True liberals have spent centuries fighting and dying on the barricades so their brothers and sisters can have a world where they are free to live as they please in a society governed by reason and law, not arbitrary force

This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan. A citizen. Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold. "We're from the United States bro!' he screamed. Agents took and sold his phone And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

One basic pattern here is that DHS officials are engaging in violence simply because they are irritated at citizens protesting them. There is no plausible threat of violence here. He just wants to inflict pain, and believes there will be no penalty for doing so.

Still can't get over how Apple and Google removed the ICE app that alerted people that ICE was in the their community, but won't remove an app that has an AI tool that creates 'nonconsensual sexualized images of women and CHILDREN'

Iâm seeing a lot of people predict that âthe right wing media is going to turn this story for Trumpâ and âtheyâre going to work overtime to make America forget thisâ and you should tell that to all these people out there in Minnesota in fucking January. This can matter. This will matter.

what this should make clear to everyone in this country is that it does not matter who you are, there's no "it could never happen to me" you can be a white woman who drives around with stuffed animals in her car, and they will still kill you in cold blood and call you a domestic terrorist

The killing of an unarmed woman by a masked federal agent in Minneapolis is a moral outrage and a betrayal of American values. There has been no justification offeredâonly deception and deflection from those in charge.

I don't know how to describe it, but there's this profound brokenness in the American body politic where nobody can take the implications of anything seriously. People keep saying things that should be existential threats to the political system, and then everyone just keeps going on as normal.

Dem bigwigs are inclined to ignore this stuff from Trump, which they correctly see as provocation slop. But this instinct to turn the other cheek has failed us again and again. It has created a norm in which he can act like this. Force Republicans to talk about it. Make it uncomfortable for them.

On Jack Smith deposition, now released: 100% obvious why GOP refused to allow this as open testimony, aired live. It's damning. Testimony from John Dean or Alex ("wiretaps") Butterfield in Watergate days would have 1/10th the impact if just in print. What Smith says is far more incriminating.

It's a good commentary on 2025 that the US President announces a major military attack on a foreign country and even the straightest arrows think, 50% chance it's an attack, 50% chance president is on another cognition bender.

271,000 people have lost their jobs and federal spending has ctually increased. So people get less services, while we added debt paying for private jets for Kristi Noem, bulletproof cars for Kash Patel. This is what the rust belt voters demanded.

Governor Bob Ferguson endorses millionairesâ tax on high earners, unveils austerity-centric supplemental operating budget
The proposed operating budget, presented ahead of the 2026 legislative session that's slated to begin on January 12th, would make $797 million in cuts, recover $391 million for the treasury through revenue shifts and closing tax preferences, use $123 million in other funds, and tap close to $1 billion from the rainy day fund.
