ICE are nasty ass child kidnappers, like after school special style

The reason cities don't have public bathrooms is they hate the homeless. So it's also good for Zohran to be doing public bathrooms to show homeless New Yorkers they're home too.

Smart people keep saying that the "military is at least more professional than the police" and, um, during the 1992 rebellion in Los Angeles, Marines shot up a house just for funsies?

This is who voted against establishing DHS

“Significant reforms” “rein in” “dramatic change” Dont get too attached

Brian is being incredibly restrained, since City Journal is quite literally blaming domestic violence survivors for their victimization and the downstream effects on their housing:

And a lot of our reps were there, voluntarily.

the reason seemingly every ordinary person in minneapolis is involved in some way is that it's inescapable! they sent so many goons that you functionally cannot live your life normally ignoring what's going on, because at some point they're going to fuck with you, your friends, or your neighbors

THREAD. Having just written a book about this and talked to a LOT of Democrats, I can assure you that neither Cory Booker nor the policing industry he’s advertising think that more money for ICE “training” and tech would address any problem that any person of good will has with what ICE is doing.

If he actually changed his mind then obviously that’s good but less than a year ago he was saying those taken to CECOT aren’t worth Dems attention because it’s bad PR so maybe wait more than a single CNN clip to see if he’s going to change his position re: his voting record and legislation.

The bipartisan position it seems

People will do literally anything to avoid saying the American left was right

Uh UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHMMMM

Fuck Cop City, coming to a park near you sooner than you know

That David French NYT op-ed people are raving about is the problem with white punditry. Talking about the Nazi dual state without ever mentioning that Nazis learned from white America and its treatment of Black people. Jesus Christ it is painful waiting for y'all to catch up

betraying the hospitality of your host is the kind of stuff that human societies since the dawn of time have regarded as among the deepest evil humans are capable of. this is a degree of evil that people too ancient for us to even know their names would recognize. yet booker & schumer do nothing

this is the sickest shit ive ever seen

"we don't want people thinking Democrats are for open borders" I am! who gives a shit!!! my life has been immeasurably improved by the presence of immigrants in my community, regardless of their status, there is literally no downside there! why would I give a shit!!!!

Renee Good, they are increasingly stopping this observation, breaking car windows and pulling observers out, in one case unconscious, merely for watching what they are doing. The country should be alarmed they won't stop with us - but know that while this is traumatizing to any good person you know

Have helped guard a local mosque during their Friday prayers. Been very cold but Somali restaurant offers us delicious, warm tea constantly. Members expressed much gratitude & confidence this ugly time will pass.

I'm sure everyone will be SHOCKED to hear that the videos do not show the whole "people came out and attacked ICE with snow shovels" thing that ICE claimed was what happened. This was not a remotely defensive gunshot.

If you work for ice please understand that your kids will laugh at a character based on you dying in an action movie before the end of the decade. They’ll be in movies for really little kids. Like Phineas and Ferb shit. There will be an action figure of you with a detachable head

The neo-fascist group Patriot Front is building a network of businesses in North Texas in an attempt to create a parallel, self-sufficient white nationalist economy. The Observer identified the men behind 4 of these companies.

It’s like there’s a Dead Sea scroll where liberals will unlock the best policing that will definitely work this time. What are they even talking about.

It was a time. Defund was in fact the basement and it was wild that folks couldn't stand by the clear DEMAND. Here we are now with a policing apparatus more funded and powerful than ever in US history. Congratulations to everyone.

Top tier notes from the 4th most Trump friendly Democrat in the Senate.

Downtown Minneapolis currently— Jake Lang and a handful of other racists/RW propagandists are surrounded by about 50 cameras and some antifascists chanting him down. A banner the group arrived with has been broken.

Also "if you're explaining, you're losing" just shows how little they think of the people they are asking to vote for them "We know you guys are too stupid to understand things, so here are some vague platitudes."

Yep. ⤵️ And every "reform" they suggest - from "training" to body cams to fucking QR codes just gives more money to ICE that they'll use to continue terrorizing and murdering people. "Reforms" are a generally a scam to FUND ICE.

Thank you . People hate the idea of this because it means that them being bystanders actually has consequences

ICE raids are not the first time this was made explicit. I think people downplay how much Jim Crow was not just about controlling Black people but it was also about controlling white people. If you thought racism was dumb and acted that way you could end up with a bomb in your home

I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"

Who could possibly be calling them and saying to give any LE money at this point? And yet my rep (D, CA-45 ) Derek Tran cant keep a boot out of his mouth for 24 hours. Like I am sure there are at least a couple on this website but seriously? “How little can we get away with doing here?” Pathetic

Also please be aware that Cortez Masto wants to ruin this plan by redirecting ICE funding to local law enforcement. Tell your reps NO. Local law enforcement is COLLABORATING WITH ICE. They must get NOTHING. nevadacurrent.com/briefs/after...

Disablism and white supremacy are inextricably intertwined.

This makes me feel more patriotic than the national anthem ever could

“don’t take the bait!!!” THEY’RE PEOPLE BEING TERRORIZED BY ARMED FEDERAL AGENTS, NOT TROUT

Perfect a time as any to note that there are currently 3 candidates running against Mark Warner in this year's Dem primary. The primary is set for June 16th. Campaign sites for the candidates are in the alt text.

Hey, people are permanently losing their eyesight at some of these protests and have been for some time. These people, the ones that have put their bodies on the line, are among the people who would benefit from your usage of alt-text when posting protest related imagery.

Angie Craig is now arguing for the brilliant reform of ... making ICE wear body cameras. Angie, Jonathan Ross filmed himself killing a woman on his own phone and released it to the press.

Democrat leaders looking for "creative ideas" to fight ICE, I've got a crazy one called "go outside to where the shit is actually happening."

This isn't housing policy per se, but in a city where infant care averages $26k a year, universal child care would function as a massive, de facto housing subsidy—freeing up roughly $2,100 a month for rent. More politicians need to grasp this: when it comes to "affordability," it's all connected.

it actions like this that make people, especially gen z, despise the democratic party. what are we doing here

It is darkly fitting that the public school one of the most enduring and salutary accomplishments of Reconstruction is being dismantled in this era of new Redeemers.

To Dem elites, nothing is as important as converting blue-collar white Christians - especially men. And they’ve decided that those men care most about cost-of-living issues, and think “abolish” anything is radical. So Dems keep kayfabe and say ICE just has a few bad apples and needs training.

in case you didn't understand why transphobic rhetoric worried us so much about this guy, well it's because it's a signal that shit like this is coming next.

Hey everyone, got a request from a RSM (Rancho Santa Margarita) community member, they're asking for people to show up for their Jan. 28th city council meeting at 7pm to denounce their mayor for saying he would "proudly stand with ICE." (the comment is at 36:45)

Multiple people have been taken this morning already in Northeast and we don’t have the same capacity on the streets that we’ve had throughout the week. Please come out and help us today and bring a friend we need more people outside so we can protect our neighbors.

damn -- CNN put together a video of Kristi Noem claiming ICE officers are "highly trained and skilled" and "gifted" alongside to a clip of them beating someone nearly to death in Minneapolis
