The FBI spied on a Signal group chat of immigration activists, records reveal Exclusive: Agency accessed private conversations of New York ‘courtwatch’ group that was observing public hearings

The FBI infiltrated an encrypted chat of immigration court watchers in New York. Then it issued intelligence calling them violent extremists—terrorists.

As I told @theguardian.com, this targeting of people who show up for immigrants is straight COINTELPRO:

In reversal, Coast Guard again classifies swastikas, nooses as hate symbols The new order came hours after The Post reported the service would instead classify such symbols as “potentially divisive” under guidelines set for release next month.

I mean, damn.

They’re prepping their base to tolerate violence toward their enemies—and they have identified lots of American enemies.

We can deny it. Doesn’t change the what is all but obvious now. 2/end

‘It Feels Like I’m in a Nightmare’: Inside the First Deportation Flight to Iran

They have zero respect for human life. None. So it starts with “easy” cases: he’s brown, and he came here illegally. They send people to die. They send people to torture. They murder people on the high seas. They torture people in our own detention centers. 1/2

Why I Am Leaving the Federal Bench A judge explains his reasons for resigning.

Reagan-appointed federal judge: “The White House’s assault on the rule of law is so deeply disturbing to me that I feel compelled to speak out. Silence, for me, is now intolerable.”

incredible that these guys have a massive hard on for a country that, if it were a state, would rank behind kansas in terms of wealth and which would be a total backwater if it weren’t economically integrated with more functional countries

Most cruel people are cowards. But what about the ones who inspire cruelty at scale?

🧵[CW Sexual violence] William Yoo's book on Presbyterian history doesn't beat around the bush, but explains that most white Presbyterians in 18th-19th cent were ghoulishly immoral and tried to turn the brutalizing and rape of enslaved humans into an issue of Biblical interpretation #AwesomeWork 1/10

Prayer Gone Bad Like many Christians, I pray on and off throughout the day.

Local prayer mischief. My second post.

Any Christian movement that recruits from the “top” of society is likely toxic. Lots of campus ministries are that way, but it applies to churches too.

Who’s getting the “work”?

Resistance Is Cringe But it’s also effective.

Showing up matters. Has to be backed by determined action, but it absolutely matters.
* If it didn’t matter, they wouldn’t pass petty laws to make protest harder.

* “, despots all over the world would just let it happen.
It matters.

Dean: The president is unhinged

Johnson: A lot of folks on your side are too. I don’t control him

Review: Rereading Revelation - Word&Way Greg Carey, scholar of the New Testament and apocalyptic literature, invites readers to reconsider the book of Revelation as a text that can speak meaningfully to contemporary resistance movements.

Our latest review from @drbobcornwall.bsky.social covers the surprising contemporary insights from the Book of Revelation that are explored in @gregcareyphd.bsky.social’s timely “Rereading Revelation: Theology, Ethics, and Resistance” (@eerdmansbooks.bsky.social).
