Fascist Barbie Noem held back FEMA search/rescue assistance in Texas for 3 full days after flooding began.

Always remember that cruelty and indifference to suffering are, in a big way, what motivates this regime.

A friend asked me recently what makes the #Fediverse such a good place to live digital life.

I had to think about it for a while, but I think it has to do with the fact that we all - in our own way - want to escape the toxic lock-ins of #BigTech, and that this is only possible if others come along.

So I feel that every interaction on the Fediverse - a boost, a favorite, a reply - is by default already a little exchange of mutual thank you's: thank you for contributing to the escape.

OF COURSE climate change deniers would rather pretend nefarious human agency like a "weather control machine" is responsible for specific natural disasters affecting people they care about because otherwise it would be their own fucking fault for being climate change deniers.

The Trump administration announced it is issuing sanctions Wednesday against Francesca Albanese, the U.N. special rapporteur for the West Bank and Gaza, the latest effort by the United States to punish critics of Israel's 21-month war in Gaza. The State Department's decision comes after a recent U.S. pressure campaign to force the international body to remove her from her post failed. FRANCE 24's Fraser Jackson reports from Washington.

FYI - sorry in advance but some people on Fedi appear to be uncomfortable with me talking about people of different colours and/or genders. With the greatest respect; my fam is made up of many types of people of all colours and genders and I'm fine chatting about it. If you're someone who wants to get offended on behalf of a community you're not part of and don't know anything about, I'm not for you. X

Other countries should treat ICE employees the same way they treated the Nazis. They should not allow them to enter their country for any reason, including vacations or work visas. #uspol #ice

I Called Everyone in Jeffrey Epstein’s Little Black Book

What I learned about rich people, conspiracy, “genius,” Ghislaine, stand-up comedy, and evil from 2,000 phone calls

So there was no client list…? yet the mention of dvd’s labeled with people’s names, the confirmation that people were being video taped during sex and matter of fact reporting that he was using all this to blackmail people but #trump now says there was no list, no evidence about #JefferyEpstein ?

A Guatemalan detainee told his wife -he was unable to sleep due to how cold it was inside the tent. By Tues, the same man told his wife that it appeared the AC had stopped working *really hot inside. He was detained while he was a passenger during a traffic stop with FHP.

It was 96 degrees near #AlligatorAuschwitz Tues PM*felt like 105. A humanitarian crisis for detainees & staff: “horrifying conds” re water/temps/hygiene.
Rivaling torturous conditions at CECOT!

I hoped never to see concentration camps like the ones I grew up in appear again in this country. Reading this breaks my heart.

This via @lolgop and is still being added to. I'd boost this a million times if I could:

If you don't think the media can at least try to destroy your image for being a fascist, look at what they did when they discovered that an 81-year-old is old.

Or that a woman used home email at work.

Or a couple lost money on a real estate deal.

Or a candidate for Mayor of New York City is young, Muslim, and didn't get into the school where his dad taught.

Remember: according to Republicans, criticizing Israel is bad, but molesting children is good.
