I would have preferred the #WhiteHouse not to be demolished, but if we are going to let the #fascists destroy the #USGovernment and #democracy in general, it is nice to have a tactile metaphor of the wanton damage to point at.
Stating that Trump's rescue mission to save Milei's government from its own inhumane incompetence is of "benefit to almost no one" is one fancy way of saying that Trump, Milei, and their criminal partners are benefiting personally from the alliance. One remains in power, the other steals resources and gains one geopolitical vantage point through control of Argentina's territory.

The annexation of Argentina is contingent on Milei's political success, something which was extremely unlikely to happen before the US intervention. With the US making offers they can't refuse to every argie representative and governor, it's going to be an interesting time to see how instead of Greenland or Canada, Trump ends up seizing a different country on the cheap.
To get started with.

@BlueDot Preemptive blocking is really a bridge too far when it comes to government agencies.
Normally I would agree, but these are not normal times.
When #fascists are in charge, we can expect that all federal agencies are going to spew lies, all the time. We've already seen it from Homeland Security, from the Pentagon, from the CDC, from the White House.
For the same reason I recommend that journalists boycott White House press briefings, I recommend that decent people block those #BlueSky accounts for the duration.
White House and other Trump Fascist federal agencies appear on Bluesky and are immediately widely blocked

BREAKING NEWS: 53,000 brave souls risk life and limb to run more than 26.2 miles through the war-torn streets of Chicago while 1.2 million people just stood there and watched it all unfold.

It is quite something to see Pepe the #frog being reclaimed from the #fascists and the return of #humour in the darkest hours. It is a very well studied historical fact that once humour is injected into #activism (not the "basket of deplorables punch down energy of many liberal TV comedians, no, the real energy of despair🥲 ), then governments are put in a lose-lose bind.
Look up dilemma action if you are interested.

The counter demo at the Dokwerker (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_strike#Remembrance).
A short video from the local media with the nazi's trying to demolish historical #Amsterdam.
⚠️ Image contains a Nazi salute.
Today in Amsterdam approx. 500 #nazis, #fascists, #farRight #hooligans, were marching through the streets of #Amsterdam. They were giving Nazi salutes and were, carrying nazi-flags/banners and yelling 'were is an-tí-fa then (sic)!'
Well, the antifascists had there own counter demo in another place in town (the police didn't want any confrontation). We were with approx. 1000 people! All ages, all genders, all kind of antifascist ideologies.
SIAMO TUTTI ANTI-FASCISTI!

12 oktober Amsterdam: SAMEN TEGEN FASCISME!
De groepen achter het geweld in Den Haag op 20 september hebben een ‘anti-immigratie-protest’ aangekondigd voor 12 oktober om 13.00 op de Dam.
Wij zijn solidair met iedereen die het doelwit is van extreemrechts en fascistisch geweld. Deze mensen zijn welkom in Mokum — fascisten en extreemrechtse hooligans NIET!
Dus ook wij komen samen op 12 oktober in Amsterdam, om 12.30 op het Jonas Daniël Meijerplein, om met een brede coalitie van mensen en organisaties een oorverdovend weerwoord te geven aan de haat die op dat moment wordt uitgedragen op de Dam.
Samen staan we sterk, dus roep iedereen die je kent bij elkaar en doe mee! Het moment om je uit te spreken tegen extreemrechts en opkomend fascisme is NU.

BREAKING: Look at this.
A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning.
30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF.
The market dumped.
The trader made a profit of $192 million
When the #fascists are dislodged, we are going to need a #WealthTax. Trump's cronies getting rich on insider trading is just one more example of why it's necessary.
We need to talk about these hideous flag cones countries have been using for a couple of years now to give the appearance of a waving flag in the background of a conference when filmed from the front
A picture of Anthony Blinken at a press conference of the US Embassy of Jerusalem with almost real looking flags in the background, but since this picture is taken at an angle, one can see that they're cones
A picture of many of the flag cones
A picture of someone applying the Israel flag over a cone with many non-flag cones in the background
A picture of military generals walking out of a room with several flag cones from Italy, Brazil, France, Canada, and Serbia being displayed

I can't keep up with reality, it's clearly beyond satire and taking the piss now: Palantir, whose UK CEO is the grandson of the notorious fascist founder of the British Union of Fascists, and whose Trump-adjacent leader has the knives out for democracy, backs away from key Starmer policy on digital ID cards, fearing *reputational damage* from being associated with something "Too Evil even for Palantir":

FCC Chair Brendan Carr sports a gold Trump-head lapel pin.
Memebers of Trump's cabinet, along with Congresspeople and Senators, are being instructed to wear a tribute to their inglorious, convicted-felon leader.
