Cynicism is a dark slimy inert energetic. It is immobile and immobilizing. It is a prison without walls. That’s what they want—human drones and slaves. Start with a thought, a hope, a prayer, a post, self care. Then a community meeting, a training, a protest Get physically strong. Move! Believe.

The Justice Department’s prosecution of the reporters Don Lemon and Georgia Fort is “best understood not as law enforcement but as propaganda,” Quinta Jurecic argues: theatln.tc/fcStyVnv

ETTD. Trump & Co. are burning it all down. We will build anew—build back better.

“Thoughts and prayers” has finally awakened to “pray and protest.”

People are reading this way wrong. Schumer detached DHS from the other five bills in return for a two week CR on the DHS bill. Now Democrats can make demands on DHS spending without having to shut down agencies covered in the other five bills. They have way more leverage to get real concessions.

Minneapolis has seen a stunning 1,646% spike in calls from families who can't pay rent because they're afraid to leave their homes to work. This is state violence manufacturing housing precarity in real time. People should not be facing eviction when their city is under occupation.

In JD Vance’s world, Jonathan Ross is both the hero and the victim. The woman he killed? She’s the perpetrator, solely responsible for her own death. This is peak abuser language and a public battering of a woman killed by an abusive government agent. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/ruthzaka...

say it with me now... FUCK ICE Happening now in Dallas ✊🏽✊🏻✊🏾✊🏼✊🏿

Epstein files.

Insane corruption

Y’all know that the reason that Trump and Co. don’t want any government services is because they want to steal all the money-yes. This is not a difficult concept. Rapists, all.

The president of the United States had his Justice Dept. raid an election office and seize ballots in order to cast doubt on an election he lost. Yet, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day. I founded Democracy Docket because you deserve better. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Democratic Congressmen have hired bouncer-goons, too?

Truly insane

He’s not stupid, he’s a sadist. The goal is not governance or harmony - it’s pain, chaos, and blood. He’s not stupid, he has different goals.

Fake-out. Don’t let up, Minnesota! Don’t let up, USA.

ICE is in Ypsilanti waiting at bus stops for parents to drop off their kiddos From Washtenaw Sheriff Dyer:

Holy moly this chart: Cumulative US measles cases

On top of everything else, they voted. Minnesota voters showed up through freezing temperatures and violence in the streets, cold-blooded public assassinations, home invasions and kidnapping—and won.

Pope Leo’s top U.S. ally — Cardinal Joseph Tobin — calls on Congress to defund ICE.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years. These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Just a great game all around

An insane, perfect encapsulation of it all: The same day Trump’s agents kill a Veterans Affairs ICU nurse in broad daylight, the CEOs of Apple and Amazon join Trump to watch a private screening of a film about his wife directed by an alleged sexual abuser who was seen shirtless in the Epstein Files

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Now AG Pam Bondi is using ICE as leverage to extort MN Gov Tim Walz. This is Trump’s tried and true formula: inflict pain and then demand payment to make it stop. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Wow 👀 🤬 Former Sniper reviews ICE shooting and uncovers what ACTUALLY happened

Critical! Make the calls, please!!!

Rep. @aoc.bsky.social : “ICE is attacking 🇺🇸 citizens, kidnapping 5-year-olds and using them as bait to open doors, and violating constitutional rights by busting into their doors… They deserve to be defunded." (H/T @meidastouch.com )

It’s ALL a theft of people’s lives/labor, wealth, land and resources. Stealing EVERYTHING. Sucking the life out of the whole world 🌎.

NEW: What’s predicted to be the biggest challenge facing American voters? 📬Mail voting. Local election officials across the country are already warning voters about the new USPS rule change that could put them at risk of going uncounted. https://bit.ly/45wm9h8

Rod Stewart calls out “draft dodger” Trump for denigrating the service of allied combat vets, and says that PM Keir Starmer must insist that Trump publicly apologize.

The Case to Abolish ICE and Launch Establishment Democrats into the Sun After 7 Dems voted to fund DHS and ICE's ongoing terror campaign, what more evidence do you need to see that establishment, corporate politicians are part of the problem and not the solution? open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!
