Not built enough for ads to be placed throughout lol. Needs to be like American football where they stop every few minutes. Perfect for commercials.

Two tuberculosis cases detected at Camp East Montana ICE facility Eighteen cases of COVID-19 were also identified. U.S. Rep. Veronica Escobar on Friday visited the 5,000-bed tent facility on the Fort Bliss Army base and said she saw many "chronic issues."

Begging folks to realize that ICE enforcement is a mass disabling event.

People are being shot. They’ve been blinded. They’ve been traumatized.

The camps are full of disease.

TB, Covid and measles can all kill but they also disable.

It’s eugenics.

Every trusting a Republican was the mistake. Never make it again.

Turns out there is no "savvy" way to spin genocide support and those that sold that idea, and those that bought it, are equally deluded and detached from reality. That's political consulting for you!

Supporting genocide is generally distasteful to large swaths of the electorate, turns out. I mean, that's reassuring right?

Conservatives are like the Taliban or other warlords, they don't care if its a stinking pile of shit they rule over, as long as they rule. Destroying education was always part of that.

they're protesting in the streets because their currency went to zero. At that point its protest or starve. And since the regime is shooting people who protest, it sure wasn't going to be "corruption" that got people to get shot protesting.

Look if this is true and if the evidence comes out this will have to be one of the funniest things to occur this century and the fallout of enforcing the military to do this is gonna be so delicious.

I hope the journos dig in.

Jeffrey Epstein types like a dog would talk

This seems extremely undemocratic, but I guess not the first time Republicans have sought to unwind successful voter and ballot initiatives the conservatives didn't like. I wonder what the count is coming from Democratic controlled govts, for good measure lol. we all know the answer, or near it

Virginia State Senator Louise Lucas is just a delight on every level

The US is traumatizing thousands of kids in detention camps. But we are also traumatizing *millions* of kids who are in hiding or fear their parents being snatched.

Like how we have tens of thousands of kids who have survived school shootings, and a whole generation shaped by active shooter drills.

Why Delia Ramirez thinks DHS needs to be dismantled "Why would we ever want to give them more money to keep doing what they’re doing?"

New in PN: Why Delia Ramirez thinks DHS needs to be dismantled

"We have to ask ourselves, fundamentally, why would we ever want to give them more money to keep doing what they’re doing?"

AWFUL news tonight. This blesses the “mandatory” detention in the 5th Circuit without bond (and little chance at habeas) of every undocumented immigrant who originally entered across the border, no matter how many decades in the past.

It will fuel ICE’s push to transfer people to Texas immediately.

In sum, the government’s proposed reading of the statute would mean that, for purposes of immigration detention, the border is now everywhere. That is not the law Congress passed, and if it had, it would have spoken much more clearly. I dissent.

Douglass makes it plain in dissent. But our court system is shit now.

Tatiani Elliot was brave today.

She is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and gave her testimony in front of Washington state legislators. And they silenced her.

What is striking is that the rest of the Republicans and the right are so devoid of beliefs or morality that they LET themselves be driven by that one man's emotional dysregulation and dysfunction.

Announcer: "ooohhuuhh those are a lotta boos for him...."

lmao gotta love it.

At least money in politics and Citizens United, the danger of billionaires to society, has entered the common awareness... but at what cost.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

Nice sentiment but that time is past. They lie with abandon, because they can.

They know they are unaccountable and if you say "Liar!" they ignore or smile and move on, because they can.

They behave this way because they know they are unaccountable.

This is bc authoritarians have never had an original or creative thought in their lives, but co-opt and steal ideas and tactics. In this case, helpfully laid out by the likes of John Yoo, Rumsfeld and Bush.

Everything this administration is abusing/weaponizing has a distinct precedent in immediate prior administrations, including the use of OLC memos to set legal precedent. This is what happens when one party has been a bad faith actor for generations and people just go along with it.

The US has never been good at democracy, its only in the last 10 percent or less of its history that even a bare majority of its inhabitants can *technically* vote (but in reality even that is made difficult)

Its good that not-left has been revealed for what it is, authoritarianism, either aspiring (moderate right) or full-blown (right)

Every time you hear Russia mentioned regarding the files and finance/backing of Epstein, remember Israel too. They both have well oiled kompromat operations and overlap in their poaching of 'assets' (terrible people who can be used), and can play 'good cop/bad cop' re: US policy.
