Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

🚨"This is nuts! What the f*ck is going on, this is insane! ICE is just trying to scare people; they tell you it's only immigrants—it's f*cking anybody!" -furious Minneapolis resident tells our @zdroberts.bsky.social after ICE shot a man in the leg tonight. LIVE NOW ⬇️

Once again, the president could stop this but is choosing not to.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

What the absolute [expletive] was that?!?

WATCH: @magaziner.house.gov tells @wpri12.bsky.social (while he is donating blood) that the @ribloodcenter.bsky.social is still in need of donations. Of significance, he said the director there said yesterday was possibly the busiest day for donations since 9/11. www.wpri.com/news/local-n...

A person of interest has been taken into custody overnight in connection with the shooting at Brown University:

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

No one should have to face such threats. It would’ve been nice if Greene had realized this before she amplified and endorsed calls for executing Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama.

ICYMI: Senator Ron Wyden sounds the alarm on Republicans plan to sneak a nationwide abortion ban into their funding bill. This is why it is so important for women to remain in the fight for our lives!

AOC: "This is about, do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And they assignment is to come together across difference no matter what."

What he said: 💯 🎯

Yet another lie and coverup. Remember Trump claiming the video of stuff being thrown out of the 2nd floor window of the White House awhile back was “probably AI-generated.”

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

So Bondi plans her congressional hearings by bringing up dirt on the senators who questioned her rather than answering the questions. This is the lying schemer that is running the DOJ.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent. Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

AG Bondi, here’s that correction you requested.

Chicago priest Father Michael Pfleger: "The state of emergency is in AMERICA, not Chicago. It's birthed from this president and his admin's reign of terror." ( ht: @mikenellis.bsky.social )

Please share: Federal law explicitly prohibits healthcare funds going to illegal immigrants. Don't let Republican liars get away w/saying otherwise. Only payments for emergency care are allowed, which keep hospitals from bankruptcy. 42 U.S.C. § 1396b(v)(1)–(3) www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

It’s a fact. Data from three decades of political violence reveals that right-wing terror attacks outnumber attacks from the left. And it’s not even close!

That’s a lot of something going on behind there.

My statement on House Resolution 719 on Charlie Kirk.

It’s been sad this year watching how the White House press corps refuses to back each other up. Here a female journalist is insulted and denigrated and the next male reporter just moves on to a new question. You’re all in this together, folks. Time & again, they won’t stand up for their colleagues.

It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents. But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

It truly cannot be restated enough that earlier this year Trump pardoned everyone involved with J6, the largest event of political violence in the US in my lifetime. They have absolutely no credibility here and deserve to be confronted with this fact whenever they're in public.

Tyler Robinson will be out of the news by Monday. Right wing which dominates media and politics and power is already gaslighting their audience and still blaming "the left." You can't shame shameless people who are committed to an extremist authoritarian project.

As more info comes in this needs to be said: if it wasn’t some left wing radical that did it, and it appears it wasn’t, there need to be massive pushback because they are STILL pretending it’s some culture war and it is only in their own minds Dangerous times

“Love it or hate it. Love them or hate them. We were a society where engagement wasn’t at the risk of violence. We have to get that American treasure back because it’s lost.” @cnn.com

You know what would be good FBI experience for identifying violent criminals in a large crowd? The agents who investigated January 6. Who have been/are being fired.

HAPPENING NOW Protest Amy Coney Barrett at the Nixon Library Park along Eureka or at the shopping centers on Yorba Linda & Imperial Hwy and walk a block west to the library. Do NOT park in the library lot, they will tow. They will also remove you from the property so stay on the public sidewalks.⁩

“Dear Baby Jesus, we beseech you, to still the tongues of the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his 'friend' and turn a blind eye if we are called upon to bear false witness—like denying identifiable signatures—as we unwelcome strangers, kill the sick, and take from the poor in your holy name. Glory!”

The gaslighting on the signature is maybe their most embarrassing thing yet. Just an absolute disregard for the truth, or dignity. @reptimburchett

No one believes that Trump didn't write that card and that isn't his signature. Why are we participating in this charade?

To put this into context, the judicial warrant for the search at the Hyundai plant named just four people. Relying on that warrant, ICE detained nearly 500 people. DHS admitted that included U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and people lawfully here on visas.

It's always worth noting that the Supreme Court is not just shredding the Constitution. It's shredding the Constitution because it is passionately and pathologically devoted to a pedophile. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

Racism wins with this Supreme Court...again.

In any other administration (including Trump's first one), someone in the Pentagon would have said: "Mr. President, you cannot order the military to murder a bunch of people on a boat on the high seas." Designating them "narco-terrorists" isn't a thing that lets you do that.

No solidarity. Reporters let Trump talk this way to a woman reporter and then clamor to get their own question answered. He used to do it to April Ryan, Yamiche Alcindor and Abby Phillip. And that’s why he controls media. No solidarity.

This is just so fucked up, these propaganda videos of ICE detaining the Hyundai workers is next level. I mean do they really need to be belly chained and ankle-cuffed like they’ve just been arrested for murder. I guess it’s just more red meat for the base. Shameful!!

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

if i had the opportunity to ask a question of anyone in the administration, given this "war in chicago" messaging, i would ask them how many americans the president intends to kill in his war

What Epstein records have not been made public?

Again, these are not the statements of a sane person. Trump is out of his mind. It's ridiculous that we are not having a serious national conversation about his clear decline, and the danger it represents to the country.
