Finally found this video again, and happy to RT a captioned version. This was one of my absolute favorite arguments in favor of #DefundThePolice from the summer of 2020. @NYCLU's Yusuf Abdul-Qadir explains one way policing often perpetuates disparity. Portland, take note.

First they came for my neighbor and I spoke up. Then they came for me and I was like ahhh, should have been more doing than saying maybe

Right wing freak shows apologizing for supporting Trump after his comments on Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson Megyn Kelly and Alex Jones. A thread 🧵

@Tylergroce Yeah, only domestic corporate adversaries funded by domestic espionage agencies!

I've worked a decent amount in South Texas over the last 15 years, and yeah, this is the first one that I've actually seen. This will become a bigger issue in time. This is actually a major sticking point in China-Canada negotiations when they were threatening to begin importing en masse these Chinese vehicles. They will never be able to be registered in the US. We're not going to let our main foreign adversary use self-driving or assisted driving technology to in detail map all over the United States with ever increasing detail.

Spotted in Laredo Tx. We’ve got a problem.

More people would improve their conspiracy theory game if they'd read Neal Stephenson's Interface.

@ryangrim And now NSPM-7.

The crackdown at universities included expulsions, criminal charges, the actual jailing of students for as little as an oped, new campus rules that made criticizing Israel a punishable offense, the banning even of megaphones at demonstrations…and then Neera “wonders” where the protests went. Such a mystery!

Smoking weed is 95% standing up and dropping shit u had in your lap

@SpeakerJohnson Where is your evidence they want 'illegal aliens' to vote? Same place as your evidence that 'illegal aliens' have voted?

The SAVE America Act is about proof of citizenship to register to vote and using a Photo ID when you do so. Why are Chuck Schumer and Democrats AGAINST this common sense measure? Because they want illegal aliens to vote in our elections.

Shutting down the National Forest Service is fucking insane. What the hell is Donald Trump doing? They’re just stripping the US government for parts like some hedge fund assholes, and people are going to be killed when fire season starts.

The Trump administration has announced it plans to dismantle the US Forest Service. All 10 regional offices are set to close in addition to over 50 research labs.

@ryangrim "your whole economy is a beautiful lie"

“You crash the world/just to buy the dip” What a bar. Looks like 1,000 AI Lego videos are blooming.

@atrupar Apart from the childish surliness, his answer implies he disagrees with the ceasefire. "My boss decided to go with peace and funding Iran's terrorism."

Q: You said the president 'chose mercy.' But you yourself said weeks ago that 'we will give no quarter to Iranian troops.' Do you think your comments may have put American troops at risk? HEGSETH: No. I try to be nice up here, but you did listen to what I said, right? Typical ABC. It was an indictment framed as a question. No, you've had your chance.

@DanCrenshawTX That's a lot of words to say "we all know we can't trust the President of the United States".

A lot of pearl clutching from the usual suspects online and on the cable news panels about “ending civilization.” Take a breath. Let’s do some critical thinking and pretend like we actually know how President Trump communicates. Should he be taken literally? Like you really believe he’s going to vaporize the Persian population? Really? Have you been paying attention the last 11 years? President Trump speaks in terms of POWER, which is the only language our adversaries understand. Carefully worded diplomatic statements make the UN feel nice and cozy but also don’t get anything done. Pay attention to his actions. And so far the actions have left the Iranian military in shambles, their ballistic mission program nearly gone, and their nuclear program nearly destroyed. The President is rightfully prioritizing the need for overwhelming force in order to open the Straits of Hormuz. That’s it. That’s the action we can expect.

@USAmbUN So what about Cuba?

Strait of Hormuz Strait of Malacca Strait of Bab el-Mandeb Strait of Gibraltar Bosporus Strait Lombok Strait Sunda Strait Bering Strait Strait of Mozambique Luzon Strait Korea Strait No country gets to hold the world hostage for leverage just because they happen to sit next to a Strait. Not Iran. Not anyone.

I feel like the oil market has already crossed the point of no return, regardless of how this war plays out. At first this wave just swallowed up everything East of Suez. We saw force majeures popping up all over Asia and premiums going through the roof. But now the Atlantic wall has officially crumbled. Only oil nerds like us are checking this stuff lately, but seriously—just look at the North Sea Platts window and the USGC diffs. This is nowhere near normal. I know some ppl are getting all hyped up every time a single Handy tanker or LPG carrier squeaks through Hormuz, even claiming there’s a secret fleet of tankers slipping through. I highly doubt it. If supply was actually fine, Atlantic physical diffs wouldn't be screaming like this. These numbers only happen when you're hitting a massive supply shock. Like some of smart guys have noted, once you pass a certain threshold, it doesn't even matter if Hormuz reopens—the logistical bottlenecks will make it impossible to absorb the shock anytime soon. I’m pretty sure we’ve already crossed that line. #oott #iran

@greendragonhq congress.gov/119/bills/hres…

The threat itself is a violation of IHL, incorporated into the U.S. DoD's Law of War Manual under 10.5.3.2: "Collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or of terrorism are prohibited." And, if carried out the way he makes it sound --> genocide

This is a threat of genocide and merits removal from office. The President’s mental faculties are collapsing and cannot be trusted. To every individual in the President’s chain of command: You have a duty to refuse illegal orders. That includes carrying out this threat.

@ClayTravis His 'hyperbolic comments' today are literally a war crime.

Donald Trump has made hyperbolic comments as part of negotiation tactics for a full decade, especially on social media, and yet people still run around like insane people reacting to his posts on here. I truly don’t get it.
