Where’s the "Don't Tread on Me" crowd?

Gonna be honest, I am fully distracted from the Epstein files

Reminder. Here are the House Democrats who crossed party lines and voted to fund ICE. House Democrats who voted to fund ICE: - Tom Suozzi (D-NY) - Henry Cuellar (D-TX) - Don Davis (D-NC) - Vicente Gonzalez (D-TX) - Laura Gillen (D-NY) - Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) - Jared Golden (D-ME)

I’ve mostly stayed silent on MN because I feel I don’t have much I can add and feel our turn (Seattle) is coming up. But we are edging closer and closer to the “________ massacre”, the tragic entirely preventable start of so many revolutions and conflicts including the one that founded the US

FRANKLIN, TN pastor Kevin Riggs changes his profile pic to “ABOLISH ICE” and challenges other Evanglical pastors to do the same. www.facebook.com/share/p/1HZh...

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

Gov. Janet Mills: "If they have warrants, show the warrants. In America, we don't believe in secret arrests or secret police."

Companies helping deport migrants getting huge tax breaks. "The [ATF] report notes that... Amazon, AT&T, Home Depot, Microsoft & Palantir ‘helped ICE track, detain & deport families’ while [saving] a total of $19 billion in... corporate taxes under the OBBBA...’” www.commondreams.org/news/ice-cor...

Is the government setting up re-education camps now?

Face it. ICE HAS ALIENATED AMERICANS by slamming their victims faces into the ground, killing people, wearing masks, not identifying themselves and using “Gestapo” tactics on immigrants & citizens. Americans are resisting, as they should. It is time to defund ICE! Repost if you agree #BlueCrew

Remember when I told you our military will NOT defend the Constitution, and that it will gladly carry out unlawful orders, including shooting American civilians? Yeah…I stand by that. The good leaders have been pushed out.

US Descendants we are, of those who said no. Of those who left. Of those who refused. Of those who fought back. Anger pulses through Our veins. We have rejected much less tyranny from a government gone rogue. Orange is the color of the sunset. Let us prepare for the dawn. SHB 2026

206 House Democrats voted to shut down DHS today. 7 Democrats voted to fund it. That’s like 3% of democrats. Easily fixable. No need to abandon the party over 3%. However, 100% of ICE sucks. Abolish ICE.

This is how you resist. This is how you stand up for what’s right. This is journalism refusing to bend a knee. Show the 5 year old child who was kidnapped. Show the immigrant who was violently pepper sprayed despite being fully restrained. Show it all.

Any agency kidnapping children and violating constitutional rights does not deserve to be funded. This should not be controversial. It is basic decency. #SheShed #Voices4Victory

I really like the new mayor of NYC.

That’s a pretty accurate summary⬇️

📌The thing about Jack Smith's testimony today is that it is easily corroborated because we all watched the attack on TV, including the guy behind it, who did nothing about it for three hours.

If this happened in another country, what would you call it?

I keep seeing posts stating that ICE cannot enter your home or a private business without a judicial warrant. While that is legally correct, in reality ICE routinely violates the law by forcing their way in, often by smashing down doors, before violently assaulting people. Trumpism is fascism.

ICE agents get a reward for everyone they detain, even if they get it wrong Who pays for that reward? The taxpayer. Who pays to keep immigrants in detention unnecessarily? The tax payer. Yet they want you to believe they can’t afford to give you healthcare or food assistance

This Trump thing is taking up far too much of my leisure time.

The Prime Minister of Belgium speaks:

“We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done,” journalist Garrett Graff wrote: “A superpower is [dying by] suicide because the [Republican] Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King. This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.”

THE WOMAN WHO WAS DRAGGED OUT OF HER CAR AND ARRESTED BY ICE SPEAKS OUT… We’ve all seen the videos, but it matters to hear Aliya Rahman say it herself. 📌 She says her treatment in custody was dehumanizing, and that officers completely failed to take her disability seriously.

1. ICE has STOPPED PAYING for medical treatment for its 73,000 detainees ICE has not paid its bills to 3rd party providers since OCTOBER and the situation will likely persist for MONTHS, a Popular Information investigation reveals Meanwhile, critically ill ICE detainees are not receiving care 🧵

Another thing that we all knew and now have proof of is the gun rights advocates were never going to protect us from a fascist authoritarian government, they were going to join it. The good guy with a gun narrative was always BS.

"US Archbishop of the Military Services Timothy Broglio: US military personnel could disobey ‘immoral’ orders against Greenland" www.thetablet.co.uk/news/broglio...

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King. This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

Some of my #MLKDay cartoons.

A lot of people were warning from very early on how dangerous Trump was, e.g., Bandy Lee et al (2017) Most people thought they were being hysterical. Lee got fired from Yale because of her book.

We will ignore the blatant racist whitewashing for a moment. Getting so tired of Evangelifascists. Please separate church from state.

New report from doctors shows the Iranian regime slaughtered 16,500 protesters during the communications shutdown.

Gallego: "We cannot vote for anything that actually adds more money and doesn't constrain ICE ... we cannot keep funding this type of goon squad"
