Definitely worth a read: The concentration camp society, the role of propaganda, and the mandate to #AbolishICE www.nytimes.com/2026/02/21/o...

When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.

“Don’t use us to distract from your Epstein mess bro” - Aliens 👽

CNN doing PR for Johnson here by claiming "the general practice is for presidents, select military officials & select government officials to lie in honor" without noting exceptions. Like Billy Graham. So White preacher gets to lie in state but not Black one?

Several students at Quakertown High School were taken into custody on Friday after a student walkout protesting federal immigration enforcement escalated into a confrontation that left at least one teenager bloodied and in handcuffs, according to witnesses and video footage from the scene.

"Show me your budget & I'll show you your values"

2/2 For the record, since always left out of news stories. During bitter Bush-v-Gore, history-changing, "Brooks Brothers Riot" Florida recount in 2000, the GW Bush legal team included: -John Roberts -Amy Coney Barrett -Brett Kavanaugh. BK also worked for Ken Starr. All just coincidence, of course

Thinking of the Yale Law eminences who vouched for Brett K. (Hi, Akhil Reed Amar! Amy Chua! William Eskridge! Start of a long list.)

Every billionaire in the Epstein files could drop dead tomorrow and the world would not only be fine, it would actually improve. The quality of our media would improve. Our environment. Our food. Our health care. Our technology.

lol

Concerned about ICE's $45 billion plan to convert warehouses into immigration detention centers? This is what they'll look like inside. From ICE's plan for the Social Circle, GA facility. Each little dot: a person. www.socialcirclega.gov/home/showpub...

“The detention staffers blocked the security cameras and grabbed my testicles and firmly crushed them.” They are crushing testicles in ICE camps. One detainee was suffocated to death & the regime rushed to deport the witnesses who saw him killed. This is a humanitarian crisis.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

The more of these fascist atrocities I see, the more I become an immigration maximalist. Let everyone in, give everyone work permits/green cards. Make it possible to get citizenship within a few months. Make it as easy as getting a driver's license.

Open borders create more safety than closed ones, and most of the benefits of safety are downriver from being the sort of people who keep their borders open, thereby avoiding the terrible dangers inherent to being the sort of people who would keep their borders closed.

Happy book birthday to NINJA KAIJU @awyeahfranco.bsky.social @scootcomics.bsky.social out now from @papercutzgn.bsky.social

I will say it is kind of weird how high profile transphobes who are Just Very Concerned About The Safety Of Children universally tend to have at most 2 degrees of separation from Jeffrey Epstein

This is one of the most important graphic novels of the century so far. Nate Powell's collaboration with John Lewis' autobiography is truly powerful and remarkable.

Top Shelf has collected the March trilogy, the graphic memoir of Rep. John Lewis and the Civil Rights movement, into a single omnibus, and there is no better reading for our times. It's history, inspiration, and a handbook for action all in one. bookshop.org/p/books/marc...

I often think about the fact that if the FBI et al had not killed Fred Hampton, he would be 78 today. Younger than Jesse Jackson was. Must have felt strange to outlive many of your contemporaries by decades.

I voted for Jesse Jackson in 1988, grateful to have a candidate whose political beliefs aligned with mine for once. I was living in NYC at the time, and I remember how a number of ballot boxes in Black areas somehow came unsealed so the contents had to be invalidated. I've never forgotten that.

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

One of the greats.

The open racism you guys have emboldened, megyn

Good to know that Brett Kavanaugh was Jeffrey Epstein's "first choice" for the Supreme Court. He must be so proud! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

More evidence that Republicans just hate women and girls

So you're saying ICE is incompatible with the rule of law as practiced in this nation from the founding? Think I see a pretty easy solution here, champ.

👀 Invoking Orwell, a federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore panels and historical acknowledgments of the history of slavery that the National Park Service removed in Philadelphia. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

For @comicsbeat.bsky.social, I reviewed FIRST FREEDOM (@oni-press.bsky.social), a centuries-spanning nonfiction work chronicling the life of Dr. Opal Lee, the Grandmother of Juneteenth, and the fight for Juneteenth to become a federal holiday. This is an excellent addition to any library.

Let me just make a few little adjustments to that title… “How a scientist with a PhD in Geology and 25 years of experience is helping lead California’s earthquake work” Way to devalue my experience.

#OTD in 1851, Shadrach Minkins became the first person arrested in Boston, MA under the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. While he was being taken to the courthouse, a crowd of abolitionists rushed the courtroom and overpowered the marshals who had taken him into custody.

we may have deported people, but we did it without disturbing ✨your brunch✨

American culture of the 1840’s would have been *very fucking surprised* to see the Irish considered as co-founders. Elon’s an ahistorical dipshit, but its always worth saying some stuff out loud: if you‘re a fellow Irish-American and you aren’t 100% pro-immigrant, you’re a fucking embarassment.

CoreCivic executives receive cash incentives beyond their base salaries, based on company earnings. ICE revenues more than doubled in 2025. Patrick Swindle is now CoreCivic CEO. He is heavily incentivized to grow ICE revenues -- as are executives and investors. #DIVEST #$CXW

When you follow the money, you find some really disgusting people.

"That ICE is an organization of terror. And when I said that, you can imagine, I have had colleagues on the Republican side who said ‘she needs to be denounced, removed, deported.’ Also xenophobic and racist and terrible fascist things. "

CoreCivic CEO Patrick Swindle was promoted into the job last year after his predecessor stepped down. "CoreCivic CEO to step down amid flurry of ICE contracts, soaring profits, prison violence: COO Patrick Swindle will replace Damon Hininger" www.tennessean.com/story/news/l...

I think Democrats should stop with “Trump is doing deportation wrong” because I think they should stop focusing on immigration as a matter of crime and punishment. It should a matter of freedom and opportunity. The question should be how is the government going to protect and advance both.

I'm gifting this article on how Catholics had to go to court to be able to worship freely in this country under arguably the most anti-Catholic administration in American history, the Trump-Vance administration.

Majestic Realty, which is owned by Los Angeles Lakers & Kings co-owner & Republican donor Ed Roski Jr., is listed as the broker contact on the listing for a proposed $80M ICE detention facility. These globally recognized sports brands could suffer reputational damage. Time to boycott?

SURPRISE I am THRILLED to be writing SEVEN WIVES, the launch title of IDW's new Crime line of books. Doing this pitch-black fringe Mormon cult murder mystery with @wyrmsfornerves.bsky.social has been an incredible experience and I can't wait for y'all to read it. www.forbes.com/sites/robsal...

This is a perfect headline/picture combo.

One of the most prestigious lists in comics is ALA and YALSA's Great Graphic Novels List. With this week's announcement that Good Old-Fashioned Korean Spirit has made the 2026 list, every book in our series has been honored as one of the best comics for teens. Get them all from your local library!

It is not too early for Democrats to build a Project 2028, because if we win, every single agency is going to have to be restaffed and rebuilt from the ground up in the first 100 days, and "We're going to undo the damage" can't be the sole item on our four-year agenda.READ NEXT POST BEFORE REPLYING>
