Because if you see this, and you vote for ICE funding at this point, in any capacity? I want you gone.

I'm going to need people to update how they shit-talk people who want stuff done. "Oh, they're mad that they're only getting 30% of what they want" really rings different when the 70% of shit we're not getting is "someone to shut down the concentration camps."

There's three votes for anything on the supreme court. If trump said "I'm the god-king of arrakis" he'd get three votes and a lengthy opinion about the long history and tradition of english common law with regards to the spice melange

It’s important to note that even though the importers jacked up prices on the American consumer, it’s the corporations that get these refunds. Not the consumers. So the rich, as always, will get richer while American consumers will have paid the price. END/

He can write an executive order about anything he wants, but that won't make it a law

Harris knows this but he has such contempt for his audience that he assumes they don't

Decorum in the face of criminality, corruption and cruelty is just a soft, cowardly way of acquiescing to it -- even agreeing with it. Disruption against corruption is crucial.

House Democrats try to shut down disruptions at Trump's State of the Union Jeffries told his members to either show "silent defiance" or boycott the speech.

Trump is in the Epstein files thousands of times, he is shredding the first amendment, he is brazenly corrupt, he is opening concentration camps in their districts, and he is starting an unprovoked war with Iran. WHY WOULD YOU NOT DISRUPT THE STATE OF THE UNION.

The whole D leadership needs to go.

“Is there a technology the left is excited about?”

High-speed rail! MRNA vaccines! New cancer treatments! Solar and wind energy collection! Better and longer-range EVs! That wood that's harder than steel! New apples! Fibermaxxing! Buldak Swicy ramen! Muppets! Muppets are too a technology, shut up!

I can’t believe you lefty Luddites hate tech so much that you embrace mRNA vaccines, heat pumps, electric bikes, hybrid work, renewable power (and awesome advancements in storage), space telescopes, and hot/cold running water but reject the planet destroying plagiarism enrich the worst people bots!

Twin Cities Unions Planning ‘Largest US Rent Strike in 100+ Years’ as ICE Occupation Drives Eviction Crisis | Common Dreams "Tenants in Minnesota are in a crisis," said Minneapolis City Council Member Aisha Chughtai. "The federal invasion forced many of our neighbors to stay home and devastated our local economy."

In what could be the “largest rent strike in the US in the last 100 years," a coalition of tenant + labor unions representing over 25K workers are threatening a mass rent strike in the face of the ongoing occupation by ICE. www.commondreams.org/news/minneso...

Trump wants to prosecute anti-fascists as terrorists. This Texas trial will test his power. A July 4 shooting at an ICE detention center could change the way the federal government prosecutes activists.

Federal prosecutors in Texas are seeking to convict protesters on "domestic terrorism"-related charges. The chilling implication: anything that feels "at odds with this administration’s policies could be considered domestic terrorism," says @rlevinsonwaldman.bsky.social.

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

no one ever asked republicans for specific details on how “mass deportations” would work and now here we are

C’mon, Chuck. You’re fighting to “rein in” ICE? DEFUND ICE.

these people are sociopaths

DHS is shutting down because it refuses to obey the law. They are tear-gassing schools, killing American citizens, and disappearing legal immigrants. Democrats shouldn’t fund an out of control ICE.

On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamilla’s medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being “served food that contained worms.” A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees. The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

end qualified immunity and make cops carry personal liability insurance

Exclusive: White House uses USAID funds for budget director Vought's security, documents show The White House budget office is using millions of dollars from the former U.S. foreign aid agency to pay for the security detail of Russell Vought, President Donald Trump's budget chief and an archit...

The Project 2025 author is using millions of dollars in USAID money for his own security detail.

It is estimated that 762,000 people have *already died* as a result of Elon Musk and Russell Vought’s obscene murder of USAID, including more than 500,000 children.

Vought is a mass murderer.

I could remove every speck of risque imagery/topics from my community and there's still a 50% chance we'd get flagged just because we're openly queer.

It's not actually about the kids.

Good morning! This man is a fucking liar.

ICE broke off into smaller teams. instead of flooding 1 zone, they broke up into packs. my friends across Chicago reported spotting small teams of 2 - 5 people popping up all over the city. sometimes 10 different spots in 1 day. they ran our spotters ragged.

Colorado has started putting polling places in prisons, and people have been voting at really high rates there!

The FBI said it declines to comment on potential or pending litigation. An FBI spokesperson initially said no restraints or rubber bullets were used on children but later amended that statement, replacing “children” with “young children,” according to The Associated Press.

I found this admission kind of telling. Yikes.

I’m a non white scholarship private school and Ivy kid

This is :

- anti feminist yes but also racial segregation remixed
- a new brand of shifting societal issues onto women and part of Project Eve so irresponsible yall make my ass itch
- a disturbing signal of an uptick in abuse

This is like the owner of a car dealership finding out about car theives and saying “Welp, I’m finished!”

Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise both have rights to their likenesses. This video violates their rights, and the machine that created was trained on stolen copyrighted material.

Idaho families sue over immigration raid that swept up hundreds, including U.S. citizens — NBC News About 400 people, including children and U.S. citizens, were detained for four hours while they were denied food and water in the raid, according to the lawsuit.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...
