@whitehouse-47.bsky.social White nationalists and maggots like Andrea Lucas (EEOP Commissioner) who claim discrimination against white people are mediocre losers who can’t compete with excellence from melanated peoples.

“I am political,” Ms. Rachel told me of her new effort to free kids from ICE detention.
“It’s political to believe that children are worthy of love … and that our care shouldn’t stop at what we look like, our family, at our religion, at a border. Mr. Rogers was very political.”

Homan is using the TSA crisis that the Trump administration caused as a pretext to install ICE agents in airports. It was never about airport security. Its about expanding ICE territory.

It’s apt that Trump installed a statue of Cristopher Columbus at the White House. Trump is lost and bumbling his way around the globe, destroying whole civilizations without understanding what he’s doing, too.

Meta adding face recognition technology to its smart glasses would violate the privacy rights of millions of people and cost the company billions of dollars legal battles. It should abandon its plans. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
Seven Billion Reasons for Facebook to Abandon its Face Recognition
Meta’s analysis that it can avoid scrutiny by releasing a privacy invasive product during a time of political crisis is craven and morally bankrupt. It is also dead wrong.

The number of trans youth suicides in the UK quadrupled in 2021 following significant restrictions in access to care. The NHS tried to cover this up with a fake report that tried to hide the truth.

@washingtonpost.com the NYT reported that you’re slashing hundreds of jobs and whole sections of the WAPO. The conservative turn in the editorial board has a lot to do with the paper’s downfall. Most conservatives are big readers. Everyone else wants a paper with intelligent, well-informed editors.

Some of the sociopaths who signed up to work for ICE are beginning to see that the grifter-in-chief is stiffing them, just like he cheated contractors & employees across the US. Maybe they’re realizing that he made out by underpaying his immigrant employees or that Melania broke immigration laws.

How can you “come to a deal” with Trump and the GOP over DHS spending? Unless your deal includes a hard stop to ICE and CBP enforcement around the country, you’re morally bankrupt. Apologists for fascists. Greasing the wheels. Just pretending. Incurably out of touch. Dead as a party.

European heads of state appeased and praised a clearly autocratic Trump and now they are shocked at his behavior. They watched in silence as he eviscerates all democratic institutions in the US, concerned only to limit their losses. Trump will not stop at Greenland. He does not care about Europe.

So much wrong with this but…they sold his phone?!? Like, for profit?? Now ICE can just confiscate and pawn your property???
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.
A citizen.
Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.
"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.
Agents took and sold his phone
And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

This is the part where the international community bands together to hold Trump accountable for war crimes, crimes against humanity, shielding pedophiles, raping and maligning women, and really poor taste in interiors and personal grooming. The world will be better off without him in power.

ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.
