On Trump Deploying Troops to More Cities to Protect ICE from Antifa (Or Whatever)

Weird how all these ICE agents cosplaying Tier One operators have yet to enter a known violent gang area to make arrests.

Pam Bondi admits she spoke to Apple to "get the ICEBlock app taken down." Sounds an awful lot like coercion to suppress disfavored speech to me. A clear violation of the 1st Amendment.

Truth

If there was ever a crime for which a pardon should never be granted… it’s child sex trafficking The fact that Trump is willing to consider a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell is sick & deeply concerning. They won’t release the files. They’re denying justice to survivors. They can’t let her walk free

If Trump wants to bypass the courts to use the Insurrection Act, then we the people should bypass Congress and arrest him.

I’m down for this.

"hand-to-hand combat with antifa every night"

"The only thing any one person can do about evil and hate is to be, each of us, our own walking proof of humanity, compassion, and loving kindness, and carry this light wherever we go." ~ Margaret M. Painter ~ Good words to start the week. Good morning, everyone. Happy Monday!🦋

OMG do I ever feel this pain

This can not be said enough. There isn’t any emergency, crisis, or real need in Portland. Trump as usual is just full of bilious shit.

I had a bumper sticker on my old truck that said “Keep Portland Weird,” and I’m happy to report that they have complied.

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

I understand this. Please tell me you do, too.

How true this is

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

MAGA considers Hippocrates a sissie

Yes, let's hear the news report simply, "Trump lied repeatedly in his speech today".

JD VANCE: "My mother got the drugs that almost killed her from Mexicans." REALITY: JD's mother got the drugs that almost killed her from her hospital patients, whom she stole from.

A federal workers' union has filed a lawsuit against the Trump admin for altering Department of Education employees' out-of-office email messages to include partisan language about a government shutdown without their consent.

Somewhere in America, a young Hispanic girl is hiding in an attic writing a diary.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

DAG Todd Blanche’s explicit linkage of the govt's vindictive start of its Abrego criminal probe to govt’s loss of Abrego's civil case may be the most foolish thing he’s done since his cross of Michael Cohen. (“[Y]ou went on TikTok and called me a ‘crying little shit,’ didn’t you?” )

Memo to White House reporters: please ask the press secretary if Jesus would be OK with someone bleeding to death in the street because you would not let him or her get access to an emergency room.

I am once again calling on state governors to mobilize their National Guards to escort congressmembers into ICE facilities so they can DO THEIR LAWFULLY ASSIGNED FEDERAL DUTIES

Watching Jay, I realize I am simply exhausted by folks in positions of leadership who are driven to distraction by critique. If you can't function with critique and pushback, a leadership position is not for you. Leadership REQUIRES you to absorb and process the critique of stakeholders.

Pretty wild that President Trump "determined" that the US is in an armed conflict with "designated terrorist organizations" but won't tell the US public or Congress who those groups are. The US is supposedly at war, but we're not allowed to know who exactly the military is bombing in the Caribbean.

An interesting point raised elsewhere: these boats that the United States is striking don't appear to have the fuel capacity/storage capacity to even reach American shores.

Kash Patel has "summarily dismissed" a trainee for displaying a pride flag. "Summarily" means without attention to formalities. And there are formalities for firing a federal employee. So the twit Kash is admitting that the firing was done in a pique of bigotry, not in accordance with the law.

Hard to believe there are 80 million people who voted (and would again) for a guy who's creating even more wealth for billionaires, while they pay more for everything and may lose their healthcare. All so that 8 trans athletes can't compete in badminton

Thank you, Jane Goodall, for showing us a way.

"One clinical psychologist [said] he considers Trump such a 'classic' pathological narcissist that he is actually 'archiving video clips of him to use in workshops because there’s no better example' of the characteristics of the disorder he displays."

Talarico: if you read the new testament, Jesus doesn't spend most of his time preaching or teaching or even praying. He spends most of his time healing the sick. Right now, we have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants
