In 2009, this was the mask of a UK SAS character in “Call of Duty.” By 2015 it was de rigeur among Iraqi government commandos and Shiite militiamen. In 2018, in “Sicario 2,” it was what CIA surrogate characters wore to disguise themselves as cartel gunmen.
Now US law enforcement wears it.

Border Patrol are animals. If you’ve spent any time at all near the southern border you know this already. They should NEVER be sent to any city. They’re not ICE. They’re far worse.

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is two or three days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.

This is why we run everywhere.
It’s quite literally my life’s work to support underfunded dems running in Red America. They speak truth to power, organize their communities, give voters a choice and a voice - and make progress.
And sometimes they show the whole country what’s possible. ✨
LFG. 💙

Remember when we learned that our wealthiest and most powerful people were connected to a guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring? And then that guy died mysteriously in a jail?
And now we just don't talk about it.

Brian May Rules Out Queen Shows in US: "America Is a Dangerous Place at the Moment"
Queen guitarist Brian May doesn't see his legendary band playing any US shows in the near future, declaring that "America is a dangerous place at the moment."
We’re going to see more and more of this. They’re going to start canceling live events because our country SUCKS.

Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.

Are Democratic politicians ready to accept that most Americans who say "border security" don't mean border security, they mean make the country whiter?
Under Obama, the US increased security assets along the US-Mexico border, including patrols and drones. Few who demand "border security" cared.

You cannot argue with MAGA. They demand evidence, then call your sources biased. You provide primary sources, they claim they're doctored. You show them video, they say it's out of context. You give them context, they say you're cherry-picking. This isn't debate. This is a systematic refusal to allow reality to intrude on mythology. You're not arguing facts. You're arguing whether facts exist.

A group of local, elected prosecutors from around the country is launching an effort to hold federal agents liable for abuses of power.
They’re calling it the Fight Against Federal Overeach, or “FAFO” for short—reminiscent of Sec. Hegseth's "fuck around and find out" moment. trib.al/QySFxXE

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

It’s the same logic employed against 2A at “protests.” If you’re a MAGA goon and bring a gun you’re a patriot. If you’re not, you’re asking to be shot.
