They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

Was “get out alive” part of Woke?

“The administration” didn’t find billions for bombs, Congress gave the U.S. military billions for bombs. Trump is just using them up.

Trump’s 2016 criticism of the Iraq war was the US didn’t do enough war crimes. He argued that the US should’ve stolen oil and killed insurgents’ innocent family members. That’s what some prominent media figures presented to the public as isolationist, anti-intervention, anti-war, “Donald the Dove.”

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

This obviously very stupid but is it also smart? We’ll talk to some liars after this break.

We genuinely need a revival of virtue in the United States. In my view, that’s almost as critical a project as any other structural reform project necessary in the wake of trumpism. We should become a society that actually values human life such that we would feel shame about this.

I keep seeing people say “wow, Trump is really rambling and incoherent,” but he’s been this way since 2017! youtu.be/5BIr4gtgVZs?...

This is a reminder of thing #237,595 that would have sunk any other political career in US history: Trump calling a People magazine reporter in the 90’s and pretending to be his own publicist, bragging about how bad Madonna wanted to fuck Trump:

Shout out to the wife and kids but doing corruption for the pedo president is #1

In the concentration camp universe, this is what's known as a filtration camp. A government preemptively takes a whole class of people to interrogate and detain extrajudicially in order to inflict duress on them while arbitrarily assessing their (supposed) culpability.

Amazing. Democrats are still bragging about deporting more people than Trump, breaking up more families, destroying more lives, causing more harm to communities. And she's lying about children in camps, Obama built child & family detention at scale in 2014.

This, basically:

straight up Gestapo shit

Not talking to this guy is an option. You could always just not. Do something else. Do literally anything else.

I know it’s easy to long for a time when republicans seemed “normal,” but Mitt Romney ran his 2012 presidential campaign on the idea of “self deportation,” which was that if we could just make life so miserable for immigrants they would give up on trying to make a life here…

During the Obama administration the right wing media machine would dream up conspiracies that Obama was *thinking* about doing something like what we’re seeing now (Jade Helm, FEMA Camps, etc) and it would drive their “coverage” for weeks and months

Showing us all the real reason they wear masks

Look…the Davos speech was bad, and I don’t mean to sound like a Trump hipster or something, but like…literally all his campaign speeches sounded exactly like this

Things worth really hammering to any family and acquaintances whose reflexive attitude is “but we gotta enforce the law”: (1) Lots of the folks being targeted came here legally; the administration has retroactively declared them “illegal” despite having done nothing wrong

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

this alone is worth an impeachment tbh

On the ground here in Minnesota, it’s hard to reconcile the immense bonds of community that have been built in a week with the fact that we live in a country whose government appropriated billions of dollars to an unaccountable paramilitary force whose sole purpose is ethnic cleansing.

Since last spring ICE has been claiming in their paperwork that they were doing “targeted” enforcement against individuals with warrants but the facts show they’re hanging out in parking lots, running plates and scanning faces. Surveillance state gone wild.

You need to draft a special little law that is already covered explicitly by the founding document? Why? Impeach him now.

every day involves grappling with how embarrassing it is that the secret police are so embarrassing, just complete losers incapable of visiting the men’s room alone, who cannot comprehend why people are calling themselves bums to their faces

Worth noting that, here in Yakima at least, HSI officers—who are normally tasked with anti trafficking, anti terrorism investigations—are now hanging out in Home Depot parking lots running license plates on random Hispanics.

Koby Don Williams, 49, an ICE officer from Ellensburg, WA was sentenced in 2024 to 11 years in prison after arranging to meet what he thought was a 13-year-old sex worker at a hotel. He showed up with Viagra, $4,000 in cash, and his ICE badge. He was immediately arrested.

"Bring back the INS" INS gave us Japanese-American Internment & Operation W******. INS & ICE both committed atrocities. The problem isn't the name, it's the function. Abolishing ICE doesn't mean cosmetic reforms & a new (or old) name. It means ending deportation as a government function.

We need to get it lodged more firmly in the discourse that Trump and Stephen Miller are prioritizing removing nonviolent immigrants over public safety. They are sinking so many resources into their ethnic purification project that they're putting us in more danger. newrepublic.com/article/2041...

Do you still call it “the regime” if like….you’re…now the regime? “The regime” is actually downstream from you….

I am begging for congressional democrats to be pushing actual amnesty/immigration reform every single day. Show us what you’re actually going to do to change this.

TFW you wake up from a 12 year coma.

Was there any commentary or recognition from the MSM of the fact that Trump was slurring, falling asleep, and generally saying insane things at this morning’s presser?

A college sophomore at an Occupy rally could not have generated such a grotesque outsized caricature of US imperialism

if you are talking today about how bad maduro was and were alive, at all, during the run-up to the iraq war you are potentially the dumbest person to ever live

Skipping over the pretext to go straight to “you can’t believe how sick this operation was” is so perfect for this administration. Chef’s kiss.

Hey so this is crazy

All your favorite hits, including “Oh So your Think Saddam is Like a GREAT Guy?”

Classic song about how sick and rad it is to do wars.

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries. Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves. "Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks. "No, guess he should've complied," agent says. Yakima, Washington
