Makes my soul feel good to see this kind of protest activity pissing off the bad guys. Although I'm half expecting some attempt to outlaw these frog costumes in the near future. #politics #protests

Three people dressed in large, inflatable frog costumes stand together at night, holding a sign that says “FROGS TOGETHER STRONG” with an illustration of two frogs shaking hands. The scene appears to be lively and humorous, likely part of a public event or protest

THE NATIONAL
THE NEWSPAPER THAT SUPPORTS AN INDEPENDENT SCOTLAND
HOW GENOCIDE HAPPENED
"No Arab will remain in Gaza❞
"No-one must inhabit this land if it is not the Jewish people"
"Israel should make Gaza look like Auschwitz museum"
"I am for war crimes, I don't care if I'm criticised"
"Aid trucks continue to enter Gaza... enough!"
"We are too humanitarian. We have to burn Gaza now"
"It's not Hamas that should be eliminated. Raze Gaza"
"Without hunger and thirst among the Gazan population, we will not succeed in recruiting collaborators"
"It is an entire nation out there that is responsible. It's not true, this rhetoric about civilians not being involved❞

FOUR-PAGE SPECIAL REPORT
As Israel continues to deny genocide in Gaza after the ceasefire, we publish the damning words - from the country's own prime minister, press and more-that show how atrocity came to pass

"Asking rents in Canada fell two per cent year-over-year in January to an average of $2,057, marking the 16th consecutive month of annual rent decreases.'

I handle my stress by making shitty memes

Jonathan Ross handles his stress by shooting you in the face

#ICE #Minneapolis #Minnesota #Politics #USPol #USPolitics

“Notejak / Soyjak Extending a Note” meme but with the wojack drawn to resemble Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who murdered Renee Nicole Good, extending a note that reads “My name is Jonathan Ross, I disobeyed DHS Policies on the Use of Force* V§A(2), VI§A(2)(a), & VI§B(2)(a) and murdered Renee Nicole Good by standing in front of her car and shooting her in the face *Policy Statement 044-05” through the driver's side window of a car in a snowy Minneapolis suburb. A crudely drawn sign that reads “JONATHAN ROSS (the murderer)” stands right behind Jonathan Ross, with an arrow pointing at the murderer of Renee Nicole Good.

Wag the Dog, #Venezuela: #Democrats Must Relentlessly Expose #Trump

Rep Seth Moulton & Sen Ruben Gallego are leading the way responding to Trump’s unconstitutional, int #war crimes

But Venezuela, #ICE, #Epstein, tariffs, Trump’s billionaire-fluffing, are all of a piece. So the broader narrative goes like this

The result of a consistent and total substitution of lies for factual truth is not that the lie will now be accepted as truth and truth be defamed as a lie, but that the sense by which we take our bearings in the real world—and the category of truth versus falsehood is among the mental means to this end—is being destroyed.

“There’s this veneer of respect for privacy that is painted over all of this data aggregation and consolidation.”

Our latest from Francesca D'Annunzio is presented in partnership with the Pulitzer Center. https://www.texasobserver.org/texas-police-invest-tangles-sheriff-surveillance/
