Jumping in front of cars is like his whole brand

Part of the reason that the shootings keep happening is that immigration officials appear to have taken no steps to rein in agents who shoot civilians, Parente said.

Fabulous photo from today’s ICE Out For Good rally in Newton Centre! Thank you, all 600 of you, for making noise! #newtonindivisible

A man who has written numerous books about morality cannot say whether it’s immoral to murder someone because they mildly inconvenienced you

Temu ICE. Protestor detained escapes.

“i think ‘no kings’ is too nice a slogan” —old lady at protest today

This is insane. Brooks says everyone is too blinded by ideology to see the truth of what the video shows. Then the host asks him what it shows and he refuses to answer. “Left and right are equally to blame for everything all the time” is also an ideology!

Abuser logic

in 1939 the fascists of the world threw down a single massive bet: that the free people of the world were as weak as they imagined us to be. that we were nations of shopkeepers, who would fold at one touch of the armored gauntlet from truly hard, deadly, motivated, manly men. pic unrelated.

We came together on Boston City Hall Plaza to say ICE out of our cities now. Justice for Renee Good. Justice for immigrants. Justice for everyone being targeted by this hateful, violent administration.

Hannah Arendt on Montesquieu’s principle of despotism [fear] being subject to continual corruption: “Tyranny generates impotence as naturally as other bodies politic generate power… It develops the germs of its own destruction the moment it comes into existence.” In other words, we’re going to win

New research confirms what many of us see: there's a large internal migration of LGBTQ people in the US, especially trans people, to friendlier states & cities. Since 11/2024, 9% of all trans people have moved to another state, 43% have considered moving. www.mapresearch.org/2025-norc-su...

blue sanctuary states gotta make room and build more homes

Like I said.

you and many of your followers have probably already seen this but I thought it did a good job laying out a list of targets and categorizing strategic considerations for each vis a vis scope and lift: www.thenation.com/article/acti...

And despite it all, this is Tehran 🇮🇷

Yes.

This guy is in Minneapolis standing before an American citizen in an SUV. The only reason he's brandishing an assault rifle is because he wants the people he's purportedly there protecting to feel terrorized by his presence. This is not protection. This is occupation.

At last night’s candlelight vigil for Renee Nicole Good, Bishop Rob Hirschfeld of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire announced he had asked the clergy of the diocese to get their affairs in order and to make sure they have their wills written ...,

We visited Renee Good's memorial. There, we met a group of Somali Minnesotans — who too have been viciously attacked for weeks — warmly hosting everyone. Flowers & stuffed animals galore. Neighbors continually offering sambusas & hand-warmers & water. Grief. And belief. Scenes from Minneapolis:

James, who lives where Renee was killed: "I don't like ICE…the lady that's in charge of ICE…our vice president. I can't say I'm a Democrat…can’t say I’m a Republican.” "I will tell you like it is…Trump's a bitch. Allowing this to happen, saying that she's the problem…Why don't you come down here?"

This is exactly right. They haven't settled for dim brutes who blindly follow orders regardless of the law. That's what they want. That's what they got. There's no reforming or improving it now. Democrats need to investigate, defund, and ultimately disband the president's brownshirt brigade.

In case you were wondering about the state of discourse over on Twitter, they’re currently a) raving about a Nazi band’s song (Mannerbund) whose lyrics the DHS just tweeted out and b) having a robust debate about whether interracial marriage is sinful.

Tiny Petoskey, MI showed up and showed OUT—bundled up, boots in the snow, breath visible in the bitter cold. When even the smallest towns refuse silence, you know this movement is real. Justice doesn’t hibernate. Neither do the people. ❄️✊ #ICEOutForGood Credit to the amazing @bocksam.bsky.social

More than 5,000 people here in Powderhorn Park protesting ICE’s occupation of Minneapolis. #FuckICE #iceout #mpls #FuckTrump

When I say AI is a rhetorical technology

Hey everybody, it’s the 250th anniversary of Common Sense, whose luminous author Tom Paine, figured centrally in the American Revolution, the Enlightenment and the movement for Democracy still sweeping the Earth. The times hath found us.

In Minneapolis this afternoon— Hundreds are streaming across the snow and ice into Powderhorn Park for a rally and march demanding ICE leave Minnesota. It is bitterly cold. There are hardcore Midwesterners out here making their way in with trekking poles.

Both sides

Last I checked, Democratic Socialists weren't out in the streets in military garb shooting mothers dead in the head. 🤨

The America JD Vance wants you to believe doesn’t exist: a huge, diverse crowd here in the Deep South to march with and hear from Buddhist monks marching for peace.

Hi hello, the Toronto Sun's email is [email protected] in case you'd like to inquire as to how they feel about their Ottawa Bureau Chief making these kinds of statements about innocent women being shot by militarized thugs in the street! Let's make his weekend extra fun :)

Don't nobody want your feckless violent woman hating failsons

Thank you TCW for this instant classic of Harper’s Letter sophistry, explaining that the categories "right" & "left" are unhelpful in understanding a campaign of kidnappings & assassinations undertaken by an ultra-right wing secret police force at the behest of an ultra-right wing political regime

The right wing weaponizes state violence against dissent. In right wing fantasies the left weaponizes state violence against dissent. Both sides. Radical centrists are the elite equivalent to the violent nihilists, the assassin who chose his target by convenience, not ideology. Just sound.

Noting for the record that Thomas Chatterton Williams is not out on a limb on this one. In the University of Austin faculty lounge, it's all aboard the both-sides express

It would be less mortifying to be ruled over by people so stupid if they weren’t also so smug about it.

Some Kentucky Republicans want to ban naturalized Americans from holding public office, as the GOP drives ever-further into xenophobia. www.lpm.org/news/2026-01...

Protesters are keeping up the noise outside a hotel reportedly housing ICE agents in downtown Minneapolis. Some protesters tried to get inside the building through the main entrance, where they were turned away by security. 📸: Alex Kormann/The Minnesota Star Tribune

One thing I've been trying to keep in mind: What turns this around for the ICE/CPB/DHS Nazis? What do they do that makes people stop being angry to come out and yell at them in in the freezing cold, follow them around filming them, defending their neighbors? The answer is nothing. It will never stop

I think the assumption has been "when we start killing people, they'll shut up and fall in line." Which has not, to put it mildly, been borne out

over a certain wealth threshold you should be banned from many things and one of them is clearly group chats

twitter cooked a lot of brains among the reactionary elite but it’s got nothing on their degenerate group chats where apparently everyone is sharing tips on fascism and how to sexually exploit 22 year old stanford grads

Republicans somehow managed to sprint from “we’re trying to protect women in sports” straight to defending a woman being shot in the head three times at point blank range for trying to drive away from a masked thug.

This is not the first time I have made the observation about how many of the violent overreaction by law enforcement videos have been violence against women. The mantle of authority they are claiming is not just the state’s but masculine prerogative

This is the second time in three months a DHS agent called a US citizen a "bitch" as he shot her. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...

Also, its illegal to discuss gender in some American universities now.
