For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL: When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

Who’s next? One demotion cannot detract from accountability. Greg Bovino and Trump’s agents must still be held responsible for the killings and the damage they’ve done to America.

Cosponsors are good. Cosponsors without ever forcing a vote on it, not so much. And any one of them could force that vote at any time, and do it as many times as they want.

Friends, I recommend you ALL get on the phones and or send emails first thing tomorrow telling @democrats.senate.gov NO FUNDING FOR ICE. NONE. They are, per Chris Coons, planning to negotiate body cameras. This willl not change the violence, the invasions of our cities.

The Trump admin is scrambling because the secret police it sends out for kidnappings and rioting has been killing people on video then brazenly lying about it, but Schumer's instinct is to whip his caucus into taking a position *more conservative* than that held by the median voter. He's got to go.

There's been a lot of discussion about the echoes of the civil rights movement in the protests today, with people obviously drawing comparisons between the strategies, tactics and coalitions that were vital then and are still vital now. But this post has me thinking about a different echo ...

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Pro Football Hall of Famer John Randle posted a statement about ICE as text overlays on various portraits of himself and I kind of love it

I'm glad the worst people on earth are on their back foot today but until the two murderers are arrested and prosecuted this is all fluff

As seen on r/nursing Alex Pretti's coworkers taking a moment of silence to honor him

ICE/GOP/corporate Dems/Trump are DOWN but not OUT. Now it is time to (metaphorically) KICK THEM. Never forgive, never forget.

Important not to lose sight of what’s starting up in Maine right now.

@michaellivingston.com just reached the point in “The Two Hundred Years War” (incredible, 10/10) in the siege of Orléans where the cannoneer’s kid no-scopes the Earl of Salisbury in the tower window and I AM HOLLERING

Weird that hiring away a few checked-out Tory alcoholics from British dailies and emphasizing op eds about Why Your Boss Deserves A Tax Cut didn't deliver better results but what can you do? What, at the end of the day, can you do?

The same people who cannot control a city of 400,000 are manifestly incapable of cancelling a midterm or ending the peaceful transition of power. Keep reminding yourself that you are a lot stronger than they are.

They kill us for their sport.

Idk I kinda think we should bring beliefs like this back. Tell them we gotta fix global warming asap or the Leviathan will escape. We gotta sacrifice another billionaire to the ocean or the harvest will be bad and food will get more expensive

@amerrill2.bsky.social the first time I saw this (2002?) I laughed so hard I almost vomited.

I have a great idea for retraining ICE agents: defector.com/i-have-a-gre...

The largest Trump superPAC donor so far this cycle is the president of OpenAI

Holy hell @martywombacher.bsky.social @frasca.bsky.social Carniceria Román No. 1 on Wisconsin has red and green tamales hot and ready to go today, while supplies last. They are the real deal. Not a drill. Go now.

In Ewa Beach on Oahu, there is a plaque dedicated to WWII dead in the Pacific, and this is a real name on it. I took this photo myself. Thanks for your service, Private Penis.

in 1973, basque separatists killed spain’s fascist prime minister with a bomb so powerful it launched the car he was in clear over a five story building. he survived the initial attack but died in the hospital

Do thou, too, remain warm among ice.

When the CBP or ICE agent that Stephen Miller is trying to get killed dies, it is extremely important that every member of the media be told, repeatedly and loudly, that they wanted this and that people called it out in advance.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

Kyle Rittenhouse was on Infowars the day after the Renee Good shooting saying he had heard on X that Renee was putting cigarettes out on her kids. This wasn't true. This is a government by and for school shooters and their apologists.

not for nothing but their '24 VP pick and his state are under complete, murderous siege and the Dem establishment can't even muster some united front to help their VP pick, their guy from 18 months ago, nevermind giving a fuck about the citizens. Depraved

Understand: They only mean "2nd Amendment Rights" for themselves.

It's time to abolish Trump’s ICE.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

I’m in Minneapolis a lot for work and I go to this donut shop whenever I can to get treats for our clients. I have parked right there so many times.

At the point where I will gladly serve my country in this specific effort

well. time to get up, pull on thermal layer, get dressed, and get out there. Remember, if they get me, politicize the hell out of it. then get back out there. They can’t kill us all.

I have always maintained that this was a personal decision but I think we’re close to reaching a point where I start to judge folks who haven’t cut off the people in their life who still support Trump

The reason people aren't retaliating with violence is NOT because they're not just as angry as you are. It's because normal people do not have an organized military with automatic weapons and bombs, and retaliating violently will get their neighbors fucking killed.

All of them. At every level. Logistics, admin, the lowliest, most distant pencil-pushers. All of them. Every single one. Even if it takes decades to find them all and the last ones are old and remorseful when they get caught. All of them.

Pretty good

if you have any leftover cabbage i made this today and it was tastyyyyyy

Ah crap my perceived in-group status didn't shield me from the inevitable violence of fascism. I had been really counting on that. That was my load-bearing identity. @flaminghydra.com flaminghydra.com/what-it-has-...

ICE detained a 2-year-old girl in Minneapolis and put the child on a flight to a detention center in Texas, despite a court ordering her release: www.startribune.com/agents-detai...
