They didn’t even try to name it something less obvious lmao

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

🚨Imagine ICE conducting a raid on your PRIVATE PROPERTY.🚨
Illegal, unconstitutional, and an elevation of ICE’s encroachment. This needs to have national attention. 1/2

To be clear (since NPR isn't), the "joke" is premised on the fact that Trump is kidnapping people w/o due process and shipping them to offshore concentration slave camps in defiance of court orders, human rights accordances, the U.S. constitution, all tenets of common decency, and international law.

A video surfaced showing the brutalization of community members by ICE and the St. Paul, Minnesota PD after ICE abducted two of their neighbors. As a result of the chemical munitions and police beatings, eight people, including a journalist, were hospitalized. 11/25/25

I remain convinced DOGE was a massive, planetary scale data exfiltration scheme and that Palantir has it all now

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.

DOGE Disbanded: Elon Musk’s Cost-Cutting Project Quietly Ended Musk said the initiative would save at least $1 trillion. But its website claims to have reached only $214 billion.

DOGE has been a FLOP, now disbanded 8 months early. Greatly exaggerating their "success" Trump and Musk lied to the taxpayers, never delivering a cent back to them. The real impact: slashing research, endangering public health, removing competent public servants, & creating chaos.

The difference between a grande and a venti anxiety is staggering nowadays due to Trumpflation.

and all of the arguments we made 5 yrs ago in this paper about why the idea of robot rights relies on faulty assumptions about the nature of human cognition and intelligence still hold

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.

"It is against the TOS to be talked into suicide by our LLM" is possibly the most evil tech bro thing I've ever read

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

The first official confirmation that Noem herself made the decision not to turn the planes around. A couple hundred men were tortured as a result — and soon after, the Supreme Court confirmed that the Trump admin’s Alien Enemies Act process was a total violation of due process.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Does the BBC think it's improper for a speaker to state their opinion that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history?

Because I think almost all historians would readily agree that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.

I would decline to voluntarily cooperate. No way. Issue a subpoena and fight it out in court.

Republicans know exactly what they are doing in these cases. Speculation that they might simply be waging an ideological battle — and that it could backfire politically — is either dangerous wishful thinking or uninformed. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Separated, Reunited, Now Deported The Biden administration tried to undo the damage of Trump’s border policies. Now the government is coming for the same families again.

“Since the beginning of Trump’s second term, members of at least five formerly separated families have been removed from the U.S. against their will.” www.thecut.com/article/fami...

My friend just fuckin showed up with a corncob pipe & that’s when it hit me that we are all in our 40s which means we get one new accessory slot

This poisonous Trump regime is a disgrace. Their removal will be a day to celebrate.

Wait a minute...you mean to tell me thousands of the most beautiful women on earth didn't all randomly decide to join Twitter in 2023?????

A reminder that Trump's "peace plan" for Ukraine came from Russia going back to 2016. From the Mueller Report:

Let’s see if one single pundit who said there was some great realignment of American sentiment with this last election, based on what they saw on the Nazi-owned platform overrun by foreign actors, offers any retractions or corrections for their gullibility.

Upset about shitty air travel? You should dress nicer.

Upset about high prices? You should just ignore it.

Upset about bad inflation? You should just move to another state.

Hang onto these pictures because Hegseth will have the offending sign removed as soon as he sobers up today.

thinking about how my parents escaped vietnam, where the CIA destabilized my family's home country by spreading misinformation, and they landed in the united states, which is now getting destabilized bc someone in vietnam is spreading misinformation

CROW: We wanted to start a conversation about the dangerous rhetoric this president is using and threats he's made to use our military in an unlawful way

BRENNAN: Specifically what?

CROW: Send troops into Chicago, into polling stations, kill terrorists' families, shoot peaceful protesters ...
