unemployed or now in other professions.

Real question: if the "new economy" requires that every media company of any size has to be cut down to nothing, how will new things be funded and made? Where will the new "intellectual property" come from?

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo called Houston home for 35 years. On Tuesday, an ICE agent shot and killed him. His family learned of his death from a video before anyone bothered to knock on their door.
New York City stands with the Salgado family in demanding a full, independent investigation and real accountability. To the Salgado family and any immigrant family in this city living in fear: we grieve with you and we will continue to stand beside you in the pursuit of justice.
Abolish ICE.

A pro-affordability, anti-Trump-corruption message unites the party. Every candidate can run on that, and every candidate can have their own take to fit that to their constituents. There's really no need to find fights to pick when the party agrees on more than it disagrees

sometimes I just can’t comprehend the number of people (particularly in the Democratic Party) who have failed us. How has it been YEARS of watching the hatred and lying and corruption and somehow the conclusion people come to is “well we can’t do anything other that what we’ve tried”

Ok this is frustrating to me. Why do we keep blaming the voters here. We should be able to trust the news and the govt. how about we start working on making laws that regulate media and govt so we know they can’t fucking lie and can be trusted sources?

I think more Americans should watch these kinds of clips and realize this is all the GOP wants to do. Instead of actually help people, they invent problems and scream at public servants and citizens about and pretend that’s a normal way to govern a country

Willem Dafoe speaking truth in this interview with @mattzollerseitz.bsky.social www.vulture.com/article/will...
question: I feel like the relationship of the audience to movies has changed in the past ten or 15 years. They expect the movie to come to them.

answer: Absolutely. They’d rather go home and turn on their TV and see a film that way. And let’s face it, a certain kind of corruption comes in because people go home and they shop around on these streaming platforms. There’s some good things about the platforms. They create a lot of movies. They create a lot of jobs. But there’s so many distractions that you can’t enter the stuff. People watch five minutes of something and they say, “I’m not really into it” and they go to another thing. “I’m not really into it.” Then another thing. “I’m not really into it.” Then they go to bed.

If you don’t put in the effort, you’re not going to receive much. And the discourse gets lowered, and everything gets a little more dumbed down and then that’s when the ruffians come in, and they’re the ones with energy and stupidity and then they can crush all the thoughtful people. That’s not good for culture, and that’s not good for humanity. We see the results of that all the time.

I’d argue this includes arguments that claim Democrats did poorly in election because “we focused too much on identity politics.” Republicans aren’t the only ones who dog whistle. Further, Dems generally did NOTHING to defend trans people from the onslaught of rhetoric and ads from Republicans.

No Other Land, an account of Israeli destruction of Palestinian homes, is a must-see. A lack of distribution means that's nearly impossible.
