New from @stevevladeck.bsky.social. The problem, then, is to discover the actual goals of " the governing party’s ideological agenda)". For Curtis Yarvin, it's monarchy. Currently reading Regime Change by Patrick Deneen. He seems to want something similar. open.substack.com/pub/stevevla...

Do you know anyone who works for this company? Shame and shun, www.necam.com/en_US/biomet... Here's why. www.wired.com/story/mobile...

More than a year in this has mostly gone as I feared, and in some ways has been worse. But there have been two contrasting surprises: -- The speed and breadth of institutional capitulation -- The courage, ferocity, and resolution of regular people Our strength isn't our institutions. It's us.

Meaningless nothing from the spineless Susan Collins, whose state is currently under assault by the murderous Trump/Miller goons. Talk but no action. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/28/n...

This is precisely what's happening in the US right now. And it's going to get worse with a complicit bunch of Repubs and Vichy Dems in Congress. Impeach the marauding thugs or resign. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Translation: Ignore those Epstein Files I'm hiding to protect pedos. Ignore my rotting brain. Forget all those people I'm torturing and killing in the US. Look at this bright shiny war: we're gonna kill lots of Muslims! www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

VichyDem @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is a burden on our Republic. If he gave a damn about “burdens” on Minnesota, he’d have moved to impeach Miller, Noem, and Horman after DHS’ serial murders began there. Who will @housedemocrats.bsky.social trust: collaborator Hakeem, or Minnesota’s heroic people?

WaPo reports Bondi's "charges" with no context. wapo.st/4tnNHj9 Here's some context. In Chicago 32 indictments for non-immigration offense. So far 15.people walked. No convictions. Lazy. chicago.suntimes.com/2026/tracker...

The right-wing Eighth Circuit is directly responsible for the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. They stayed an injunction that would have prevented those deaths and countless injuries, because it was "too broad". They cannot be held accountable for their despicable ruling. Shame and Shun.

Hey #MAHA, have some nuclear waste: it's totally cool.

A five year old in ICE prison

Does (2) include statutory Bivens? Because without statutory Bivens, how do we sanction them when they break whatever code of conduct they establish? And please tell me “ICE” is sloppy shorthand for “DHS,” bc however bad ICE is, CBP is bigger and far more violent.

#DeleteMeta, all platfors. #DeleteFacebook www.wired.com/story/meta-i...

This says the demands only apply to ICE. What about the rest of the feds? CBP? HSI?, DHS? Etc.? wapo.st/4rjBNVu

ICE kidnapped 5 people from my community this morning. I don’t live in Minneapolis. I live in LA County. They’re still here and their still brutalizing.

lol fuck off "Another organization also critical of Walz's remarks includes StopAntisemitism, a grassroots watchdog organization that tracks antisemitic incidents."

Stephen Miller hates children. All Republicans support him. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/27/m...

since folks are talking about who isn't on the list of prosecutors challenging the federal government, a memory

Palantir: we pay you slugs a lot of money to help ICE/CBP, money coming from our dear friends Trump and Miller. So just take the money, ignore your conscience, and punish your fellow citizens. It's the Thiel Way. www.wired.com/story/palant...

Jared Kushner's dear friend and benefactor MBS. Is this the future he and his sick father-in-law want? www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Judge Menendez is trying to find a rule. That's possible when there are lots of cases. There aren't any cases on Trump's abuses. The common law works because Judges decide cases as best they can without rules. In this case, she can say whatever the rule is, killing people is going to be barred. 1/2

The deteriorating bag of guts increases tariffs on South Korea. This bullying is made possible by John Roberts and his SCOTUS clones who stayed lower court orders barring Trump's tariff by whim, and then sat on the case for months. You pay. Trump giggles. www.carscoops.com/2026/01/trum...

@durbin.senate.gov have you seen the decisions from the 7th and 8th Circuits allowing ICE/CBP to assault observers and protesters in Chicago and Minneapolis? Are you going to allow the killings to continue? You have a choice: your constituents or Trump/Miller.

it's not quite that yet, we're at the point where the bully is starting to realize he doesn't have the whip hand anymore. But the move from now to the tuck tail and running is gravity.

Dem leaders are predictably taking a position far the right of the vast majority of the liberal base of the party. I say progressives jam a wedge in that gap and hammer away at it. The liberal base is desperate for principled antifascist leadership and there's only one place it can come from

Nuremberg is the moderate option

Fuck Chuck. Killing in the Name is sounding like a hymn these days.

Looks like Greg Bovino is the chosen fall guy as the Trump admin scrambles to navigate the anti-ICE backlash. Reportedly being "forced into retirement" and denied access to his social media accounts. Don't accept it for a second. Keep pushing for full accountability.

Okay. Time to call your democratic senators and tell them that Bovino’s demotion and humiliation WILL NOT SUFFICE to fund DHS.

🧵 explaining the desperate need for Senate Dems to take control of ICE/CBP from Trump/Miller/Bondi/Noem. Impeach!

TACO! Trump is a loser. He couldn't beat back the stalwart people of Minneapolis. His big wins at the 7th and 8th Circuits couldn't save him. They just got people shot, Now it's up to Senate Dems to finish the job and defund ICE/CPB.

Jesus! I'm reskeeting Bill Fucking Kristol.

🧵 on Illinois Senate debate. Is this all Illinois has to offer? Where is someone with a pitchfork?

These three judges stayed an injunction that might have prevented the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Raymond Gruender Bush 2, Bobby Shepherd, Bush 2. David Stras, Trump Toad. How many more people die because of these murder neutral judges?

The Eighth Circuit owns all the death and destruction committed by ICE/CBP. They stayed an order limiting the goons' behavior: too broad they whined. Then they want us to respect their authority. Eat dirt.

The Eighth Circuit had previously issued an administrative stay of Judge Menendez's preliminary injunction, so today's ruling changes nothing in fact as to the operation. Here is today's order: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Your regular reminder that Emanuel can't carry Chicago.

Thanks, Republicans. Voters know you needed the money to give huge tax breaks to Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, and fund the murderous ICE/CBP invasions. Bonus: it aids your misery and death plans. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/26/n...

This is an excellent description of the state of things in Maine and Minnesota. The quotes from supporters reveal their lack of empathy and understanding of the situation. They make Tricia McLaughlin look childish: Just look at these pics of bad people. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/26/m...

San Fernando Valley patriots speaking the truth.

Remind me: who owns Politico? Oh yes, German right-wingers.

@durbin.senate.gov Defund ICE/CBP or resign and let a real Democrat sit in your chair.

I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity. They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.

The goons are rousting Minneapolis cops. Why would they trust any of the Fed goons? www.espn.com/espn/story/_...

We are observers, not protestors. We show up to document and film the atrocities ICE is committing. Using 5 year olds as bait. Kidnapping senior citizens. Breaking down doors without warrants. Murdering poets and nurses. Media has all of that information because *observers* were there to document it

Where are these ICE goons staying in the Twin Cities? Any hotel/motel/AirBnB that rents to them supports murder.

Seems to me that this regime is a group of fiefdoms. Maybe the election-theft fiefdom is more effective than the legal fiefdom or the gestapo fiefdom.

“Please get the truth out about our son.” Read and share the statement from the parents of Alex Pretti, the VA ICU nurse who was shot and killed by border patrol.

My friend Sara posted this about the superb care her father received from with Alex Pretti Absolutely heartbreaking
