Reminder: never believe a single thing the Proud Boys say ... I MEAN a single thing ICE says.

OK, so this is going to be tough to hear, but it needs to be said. Now that Trump has been enjoined from sending *any* NG to Oregon, ICE is going to go gangbusters in Oregon, dialing everything up to 1000%. Because they need riots. They need someone punching an ICE officer. DON'T TAKE THE BAIT.

The Proud Boys stopped marching because they were all recruited into ICE. "Stand back and stand by," indeed.

The thing is, you cant fight back against the feds with your own guard troops. That's precisely the trap Trump has set, so he can then have a basis to invoke the Insurrection Act. As best I can tell there are only 3 ways forward: sue in court; impeachment; and massive nonviolent civil disobedience.

Trump and Stephen Miller are losing.

Apparently this judge had ruled that the feds cant force the submission of voter data - ! -

Reminder: the judicial branch of government is the single most effective modern defense against tyranny.

Stephen Miller is waging war on the United States.

The Trump Administration’s “Compact of Excellence” for Universities is... far from excellent! Indeed, it’s unconstitutional. In this post, let me count the ways. blog.dividedargument.com/p/the-uncons...

ICE agents who commit crimes should be prosecuted by state and local law enforcement.

"We all learned long ago on the playground that trying to appease a bully only makes things worse. It’s equally hard to imagine how higher education will recover if colleges and universities begin conceding to Mr. Trump’s illegal compact." via UC-Berkeley Law Dean 🎁 www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/o...

Great thread on the "Compact." It's rank viewpoint discrimination and government retaliation for protected speech. As a contract its provisions are unenforceable in court. Flatly unconstitutional.

Senator Murphy also lays out a clear set of codified demands that Dems can stand for. Among them: *no more using budget to punish enemies *no more using FCC to censor critics *restrictions on ICE lawlessness in interior *clear ban on troops in cities 3/ newrepublic.com/article/2013...

Are people aware of this? Russ Vought and his cabal of religious fanatics want to replace the American Republic with a hard core Christian theocracy.

Right? Where support for Palestinian rights is ipso facto "antisemitic." And this is Trumpco's trick to go after "leftwing" college campuses.

This is state-sponsored terrorism.

NEW: Judge William Young's ruling against Rubio and Noem is a lesson for all in the Trump era. Young lays bare the unconstitutionality of the Trump administration's student deportation efforts — and issues a challenge to America. Today, at Law Dork:

Great post, great thread. Nails it.

"Only by inoculating society with truth can the lies of dehumanization be crushed."

This goes a long way toward explaining why so many conservatives, and esp. fundamentalist Christians, are pedophiles. This is a widespread sickness that has infected our culture and government. The media needs to step up and talk about this in detail. NOW. www.liberalcurrents.com/we-need-to-t...

ROFL ! He got away! YAY! (Turn up the volume!)

Amazing thread. It seems Trump's desperation to control the media is not merely about authoritarian power, although he'll take that too. It's about covering up his monstrosities.

It looks like Trump was part of Epstein's child rape gang, and that QAnon was generated as a diversion. It looks like our country has been hijacked by unspeakable monsters desperate to cover up unspeakable crimes. The media needs to crack this open. The Epstein Files look to be *just the beginning*.

If you think ‘fascist’ is just a buzzword, the 1945 Army training manual and this deep dive on current politics prove the term’s deadly relevance right now. https://americanmanifesto.news/this-is-american-fascism

Portland declares ICE facility out of compliance, demands its clearance. www.portland.gov/mayor/keith-...

Trump is lying, obviously. "...[T]he OIG emphasizes that 'none' of these twenty-six CHSs was 'authorized to enter the Capitol or a restricted area, or to otherwise break the law on January 6, nor was any CHS directed by the FBI to encourage others to commit illegal acts on January 6.'"

And the hits keep coming ...

The group behind the statue says a second permit, to reinstall the piece after Wednesday's removal, was revoked without explanation. It has since posted free 3D printable copies of the statue online.

Totally agree with this thread. Just to add: the immunity decision does such radical injury to the Constitution as to be, in my opinion, a nullity that should be called out as such by every legal organization and state bar. So radically destructive that Justice Roberts should be impeached for it.

Good job, mate. Top notch. www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

Yes! This is next level clown.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

Boycotts work.

Ed Martin, clown of all clowns 🤡🤡

Check out Justice Eddins’ complete repudiation of the Roberts Court here. It’s worth reading in full. It’s quite brave—and exceedingly rare—for a sitting judge to speak so candidly and scathingly about SCOTUS’ partisan contortions of law, history, and fact. www.courts.state.hi.us/wp-content/u...

Adam Schiff is a true patriot and a powerful counterveiling block against the violent fascism of MAGA, which is precisely why Trump wants to shut him down.

Tom Homan is criminal deep state scum.

The Heritage Foundation is a terrorist organization.

Superb article. For a very long time I've thought narcissism to be at the heart of the conservative movement and esp Trump/MAGA. This lays it out really well.
