When you live in a fascist shithole...

Absolute shithole country

Ask yourself. If ICE is going door to door, what’s next? Armed federal agents took a man away in handcuffs. A woman came out of the house and said the man was her husband. It also appears ICE used an administrative warrant, not a judicial warrant. That matters….

UPDATE: Rep. @aftynbehn.bsky.social says she will NOT run for Congress again, instead running for her state house seat She says violent rape and death threats during her campaign played a part in her decision (as Trump supporters attacked her constantly)

This appears to be the man in Michigan who created the fundraiser. I've asked him how people can be sure he will be giving the money to Ross's family.

Is It Good Politics to Defend a Harmless Woman Getting Shot in the Face? talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/is-it...

I broke the story yesterday that masked ICE agents (not DOJ) were removing items including a personal computer from the home of Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. I have yet to see a single news outlet cover this or an elected official even acknowledge it.

Ex-Florida deputy sheriff JOHN MARK DOUGAN, who fled to Moscow, named "2024 Disinformer of the Year.” Dougan claims he has copies of the Epstein evidence from the Palm Beach Police. He is a braggart and a liar, but he did defect to Russia with the FBI hot on his trail for wiretapping and extortion.

Fascism is government by the few and for the few. The objective is seizure and control of the economic, political, social, and cultural life of the state. The people run democratic governments, but fascist governments run the people.” -HCR January 9, 2026 open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

At about 2:30 a.m., a shelter dog named Dawson escaped from his gated enclosure and then used his teeth to open the front door of the animal shelter in West Virginia, slipping quietly into the night.

Republicans chose this. They wanted armed troops terrorizing, assaulting, and shooting unarmed Americans in the streets.

I wish Republicans were as outraged that Trump is ignoring court orders and using ICE as his Nazi Gestapo to disappear and murder US citizens, as they were that time Barack Obama wore a tan suit. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

this weight on the public will *have* to manifest in some way at some time, I don't know when or where or how, but you can't have this level of psychic/mental/emotional disruption to the lives of everyone in a country, and have that energy go nowhere

Article I, section 9, Clause 7 would like a word. Also and not for nothing, I continue to be amazed at Congressional Republicans repeatedly and completely defenestrating themselves

WTF?!

NEW: Once upon a time, mail voting was a bipartisan reform aimed at making voting more accessible. Post Trump, it’s now an ideological battle line between Democrats and Republicans. But a new USPS rule change risks harming voters from both parties, @marcelias.bsky.social writes.
