If you're curious about what's going on outside the Portland ICE administrative building, a local station is livestreaming for 24 hours today: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PE-W...

Portland is so good at trolling these fascists. I ❤️ Portland

I begged @spiegel.de to translate Jörg Schindler's excellent reporting on America's fall into theocracy and they did. As I keep saying, German journalists are doing a better job covering America's fall than American journalists. 1/ www.spiegel.de/internationa...

This is outrageous! ICE cannot be abolished soon enough. 📺 bsky.app/profile/bunn...

The flash apparently official. CBS News died at 1pm central standard time, 2pm eastern standard time, some 38 minutes ago.

Much of it is by design. Watch how many small farms get gobbled up by oligarch owned agro corporations in the coming months. None of what they’re doing is about making America stronger. It’s about transferring more wealth and ownership to the oligarchs.

OMG do I ever feel this pain

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

“Former Washington Post opinion columnist Catherine Rampell is joining The Bulwark, where she will write a weekly economics and policy-focused newsletter while contributing to the company’s podcasts and YouTube channels.”

“There are actions taken by officials and individuals that tear at the fabric of the republic; there are long and circular arguments about the officiousness of all these violations, demanding not only that opponents allow for their continuation but treat their degradation as a positive good.”

@psychopete.bsky.social Both Budget & UHAUL trucks were used in the Chicago apartment raid...both to get agents there & take handcuffed children away. Let 'em know what u think: Budget 18002187992 UHAUL 18007893638

📽️ VIDEO: Republicans who resisted Donald Trump after years of enabling him are not heroes and do not deserve credit. Marc Elias emphasizes that framing them as such ultimately serves Trump's agenda. Watch below👇 https://bit.ly/48aleVG

The government does not have the power to declare “free speech zones.” And the violent arrest of the rabbi should set off some alarm bells.

This is why Trump is sending national guard to Portland

"Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared." Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

The funniest thing about this is how legit terrified ICE looks.

Here it is, my answer for every time I get asked "why don't (most) Dems just...[message better, be bolder, sound authentic...etc]" www.weekendreading.net/p/bringing-a...

ABOLISH ICE. Pass it on.

Gotta respect that they keep one-upping themselves. Every day is both way dumber and far worse than the last.

"Residents said the signs started cropping up early on in the administration, after Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) dismantled the US foreign aid agency and haphazardly purged government employees. . ."

This by @katmabu.bsky.social is the best speech I've heard yet by any politician about what ICE/Trump/Noem is doing and it's not close.

Dems urged by pollster to let Americans 'touch the stove' — and reap GOP consequences

Elon's pipe dreams cost real people all of their dreams #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall

As a new Democrat, I was thinking today that if I run for President in 2028, I’d tell voters that one of the 1st things I’d do as Prez will be to bulldoze Trump’s gross ballroom. A monstrosity that’ll destroy the character of the people’s house. I’d pledge to bulldoze that fucking ballroom on day 1.

It's cool how many news reports I'm seeing about impending federal layoffs and safety net cuts that fail to note that all of this is very obviously illegal.

Welcome to America, where masked and armed federal officials will chase you down if you criticize the President.

MAGA: why won’t the radical, lunatic, communist, America-hating, enemy of the people libtards stop calling us names?

The footage of ICE patrols swarming random people in major urban areas is chilling

The one pro-ICE guy they found to interview downtown today being a suburbs-based casino marketer and erotica convention entrepreneur named Larry Goone might be the thing that tips me over into We're Living In A Bad Fic territory

It’d be great if America could get past the reflexive blame game after every shooting in this country and start focusing on the actual root causes: gun culture, gamer culture, young men getting radicalized online, and mental health. Otherwise, it’s just going to keep happening—left or right.

Confiscatory taxes on high incomes NOW.
