The Cato institute being one of the heroes of our time may not have been on my bingo card, but boy have they stood up for what we used to call decent values.

Tommy Robinson posted a neo-Nazi blog that accused me and my fellow Jews Jack Straw and Barbara Roche of conspiring to flood the UK with immigrants.

I'm still just baffled at the sheer stupidity here. “You got a vial of opium that was in your center console,” an officer told Raghu. “Go and take a seat.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The US is deporting a journalist today Mario Guevara was live streaming ICE atrocities They grabbed him Detained him for 100 Days and are sending him to El Salvador without letting him say goodbye to his family The ACLU confirmed he was working in the US legally They’re attacking the free press

kid of a cop

and if they feel they can do that with impunity to an international figure, what do you think they have been doing to innumerable unknown Palestinians?

Noem says in the video that "we" were about to make some arrests. Then she complains that Illinois state leaders "don't have the backs of law enforcement" because they wouldn't let her in. Not quite. They wouldn't facilitate her law enforcement cosplay propaganda video. And good on them for it.

In Portland, Oregon,(DHS) and (ICE) used pepper spray on the breathing hole of a peaceful protester who was wearing a blow-up frog costume.

/8 So: yes, praise the FBI agent who wouldn’t perp-walk James Comey. But praise him for defying routine law enforcement bad behavior AND Trumpism.

This is what “common sense” looks like! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This is all they want. They don’t care about a trial or a conviction.

Let's be clear: this is the result of deliberate political choices to make accessing trans healthcare substantially impossible. It's what Streeting and his ilk want.

As a visibly Jewish person, I always know that going to a synagogue means assuming a certain degree of risk. But now I know that if something were to happen to me, it wouldn't just be sad for my family, but people would try to exploit my death to push policies I deplore.

Department of Education employees furloughed this week discovered their email accounts had been manipulated while they were out of office to include partisan talking points that blamed a government shutdown on Democrats. www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

This is incredibly basic but you can in fact oppose murder while also opposing murder. I don't trust the police to protect synagogues given they literally just shot and killed a Jewish man at a synagogue. But if I did, that would surely be far more important than arresting a bunch of pensioners.

heinous thugs. solidarity with the hero journalists and organizers on the ground at broadview.

Crowd chanting, "lick them boots! Lick them boots!" at ISP.

State of Illinois now doing the goons' job for them.

It's only going to get worse

Federal agents reporting to Secretary Noem have spent weeks snatching up families, scaring law-abiding residents, violating due process rights, and even detaining U.S. citizens. They fail to focus on violent criminals and instead create panic in our communities.

Broadview, Illinois today— A dizzying array of federal and local police quashed an anti-deportation protest outside the Chicago ICE "processing" facility. Border Patrol agents once again violently attacked protesters, with arrest and crowd control support from IL state troopers.

Drive me off this picture

No one has a warrant to zip tie naked children

what the HELLING HELL

My god. “Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

Israel has kidnapped hundreds of people in international waters. They were trying to break an illegal siege which is starving the people of Gaza. The flotilla is the best of us 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/israel-kid...

NEW: Federal workers had their out-of-office replies changed to an unhinged and probably illegal partisan screed; when they changed them to neutral language, the replies were changed yet again. @leahfeiger.bsky.social and @telliotter.bsky.social have the details:

On this day, Sept 30 2000, Muhammad al-Durra was killed on camera. I was 9 years old. On this day I understood the lives of Palestinian children were considered cheap by many. If only we knew that we would go on to watch thousands of children die on our screens.

What kind of story can he be telling himself? 'I will make up for the Iraq war by becoming Gauleiter of the post-genocide rubble'

just guess

Finally Barbara’s story is getting national attention. New update from her gofundme: she is now in a Louisiana ICE processing center after three days of travel in shackles. She’s sleeping on the floor and has been denied care for her medical condition.

Is this not straight-forwardly a declaration of civil war?

ICE are thug trash.

Now do Mumsnet, or is that too close to home?

ICE brutally detains U.S. citizen just for filming—knocking her unconscious. "Agents took her to a side alley, beat her up, then called an ambulance," witness said. "Then they kidnapped her from the hospital—without a formal discharge—and took her to Downtown LA Detention Center."

Blessings upon this man ✨

What we might refer to as a "Kavanaugh Stop"

god damn it internet, stop gaslighting me, I know there is a John Braine novel involving a pad called Shal[l]ot[t] House, with tons of late 60s cannabis paranoia, where the protagonist retreats into his catholic roots,

Labi Siffre has issued Tommy Ten Names with a cease and desist order against the use of his song 'Something inside so strong'. Good man! I hope he sues him. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025....

They are so afraid of this they won’t seat a newly elected Congresswoman from AZ to keep it from happening.

Hakeem Jeffries while being dragged to an gulag by ICE goons: "This is bad for American healthcare"

If you read the article this was straight up a torture program that also featured a bunch of sexual assault, abuses on a level that one will day be in textbooks with the question how did it go on so long Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

ICE arrested press tonight. They threw a tear gas canister into the press last week. This was not an accident. Release Steve Held.

Now trump plans to attend the mass gathering of senior military leaders and their staff at the pentagon for what was going to be Hegseth’s 30 min “warrior ethos” speech. Which means this whole this is about to get real goofy. Expect an hours-long lecture of nonsense at a price tag of millions.

Yes, arresting a journalist for doing their job is a big flashing red light. But I don't want people to forget the whole reason everyone is out there. This is what I saw inside: Four holding rooms. Two smaller rooms were being used for holding protesters. Two larger rooms held ICE/CBP captives.

I hear the President has decreed that it is possibly a crime to refer to Americans as "fascists," but "fascism" is a word that has a relatively clear meaning that's worth understanding. Here's how an official publication of the US Army defined "fascism" in 1945.
