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.

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
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!

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.

This is not to be confused with the shooting of a cop guarding an ICE detention center in Alvarado Texas by a band of literal freedom fighters allegedly attempting to free people inside.

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A 56 yo survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
