They don't have capacity to terrorize more than 2-3 cities at a time.

Which means they rotate teams to new cities without relief.

Which means consistent resistance by fresh activists in each new city will break them over time.

Which means if you're city's not occupied, rest up and get ready.

This isn't a series of independent zero-sum games.

We don't need to win every battle. We do need to exact a price every time they raid our communities.

Reduce harm as much as you can. Make sure they leave more weary than they came.

Trust that comrades in other cities will pick up the baton.

I've seen refugee aid efforts defeat multi-year occupations by regional / national police forces who deployed 30x the amount of resources. Hell I've been part of that.

It is *very* possible.

ICE's budget has a limit.
Make them use it.

ICE's morale has a limit.
Make them lose it.

I think, every so often, about how the student protesters in South Korea figured out there was a finite supply of tear gas, and then staged retreating marches that caused police to burn off most of it, before the big "bring your auntie and kids" marches that ultimately toppled the dictatorship.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

I can't remember the precise wording but someone on here said that the Republican threat to expose Bill Clinton too isn't so much a threat as it is a "buy one, get one free" promotion.

You look for cracks everywhere to exploit against fascists. Period. I think some people seem confused about the state of things in this country.

Americans as twelve year olds is a shockingly useful hypothesis for every single frustrating thing my countrymen have done since at least I was twelve. Probably far longer.

JUST IN: A U.S. citizen from Alabama who has been detained twice by ICE while working at a construction site, has filed a class action suit claiming ICE's broad warrantless arrest powers violate the constitution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

“I’m strong and I want to have like fifty kids and a farm” of course you do. You’re twelve. “I don’t want to eat vegetables I think steak and French fries is the only meal” hell yeah homie you’re twelve. “Maybe if there’s crime we should just send the army” bless your heart my twelve year old buddy

working on a new unified theory of american reality i'm calling "everyone is twelve now"

Sharing this again because despite all of the horrors, you are not alone. MILLIONS of people around the country are standing up and saying NO, and you can join them.

this is illegal for them to ask and for you to provide btw

I and others are doing this in New York, but it's easy to have a lot of people with eyes and ears tuned to the city and responding quickly compared to this. The people who are doing this, mostly of their own volition, in the suburbs, are genuinely heroic.

heggseth's weird podcast rant (delivered to 800 generals and admirals for some reason) is just another sign of how this is a tv presidency. they don't really know how to do policy. their instinct is theater. encounter a problem? put on a spectacle

remember, they’re not even through year zero yet and they’re already being threatened with contempt

BREAKING: WE WON!!!
💥 💥 💥

Federal Judge William G. Young ruled today in our lawsuit against the Trump administration that the policy of arresting, detaining, & deporting noncitizen students & faculty members for their pro-Palestinian advocacy violates the 1st Amendment.

Full ruling here:

10. Hope this helps people understand what is going on right now. It's complicated, but they are all negotiating right now, and our rights definitely need to be fought for at this moment.

9. We MAY get a CR that is "clean" with no anti-trans provisions in it, but don't prematurely celebrate if we do because that is NOT the real fight. That would be "we've extended our negotiations for another month or two while we hammer out what's in the final bill."

37 Democratic Senators Voted To Pass Anti-Trans NDAA. Here Are Their Names. The vote came after most of the same Democrats refused to allow an amendment on the floor to remove the anti-trans provision in the military spending bill.

8. In 2024, when Democrats had full control of the Senate, they allowed an anti-trans youth care tricare ban to pass. They refused to even hold a vote to remove it, because it was what was in the final negotiated bill for the military.

We just literally lost everything in our life and all what we are doing is trying to rebuild and handle so difficult conditions, please be part of survive us and support us here

Trump’s awful but it’s important to note he’d be different and potentially less harmful kinds of awful if he weren’t advised and manipulated by some of the most evil people in American history.

This is an idiot stooge for an aspiring fascist regime lying about crime rates to manufacture consent for the military occupation and brutal violent repression of civilians.

Meanwhile in reality..

If you read the article this was straight up a torture program that also featured a bunch of sexual assault, abuses on a level that one will day be in textbooks with the question how did it go on so long

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

Donald Trump is lying about Portland.

That's what dishonest tyrants do.

Tell the truth.

Fascists hate that.

american history brims w examples of prowling whites terrorizing black people from slavecatchers to confederate friekorps to lynch mobs to putschs like wilmington to pogroms like tulsa to occupying-army-like police etc etc etc

and now roving gangs of whites called ice agents hunt down brown people

And the admin is likely to try to deport him again once he’s out of the hospital.
