Thank you Trump for keeping us safe with a TSA screening to watch fireworks on the Washington Mall: a thing that was not necessary before Trump fixed the city and Made It Safe Again Thank you for protecting us from sunscreen, Mr Trump

Yeah, that is very wrong. The Constitution puts *Congress* in control of immigration. That the president can do a lot in the field is because Congress passed laws granting those powers. /there is *some* inherent executive authority to exclude, but that authority is largely regulated by Congress.

Since 2020 the Cato Institute has been better than the DNC on the abuses of the carceral state even if it is remains terrible on labor rights and OSHA.

Didn't @ianboudreau.com launch the term Founder Brain a few months ago? TIL that Wharton School alums are heroes doomed to suffer Founder Brain due to the sacrifices they make without the vast safety net of mental health support the rest of us have. magazine.wharton.upenn.edu/digital/inve...

FIVE HUNGER STRIKES at detention centers across the US on going now.

Ramping up the constant fear of family separation with a Hobson's choice: take the risk of leaving the country "temporarily" to apply for a green card (what could go wrong?) or stay while your status expires and become an "illegal."

Shut Delaney Hall down, NOW.   Today, @menendez.house.gov and I went to Delaney Hall because of the inhumane conditions we've been hearing about.   What I saw and heard is absolutely unacceptable.

ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.

Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

EXACTLY!

Western CT DSA in Stamford on Jan. 10. Tremendous response from motorists - honking, leaning out of windows and waving. A widow in the front car of a funeral procession gave a thumbs up all the way past our line at Washington Blvd & Tresser.

Abolish ICE, my senator. You know in your heart they are Nazi wannabes. The only safe thing to do is abolish and prosecute top To bottom. They know that, too.

@indivisiblestam.bsky.social NOON, SATURDAY, Jan 10

Hundreds of people have packed into Chicago's Thalia Hall tonight for a community listening session on CPD collaboration with ICE/CBP. Police district councillors who gathered petition signatures required to hold tonight's hearing are opening by thanking the community for showing out.

Silverio Villegas González. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Mahmoud Khalil. Marimar Martinez. And thousands of names I cannot fit in a single post. ICE, DHS, and CBP lied about all of them. They lied about you, Daniel, and they lied about me. If you want to lead in 2026, it’s time to stop believing them.

I may be a retired historian but I'm still lecturing. If you are sending out any links or bibliography on Venezuela, please add me to your list! @healeyparera.bsky.social

Children will die with RFK Jr.'s new vaccine recommendations. We're NOT doing the "experts disagree" game. The US vaccine schedule was painstakingly constructed through a deep & thorough process by experts with unquestionable expertise. This is policy by fiat. It is pre-meditated murder. 1/

“Biden officials worried that attaching their names to a recommendation to limit American support for Tel Aviv would hinder their future career prospects, the former senior official said, ‘which is in itself appalling.’”

Patronizing your critics is such a Cuomo move! This cherry-picked hagiography meant to soothe centrist Dem voters alarmed that Trump backed Cuomo this weekend leaves out A LOT that happened even before the sexual assault charge forced his resignation.

Flashbacks to people being impressed by Fetterman campaigning in a patched Carhartt hoodie.

Of course the question is "win what?" but the condescension! My sign had DSA's Boycott Avelo campaign logo with a QR code and people stopped to ask me about it. It felt like two hours well spent.
