genuinely stunning image

Note how there's no violence or chaos when the cops aren't rioting.

It's already demoralizing to be a federal thug, a barely sentient ogre. Nobody likes or respects you. But then you go to work in -19 weather thinking surely today you'll get a break from people yelling at you. But no there they are. They're not even cold

Solidarity always with Minnesota!

Remembering the end of Matt Walsh's "What Is a Woman?" Where his wife hands him, the big strong man, a jar to open, and there's a cut because he couldn't open it himself. It's not relevant at all. It's just funny.

Not exaggerating when I say that the collective action in Minnesota will be studied for generations if not centuries to come

Trafficking the boy after using him as bait, pinning someone in the snow to spray into their mask, shooting Marimar Martinez, murdering Renee Good—Bovino and Miller are asserting the right to harm anyone they want. The only acceptable response is to make sure they can no longer harm anyone at all.

Hakeem Jeffries actually being against this bill but being unable (or unwilling) to whip his caucus into voting against it, thereby causing it to pass when a united caucus would've defeated it, says all you need to know about that twerp bsky.app/profile/andr...

She apologized for ATTENDING THE GAME because ESPN put her on TV. What the fuck. No issue with how the viewers recognized her of course. No problem to be a man who watches porn but if you attend a college football game and some horny dicks recognize you then you must apologize.

kidnapping a 5 year old to bait his father and then shipping them thousands of miles away should put you in prison, yes, but it should also cause every friend and family member you have ever had to permanently reject you in disgrace, and if they don’t, they share your shame

They can’t do it because it points out that they themselves are doing nothing to help. Maybe three of them saying Abolish ICE. The rest are talking about retraining and body cams and QR codes.

I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow

People can say they didn’t vote for this but people are liars

and may never get an answer

Cooked country

An amazing thread

World Cup is gonna go great.

Last night's disappointing revelation that Trump did not perish on Air Force One is an important reminder: no one can count on waiting him out. Maybe we get lucky, but unfortunately, these spiteful sociopaths tend to survive on hate for a lot longer than they should. Standing up is the only option.

I'm super impressed that they got them all

If you have read even a single history of fascism, you are already aware that one thing that its rise has in common in every case is an opposition party that refuses to intervene for fear of looking weak or putting the left into power

You cannot reform this.

Gonna repeat again that nobody who worked for ICE should be allowed to live a normal life after this. There's no reforming it and abolishing it is bare minimum at this point

The Democrats should shut down the government on this sentence alone.

this is just conservatism, no understanding of the systems they benefit from and constant false victimhood

“ICE isn’t the Gestapo. The Gestapo was…” (proceeds to describe qualities that apply to what ICE is currently doing)

dang it you all keep getting too excited and scaring off The Angel of Death

“Democrats obscured Biden’s cognitive decline” is really being blown out of the water by “Republicans are embracing and profiting from Trump’s cognitive decline.”

So baller to do this in a German speaking country

Why can't Democratic leadership say this? Because they DONT WANT TO.

NO

The trouble, of course, is that the sort of person who is ever going to think "OK, I have enough money now" is not the sort of person who becomes a billionaire.

Hey, remember when people used to say Trump wouldn’t be bought or corruptly influenced by wealthy interests because he was already so rich? That was fun.

If you see the violent occupation of Minnesota and think anything other than “we should loudly oppose this and make it an election issue” you’re a freakin idiot.

The original concentration camps didn't start as death camps. But they did kill a lot of people through neglect, malnutrition, disease, and individual murders. There's no distinction between this facility and dachau in 1933.

Me cackling because fuck the U 🤣🤣🤣

fwiw this is the kind of stuff that is going to get us through, not playing rambo

Leo Messi watching this display of kicking and leaving Miami in disgust

Oh I fucking LOVE a blocked punt

Congratulations everyone, Big Brother wasn’t imposed on you, you bought Big Brother on Prime Day and installed him yourselves.

The Nobel Peace Prize becoming so prestigious that wars are fought over a head of state coveting it is some real monkey paw stuff for Alfred Nobel.

Dr. King reminded us that change doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when regular people decide to lead. Honor the legacy. Find where you can serve. Your community is waiting.

It’s ironic that they’re like “if we do ethnic cleansing we’ll have a high trust neighborly society” and then Minneapolis is literally doing high trust neighborly society and they’re like nooooo

one of the best things about this whole nightmare has been watching a whole bunch of folks who have clearly never been seriously political in their lives standing up and going, no, absolutely the fuck not, we’re not letting this happen

Between Mamdani and Spanberger, the establishment of "instantly repeal all the bullshit the last pig put in place" as Democratic priority #1 for both democratic socialists and ex-CIA types is an extremely heartening development.

Inspecting Elements is my passion

DOJ investigating whether Denmark lied on its Greenland mortgage.

And a county that already contracts with ICE for space in the county jail. I was absolutely shocked when Neuhaus came out against it, but whatever works to try to keep this thing out!

As much as this month has sucked, it has also given me enormous hope in the power of ordinary people to do extraordinarily selfless things.
