First it was 20 mil, and then there were maybe a few more mil, and now it’s 106 MILLION DOLLARS??? And how many families became homeless last month that would not have if the city wasn’t playing in our faces? So the rich can set up a shelter system that traps people in it but makes them richer??? 🫠🫠

Yesterday I went to one of those ICE observer trainings in a medium sized town nearby (I live way out in the sticks). So many people showed up that they couldn’t fit everyone into the space and some of us had to leave. They’ve gotten a larger venue for the next ones. I did snag some lit & whistles.

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside. What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there? I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

first they came for the billionaires and then they stopped coming, problem solved

turns out when Bezos suggested "democracy dies in darkness" it was a goal, not a slogan

please watch:

“abolish ice and then what?” probably grab a gyro or something, idk

Chuck, I called your office to tell you that NO we want ICE abolished, tear gas banned at all levels of law enforcement, and Trump impeached but your bot said it’s not business hours and I can call some other time to schedule a tour and hung up on me. Couldn’t even be bothered to take a message.

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

Well the Portland Oregon (OR) subreddit has tons of folks claiming the “Head of Antifa” title as of now. Wild when you need to say what state the city is in that’s being attacked by the feds.

Taylor Swift should write an Abolish ICE anthem

if you ever use the word agentic irl we can’t be friends

Liam is home now and we are grateful to @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social for traveling to Minneapolis with him and his dad. Welcome home Liam ❤️❤️

Elsewhere in the US acting shocked that the Feds used extreme violence against a protest crowd in Portland really haven't been paying attention. It was occupied by Trump in 2020 and people were likewise assaulted. But it was OK to blame the violence Antifa rioters then, who apparently deserved it.

i would like to know when we can have diana back

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks. They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

I got tear gassed too. Totally peaceful protest, largely nurses and teachers. Elderly man near me couldn't open his eyes and a woman near me was comforting her baby. Right now I'm still in the OHSU parking garage nearby wondering why nobody seems able to leave... cars not moving at all.

If you were tear-gassed at the union march in Portland today If you have evidence or testimony, NLG is asking that you submit it to them [email protected]

It's hard to overstate how ell-organized the portland march that got gassed was... organizers made the crowd promise to be peaceful, said the march would slow in front of the ICE building but not stop, that we would stick to one chant (ICE Out). They did absolutely everything right and got gassed.

Ocean Beach this morning… just wow!!

A little girl in Portland, OR after being tear gassed by ICE. what the actual fuck.

To be clear, we were thousands of regular folks at an entirely non-violent march that passed by the ICE building. They let loose chemical agents on families with little children. Elderly in wheelchairs. For no reason. The cruelty was the point. Attempting to provoke a riot was the point.

DHS just unloaded a massive amount of teargas on the big labor rally at the PDX ICE facility. Just before this the crowd was chanting "Show us your face!" That turned into cries of "There are children here!"

A big group stopped outside the ICE facility and federal agents dropped several rounds of chemical ammunitions. The crowd leaving the scene was the most chaotic I’ve ever seen it and the gas was the most intense. I don’t know how/why the gassing started.

Huge crowd at Elizabeth Caruthers Park for a labor against ICE protest in Portland. Many different local labor groups represented, speakers saying fighting against authoritarianism and ICE is an important issue for labor to take on.

Absolutely surreal to continue to hear about drawdowns and lowered temperatures and things calming down in Minneapolis when, as far as I can tell, literally nothing has changed on the ground

Redirected aggression occurs when a cat becomes agitated by an animal it can see through a window but cannot reach. It then redirects that intense emotion onto one of its bluesky mutuals.

Waiting for ppl saying it's wrong to verbally protest at a church, to be more outraged about how when ppl who look like them show up to a Black church, a synagogue, temple, etc., it is with a gun and actual violence that results in death.... But go on tell me how come you felt "threatened."

Opinion | To deescalate in Minnesota, Republicans need to stop killing people in the streets, and Democrats need to stop talking about the ones they've already killed.

Brave protesters in Minnesota stopped the country's slide into fascism. So now I can go back to attacking the illiberal left for its woke excesses.

It's incredible how much AI productivity actually looks like this when you scratch below the surface.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

Kristi Noem and Kash Patel are right: Alex Pretti had no right to possess a gun during a protest. What if he had killed someone? by Kyle Rittenhouse

Cops looking out for their ICE buddies

Dear Senate Democrats: Bovino getting shitcanned as a sacrifice does NOT mean you back off on ICE funding.

TikTok let me in without accepting the new TOS after a few times opening the app. Went to profile and deleted the account. Told them why. It texted a 2FA code to the email I set it up with. Deleted the app from the phone. Will miss it. Sorry to have lost Twitter and #TikTok

Resist the urge! It’s gonna be a long weekend y’all! 😂 #WinterStorm #TexasSnow/SleetMageddon

In 2015 I realized I had to get involved in politics and get Democrats elected. In 2025 I realized I have to read every bill and lobby my Dem legislators to vote correctly or they may vote the wrong way, even as they performatively say what consultants tell them we want to hear

The job of Dem leaders is to make it as DIFFICULT as possible for Republicans to pass legislation like this. As the majority, Republicans would have been able to pass the bill eventually without Dems by forcing their members back to DC. Instead, Dem leaders made it EASY for them. That matters.

Love this.

Dammit, tech companies. The only think I need to know about your awesome AI feature is how to turn it off.
