The idea of a bill rendering people deportable for following religious law should make every Jew ill

Javier Abreu-Vasquez had a kidney transplant in 2023. He was grabbed by ICE while delivering groceries to help his neighbours. They’re refusing to give him his anti rejection meds. Without them, he will lose the organ. This is how people die.

What are we doing here? And also he definitely blew Bubba.

Newsflash: if your system is built and dependent on people who abuse and harm children, literally the most vulnerable people in our society, then, and I’m gonna hold your hand when I say this part, THE SYSTEM SHOULDN’T FUCKING EXIST AND IT NEEDS TO FUCKING COLLAPSE RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!! 😑😑😑😑

I'm going to do a thread of all the references and context behind Bad Bunny's performance and what it means for Puerto Ricans to see this on the biggest stage. The opening title screen is a street mural in Puerto Rico that comes to life with footballs as coconuts. Follow along!

I want to talk about how normal this is in US jails, how my family had to pay a church to bring the entire Lincoln county jail fruit, enough for all 80 of us, so I could have my first piece of fresh fruit in 8 months No one has that kind of luck and privilege I am so angry and tired

This is 18-mo-old Amalia waving to me when she was detained. She was hospitalized with a respiratory infection while at ICE’s Dilley facility for immigrant families. She’s one of dozens of detainees who I spoke to via video and phone calls, letters and an in-person visit. 🧵1/

This a word cloud from the titles of ~1100 terminated NSF grants. It is hard not to see these grant terminations as an attack on the training of the future United States scientific workforce.

BOISE: ICE raided Spanish speaking daycare this morning for a "targeted pick-up". One adult person taken, don't think any others but unsure. PODER is engaging and Wrest is aware and available to those impacted in a support capacity. Idaho Statesman had a reporter on scene shortly after.

I read the “SAVE Act” (the GOP’s new voter suppression bill) so you don’t have to. This is my one page summary. Jesus it’s bad. 1/

The ASPS has come out against trans youth surgical care. The AMA then endorsed the ASPS. Meanwhile, WPATH's president-elect testified on behalf of a detransitioner who won their case. And hospitals capitulate to Trump. I write my indictment of the American medical system on trans youth care.

Advocating for human rights is a dismissible offense if you’re on the Human Rights Commission. And here we have Idaho…

ASPS members regularly do over 8,000 breast reductions annually between cis girls (5325) and cis boys (2942) far more than done for trans youth. These can carry substantial risks of loss of function, sensitivity, and standard surgical risks. Yet, ASPS isn't advising against those.

I do appreciate a good quantitative data set. Let me do some statistical analysis... Oh wait, no need. It is effing obvious what is going on.

Remember the incident where DHS claimed officers shot a guy because he attacked them with a snow shovel? Yeah. It didn't happen. They shot him through the door of his own home. And then arrested him. And then lied about it. Again. And they almost shot some kids in the process.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

1/5 OPM quietly revised its Jan 2026 shutdown guidance. The new text backs away from guaranteed back pay for furloughed feds -- even though a 2019 law already guarantees it. The statute didn’t change; the guidance did. 🔍 🙏 @jheckman.bsky.social @dfriedman.bsky.social @federalnewsnetwork.com

Horrifying and unnerving. DHS sent an administrative subpoena to Google for this retiree's records and even sent armed agents out to his house for the "offense" of writing the following completely anodyne email to a federal prosecutor using an email address he found via Google.

They don't give a single fuck about their own supporters. It's particularly galling that they no longer care if they live or die.

They're desparate to stop Senate Democrats from defunding ICE. Keep calling. Keep pushing.

After viewing some of the Epstein files I absolutely believe in demons. They're called billionaires. Oh I forgot to mention Bill Gates contracting an STD and asking Jeffery how to sneak antibiotics into Melinda's food. Anyway WE RIDE AT DAWN! 🧙🏼‍♀️🏴‍☠️🏳️‍🌈✊🏽

UTAH auto body shop owner: “You guys broke the fucking window to get in here! Where is your warrant??” Trump’s ICE goons: “Yes we did… We don’t need one.” 🤔 Rights are gone under this regime. (From Somali Snaps: www.instagram.com/reel/DUKpzuS...)

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Trump arrested 4 black journalists for covering a nonviolent church protest w/zero property damage/injuries -and- Trump's suing every US taxpayer for $10 billion -and- Trump announced he's building a stadium in front of the White House -AND- I'm still not distracted from Epstein 866.997.GRIT LIVE

What is a centrist? Most people will tell you 2+2=4. Donald Trump will tell you 2+2=6. So the centrist insists that 2+2=5. Trump gives ICE a free hand to murder with impunity. Millions of people conclude that ICE must be abolished. And the centrists? Watch closely what they do next in Minnesota.

We’ve been here before. We’ve seen our government round up and imprison citizens based on racial profiling. We’ve seen them murder peaceful people in cold blood. We’ve seen them create groups of people that are deemed “lesser than.”

Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.

This is terrible. It is also an opportunity for certain journalists to finally speak up with a *fraction* of the courage the people of Minneapolis have shown. It is also instructive that Lemon is Black. Woe/pox etc upon white journalists who don’t freak out about this.

For this goodnight post, we honor Dr. Angella D. Ferguson (1925–2026), pediatrician and sickle cell disease pioneer. As a Black woman physician when few were allowed in the room, she chose a disease others ignored, built evidence where little existed, and changed pediatric care forever. 🌙

The people of Minneapolis have shown us that radical love and community are more powerful than masked thugs and guns. Stand in solidarity with Minneapolis on 1/31 by hitting the streets at an ICE Out of Everywhere protest near you. Link in bio.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

So by 'reform', we still have a child in migrant detention, but this time with medical care?

There's no way you can keep funding a federal government who's primary mission is to inflict pain on the population. Every federal agency from McMahon at DoE to RFK shredding HHS and everything in between. Every day we let them stay open is more time we'll need to repair the damage they've done
