@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov You ALL need to read these & have them read allowed to congress.

Read these accounts of ICE in Camp East Montana. Severe beatings resulting in hospital visits, no sunlight for days-weeks, no rec, no phone calls, coercion, punishment in isolation for asking for medication, filthy sanitation, shredding documents. ICE is breaking laws and Congress must act!

These testimonies are beyond horrifying. It is no exaggeration to say the US is committing crimes against humanity. People are beaten, deprived of medications for chronic conditions, deprived of medical care for acute illness, forced to live in filth, given food unfit for human consumption.

Read each of these! Pay Attention! This is not who we are 🤬🤬

It's very hard to read through the testimonies of the prisoners. What is going on is cruel, inhumane and sadistic. There is no way to stop this as far as I can tell until F47 and his entire admin are gone. Then we have much work to do to repair this damage.

Concentration camp prisoners are being beaten, tortured, and denied medical care. The government is concealing the full extent of what is being done and to whom. The people responsible for these camps are committing capital crimes under US law (18 USC 241-242) and we must hold them accountable.

No, I do not trust Tulsi Gabbard. She used to push lies for the "anti-imperialist" left, and now she pushes lies for the Trump administration. It is not a good idea to put political power in the hands of pathological liars.

Here is a collection of sworn testimonies from detainees being held in ICE custody. Until reading these testimonies, I wasn't fully aware of what is happening. Please read them yourself. We need to know this. We need to understand the consequences of ICE/CBP arrests. assets.aclu.org/live/uploads...

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis. snyder.substack.com/p/ethnic-cle...

By all means dislike Chomsky for his Epstein Fan Club credentials but please remember to dislike him for his genocide denialism too.

Research update: WA DOL continues its "roadside assists" to ICE/CBP immigration investigations UWCHR researchers have verified 6 additional cases where WA drivers were arrested by ICE/CBP following a search of WA DOL data, at least 2 of which are confirmed to have been civil immigration arrests.

"It is never safe, it is never democratic, to empower any law enforcement agency to effectively become a secret police—and ICE has been doing that for a very long time." UWCHR's Angelina Godoy joins @inthemeanwhile.bsky.social podcast, listen here:

This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk. Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared. Well, here’s a link: georgetown.box.com/v/Vladeck-IC...

The largest Trump superPAC donor so far this cycle is the president of OpenAI

"Don't forget to add the bit about people only having rights if they agree with what the government is doing."

this is how it’s going to have to be, and how major movements have always been

Worse than Kent State, really than any episode I can think of probably dating back to Reconstruc & earlier b/c 1. continuing, not 1 off. 2. organized, not individual ofcrs losing it 3. literally at hand of federal government, which is 4. immediately lying & circling the wagons to prevent inves.

an administration staffed to the top with degenerate liars

I grew up reading the Washington Post. I spent 12 years working for the Washington Post. I grieve for the Washington Post.

man the stuff i am seeing on IG from the most normie, i don’t really talk about politics accounts suggests something different

Do you honestly think people in the civil rights movement and other nonviolent movements faced no violence themselves? They practiced nonviolence because it works, because the oppressor wants a shooting war, which is the war it will win

Nonviolence is, in fact, working. This administration is weaker than it was a year ago. More and more of the public is becoming galvanized against it; its agents are being impeded.

The montage towards the end hits especially hard. www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_71...

An independent autopsy of Renee Good reveals that she had 3 gunshot wounds: to the left arm, right lung, and left temple that exited the right side of her head. That means the third shot, the most unlawful one, from the side, likely killed her. abc7.com/post/minneap...

Re ICE actrocities in MN, I’ve already said that lately I feel consistently angrier than I’ve ever felt in my long life. But I also feel absolutely heartsick. That poor little 5-year old baby kidnapped, imagining how scared he was… I know many of you feel the same. Love and solidarity to you.

We are off the cliff, folks. 🇺🇸 apnews.com/article/ice-...

Moving to the UK and experiencing the Guardian really altered my understanding of what metrics make good journalism. They do so much more with so much less. I still subscribe.

9/ On the charge of "fear-mongering": #Climate science does not choose alarm as a strategy. The scientific assessment of climate risk has intensified because the evidence has intensified, while global emissions continue to rise. The latest @ipcc.bsky.social report is very clear on this point:

Trump is threatening to invade a peaceful country. He must be removed from office.

Wow.

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.

In 1960 MLK gave a lecture at a small college in the middle of Kansas. Tonight people gathered around the same lectern in the same room to hear a restored recording of the speech, challenging us to remain maladjusted to a society bent on injustice.

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status. Call the GI Bill Rights hotline: 1-877-447-4487

How is it that Americans aren't out in the streets in the millions, marching on Washington and demanding Trump's impeachment, Every. Single. Day.

Congress & the Senate: Do your jobs‼️

Please, call your members of Congress TODAY: bsky.app/profile/jmay...

So, to reiterate, Trump told Norway's PM that he used to care about peace but after not receiving the Nobel Peace Prize he cares about it less and will seize Greenland. "The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland." This is intolerable. He must resign immediately.

Below I paste a message sent by Trump to the prime minister of Norway. This is an emergency. Every member of Congress, Republican and Democratic alike, must demand Trump's immediate resignation. He wants to destroy everything. “Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel

Trump regime daily continues to ignore & violate numerous court orders which is (fascism) & DESTRUCTIVE WHOLE FUCKING STRUCTURE OF OUR FUCKING GOVERNMENT AND SEPARATION OF POWERS AND I AM SO GLAD THAT I didn’t continue poli sci past my BA or go to law school b/c my head would have exploded by now.

JD Vance tells lies whenever it suits his political goals. We know this, because he told us so. "If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do." He said this when challenged about his lies

The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred. It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

This is the freight train of global warming

It's okay, dude. You can bring all your debating skills, your rhetorical polish, your verbal fluency, your masculine swagger. We know, because you've told us, that you tell lies whenever it suits your political objectives. So we know that we have no reason to ever believe anything you say. You can

New Yorkers built a movement around the belief that every family should be able to afford a dignified life. Today, as Governor Kathy Hochul and I mark our commitment to universal childcare, we're proving that a movement of the people can transform how government serves the people.

Using imagery online of the shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, we’ve created an animated sequence which highlights the approximate positioning of officers and vehicles at the scene. The red dot represents the agent who fired the shots. Yellow dots are other agents who arrived at the scene.
