fuck you. FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU. THEY KIDNAPPED A BABY TODAY AND USED HIM AS BAIT TO KIDNAP HIS FATHER. ABOLISH THE FUCKING DEMOCRATS.

If we can defund the dept of education and cancer research and dept of ‘get rid of fucking carp from Great Lakes,’ we can defund ICE and the DHS.

They are defunding and abolishing everything from cancer research to invasive species elimination in the Great Lakes to this. And they’re doing it with hardly a whimper of protest from the same Ds that are boo hooing about we can’t defund ICE, let’s trying making them wear cameras instead.

she mentions it in passing but look up 'Starlight Tours', this is a method Canadian police have used to kill indigenous men for decades

The entire American media apparatus as well as both parties have spent the last two decades saying this is good and normal treatment of Palestinian people and my whole life as stenographers of police narratives to justify the open and unpunished murder of black people here. We’re already there

Holy fucking shit this is awesome use this now cybernews.com/security/dev...

The alternative is all of us accepting that the government exists as a plaything for depraved sadists and people maddened by greed. I don't see the consent of the governed lasting too long under those circumstances.

The crimes-- against law, but more importantly, against humanity-- are just too overt, too well-known, too well-publicized. This nation is going to have to look itself in the mirror in some very difficult ways, and that process will have to be formalized.

There's no moving forward as a country without a cleansing moral fire. There is going to need to be a leadership that embraces that reality, whether Dems like it or not

the "kidnap a significant international star" fuck-up happened a little sooner than i expected

Incapable of understanding how "abolish ICE" was silly but arresting 5 year olds is public policy

right now the floor for me is abolish ICE and put every agent on trial and the average elected democrat is like what if we told them to cut it out

The median position edged closer to "burn every ICE facility to the ground" tonight.

when you give 75 billion to local cops rather than ICE this is who you’re giving it to

this isnt about prejudicing one national history or another, or denial or ignorance about this country's reprehensible past and present, it's about the literal textbook specificity of these depravities

it's this kind of shit that makes me insist on the specific accuracy of the Nazi comparisons, these people arent being treated like property theyre being treated like vermin

Many of us spend our daily lives trying to find safe places to pee. I hope these perambulating dumpsters never find a welcoming restroom.

The scene in Brainwyrms where the terf club murders a pick-me trans woman and then has sex with each other is how I imagine the New York Times editorial board will react to world war 3.

Trafficking the boy after using him as bait, pinning someone in the snow to spray into their mask, shooting Marimar Martinez, murdering Renee Good—Bovino and Miller are asserting the right to harm anyone they want. The only acceptable response is to make sure they can no longer harm anyone at all.

warming centers in milwaukee!

Note to be fair: Hakeem Jeffries *is* voting against the bill to fund ICE tomorrow. He's House Minority Leader ofc so I think he actually might have the ability to do more than vote individually against a bill, and it's not clear he's exercising that ability. But I guess he's voting against a bill

"Their big proposal was everything would just sorta naturally correct itself toward a good state if we could get everyone to think about what was happening in terms of 'abundance'."

Someday I'm going to have to explain to a younger person this moment in time, the jackboots, and they'll ask "what were the Democrats doing during all this?". And I'll take a deep breath and say "they attempted to reframe the debate away from culture war issues and focus on the idea of 'abundance'."

hey, maybe this time we'll actually hang them! anything is possible

the american track record of actually punishing people like this is not great

i'm way less scared of civil war ii erupting than i am of absolutely nothing changing as things get worse and worse & the entire media apparatus pivots to pretending that using 5-year olds as bait to try and lure people out of their houses before also arresting the 5-year olds is normal

If you have read even a single history of fascism, you are already aware that one thing that its rise has in common in every case is an opposition party that refuses to intervene for fear of looking weak or putting the left into power

Given the last 30 years of history I would respect the institution of the nyt if they all committed ritual suicide together

if it’s too difficult for any single person we’ve elected to congress to say, “not one dime for the child stealers”…

Nazism has once again taken the technologies of violence practiced on indigenous people and Black people in the US, and re-applied it for the purpose of mass killings. Cops have done starlight tours since they got cars. The right time to stop this has been every time. It is right to stop it now.

I realize this became kind of impolite to say for the last four years, but we shouldn't have kids in cages.

Greg Bovino is out here in a green trench coat sieg heiling to his “troops” who are all out to hunt human beings by race and Corey Booker et al still doing close up videos of their concerned faces acting like the issue is body cams & “oversight” and too little training.

the 3D printers making whistles now are the modern equivalent of the ladies from WWII sewing flags and uniforms for the war effort

I'm not Jewish and to be totally frank I don't really care about people invoking their identity when trying to deflect from the substantive policy issues like, you know, your voting record in Congress, but what's with non-Jews doing this as if they're Jewish lol

Apparently Mike Lawler is accusing the Institute of Middle East Understanding Policy Project of trafficking in antisemitic tropes by releasing a cable ad about his votes for funding military assistance to Israel Lawler is an Irish-Italian Catholic

Pleased to see that the Working Families Party in New York asks candidates seeking endorsement if they would support two cornerstone pieces of legislation designed to restrict and curtail military assistance to Israel, and whether or not they'd support Tlaib's reso to recognize the Gaza genocide.

guy whose nation has spent the last 50 years employing a bit of a "boys will be boys" approach to distinguishing noncombatants at weddings in the middle east: "i cant believe youd say americans who dislike trump suck too"

From Brooklyn Navy Yard to Hudson River Park Trust, all contracts that allow ICE to operate or do business on city-owned land must be terminated. Our city cannot and will not be complicit in the Trump administration’s kidnapping of our neighbors.

Anne Frank shit. Good job Biden for not locking him up. Good job Dems for passing budget after budget giving ICE and DHS more money. They won because you're weak just like they always said. The voters are not weak. But Dems are.

abolish ice but also the entirety of DHS. They were founded in the xenophobia/kleptocracy patriot act spree of 2002 and never should have existed to begin with.

The memo cites no legal authority, only a further secret DHS's General Counsel (replaced in the early days with a Trump loyalist) opinion saying administrative warrants filled out by an ICE officer are sufficient to break into homes of people ordered removed. Here's what such a warrant looks like.

Chillingly, the whistleblower says that ICE trainers were directed (no paper trail?) to train all of ICE's new recruits that these administrative warrants authorize breaking into peoples' homes, even though DHS's own training materials still make clear that's illegal!

ICE secretly told its officers that any time someone has been ordered removed, ICE can break down their door. It has been accepted for generations that the only thing which can authorize agents to break into your home is a warrant signed by a judge. No wonder ICE hid this memo!

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

It is time to choose between socialism and barbarism

Hung a guy at Nuremburg for doing this, FYI. Not "a thing like this" but literally this, exactly.

I recognize all the guys gunning for Iran from the last war and half of them from the one before that. Why do they call it the Imperial Core and not the Marvel Colonialism Universe? .

Gotta watch video and it'll blow your mind that anyone in power on our side can sit and watch this happen and do zippo. They're all weak and scared and can't do the job. They're forcing taxpayers to defend themselves. That's not the job of the taxpayer.

'Retraining' I I say as a fucking idiot who hates my fellow Americans. How many people in MSP saying retrain? This is gonna be YOUR neighborhood soon as Chuck and Hakeem pass that shit on through

Real talk who is their constituency here. The voters want it. The hotels and agribusinesses exploiting undocumented labor either lean gop or split it 50/50 for security's sake. Who is in their ear besides themselves?
