Minnesota authorities should have immediately put the ICE killer in custody. None of us could have gotten away with that on video like he has. It’s insane.

Klobuchar is the Susan Collins of the left. Dump her from Democratic politics, Minnesota. Y’all can do so much better.

If this is the proposition then there's literally zero reason not to shut the government down. What do you get if it's open? Nothing!

@schumer.senate.gov do something! Play time with American Nazis is over. Do you think we don’t realize you’re complicit? Prove me wrong, motherf*cker. Now or never.

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.

On that note, I am not saying you should ice down your front steps and drop a few marbles if you live in Minneapolis where ICE is going door to door and have a Ring camera. But I would watch the shit out of those goons crashing out like Home Alone villains on every front porch.

Campaigns are job interviews. Elected officials are our employees. Period. Treat them that way.

Nationalized schadenfreude.

It’s a problem that Dem politicians do not work for Dem voters. Primary them and elect FIGHTERS.

A favorite sign from today's NYC protest march

The Slovenian magazine, “Objektiv”, is getting accolades for this brilliant cover design.

So, would ICE’s illegal, unconstitutional, extrajudicial murders and kidnapping be okay if its officers received 94 days of training @chrismurphyct.bsky.social? Abolish ICE, end qualified immunity or STFU. As @SenateGabe says, complaints absent action are endorsements.

Pretty clear at this point that the only thing they were worried that this force was going to work to prevent racist violence; an armed, federal, domestic police force that *enacts* racist violence? baby that's just a good time for a conservative.

We cannot begin to solve these problems before y’all accept this. We have to clean our own Dem house before we’ll be in a position to clean the rest. PLEASE understand this!

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia. Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.” Really listen to it.

Prove him wrong.

Use Rule IX for an impeachment vote. When it fails, do it again. And again. And again. Deny every unanimous consent. Appeal every point of order including ones you just made up. Make every vote be recorded. Be unruly and disorderly. Call Johnson a scumbag traitor on the floor, and then keep going.

I think we won’t really free up the space to imagine a way out of American fascism until people grasp this: most of what the “opposition party” has to offer them is their preferred actors for state violence

rightwingers always call women “too emotional” but renee good states she’s not mad in a calm voice while the agitated emotional ICE agent unloads his gun umprompted and calls her a “fucking bitch” after she’s dead

The processing of child pornography was a grueling, manual process until Elon Musk’s invention of the child pornography gin.

How many times do we have to say this before people start to understand and believe? This is going on Year 6 of my saying this on repeat.

this is just a friendly reminder that it is Shut The Fuck Up Friday

Just a reminder that George Conway is not fundraising right now to run against a MAGA republican. He is fundraising to run against progressive Democrats.

before murdering renee good, the ice goon was frightened for his life, we’re told It’s meant to justify the murder nobody telling us this ever seems to wonder whether the woman who was murdered might have been afraid for her life killing because you’re afraid is only for cops, it seems

lol—hilarious, Seth! What the f*ck are you gonna do about it, @magaziner.house.gov? When are you people gonna tire of just munching popcorn while your country crumbles under the boot of fascism? DO YOUR JOBS, @housedemocrats.bsky.social.

there needs to be a sex offender registry but for ice guys. you should have to go door to door when you move to a new area and inform your neighbors that you used to be an ice guy. they shouldn't be allowed with 500 feet of a school

Wow—double the military, a patriot dividend AND pay down the debt? Sign me up for that magic, Donroe!

one of the things i hate most about this persistent line of argument is the implication that any of these actions would be fine if groceries were cheaper

Hours ago:

If Trump takes it a step further, we’re into Anschluss territory, people. WE are now the bad guys.

Precedents like this render him immune from future gov’t shutdowns. He doesn’t need the legislature’s funds if he can create massive slush funds for himself by looting foreign nations and extorting US companies. He’s achieving escape velocity from our system & Congress is just watching.

Literal “war is peace.”

Trump’s military attack on Venezuela, without any congressional authorization, is a clear impeachable offense. Members of Congress who still believe in the US Constitution must immediately advance articles of impeachment against this lawless president. www.impeachtrumpagain.org @fsfp.bsky.social

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

if I hire an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he instead presents me with a list of reasons he is incapable of doing so while asking for more money so that he can maybe handle it later, I am not angrier at the roaches, I am in the market for a better exterminator

Shit like this is why Trump is planning for his “ballroom” to be a bunker.

I’m compelled to restate that this is why we “doomers”criticized Dems’ appeasement policies so robustly over the Biden years—not as “I told you so” but b/c if we hand Dems power again, THEY MUST ROOT ALL FASCISTS OUT AND FIX DEMOCRACY. Start the new year by vowing to hold Dems’ feet to the fire.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

The FIFA Peace Prize doesn't mean what it used to

This makes Trump eligible for “capture and removal” by another country for his crimes now, right? Should we start a pool on the country with balls enough? Or maybe start a GoFundMe for that?

The kind of stuff that should be getting wall-to-wall media coverage but won't even crack a single news cycle. The media's complete and utter capitulation to Trump in his second term is a national disgrace.

I’m starting to think we should try this for real Make a version of this guy, have it say and do all kinds of repulsive things, and post it online for him to see bsky.app/profile/kevi...

When I buy a new car, I buy a good car that lasts a long time. My current car is a 2011, never had a problem. I bought a new car on Friday—got a GREAT deal—but can’t pick it up until tomorrow. I’ve never jonesed for a Monday so hard before!

You don’t need to pretend that the Democrats are on your team when they aren’t. If they were on your team they would be fighting fascism.

Look folks, anyone waiting for an easier point in the future to remove the regime is living in a fantasy land. They got their budget and they are going to use it. They will get better at this the longer it goes on.

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.

New from me, for @ms.now: "Having lived in Providence for most of my life...I say with certainty that the people here don’t want President Donald Trump using this tragedy to fuel his anti-immigrant agenda. It would be harmful and disrespectful to hijack our heartbreak for this purpose."

Perennial reminder: A party that has Nazis in its coalition is a Nazi party.

"I’m sorry, but a few hundred unhinged Truth Social posts an hour fired off in an Adderall-fueled haze over a few days is not the same as someone sitting down, channeling the muses, and workshopping pure elegance like, 'We can’t wait for the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud.'"
