The first person a tyrant oppresses is their own.

I think it's bad to assign blanket blame to a country's entire populace for the actions of a deeply unpopular leader, especially when many of those people are far more victims of that deeply unpopular leader than you will ever be.

While getting ready for work this morning I decided to check the schedule, see which of my coworkers I'd be working with today. Man am I glad I did. I thought I worked today and was off tomorrow, apparently I had that backwards, and am actually off today

This is a...this is a hell of a thread.

I’m going to keep hammering this point: the excesses of ICE we see now are entirely contiguous with our system of policing more broadly, and the reason that almost no politician wants to threaten real consequences for ICE agents is because it opens the door to making the same demands of the cops

One of the biggest failures of US history education, not accurately describing fascists as the absolute imbecilic ninnies they are.

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention. The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

"I'm totes a Gavin Newsom hater, but here's why you have a MoRaL iMpErAtIvE to fully support him now, before the primary season has even started"

Holy shit. Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

VBNMW is literally just blueMAGA

The Trump-Vance administration just used your taxes to pay for an ICE agent to do this to a 21-year-old kid, who was only protesting because another ICE agent killed a mother of three, who was only there because ICE agents are kidnapping your neighbors

Screenshots of some of the documents found in looted ICE vehicles from one of the livestreams before it got turned "private" on YouTube (after the other one already was). Share widely and make sure the genie can't go back in the bottle.

ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

When people inevitably go "throwing grenades at babies is NOT who we are, ICE is NOT acting like legitimate law enforcement" etc: Cops have a long history of throwing grenades at babies. Without any consequence.

Sooo, a non-union tv show?

This! This is what we want!!

BREAKING: Hundreds of sensitive U.S. records obtained by WIRED undercut the Trump administration’s claims portraying Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua as a unified terrorist force invading the country. Intelligence agencies spent much of 2025 unsure TdA even functioned as an organization on U.S. soil.

i think it’s pretty fair to consider CBS straight fascist government media, trumps administration is clearly drip feeding them narratives and “scoops” and obviously CBS will run them with zero regard for fact

In the last 4 days: -- Elise Slotkin says she's being criminally investigated by DOJ -- ICE illegally goes "door to door" in Minneapolis -- FBI raids the home of a WP journalist -- DHS illegally arrests, detains 100+ Somalians with legal refugee status

🧵 Oglala Sioux Tribe Issues Treaty-Based Demand for Immediate Federal Action Following ICE Detention of Tribal Citizens “This is not a misunderstanding or an enforcement discretion issue," President Star Comes Out stated.

So much wrong with this but…they sold his phone?!? Like, for profit?? Now ICE can just confiscate and pawn your property???

The cognitive dissonance required to believe the Democratic establishment is not willingly complicit in this at this point is almost as bad as the cognitive dissonance MAGA has in believing Trump and co. are still a good thing for America and them. (1/2)

As someone who voted for Kamala Harris let me remind everyone that gaslighting voters about valid Democrat criticisms only made the majority of registered Gen Z NOT vote in 2024. It wasn’t Gaza, it was capitulation and gaslighting.

Oh brother am I going to be cross referencing some freakin databases www.thedailybeast.com/personal-det...

People not in Minnesota: please read this excellent summary of what life is like in Minneapolis since the murderous scum ICE swarmed here. And more are on their way. By local reporter / writer / bike dude / legend @dbrauer.net .

Something horrifying is happening in America: Because he was filming ICE Nazis, whuch is protected under the constitution, an American citizen in St. Paul, Minnesota was brutalized to the point of becoming unresponsive. What happened in Nazi Germany is happening in America. 😳👇

Eric Adams, former NYC mayor, launched a memecoin (cryptocurrency) today. He marketed it as an “NYC Token” and used media appearances and his social media to promote it. Within hours, Adams then drained its liquidity, apparently having scammed investors out of $3.4 million—a move called a rug pull.

Scott Adams dying at 68 rather than 69 is the perfect capstone to a life of being almost — but not quite — funny

Yea, a lot of Democrats especially in the Senate are to the right of Reagan at this point.

the only reason "abolish ICE" is seen as radical is that no one will say it but the far left. if every normie Democrat started saying it tomorrow it would move the overton window so far you'd have to squint to find it. my kingdom for leaders who understand they can shape public opinion.

They know what they're doing is evil

people will make fun of a person by changing their name to a similar sounding opposite-gender name and then if a person is trans, they will say “you mean [dead name]” The consistent aspect is attacking someone’s personhood by attacking their gender and undermining their reality

I have a solution. Quit your job as the American gestapo you fascist fucks.

A typical reaction “but if the government bow to prisoners being held indefinitely without trial, then simply everyone will go on a 71 day hunger striker to the point of death to get what they want”

I am once again reminding you all that the UK government introduced an Online Safety Act that is effectively a porn ban on most adult porn websites, but is dithering over banning a website that is actually creating child porn.

Leaked documents about ICE deployment to Minneapolis suggests they're more worried about the backlash to Renee Good's death than they're letting on: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/immigratio...

We are far past the stage of permissiveness with white-supremacist violence inside DHS. We are witnessing ICE transition into a death squad. This cannot be reformed. The only question is who will fight to abolish it, and who will accommodate it instead.

It’s been one month since 100% of the Epstein files were due by Act of Congress. Thus far they’ve only released .6% of them and are using murder and war to distract you from this fact.

For an agency called I.C.E. they certainly don't seem to know how to handle, you know, ice

When the far right start openly using Nazi propaganda be very afraid and angry and get campaigning!!!

Or ... or you'll ... shoot the babies? DHS I don't know if you were all absent on training day but you can't shoot babies even if you don't like their parents. There is nothing that can be happening with a baby that makes it ok to shoot babies.

Uhhnya Porter speaks out after her father, Keith Porter was killed by an off duty ICE agent on New Year’s Eve. /

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...
