I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does. Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision. We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore. This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

This says it and it’s exactly what it is….

“I followed the rules. I’ve done great in the community. I’ve never abused any of the conditions of the stay or of my supervision…I’m so scared, I cannot go back." ICE brutally detained a minister in Vermont. Now, the Trump administration wants to send him back to Uganda, where he was tortured.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley. Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo. Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles. Get them out!

This should be a bigger story. A Reagan-appointed judge just ruled Trump’s Energy Secretary illegally ran a secret panel of climate deniers to cook up a biased report and sabotage clean air rules.

Next time Kaitlyn Collins gets to question Trump, she should ask, "How many children have you raped?" and then smile.

The average public school in the U.S. has 500 students. ICE is currently detaining over 7 schools' worth of children, many of whom are being held in inhumane conditions. Children do not belong in government detention.

The popularism argument would have had us counting these people out. What it misses is that people want to DO something. And if Dems are too busy reading polls to lead, people will be brave on their own and lead each other.

This is one of the most important cases that galvanized Black people in the late 40s through the 1950s. Almost every major Black leader had a comment about it. It is also one of the most successful defense committees that was organized in the 20th century. Almost no one knows about it today.

I don’t ask a lot from y’all in exchange for spending thousands of dollars a year to give the public free court records. Please share this piece far and wide.

Imagine if there was a murder in broad daylight. On video. And the killer got away. There’d be a nationwide manhunt. The U.S. government knows who killed Alex Pretti. They won’t say. And they’re actively hiding the suspect(s).

Again, these are the kinds of lies that the South African apartheid-era police told journalists and judges when they murdered activists like Steve Biko.

For Liam.

One prong of Trump’s 2020 coup attempt was telling DOJ to lie about investigation and evidence: “Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen.” Thwarted by top DOJ officials threatening to resign en masse and go public.

this is a straightforward impeachable offense for trump, vance, rubio and every other person down the line who enabled it and the framers would have thought impeachment for it did not go nearly far enough

Law enforcement officers have always been unmasked in this country until ICE started wearing them last year. *That* is the departure from norms. *That* is the step too far.

The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

Liam himself is five goddamned years old and should be at home with an adult he trusts right now no matter who his parents are. It would not matter if they were literal criminal masterminds, Liam Ramos is a baby and babies do not belong in prison.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Death toll in Afghanistan when NATO answered the US’s call: - 453 Britons - 158 Canadians - 89 French - 59 Germans - 53 Italians - 44 Danes - 17 Spaniards “Stayed a little back, off the front lines “! No one in the media will call him out over this lie or any of the others he spouts.

It has not been lost on me that the two preeminent contemporary uses of LLMs is the infinite generation of 1) CSAM and 2) media that serves no purpose other to publicly denigrate, humiliate, and dominate women and minorities.

Trans rights are human rights. We will never stop advocating for the rights of LGBTQ+ individuals. Everyone deserves the right to safe, affirming and inclusive environments in which to learn or work. #TransRights #LGBTQRights

He didn't "seem to" do it. He did it, repeatedly.

Even after Trump is gone, the world will remember that he threatened to forcibly seize the territory of a peaceful democratic ally, and our institutions failed to immediately remove him. That makes US dangerously unreliable, not just one senile gangster.

This effort to curry favor by acting like an insult comic will be forgotten within the Trump administration in a day, but will make headlines and be remembered for decades in the countries being insulted.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

This is literally what I've been writing and podcasting about for years. I was planning to do an essay on this, but here's a 🧵. The main reason is psychology. Due to personal, family, and cultural histories, some people are inherently scared of the world.

“ICE agents, get out now because historically, this ends with you hanging from a lamppost and your body paraded through the streets.” - the …we rate dogs guy

If anyone was still pretending this isn’t just about excluding trans kids from public life, the Trump administration just opened a Title IX investigation into a Maine school district because a trans student is on a *co-ed* cheerleading squad.

I'm sorry, Appeasement Democrats, but we already tried your way. Working to hide Trump's malfeasance from the public, sanding off as many rough edges as possible, working to avoid confrontation under the theory that he wants confrontation, then trying to move on as if it didn't happen failed. Badly.

The NYT has a new video analysis of Renee Good's shooting which is careful, accurate, and clear - he walked across the path of a moving car, then leaned in and shot her with his feet well clear of the vehicle. 1/

Every example of ai being useful begins with "okay imagine you're in a situation, and you are very dumb"

Murdering a wife and mother. Abducting a baby and giving it a bruise on the cheek. Flashbanging a car full of kids, including a 6 month old. They better fucking hope we only stop at “Abolish ICE”

No! The criticism of the Dems isn't that they never win elections, it's that they don't use power to solve the problems that got us here. Elite impunity, concentration of wealth, the unitary executive. Winning is only step 1

Unarmed woman executed by state may have been on committee to fight against unarmed women being executed by the state

How, again, are Dems supposed to negotiate with the Rs on the 2026 fiscal year budget (already 3.5 months late) if Trump has no intention of honoring the deals negotiated and laws passed?

Leftists address this constantly. We advocate for universal health care and child care, guaranteed pensions, decommodified housing, and all kinds of other things that would directly address these issues. What we don't do is say "more white babies" which is what is really being asked here

Can we maybe stop appointing his judges and funding his government now

*Ahem*, and Lol

10 years ago “Border Patrol agents have deliberately stepped in the path of cars apparently to justify shooting at the drivers and have fired in frustration at people throwing rocks from the Mexican side of the border”

Some important new government policy that Native Americans might be interested in:

before murdering renee good, the ice goon was frightened for his life, we’re told It’s meant to justify the murder nobody telling us this ever seems to wonder whether the woman who was murdered might have been afraid for her life killing because you’re afraid is only for cops, it seems
