There are 3,800 kids in ICE custody.

These people literally are doing less than nothing. They’re literally pacifying the population in place of doing anything to stop the fascist violence that is exploding around us at the same time trying to spin it as a massive win. They are going to kill more people and get angry at those protesting

Reminder that if you're arrested in Illinois for protesting ICE, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected]. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.

I was just following orders

Just started doing new data analysis and I know I keep saying this, but: I really, really don't think people appreciate how much this moral panic was a deliberate and extremely expensive invention.

"These fucking assholes are not going to get away with this," she said before continuing to speak. That should the message to Trump and Republicans who put targets on the backs of anyone they disagree with.

it’s really hard to square the courage of ilhan omar with the fecklessness of her colleagues that have done essentially nothing to publicly support her while the president of the united states threatens and attacks her

Let’s see who the new Honduran government of Nasry Asfura named as its Minister of Indigenous Peoples, I’m sure it was a sensible choice

Nine DAs are coalescing to work on prosecuting federal agents for 'overreach': —L. Krasner in Philly —J. Creuzot in Dallas —M. Moriarty in Minneapolis —L. Conover in Tucson —S. Descano in Fairfax (VA) —R. Fatehi in Norfolk (VA) —S. Morales in Portsmouth (VA) —P. Dehghani-Tafti in Arlington (VA)

I didn't anticipate them coming for the inviolability of consular premises next, but that's on me.

The School District of Philadelphia remains closed - ahem, I mean on VIRTUAL INSTRUCTION - for a third day. Possibly because the city still hasn't cleared midt of the side streets in South Philly

He’s was and will forever be a tzaddik. Translation: they crucified a saint.

we are witnessing historic backpedaling here

longshoremen remain staying on the right side of history

“Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and her close adviser Corey Lewandowski, who were Bovino’s biggest backers at DHS, are also at risk of losing their jobs, two of the people told me.”

BREAKING Greg Bovino has been removed as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will return to El Centro Calif, where he is expected to retire soon. A stunning turnaround after Pretti killing. Bovino's traveling blue city crackdown is over www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Sent this to my MOC: ICE and CBP have been terrorizing Minneapolis and other American cities for months. Just this month, they have murdered two people in broad daylight, refused to allow medical professionals to render aid to the victims, /1

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

I just want to make it clear that it was *Border Patrol* agents who murdered Alex Pretti, and those fuckers murder people regularly here along the border. Renee Good´s murderer is also a former Border Patrol agent (currently ICE). Disband ALL the paramilitary groups and prosecute every member.

Children protesting inside a detention center is breaking me tonight. end all detention. Free these children. Free them all.

when the driving range guys are talking about masked agents of the state you’ve probably made a strategic error if you’re the state

What cities around the world have really interesting, dynamic intellectual “scenes”? Want to tell the story/paint a portrait of such a “scene” — especially in the Global South — for @newlinesmag.bsky.social’s Global Thought series? Pitch me: [email protected] newlinesmag.com/topic/global...

The demand for the voter database shows how this is all wrapped up into one project -- white supremacy. I wonder how all the "DEI went too far" people feel now

Bruh. Bruh. Bruhhhhhh.

“Only hours have passed since they shot a man right in front me and I don't feel like I can go home because I heard agents were looking for me. I don't know what the agents will do when they find me.”

what the heck

humvees at Union Station

Chuck Schumer says Senate Dems won't support DHS funding. This thing is really moving now.

From now on I'm calling everyone killed by these fascist goons, detained or in the streets, martyrs of the revolution.

The DHS funding bill is effectively dead in the Senate.

I found this bit, by a journalist who has written about CBP and ICE for many years, to be really instructive on how shockingly and persistently lawless those agencies, and especially CBP, have been for their entire existence, for more or less the same reason. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...

A prison revolt *by children*

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

may his memory be a revolution

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Dystopian levels of lies.

In an effort to prevent the racist president who is infesting the White House from erasing knowledge of Black History and slavery, please see this photo album I created of the history of President Washington as a slave owner. View my photos at: srhphotos.smugmug.com/George-Washi...

WHO removing Us Flag

Jonathan Ross—the ICE fascist who killed Renee Good—is an 18-year ICE veteran, firearms instructor, & active shooter trainer. The people claiming "ICE needs more training" are missing the point. Ross's 2 DECADES of training IS what led him to execute Good. ICE Training IS the problem. Abolish ICE.

With most psychedelic drugs, you never know what you're going to get. But this mysterious mushroom from China - without fail - causes users to hallucinate tiny people: crawling up walls, popping out from under furniture and marching under doors. www.bbc.com/future/artic...

I wasn't sure what to expect from a group of Democratic state AGs, but I definitely was not expecting a long monologue about Ruby Ridge and the Boston Massacre www.theverge.com/policy/86588...

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

Signs about the history of slavery in the U.S. and the 9 people George Washington enslaved are being removed right now at the President’s House Site in Philadelphia, across from Independence Hall, months after the Trump administration threatend to do so. How far we have not come in 250 years.

Areas under this winter storm watch include: all y'all.
