They raided the jailed children to steal their letters.

The problem, in federal officials' minds, wasn't confining children in prison-camp conditions; it was that the children could tell the public about it.

It’s so hard to have a reasonable conversation about AI, because people refuse to see the massive upsides of job elimination, higher electrical bills, hard drive shortages, poisoning black people in Memphis, and an economy where a handful of pedos with bad hair control your life

Monstrously evil. Abolish ICE. Melt down its weapons and sell off all of its assets. Release everyone from its concentration camps and grant citizenship (if they want it) to everyone whose rights it has violated.

I am a former advocate for domestic violence survivors. I am now in gun violence prevention work. And I implore you to call this what this is. Name the underlying problems.

It’s the guns. And it’s also domestic violence. It’s all of it. 2/2

You will see coverage of today’s shooting in Rhode Island that describes it as a family dispute. I despise that language.

It’s domestic violence. Not a dispute. People are dead. Domestic violence. And the combination of domestic violence and easy access to guns is a lethal one indeed. 1/

As a text purist, I hate the movies with the fiery passion of a thousand exploding suns. Hate. Haaaatttteeee.

Yes, I am ready for this to be the Dem discourse for 2026, 2028, 2030, ad infinitum UNTIL I DIE. (I also hope Peter Jackson hits his kneecap on his desk every day of his life.)

I think @celebrityhottub.bsky.social and @edsbs.bsky.social can speak on this.

The same day DHS announced the surge would end in Minnesota, ICE activity increased in small towns The less densely populated areas outside the Twin Cities make it harder for protesters and observers to organize.

There is no drawdown. There is no retreat. ICE is just redistributing their assets to better avoid accountability.

Sometimes I remember Reagan removing Jimmy Carter’s solar panels and I think we’ve been enduring this shit for way too many years.

ICE agents are still out there this morning, photographing schools from unmarked vehicles and then quickly leaving after being confronted. Keep your heads up.

I really, really resent that our medical training system is so impossible for so many disabled people to get through because of systemic lack of accommodation, because I firmly believe that disabled doctors are WILDLY more empathic, pragmatic, and better at creative problem solving!

ICE is still out and about, they’re driving around, even getting new cars. Head on a swivel.

"Maria" is tying the stakes with wire, making a strong knot. This is important, so that when the blackberry plant grows, it will grow straight. It also helps keep enough space between each plant to allow for proper growth and maximum fruit production. #WeFeedYou

One of the things language like this does is conveys the way that leftism is seen as feminized in america. Leftists are called β€œhysterical,” told we β€œthrow tantrums,” and β€œare shrill and unreasonable.”

This is the language of cultural misogyny, used to denigrate and silence women.

And…..what exactly is the reasonable suspicion based on?? It doesn’t have anything to do with racial profile only in the sense that it is absolutely and only racial profiling.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans

And she had a reason! That character (I've erased his name from my memory) deserved to be car-crashed over the side of a bridge.
