Illinois State Police are protecting ICE as they move their vehicles out of the Broadview Detention Center. Call Governor Pritzker now to demand that he remove the ISP from Broadview. No state resources to protect kidnappers. Pritzker: Call off the IL state police 312-814-2121

I called and talked about how the state cops joined ICE in brutalizing protesters today.

I also have no nostalgia for the road to fascism, which is a trap I think a lot of liberal and progressive folks are falling intoβ€”romanticizing the conditions that preceded this moment of acceleration. The path that led to this mess is not the way out.

I am of the belief that there are white people who repeatedly disrespect Black people with pedigree to remind us of our "place" in the social hierarchy.

This is @profkori.bsky.social "Know Your Place" theory.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets.

Kristi Noem couldn’t get to Twitter fast enough to use the Dallas ICE shooting for political points. But local news now says it was detainees who were shot β€” not ICE agents. She played politics, and three human beings are dead. We need an investigation into how this happened now!

Sorry the reason you are not seeing Black voices platformed to speak to this moment & are in fact seeing what few there were repressed is due to no lack of qualified Black intellectuals, it's deliberate white supremacism, so don't put a naive act on.

Not a Newsom fan, but glad someone is saying this. We need to get real. People don’t rise to the task without clarity about what the task is. Waiting is not an option.

With Sandy Brondello out, Cheryl Reeve has officially been on the job longer than every other WNBA coach combined.

I’m a Lynx fan, so I have never liked Sandy Brondello. She made PHX and NY a big problem for MN and that is exactly why it’s CRAZY that she’s been fired. I love women’s basketball, but the league and some of the organizations are making terrible staffing choices. #wnba

One side has UNLIMITED no strings attached money and the other asks for 50 pages of paperwork for $10,000.

In case you were wondering if Cunningham was still a terrible bigot. The Fever actively (probably with help of Clark) recruited her knowing full well the issues they're having with their fanbase and her ideologies. This is what I mean when I say the Fever knowingly court a right wing culture. #wnba

If Jimmy Kimmel is a real one, he’ll call for solidarity with all of the academics and students under fire for their speech about Palestine and Kirk

Eventually we have to stop buying that Dems sacrifice people in order to win. They are not winning! They believe their hateful ideas. Let’s start believing them.

FOR THE FOLKS WONDERING WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE:

There is a direct ideological throughline between the "anti-CRT" movement/attacks on Black studies and the firing of Stephen Colbert and suspension of Jimmy Kimmel.

Not posting this to say "I told you so" but bc you must understand the storyline.

I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical.

One positive thing that's happening is that the "let's meet in the middle" people are looking more and more unhinged in the eyes of regular people. My FedBook page which includes a lot of normies is on fire regularly. Folks are done.

Question for the white liberals who have written columns praising Charlie Kirk in the name of "free speech."

Where are you columns actually DEFENDING THE FREE SPEECH of people who are being fired for [checks notes] quoting Charlie Kirk? (Which most of you white praisers didn't have the guts to do)

Do not assume that everything they set out to do is inevitable. They have been successfully fought on multiple fronts, from courtroom wins that have actually stuck to city and state governments that haven't backed down, to activists in the streets organizing against their violence.
