This is worth a read (or listen). You will not be surprised to learn that Bovino did in fact describe racially profiling people.

Rather than being ignorant or reflexive, this fits perfectly into the grand design of making violence a virtue.

Dude if the Democratic Party has a place for anti-trans and anti-abortion candidates then I’m not a democrat and I won’t vote for one I don’t know what to tell you man, there’s already a political party who believes these things It’s not a “big tent” to have zero fixed values in pursuit of power

In the last two weeks these feds have choked & beaten protesters, broken bones, given people concussions from munitions, pointed their sidearms at people, tear gassed a neighborhood, shot reporters in the face, destroyed neighbors' property, threatened elected officials No National Guard necessary

So many people showing their ass, telling us who they really are (though some had already.)

There are no good-faith anti-trans arguments, only patriarchal power grabs.

He said it didn't work, but it did work, so I give you: Yakety Sax.

Fucking. Monstrous.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

It’s getting real - here comes the cast, starting with a co-lead! I know a lotta y’all love him and you’ll get plenty of great stuff in this show.

We're coming up to that point again - a new show of mine is coming out in two weeks. So if anyone is looking for an interview subject or a guest for a podcast in the next little while... gimme a call?

RE: last repost about recording encounters with ICE. I think it’s great that the governor is encouraging people to take these steps - ALSO we need acknowledgment of the people who have already bravely done so to bring this to public attention in the first place AND that they were often assaulted.

It's really worth pointing out that plenty of folks have already been doing this and have been getting harassed, tear gassed, shot with pepper balls, and arrested for it.

DHS has lied about the circumstances surrounding their killing of Silverio Villegas González, and they’ve repeatedly lied about their overly aggressive attacks on peaceful protesters and journalists. You can add this to the growing list.

We working on verifying and documenting reports of multiple journalists assaulted, arrested and other press freedom violations while they covered U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activities in and around Chicago recently. Here's what we're tracking so far:

Solidarity in taking action works.

Their feelings are very delicate

But don’t call them nazis or gestapo.

Many folks have messaged us about looking into these local PDs working with ICE. Without a paper trail, it is difficult to prove collaboration. What isn't difficult to prove is there's obviously implicit permission; police loyalties always lie with other police. No official welcome mat necessary.

If it’s not clear by now this is Stephen Miller’s ethnic cleansing and racist terrorism project and crime has fuck-all to do with it.

It’s impossible to read the last line without picturing the president sitting with his legs spread out on the floor and revving a Tonka dump truck back and forth. “Mr. President, five days is a ludicrously short timeline to start construction on an as-yet-unplanned facto-“ “FIVE DAYS! Vrrrrrrm!”

ICE detained 2 people outside a NW Side homeless shelter, angering elected officials. blockclubchi.co/4mybnMM

1/ I’m Till Eckert, a ProPublica reporter. For the past 2 weeks, I’ve been going to the same NY immigration courthouse. Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away. Thread 👇

I know it seems laughable to blame trans people for a government shutdown, but it is also deeply worrying how the administration is making every negative thing the fault of trans people. We’ve seen what happens when a small minority becomes the scapegoat of a whole society: a lot of people die.

“It’s tricky because there are not as many images of a bear’s throat as one would think.”

Please note that all the outlets now correcting their narrative re: ICE killing Silverio Villegas González since FPPD body cams have been released initially published the DHS statement now proven to be mostly false. There's never any understanding/admission of harm done. They'll just do it again.

my kid's rights are not window dressing, amd they are not trivial my child is not a "distraction" or a "purity test" and my kid is not an incomprehensible alien your willingness to sell out a disfavored group preemptively is a huge red flag go learn some shit #NeverNewsome

The president is a real estate developer and reality TV star. Here’s what doctors, scientists, and autism experts say about Tylenol and vaccines. When disinformation muddies the waters, @rewirenewsgroup.com floods the zone with truth.

I once spent eight days in the psychiatric care ward of a local hospital. It proved vital to my survival. Had I not been able to go, stay, and get treated there I doubt I’d be alive today. EVERYONE deserves that access. Damn the people who try to profit off of this.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Man, Colin Kaepernick is the real deal, time and time again. A model for all of us, certainly myself. And I’m so glad this is getting an independent review.

Alright then. Honestly, I’m glad we can skip to the inevitable. As much as I abhor the notion of shutting down any government services, I hope the Democrats hold firm and let things go to a shutdown. Make him and the other Republicans concede some ground. Force their hand.

Asked this guy how he felt about choking women today as he stared down at us all from the roof. He proudly declared he likes it.

There is no bottom

You should really take a listen and Get. Hyped.

"I’m free today because of this advocacy,” Soliman said. “Don’t underestimate your voice."

We're 7 months in and Trump and the oligarchs have completely seized control of the media. If you criticize them, your show will be pulled from the air. This is what dictators do. Fascism isn't coming, it's here.

I can’t fucking believe I lived to see pro- and anti-regime Man Show hosts

Solidarity works.

Please chill, "didn't you know ICE was already doing this?" peanut gallery. Chicago has had very low arrest numbers. We've been in a lull since their attempts at immigration court in June. In the last week and a half, they've kidnapped hundreds of people. That we know about.

“Much like when I hoped it was an immigrant who did this. “

Brutal thugs. Every one of ‘em.

With the rampant terror that is ICE commanding the headlines, it’s important to note that other equally horrific things are still happening.

Publishing something this stupid, in the wake of the all-time embarrassment of his "Charlie Kirk Did Politics Right" column, can only mean one thing for Ezra Klein: a longer and even more lucrative career at the New York Times.

Trump did not leave Chicago. He just didn't send the National Guard. Instead, he sent his deportation thugs. And in some ways, that's quite a bit worse.

we've heard about multiple instances in which masked ice agents snatched people from their cars and left them abandoned on the side of the street.

sounds like one target for ice today is the suburb of west chicago today—some 40 miles from the city. state senator karina villa went live on facebook about 20 minutes ago in front of two unmarked vehicles driven by masked agents.

ice spotted in the home depot parking lot in cicero, illinois, per the berwyn cicero rapid response network. agents are reportedly active around cicero avenue. advocates are urging people to avoid the area.

reports already coming in this morning of at least eight ice agents staging in elgin. these were posted shortly after 6 a.m.

If you can't or won't stand up for trans people right now, you are never, ever, ever, ever going to do it and that is something worth knowing about yourself.
