Thank You for Your Attention to This Matter

Zohran and Kathy showing all y’all what vote blue no matter who means in practice. Get your heads right.

ICE and BP have $170B that still has sometbing like $165B left in it that is available for obligation through 2029

Getting DHS approps fenced off was some leg jiu-jitsu that no one at this place is gonna give Dems credit for, but no one at either agency is missing paychecks if annual approps lapse

It's fair for them to explain why she didn't participate, so they can head off a bunch of people online screaming that she was being mistreated. She was treated the same as everyone else, but that's not what she's after.

Do we know these folks are center right scolds, or do we just assume because Kat did a thing and we back whatever thing Kat does?

Here's Soon-Yi Previn, wife of Woody Allen, who was groomed by Allen as a teenager, defending Anthony Wiener and saying the 15-year-old girl he preyed on should "feel ashamed of herself" for manipulating him into a sexual relationship.

One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office.

Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.

Attorneys for man killed by off-duty ICE agent call on California A.G. to investigate Attorneys for Keith Porter Jr. — who was shot and killed by an off-duty ICE agent on New Year's Eve — called for California Atty.

voting third party is for SURE an epic strat though. That one has saved us so many times.

Elizabeth Zuna Caisaguano, 11 years old. In dreadful ICE detention for nearly a month.

Same with the Access Hollywood tape. Most journos wouldn't bother to ask Republicans about it if it came out today. Because Republicans have learned that all they need to say is"didn't see it" or "Trump's a jokester" - they are under no pressure to condemn or criticize.

Uh oh now you're critiquing their failures, watch out

omg @randyrainbow.bsky.social please

Jeffries' message—take money from violent law enforcement and instead fund social services—is pretty straightforwardly the argument of the defund police movement. 1

Americans in Paris stand with Springfield, OH.
NO ICE. Not there. Not anywhere.

This reminds me of Ashton Kutcher, defender of children, slayer of abusers! Except his rapist friend, of course.

and then they start going, "well, state violence is bad ergo i must punch Will Stancil in the face so i can do the arson"

MAGA Adult Male assaults Texas High School students protesting ICE

I love how meshing protest discourses right now implies a class of people who believe that diversity of tactics includes burning toxic shit in residential areas full of marginalized people but doesn't include warning them with whistles or telling the press about the illegal shit happening.

Crazy to see the UK responding to the Epstein files with actual consequences—there apparently shame and the rule of law still have some weight

"Joe Biden failed us on our Southern border." Nope. Talarico is spreading disinformation. Kenny breaks down everything Joe Biden introduced a bill on day one for the Southern border.

Because creating trust networks and community on the ground takes time and effort and isn't something you can easily share for clout. A lot of quiet activity creating a lot of goodwill and connections has to happen to bring people together like in MN. And that trust breaks when people are careless.

No offense but if anything MN puts the lie to the idea that popular resistance takes a bunch of time and preparation by established activists who are allegedly quietly building goodwill. Mostly I see those people upset that it's succeeding and trying to gatekeep the normal people out of it

Victim testimony is viewed as inherently less credible than people saying the word “pizza” or “steak” is code for “child sex slave” based on nothing but their desire for there to be a conspiracy

and that way the fire department is busy putting out dumpster fires which is great, since we want firefighters distracted and spread thin

People really have no respect for the tradition of non-violent protest, which *actually got results*. It's shocking that people would rather proclaim the righteousness of dumpster fires than walk the same path as civil rights protesters.

i guess i would like to hear the theory on which setting fire to a random dumpster advances the cause of stopping ice

It's certainly not the point here but "protests you find too spicy" is a phrase I find endlessly aggravating. The Internet has made a lot of people talk in euphemism when discussing serious things and we should all knock it off.

They looked at Minnesota and thought, "they're doing it wrong" because #2
