I mean, yeah. It is insurgency because I guess what we call insurgency overseas is often also just people trying to defend their neighbors from invaders who hate them.

Across America and the world, people are realizing it’s not possible to appease America’s dictator. The only way to deal with him is to stand up to him — and the only way to stand up to him is by joining together against him. It's time for a massive general strike across the country.

@sphillipsab.bsky.social has summarized one of the biggest threats to Canadian national security in this Substack post. Worth reading.

Israel’s parliament will be voting shortly on a law that would permit the death penalty for Palestinians only. If settlers attack a Palestinian and they fight back, they can be hanged in 90 days.

If they are doing this to white people in broad daylight imagine what they are doing to non-white people in detention facilities.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

It will not be a shocking development, it will not be a ‘change in the narrative’ it will be the predictable consequence of actions consciously taken that people saw coming.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

The first Minnesota murder, they refused to let a medical professional help the woman they shot. The second Minnesota murder, they simply shot the medical professional.

Abolish ICE is now the moderate minimum position, Prosecute ICE is where Dems should be at next.

years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

Memory is a fragile thing in this moment, so it is important to keep in mind that Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his caucus against ICE funding earlier this week.

Trump is actively work to break our country apart. The plan has been in the works for a long time. There is a lot of dark money on the table. Prime Minister Carney needs to deal with the quisling front group being used to sell our nation out.

Its probably been said since this was posted, but on Thursday, Democrats had the numbers. The bill passed 220-207 with 7 Democrats voting yea. If they all vote nay, DHS funding fails 213-214.

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

You have to arrest these guys, man

Arresting the witnesses to their crimes. ICE is a criminal organization operating under cover of the government.

I genuinely think boycotting the World Cup is some of the strongest leverage the Europeans have.

imagine being too much of a triangulating coward to oppose this

pepper spraying someone in the face from inches away while they are already restrained on the ground should get you fired and land you in jail, no exceptions

Canada should reject Trump’s invitation to sit on his so-called board of peace, which is nothing but an American scheme to replace the United Nations.

2026 is seeing that the U.S. Army is mobilizing a unit specialized for winter conditions, but not knowing if the intended mission is violent repression of an American city or stealing territory from a U.S. treaty ally.

I’m howling.

Both completely expected and absolutely corrupt.

When the racist meme becomes national policy

this completely horrifying. ICE is a domestic occupying threat against us all

Dropkick Murphys are releasing a new song called "Citizen I.C.E." The lyrics go: "Too scared to join the military/ Too dumb to be a cop." consequence.net/2026/01/drop...

Quite frankly, it’s outrageous that Mark Carney is cutting Statistics Canada. If he was Stephen Harper or Pierre Poilievre, I feel like this would be getting a lot more backlash. Carney of all people should know the importance of high-quality data and information about the country.

Put another way, if Kristi Noem made a speech tomorrow in front of a podium with a swastika on it, you'd be out of your mind to argue that comparisons to Nazi Germany are inappropriate. That's what they're already doing, just with marginally less well known rhetoric.

Think you have to retire the phrase “immigration crackdown” when every major violent spectacle — at least those the news is choosing to highlight — involve US citizens screaming “Check my ID!”

Unions and community orgs are calling for a Minnesota-wide shutdown in 10 days to protest the ferocious assault by federal immigration agents. They're saying on Jan 23, no work, no school, no shopping. SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, & others are supporting, w/ more to join. By me, Amie Stager

This is Minneapolis: Walk into my neighborhood ACE last night & see the signage on their door notifying fed agents that it’s private property and cannot be used for immigration enforcement. These signs are all over the city. Walk in & the nearest shelf has goggles & whistles.

Travellers & tourists should be aware the #Hilton hotel chain just fired a franchisee who wouldn't rent a room to ICE thugs. If you stay at a Hilton/Doubletree (or affiliates) you might be next door to a trigger-happy goon squad, or supporting a brand that's made a choice to stand with them.

There is a lot in this interview. Quoting to amplify specifically that at the end they report the ICE agents saying, “Have you not learned? This is why we killed that lesbian bitch.” ICE agents appear now to approve of the killing of Renee Good as an act of terrorism committed by them collectively

Those of you who still insist on drawing a distinction between ICE and police should be aware that the police are not drawing that distinction.

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers. Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

@helps.octranspo.com tiles were never a great idea, but in the interim, get the mopping crew.

I have 'Vance gets excommunicated' on my bingo card for this year, so he can just keep going at it ;-)

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

"To those at DHS and in this chamber who have created and rewarded a culture of murder, I ask you the same question that God asked Cain: What have you done?!"

Two people have been shot by federal agents in Portland.

Every one of these announcements reads to me as "we don't have enough people and supplies to occupy more than one city at a time"

people figured out that Jonathan Ross was the murderer bc kristi noem mentioned that he'd been dragged by a car in a previous incident. she "doxxed" her own guy lol

Imagine your last gesture being one of courtesy towards the men who will murder you ten seconds later.
