Fun fact: Black Panthers doing perfectly legal (at the time) open carry in CA in the 1960s spurred then-Governor Reagan to sign the Mulford Act into law in 1965, prohibiting it. These people have no consistent politics outside a desperate, leering need to keep hold of power and privilege.

As our government slides ever further into open fascism, I have zero patience for anyone continuing to peddle the nonsense that the people to blame for all this are the ones who wouldn’t vote for a party that actively supported a right-wing genocide and the brutalization of those who protested it

This is my song. “Those are the real stakes — not white children feeling guilty, but white children armed with truth, history and a righteous desire to work with others to change the world.”

Folks really need to read Marx's 18th Brumaire in this moment.

Inside the detention center, Gibson said officers put him in a bare, metal holding cell about the size of a small conference room with around 40 other detainees. Their legs were shackled. Gibson said one person in the cell appeared to have scabies.

haha

"Strangest of all is the liberal pipe dream that local police will stand up against ICE and CBP, when police have collaborated with ICE and been deployed to protect agents from protesters, even in so-called sanctuary cities." An interview with Robin D.G. Kelley www.bostonreview.net/articles/ren...

Suspiciously asking my wife who's funding her anytime she criticizes me

Very important point. Buttigieg and co are actually trying to rescue ICE, because they believe in a law and order politics including a robust regime of surveillance, detention, and deportation. One of Harris's early ads focused on this and an early Dem line on Trump was he was weak on the border

I would not trust anyone with Maria Corina Machado's hairline to lead a state.

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

If all you're willing to do is say "We're cooked" on a social media site, maybe it is all over. If you're willing to struggle alongside your friends and neighbors for democracy, then we've got a chance.

ICE agents only do this because they are extremely well-trained and experienced with the situations they are creating

A competent opposition political party would cut together the footage of what ICE had been doing in the twin cities with Mike Johnson saying "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do" and have it in ads all across the country

You're not wrong - a storm *IS* blowing from Paradise. Here's why that's bad news: • The angel would like to stay, awaken the dead, and make whole what's been smashed. But its wings aren't strong enough. • What we see as a chain of events? Actually, it's one single catastrophe.

trump smells like three-week-old-ass: many are saying this

Last week, we announced a plan to make child care universal. Today, applications are open for pre-K & 3-K. If your child is turning 3 or 4, apply now for the fall at: myschools.nyc

Happening Now: Students have walked out of school and are protesting against ICE in Saint Paul, Minnesota

What actually is our capitalist class outside of the state thinking about all of this? It is not evident to me that fascist chaos is good for business.

listen to osita

🎵Come out La Migra goons In your stumbling platoons Tell your wives how you ate shit on ice for quotas Tell her how despite your guns all you ever did was run from the cold and frozen streets of Minnesota!🎵

These people will need to face official trials too.

The pigs are completely unprepared, and I mean the prospect never crossed their mind, for normies not instantly cowering in fear and running home. If it weren't so appalling it'd be fucking hilarious

People not in Minnesota: please read this excellent summary of what life is like in Minneapolis since the murderous scum ICE swarmed here. And more are on their way. By local reporter / writer / bike dude / legend @dbrauer.net .

Yes, immigration agents not only took Arnoldo's phone, the 10th grader had to use Find My Phone to locate it — in a vending machine for used electronics, close to an ICE detention center. Read the full story here: www.propublica.org/article/vide...

"“They specifically asked me if I knew where the Hmong families lived on my street & in the neighborhood.” Lugert-Thom responded, “I don’t know anything about that” & she said they then asked, “Well, what about the Asian families?”" "“I was a bit shaken & a bit shocked of what I was asked to do.”"

The national media, the ADL, corporate leaders, etc. are not revisiting their decisions about Musk now afaict. Musk is just allowed to be a very public Nazi accelerationist as well as a CSAM publisher without any mainstream scrutiny.

Been posting this for months; it was true then and it’s true now

They lie about their jobs because they know their jobs are reviled by the public. They know they’re hated—that people will think less of them if they know they work for ICE—and it bothers them. Which is good for everyone to remember. They’re ashamed. They’re miserable. They’re LOSERS. Remind them.

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

hi, political philosopher here! this is not funny, central banks only do this when they're in extreme distress

An arsonist hit a Mississippi synagogue Saturday. Seven Torahs were damaged or destroyed in the fire. One Torah, from the Holocaust, was in a glass case and wasn't touched. The same synagogue was bombed by the KKK in 1967. mississippitoday.org/2026/01/10/f...

Their politics are based on a mystified Symbolic Order, not the experience of fleshy people.

Today in least surprising news... www.advocate.com/news/who-is-...

Electeds' silence (both parties) while funding genocide against majority opinion has led us to this place: ICE attempting ethnic cleansing at home.

meanwhile content by queer artists, performers, swers et al that is neither explicit nor obscene is being censored on most social platforms in the name of Safety. insane state of affairs

ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis or we WILL lock up our own citizens

This is from months ago and nothing is changing and the fundamental problem is clear from watching any state or local elected official at a press conference after the cops fuck up: they are scared shitless of the police they are nominally in charge of.

ICE agents are more likely to accidentally shoot and kill themselves than be killed by an immigrant. Pizza delivery drivers face far more danger than ICE and police.

So ICE and the White House have been scrambling to pump out meme videos of clashes with protesters and "epic takedowns" and then an ICE agent recording video with his phone shoots a woman dead www.washingtonpost.com/technology/i...

Ah yes, the classic "IDF soldiers suffering from low morale over all the genocide they're doing" style article.

Unsurprisingly a random protester has much better framing than nearly all politicians. And handles the bad faith questions easily

Legit thought this was The Onion

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

new race to see which state will be the first to charge federal agents with murder or attempted murder of their residents. Solidarity works better when all try it rather than none.

2014, huh? (old snake face)

It is badass when Bloch, adding to this, says that the hope he has in mind is not naive optimism but a desire for an improved future informed by detailed analysis of the balance of forces in the present and “warmed” by “love for the victims, and hatred of exploiters.” (Principle of Hope I, 272)
