Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power - file impeachment articles every day in the House - withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee - be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

Yesterday, after a mild query by some parents, my daughter’s primary school sent out a notice to say they were going to stop using their X account for comms.

It’s as simple as that. There are plenty of alternatives.

But even if there weren’t you can’t contribute to that.

And it can be as simple as
asking to prompt a change.

“That both DHS and Trump posted false accounts of the shooting even as there are four videos circulating that reveal those accounts to be lies shows they no longer are making any attempt to justify their actions. Instead, they are demanding Americans abandon reality in favor of whatever the administration says. If this works, it would be a demonstration of totalitarian power, the ability to control how people think. Accepting that lie is a loyalty test.”

Every day we see where the politics of Donald Trump and the far right leads.

It's a politics of hate, fear, corruption and destruction.

It's a politics everyone in Scotland must stand unequivocally against, abroad and at home.

Trump and the Republicans are out of control and MUST be removed in 2026. Then all those who have broken the law must be held accountable. It's up to us. We the people. #USPol #Vote #WeThePeople

It appears certain media outlets are publishing disproven claims regarding the shooting in Minnesota today.

In addition to holding agents accountable, and officials who cover for them and publish false reports

We will also hold media members who spread propaganda accountable.

If this doesn't stop now, we will lose Democracy.

If you think I'm exaggerating, look how boldly the White House lied about January 6th

#Blackwater Successor Hunts #Immigrants for #ICE

#ConstellisHoldings, which traces its roots to #ErikPrince’s #mercenary firm Blackwater, landed an ICE contract as a #BountyHunter.

by Sam Biddle
January 3 2026

Excerpt: "#Constellis was formed in 2014 through the merger of #Academi, previously known as Blackwater, and #TripleCanopy, a rival mercenary contractor. The combined companies and their subsidiaries have reaped billions from contracts for guarding foreign military installations, embassies, and domestic properties, along with work for the Department of Homeland Security [#DHS] and U.S. spy agencies.

"Blackwater, founded in 1997 by Erik Prince, renamed itself multiple times over the years after it sparked international scandal for its violent work in #Iraq. In 2007, Blackwater #mercenaries massacred 14 #civilians in #Baghdad; several of its contractors serving prison sentences for the killings were pardoned by President Donald #Trump in 2020.

"Prince resigned as CEO of Blackwater in 2009, and Constellis says it has no relationship with him.

"Though there are no ties between them, Constellis’s move to serve as a bounty hunter for ICE aligns with Prince’s reported interest in privatizing immigration enforcement.

"The government has so far paid Constellis $1.5 million, with the potential for the total to grow to more than $113 million.

"In February, Politico reported that Prince — a longtime and steadfast Trump ally — was among a group of military contractors who urged the federal government to employ a '#SkipTracingTeam' and 'bounty program which provides a cash reward' to incentivize the rapid tracking of immigrants. The proposal suggested that, due to a lack of federal manpower, ICE should deputize private citizens to help track down immigrants."

The thing is: Mastodon is a 100% non-algorithmic timeline. So if there’s something in someone’s feed that they don’t want there, that’s on them. Tend to your garden. 🤷‍♂️

Is this a good time to remind Canadians, the reason "our" newspapers seem to be playing down rhe American Invasion, is because 98% of 🇨🇦 Canadian Newspapers, your newspapers, the big ones, the small.ones are all owned not by a traitorous Canadian, but by an actual United States Republican.

ONE right wing Trumpist owns 98% of Canadian English news.

Ottawa Citizen, Vancouver Sun, all the SUNs, Financial Post, Calgary Herald, Edmonton Journal, etc etc etc.

98%

@Barbramon1 this appears to be the Nazi who murdered her. Don’t see a patch indicating specific agency. They’re all guilty regardless

Edit to add: DHS has confirmed that it was an ICE agent who murdered her

Mother IDs shooting victim

The victim was identified by her mother as Renee Nicole Good, 37.

“Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known,” she said. “She was extremely compassionate. She’s taken care of people all her life. She was loving, forgiving and affectionate. She was an amazing human being.”
