It’s one thing to hear about the impact of ICE policies; it’s another to see a lifetime of strength dissolve into tears of pure anger. When a 70-year-old tells you they’ve never seen it this bad, it’s time to listen. 😢

“Rite”

We break down the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti, frame-by-frame, starting 10 a.m. EST. #Velshi

Warning Violent images in 🧵 When you tell ICE & DHS agents that they have absolute immunity, When you take FBI officials off the Renee Good murder case who then resign & lie, And recruit Nazis given only 47 days of training You send a message that murdering Americans is fine. #ICELawlessness

UPDATE: @dropsitenews.com has obtained the very graphic video from the lady in the pink coat, which shows ICE executing yet another person in broad daylight:

Accountability for 🧊 NOW!

Four-time Grammy Award nominee Jesse Welles performs his song "Join Ice." Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.

Canada has become a leader on the global stage defending democracy. Trump will be turning his rage on us. Canada's military are already planning out the "what ifs" - a counter-insurgency defence of Canada that will destroy the American empire. This is no drill. www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6-s...

“Some men improve the world only by leaving it.” —Oscar Wilde.

No more turning away From the weak and the weary No more turning away From the coldness inside Just a world that we all must share It’s not enough just to stand and stare Is it only a dream that there’ll be No more turning away

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers. I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

South Korea's former prime minister Han Duck-soo jailed for 23 years over martial law declaration

Sometimes I listen to these reporters on CNN, NBC, ABC, etc., & wonder whether they have any awareness at all that the words they use directly inform what people believe is happening around them. I know it’s a hard job, but please! Use your power more wisely! Stop erring on the side of the powerful!

This thread though

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Yes, it is. Nice job, Cameron.

Jennings: Let's not get our knickers in a twist here McGowan: Why are you talking like that? It's insane. Your attitude is just horrifying…

Sure, Venezuela is collapsing, but look at that view!

New #TrekPolitics is underway! This week, Mary Trump and I discuss The Devil in the Dark. The one with the Horta monster. www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6ej...

The enemy of my enemy is not always my friend. Sometimes, that's a wolf in sheep's clothing...a grifting fixer with his finger in the wind.

Mood But I have to say It’s quickly growing In badassery To me… #Mm

Today is National Thesaurus Day. Personally, we find these made-up holidays contemptible, abhorrent, nauseating, repugnant, and unpalatable.

If you missed it, Ana Kasparian admitted she was wrong about Trump & fascism. Ana is a former progressive who now spends her days attacking homeless people & cozying up to Tucker Carlson while still hosting a news program she claims maintains a "progressive lens." Great work, @franifio.bsky.social!

My wife left her bag on the MTA yesterday and today… it was at lost and found! Somebody actually went through the trouble. Given how absolute shit things are, this was an unexpected kindness. I credit the good feelings engendered by the Mamdani administration. :) Also the good people at the MTA.

I had the honor to introduce my replacement on 9NEWS

Dear Peabrain-Potus, I have three cub-scout badges from 55 years ago that I would like to give you. In return can you make me president of Venezuela? #USDemocracy

The new host of the CBS Evening News interviewed Trump for 13 minutes. No questions about election denialism or subverting the midterms. Only pushback was that he would have gotten his job even if Trump lost. I started Democracy Docket because you deserve better. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

I have never heard of Corbin Trent before today, but so far this man is spitting bars.

I am calling for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agent that shot and killed Renee Good. I am also calling on Congress to support my bill with @jasmineforus.bsky.social to force ICE agents to wear body cameras, not wear masks, have visible identification & ensure ICE has independent oversight.

#GVerse The Black Panthers have re-entered the chat! The Panthers are a revolutionary socialist group that fed & protected the community. They were such a threat to the dictatorship of capital they were falsely labeled “terrorists.” Their reemergence is necessary.

#GVerse 👏 Sheriff Rochelle Bilal is very clear when she says #FuckICE WILL be arrested for illegal activity. They are “made up, fake, law enforcement. You will not be able to hide & you don’t want her smoke! #ReneeNicoleGood #DemsUnited This👇💯🇺🇸

I love the TV genre of 'characters are in a different time and/or place every episode because of a messed up science experiment and they just want to get home".

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Walk for Peace The monks on the Walk for Peace have reached South Carolina. This Saturday, January 10, at 13:45, they invite everyone to join them in Columbia — not for spectacle, but for solidarity, reflection, and the simple power of walking together in peace.

Tonight Minnesotans stood together to honor the life of Renee Nicole Good.

When Renee Good said "I'm not mad at you" what the ICE goon heard was "I'm not scared of you." That's what enraged him. The populace wasn't fully terrorized and cowed into submission yet, so he acted to make that happen.

Tags arrived for my tiny Miata. It's the server code for "insufficient storage."

There's this episode of Star Trek where Captain Picard is captured and tortured, and the main way that the torturer tries to break him is by showing him four lights, and telling him that there are five. There are four lights. This is not a post about Star Trek.

“Emerson does not have a mother today because one of you murdered a woman in cold blood yesterday.”

“Fuck ICE!” chants & a brass band performing “Which side are you on?” as hundreds march in Manhattan, NYC against ICE and in solidarity with Minneapolis.
