I don’t know my country. I didn’t plan on spending my final life years under fascism. Back to work, I guess. Fight despair with cats, garden, reading, writing, and spending too much time watching the birds at the feeder. 🚫crypto 🚫porn, please

Is ICE building a β€œblack box” detention center where you live?

The rogue agency is spending hundreds of millions of dollars buying up empty warehouse space across the country to hold detainees.

Here’s what you should know β€” and what can be done about it.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities:

Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down

Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged

Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

Hey folks, has anybody been hearing about invocation of 25th amendment tonight. Perhaps major AI scam in process? My friend heard a whole Maddow report but nothing in NYT, etc.

The Real Story Behind the Midnight Immigration Raid on a Chicago Apartment Building The Trump administration has claimed the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua had taken over the building. But new documents make no mention of the gang and reveal federal agents had information about β€œille...

NEW: The DHS arrest records make no mention of the Tren de Aragua gang even though officials repeatedly cited its presence in the building as motivation for the raid, in which agents descended from a Blackhawk helicopter and zip-tied U.S. citizens.

No arrests of the ICE thugs who murdered Alex Pretti, Renee Good, or Keith Porter. No arrests of anyone in the Epstein Files. But they arrested Don Lemon because of his journalism.

Bondi directed federal agents to arrest four journalists.

Georgia Fort, Don Lemon, Jamael Lundy, and Trahern Crews.

All Black. All doing their jobs.

From Minnesota to Georgia, Trump’s plans to interfere in the midterms are becoming more dangerous The seizure of ballots in Fulton County, Georgia follows the DOJ’s demands for voter data in Minnesota.

Trump’s efforts to interfere in midterms becoming clearer & more dangerous every day:

-using ICE to terrorize blue states & cities

-seizing ballots in heavily Dem counties

-prosecuting 2020 enemies

-extorting states for sensitive voter data

ICE, as it exists today, needs to be dismantled.

When Trump is finally gone from office there will be many reparations necessary.

I'm really looking forward to this one.

Democrats' demand that Stephen Miller is fired as a condition of voting for ICE funding is one of the smartest moves they've made under Trump.

Miller is a loathsome figure who I imagine has rock-bottom likability numbers. Democrats should try to raise his public salience as often as possible.

This is why everyone should ignore the stories about Trump's de-escalation. The administration is *not* pivoting. It is pretending to pivot until the heat from the public and Congress dies down. Meanwhile, on the ground, it's more of the same, with slightly conciliatory language before the cameras.

I cannot and will not ever understand anyone who says we should have more of this, anyone who says this is ok, anyone who says using a child is a good plan. Those people are soul less individuals who should rot in hell

Ellison: "We have the right as a state, as a co-sovereign, to do our own business with our own tax money. What the federal govt has said is, 'if you don't do it our way, we're gonna saturate your state with 4,000 ICE agents until you cry uncle and obey us.' That's unconstitutional and illegal."

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

Some of my friends don’t watch or read the news because it’s upsetting. I love my friends, but I think they’re wrong. If terrible things are happening, we need to know. Self-care is important, but we need to know β€” so we can act. If a tiger is about to jump on you, ignorance is not self-care.

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: If there was ever a moment for libertarians and conservatives to step up and join the rest of us, we’re in it. 

Americans have to unite and stop this descent from a freedom-loving nation into the kind of place where masked, militarized government agents are sent to politically noncompliant areas to roam the streets, terrorize civilians, and deploy violence with impunity.

TD Lind - Bow Down
YouTube video by TD Lind official TD Lind - Bow Down

From 2016, a great one from TD Lind. (Excellent animation.)

Well, they better cry blood not tears
Well, have mercy for all these years
They sold lies like the devil
keeping good folks down
They keep the truth from the people
So the lies become the truth
Bow down
Bow down, lord now don't bow down

Massive, systemic Fourth Amendment violations because … reasons.
