      What?

      Why?

      If ayone convinced it was the CEOs of Nvidia and Salesforce, and their argument likely started with a $…

      I’ll never understand why people are so quick to give credit to billionaire neoliberals for everything that happens. Like, I know there’s a big propaganda push so that they can win the presidency and claw back the DNC out the people’s hands if they win the general…

      My confusion is how the fuck people keep falling for it.

      You all forget how Newsom already tried to pivot to MAGA?

          They just don’t want the headlines scaring off workers, they’re fine with the human rights violations…

          Shits still going wrong out there:

          Tensions flared early Thursday morning as protesters attempted to block U.S. Border Patrol agents from entering a U.S. Coast Guard base near Oakland that the Trump administration was staging as an operations hub for an anticipated immigration crackdown on the Bay Area.

          One protester was injured shortly after sunrise as several federal law enforcement vehicles, including one marked Border Patrol, passed through the crowd stopping traffic onto the island. “Once we start, we won’t stop,” one agent told the protesters blocking his vehicle.

          During the fracas, federal agents deployed apparent flash-bang grenades to disperse the crowd and fired a pepper round that struck a clergyman near the chin. The impact caked his face and clothing in orange powder.

          The clergyman, Jorge Bautista, said an agent shot him in the face with the projectile from about 5 feet away.

          “I’m in a lot of pain,” Bautista texted the Chronicle from an emergency room in Oakland. “He clearly was aiming for the face.”
