We’re entering Korematsu and Hirabayashi territory here.

The fragiles over at Fox are doing their thing … Self parody.

Remember when we thought Sarah Palin was the dumbest person in politics Good times.

just a reminder that the united states is essentially operating a network of torture camps holding individuals in arbitrary detention, without access to appeal and rarely to counsel.

We'll miss the white "Christian" nationalists during their Salute to Pedophiles halftime sideshow: "Young ladies, young ladies I like 'em underage, see Some say that's statutory But I say it's mandatory" - Kid Rock (Cool, Daddy Cool)

Excellent analysis of the Fifth Circuit’s nutty and inhumane interpretation of immigration law and the prospects for SCOTUS review.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

New month, same headline: soulless billionaire dilettante sledgehammers pillar of American journalism. #WaPo

In a normal news environment, we’d be talking about a certain electric car company that just decided to stop making cars and sink all its money into revenge porn.

Excellent analysis and context here, @charliesavage.bsky.social

Don’t tell RFKJ.

🎧 listen this is heartbreaking 💔 @coldfishstix on TikTok for the whole track

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy

I am distressingly confident that the congressional Democrats will cave, accepting a handful of meaningless concessions but convincing themselves they’ve made a difference.

Odd how when people like Bari Weiss go on about 'merit-based hiring', what they mean is hiring nice-looking white boys from elite schools regardless of their experience. Here's CBS's new Ukraine correspondent. Graduated college less than a year ago. Yale Rugby. Only job: 7 months freelancing. 1/

Curious to hear Brendan Carr's solution to talk radio where conservative shows outnumber liberal ones 10-to-1.

Should be fired immediately.

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

She warned us all. Nobody wanted to listen. She was right about all of it. He’s even more unhinged than we imagined. We could be just living our peaceful lives right now. But, no.

I know, it’s the NY Post, but still remarkable how wholly false this report is from #GeoffEarle and #ElishaFieldstadt, even after the story was “updated.“ Shameful.

Phenomenal

It's really too bad the United States Congress no longer exists.

"... complicates the narrative." JFC.

From the NY Post. You know they are really scrambling when they are running "The gun was no angel" stories.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

Is there a constitutional amendment that this administration hasn't tossed out the window? Maybe the third, but that's probably next.

To the feckless, hand-wringing, fence-sitting Democrats in D.C., this would be a great day to retire. Your services are no longer necessary.

Every utterance from this administration is misinformation. A relentless firehose of insane lies.

Watch carefully. ICE thug in the grey pants and greenish top started and then further escalated this entire tragedy. First thing we see (upper left) is him shoving a moman almost to the ground, then shoving another one. And he continues, shoving the first woman again until she falls over.

Say his name: Alex Pretti. #FUCKICE

Protester in Minneapolis just before disappearing in gas: "Fuck you! Stop. Damn! I'm 70 years old and I'm fuckin' angry!"

Another execution in Minneapolis by untrained lawless vigilante scum.

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

Hundreds of demonstrators are streaming toward downtown Minneapolis for a march and rally against federal law enforcement, waving signs that read "ICE OUT!" 📸: Kyeland Jackson/The Minnesota Star Tribune

“We have a nice little database.” Two weeks ago I wrote about the risk of Trump using his NSPM-7 memo to treat citizens exercising their rights like terrorists. Now it’s a reality. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

Hilarious that this administration thinks it has any moral authority or persuasive power on free speech, or any other issue. www.msn.com/en-xl/news/o...

every single goddam crisis happening right now is self imposed

Good morning. What a deeply embarrassing day to be a US citizen, on so many levels.

Honestly boycotting the World Cup would be the most effective and probably the least disruptive of all of the options available to Europe. I’m not sure how you can send teams and fans to contribute to a spectacle designed entirely to celebrate a guy trying to invade your territory.

THE MAN THEY TOOK WRAPPED IN A BLANKET IS A U.S. CITIZEN. This is the Kavanaugh Stop of all Kavanaugh Stops.

It REALLY frustrates me that everyone always forgets LaMonica McIver.

The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”
