Modern day MURDERLAND

We devoted three episodes of the Into the Mix podcast to this issue, and I’ll never forget reporting for it. The people here are so full of life, and their unnatural deaths are so normalized.

IMPEACH BONDI NOW! Bondi has created a culture of fraud, corruption, and the violent silencing of political speech in service to Trump. Her lawlessness has become policy. Impeachment is warranted to attempt to salvage the integrity of the Office of the Attorney General and to protect our democracy.

easy slogan for the next democratic presidential candidate is “i will reform the corrupt supreme court and repeal citizens united”

keep it up

PLEASE and AMEN!

Let's dream better, people.

We could have a government "for the people." We could.

How long before they all start charging us to get rid of the ai features they keep trying to shove at us?

Just finished booking flights for a trip to Korea. It’s my partner’s first time and I’m sure it’s gonna blow her mind. The food. The walkable neighborhoods. The excellent public transit. The single-payer healthcare. The immediate impeachment and arrest of a president after a coup attempt.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Whiny dicks

Hot damn

RESIGN

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.

Nothing is too low--

Abolish ICE and DHS.

see how easy it is when they're not as rich and powerful? now keep going

Just affirming how much I've despised the smarmy David Brooks

Over at @literaryhub.bsky.social today, I have an excerpt from my book BALLOT about the failures of courts to protect multiracial voting blocks under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act both in Galveston County, Texas, and in my own congressional district in Georgia.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

My ideal version of America is what I saw Bad Bunny encapsulate: multicultural, multigenerational, queer, empathetic, and full of raucous love.

Fact check: The widely promoted claim that President Biden and his son each received $5 million in bribes from a Ukrainian energy company was based on information from an FBI informant who has now been sentenced to federal prison for fabricating the story. =====================

I feel like Los Angeles is a place where people expect ICE to happen because the kidnappings have been happening to my home city for decades, so there’s less media attention to it now. and I want folks to see that in LA, Latine students are organizing major protests & the police are attacking them

One man tracking people being deported & deportation flights at the Minneapolis airport. One person creating a record for future inquiries & potential prosecutions. Trevor Paglen's deep surveillance documentation now being done by everyday people. www.npr.org/2026/02/06/n...

You know how I keep saying that every damn skill and capacity is needed in this moment??? What do you know how to do that can serve in this critical time??

What?

Humans warehoused in camps for months, some for years. Remarkable organizers doing all to support, monitor, and relay from outside. Indie media like @lataco.bsky.social, started as a taco site, now the vanguard of journalism in this country, deserving your $. lataco.com/captive-loti...

If only Donald's icy, withholding parents had loved him, none of this embarrassingly needy bullshit would be happening. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside. What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there? I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

The people whose names literally show up thousands of times in the Epstein files want you to think a 5-year-old refugee and star kindergarten student is the problem with this country rather than the white pedophiles in charge of it who keep stealing American money and assaulting American children

Happening now in Silicon Valley: marchers have surrounded the Palantir building and are holding a prayer vigil for victims of ICE, while video of ICE and Palantir crimes is projected on the building. #abolishice #iceout #palantir #paloalto

Let everything happening radicalize you.

Stop callinge them "data centers" and starte callinge them "slop peripherals"

This is amazing.

#Minneapolis Personal Me: This is so much b.s. This AM, neighbors on my friend’s block foiled a kidnapping despite being assaulted and gassed. A school bus driver had to block the door to keep them from entering the bus while they were at it. 4 legal observers were kidnapped near us yesterday. 😡

In the past week we've learned ICE has secured property to build human warehouses in Merrimack, NH and Williamsport, MD. Just some facts I think bear repeating.

holy shit

Apparently there was a city meeting in Hutchins, Texas, tonight. Hutchins is the location of DHS's newly announced 10,000-person concentration camp. What I've been told is that city officials were unanimously and adamantly opposed to it. Unfortunately, I'm seeing this nowhere online.

😭💔 This fucking country

What's glossed over a bit here is it took this guy who proved it like 25 years and a huge community push and tons of advocacy to make this happen. Same with guy who figured out you should wash hands before surgery. We think "why should all this obvious shit be so hard?" But it's ALWAYS been hard

Just reading "Murderland"by Caroline Fraser and the way we polluted and the fight against regulation (continuing today) is UNCONSCIONABLE
