Survey data shows that most Americans do not want to rein in ICE. They want to abolish it.

74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting it, according to YouGov polling from last month. Weak calls for "reform" are coming from *elected* Democrats like Chuck, not the average Democratic voter.

and if wherever you land your riposte is, "but things went wrong because not enough people followed MY ideology" well maybe your ideology should've been fucking better at convincing people huh

i'm just gonna get ahead of the curve here and report that james harden is dissatisfied in cleveland and has requested a trade

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.

Fucking surreal that people dressed like this and carrying assault rifles are permitted to kidnap people off our streets

We need communities that protect children

The Utah Historical Society just produced a new, excellent map of "The Peoples of North America in 1776." Great resource for anyone teaching, writing, presenting about Native peoples as part of their 250th work. america250.utah.gov/power-of-pla...

The FBA/ADOS movement is in my estimation currently the greatest psy-op to be thrown at Black Americans & the Black diaspora, and it’s so blatantly obvious to anyone willing to pay attention. It’s sole purpose is to perpetuate nationalist and jingoistic principles to fragment Black political power

We are going to have to march all these people into the ocean.

The fall is imminent, I hope we all have some level of contingency in place

I’m gonna be more honest than I should, I don’t consider conservatives (politicians and voters) as human anymore. I haven’t for a while honestly. I don’t feel any sympathy for them when they have to deal with the consequences of their actions and I actively relish in their misfortune.

That poor baby. I hope the guilt the mother feels weighs on her for the rest of her life

More cracks are showing, they are not strong but brittle

This is the stuff that marks someone as a danger. Not even just that he intends to sneak back into an organizing space where he’s been told that he’s unwanted; the need to publicly brag about it, and make sure everyone knows. You cannot do collaborative work with someone who only centers himself.

For people in the United States, understanding this situation requires a break with their own government’s extreme violence towards Cuba. The fuel blockade is not a “policy disagreement.”

CLAIM: It's not a crime to party with mr. epstein FACT CHECK: True! Many people who partied with epstein have escaped justice

She is so much more gracious than Bill deserves. Imagine your husband trying to sneak STD medication into your food after he gave you an STD he contracted from pedophilia. He’s lucky to be alive imo

beam me up lord

Some people have questioned whether this is real. First, Blume is a legit reporter who's covering the courts in earnest. Second, there's a MN-barred attorney named Julie Le whose address is literally the Whipple Building. Another attorney confirmed to me she's a private attorney contracting with DOJ

Cracks are showing lmao

So instead of saying “elites in the Democratic Party refused the demands of their grassroots base” it’s “wokeness/intersectionality/CRT” failed because…”

Part of the issue is a bedrock refusal to accept the fact the people who wanted to defund the police were correct and political elites refused to address their claims. They want to make that a grassroots rather than elite failure which is why they point to Pelosi/Clinton/Biden as representative.

Until this reality is accepted by liberals (funding 🐷 didn’t reduce/end violence) nothing will change. It looks like they’ll repeat the same 2020 cycle but with 🧊 this time

No point in explaining the same shit over and over again to people who enthusiastically supported the idea training facilities and extra funds for cop hires was the smart answer to police violence.

Just no longer engaging with people who can only imagine social progress through the lens of legislation. Y’all got it.

“The lack of an independent black progressive movement and of independent black progressive political organizations has deprived black citizens of the institutional forces needed to hold their leaders accountable.” www.bostonreview.net/forum/future...

haha hey you ever post something you thought would be a funny meme and instead you uncover a psychopath Nazi CEO who funds his company through an illegal hostel where he visa traps interns/employees and uses them as self proclaimed "slave labor" in a basement with no windows cool cool me too...

the Epstein files make it very clear why the MeToo backlash was so extreme and why so much of elite society preferred Donald Trump ruling us like a king to the barest hint of accountability

As Black History Month begins, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers who built this city into the “gorgeous mosaic” we call home. Today, we reflect on the words of Mayor David Dinkins: our city’s first Black mayor (and a democratic socialist!).

Good god. We've spent a decade with the British media - including the BBC - claiming that the 'gender critical' movement wanted to 'protect women and girls'. And it turns out Jeffrey Epstein was funding part of it.

This was on the same day we learned Bari's wife was in the latest Epstein file drop.

The next item in the auction was a week in a house in Sag Harbor. As the auctioneer was in the middle of talking about the item, Bari shouted “Name your price!” Didn’t wait for the bidding to begin. She won it for $25k.

Bari Weiss attended a fundraiser last night in NYC, attendee tells me. There was an auction item for dinner with her and wife Nellie Bowles. Several people cheered in approval, many others said after how gross it was. Bari shouted out “And you can make out with Nellie!” It ultimately sold for $55k.

in retrospect in the wake of the epstein files being released, no wonder ‘me too’ was met with such anger and ultimately those in power it meant to target never face many consequences

BARI WEISS: I think it's so telling. Liberals only want to talk about the bad bunny. Whereas rational people like you and me, I think, people who can agree to disagree, we want to talk about the good bunny. BILLIONAIRE CHILD RAPIST: [nodding]

I’m posting this now because Pusha T just performed at the Grammys tonight.

Winning AOTY and performing the Super Bowl gotta be one of the craziest weeks of all-time.

Your New England Patriots

I really despise people posting shit like “I’m 35 I can’t start a movie after 8pm” shut the hell up

This month & beyond, I hope more of us stand in solidarity with the disabled community, & commit to using alt text on your media. Black History is intertwined with disability history and the Disability Rights Movement was influenced by the Civil Rights Movement. Many of your faves were disabled.

There are lots of cases of people, mainly men, who aren’t particularly intelligent or capable but benefit from the existence of rape and abuse culture simply because they recognize you can

I need people to understand that it’s not just Epstein, it’s the entire rape culture that existed before and after him at every socioeconomic level. That’s why Epstein, who I’ve never thought was particularly smart or interesting, was able to pull this all off—he recognized how abuse functions

Also, you don’t do that. This is a painful read because when journalists don’t protect their sources - those people can and will get hurt from your laziness or even haste to get the story first.

The FBI was able to access Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson's Signal messages because she used Signal on her work laptop. The laptop accepted Touch ID for authentication, meaning the agents were allowed to require her to unlock it. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

New court record from the FBI details the state of the devices seized from Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson: phone was on w/Lockdown Mode; personal laptop was off; work laptop was on w/Touch ID; several Signal chats used disappearing messages. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The idea of "doing everything right" needs to die. Adhering to protocols in the face of state efforts to do violence is not something people should be taking the time to consider important or relevant, for the simple fact that your enemy does not
