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

the vice president is a klansman

This is the sweetest thing and I hope they keep hanging out periodically

Newly Unsealed Batch Of Epstein Estate Photos Contains Rare Holographic Dershowitz

“These deals are real” is a very normal, convincing thing to say about deals.

When you read something like this without knowing a thing about cricket it feels like you’re having a stroke

Michelle Obama tried to put carrots in school lunches and they *literally* called her a communist

Getting acquitted of murder on the “was anyone sad about it on TV” standard.

Karl getting lots of credit for being prepared with the graphic here, but the original question is absurd. “Does he know that’s not true?” Like the problem is someone just needs to tell him

At some point there will be some effort to suggest that Trump lost his fast ball, or that he was “exposed” as a pedophile, but he’s been this stupid and gross from the very very beginning

Also most voters have just never thought remotely seriously about policy. “Should we get rid of illegal immigrants? Well, of course; they’re illegal!” There’s nothing deeper than that going on until they start seeing what that actually entails.

Pretty rad that a guy was able to run a multi-year campaign based on the idea that China was just going to start paying us zillions of dollars and not once did the media explain how that’s just not how the world works.

Wow, sounds real and not made up.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same

Nine months ago I put most of my hope in major institutions continuing to hold fascism in check, but had little expectation that regular people with little to no power would step up and put themselves at risk. I had it exactly backward.

Why even have media

Same interview. Incredible.

People keep sharing this like it’s a brave moment of journalism but Stephanopoulos let him filibuster TWICE on this question and then literally just ran out of time?

If your six year old child said something like this you would die of embarassment and have to have an hour long talk with them about how not to be.

This man is being Gorilla Channel'd with a rotating selection of AI slop riot porn by several known white supremacists who are secretly running the government.

Hey do you don’t have to give Goebbels “go off” time on TV. You could just not.

We don’t get to this point if we have a press that’s willing to ask the most basic questions: “How is it a disaster?” “What do you understand ‘Obamacare’ to be?” “What fixes specifically are you proposing?” Etc.

Without commenting on the particulars of this case, immigration law fundamentally treats people as irredeemable. So many things—even small and inconsequential—serve as longterm or lifelong bans with no waiver.

THEY LIKE LEGALIZED COMEDY

i think one thing people have a hard time grasping is that the central figures of the trump administration are not bad as in "the worst republican blowhard you know," but bad as in "the worst people you have ever heard of." donald trump is a serial rapist whose best friend was a pedophile.

Hemingway—the ultimate irrational confidence guy?

Remembering how Jon Stewart spent all of last year telling me that he’d grown more nuanced and wise after his retirement and that Trump v Dems wasn’t as black and white as people claimed. What a ridiculous fuckwad he turned out to be.

Immigrants are a social good, anti-immigrant propaganda is basically all lies, and any approach to the "problem" that doesn't start form those two points is worthless

The Times is so cooked

They’re going to start drone killing border crossers
