icymi, customs and border protection brought two pickups, a handful of suvs, two armored trucks, dogs, and the secretary of homeland security to a residential street an hour away from chicago for a predawn raid where agents broke down a house's front door and detained a u.s. citizen.

I’m gonna keep a running thread called “Washington Post transforms into USA Today”

The reason affluent media people are such suckers for “civility” is that the actual content of most politics has no real stakes for them personally. If you want to find these people’s true political feelings, mess with their money.

Willian Gimenez was abducted by ICE yesterday in Chicago. He had been part of a lawsuit against off-duty police and Home Depot employees for abusing day laborers. Latino Union says he was targeted for advocating for his rights as a worker. @bloomekatz.bsky.social and I report.

"Climbing out of the hole that we are in will require shifting that underlying balance of power away from the oligarchs and their allies, and back towards the rest of us." Read @hamiltonnolan.bsky.social's latest assessment of the struggle.

The right wing will attempt to address this issue by funneling immigrants, prisoners, snd/ or other oppressed groups into forced labor. Watch

Since 9/11 the main use of the word “terrorism” has been as a blanket justification for atrocities and the world would be a better place if we stopped using it. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/retire-the...

Seriously, @hamiltonnolan.bsky.social is SO damn good.

Fun fact: Nancy Mace is trying to censure me over comments I never said.   Her res does not contain a single quote from me because she couldn’t find any.   Unlike her, I have routinely condemned political violence, no matter the political ideology.

ICE claimed the father tried to hit them with his car or that he "dragged" one of the agents. Then bystander video was released showing this was completely false. ICE executed a man on the street in broad daylight.

The spreading of the trans lover/roommate bs throughout mainstream media, even outlets considered liberal, with no fact-checking whatsoever is a scary escalation of the anti-trans propaganda machine.

It's amazing, nothing you said here is right. Shooter was farther to the right than even Kirk was (and was a Nick Fuentes stan), and Kirk was outspokenly anti-trans, he just used phrases like "I'm not anti-LGBTQ, but..." and everyone knows nothing before the "but" matters.

Any news organization with a shred of decency would fire Brian Kilmeade immediately. There is no gray area about this.

The fact he wasn't fired for this shows exactly just how asymmetric everything in the media is right now. He was literally advocating mass murder and said "just kill them."

Murder is wrong. Pogroms are wrong. Using a murder to incite a pogrom against a small and vulnerable group in society is wrong. (If I’m not mistaken, an assassination was the excuse for the wave of mob but state-sanctioned violence in Russia in 1881 that gave us the term “pogrom.”)

It feels so fucking insane to be scolded about how leftists need to tone down our rhetoric while the world's richest man endorses this shit

A cis man murders someone and Elon is still blaming trans people and pathologizing our existence. He wants us all dead because he couldn't accept his trans daughter.

We are at the point in the honoring-Charlie-Kirk's-memory cycle when faculty are being fired for posting, without comment, Charlie Kirk's words. At the behest of politicians sworn to uphold the first amendment, and in public institutions covered by first amendment protections.

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

I can't make it any clearer that these people want us eradicated. They're angry that there hasn't already been mass violence against us. They want a Kristallnacht where LGBTQ orgs, queer bars, and gender clinics are burned to the ground just like the Nazis they take inspiration from.

They're going to keep going until they get trans people killed. They want trans people murdered en mass.

The right-wing UK media ecosystem is so emboldened with promoting ‘gender critical’ transphobic brain rot that it’s now publishing made up trans-hostile opinion pieces (written by an LGB Alliance Director) using massive false equivalence to jam “trans” with any horrible thing they can find! 😖
