Nine tek says PROTECT TRANS LIVES | BLM | FREE PALESTINE | acab

Like… my man why are you talking about ISIS. What is happening here

Haha I love to be accosted on the subway by an asshole who thinks my “not in our name” button means I want to get yelled at about how the little girls who died under us/isr bombing would have lived if Hamas had just done a unconditional surrender

Dissolving DHS, and obviously ICE within it, is imperative. And we also must not lose sight of this additional demand: Close the Camps, Bring Them Home. Ending DHS would end new abductions but we must also address all of those already completed.

ICE is murdering children. No hyperbole. 🇺🇸

Protest breaks out at Dilley immigration detention facility holding 5-year-old Liam Ramos A protest broke out Saturday at the ICE-run South Texas family detention complex in Dilley, where five-year-old Liam Ramos is being detained.

Reminder that, in recent days, children have rallied and protested for their freedom inside an ICE detention center where water has been described as "putrid" and meals reportedly contain “bugs,” dirt, and debris. This is where the kidnapped 5-year-old Liam Ramos is being held.

getting feds to say shit like this on camera with their face exposed is NUTS -- you can not reform this agency, everyone involved must go, there is no practical way to root out all of these guys

I only have one political opinion and it is that thinking should take place mostly in tanks

“It should be crystal clear to everyone that the real threat to community safety is the ICE agents harassing, targeting, detaining — and in some tragic cases — killing our neighbors. This violence is unacceptable, it is criminal, and it is against the constitution of the United States.”

We’re being led by the anti-vaxxers of the legal sphere:

People who’ve never lived without the protections of international law and domestic regulation, so they only notice the inconvenience, not the horrors prevented.

When institutions work, their benefits become invisible, until they’re gone.

Fraud was the excuse: this is the real goal, revealed - reduce safety net funding, but only in blue states.

Health Dept. to Freeze $10 Billion in Funding to 5 Democratic States

We're about to quickly re-up government funding by the end of this month because "no one wants a shutdown." Meanwhile Trump is enacting...a shutdown of TANF funds.
There are mechanisms to stop illegal withholding of appropriated funds, which won't be taken.

Along with Wise, other Trump Justice Department employees working on Jan. 6 matters include: Vance Day, who faced a series of ethical issues as an Oregon judge and was suspended from the bench; Jonathan Gross, a former Jan. 6 defense attorney who compared Capitol siege prosecutions to the Holocaust and helped spread conspiracy theories about the attack, including that it was instigated by the FBI; and Marshall Yates, the head of the FBI’s congressional affairs section, who was former Rep. Mo Brooks' chief of staff when Brooks, R-Ala., spoke at the Jan. 6 rally. Yates also worked for the Election Integrity Network, which is headed by a key figure in efforts to overturn the 2020, and he has said the “election objection did not go as we wanted” on Jan. 6.

Some news: Along with a Jan. 6 rioter, here are some of the other activists now embedded within the DOJ/FBI who are helping out with Ed Martin's J6 'weaponization' report. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Former Special Counsel, Jack Smith, explicitly states:

"President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy. These crimes were committed for his benefit. The attack that happened at the Capitol, part of this case, does not happen without him."

Nicholas Kristof: Several contradictory things are simultaneously true: 1. Maduro was an oppressive, unpopular and illegitimate ruler, disastrous for his country and the region. 2. Using the US to remove him may have been equally illegitimate.

“May have been”

Headline from Persuasion, Yascha Mounk's Piss Rag, entitled "Maduro Is Gone - Venezuela's Dictatorship is Not"

"First things first: the stunningly audacious raid that extracted Nicolás Maduro and his wife from Venezuela is a genuinely history-making victory for Donald Trump. At a cost of zero American lives, the United States captured a singularly destructive force: a dictator whose record of criminality and misrule blighted millions of Venezuelan lives and destabilized politics in the entire Western hemisphere." -Quote from Persuasion, Yascha Mounk's Piss Rag

The usual suspects all coming out today!

"Stunningly audacious" is a funny way to say "flagrantly illegal", but I'm not a writer at the esteemed Persuasion.

you simply do not have to preface your statements about this with “but Maduro sucks”

whether or not Maduro sucks is entirely beside the point - we invaded another country and grabbed their leader with no justification other than “we wanted to”

don’t give them cover on it

We should ask why it’s so easy for terms and concepts like “Heritage American” and “Western Chauvinism” are met with earnest analysis and exploration while academic theory produced by Black scholars are summarily dismissed by people reading introductory texts if that.

But that one white guy couldn’t get a job in Hollywood because woke!!!!

Screenshot of a tweet by Aaron Reichlin-Melnick criticizing a government official’s claim that due process should be ignored in immigration enforcement. The tweet argues that due process applies to everyone and is enshrined twice in the U.S. Constitution. Below it is a quoted tweet referencing a statement attributed to Stephen Miller about deportations, alongside a video still of a man speaking at a podium outdoors.

My family and I, and the entire Japanese American community on the West Coast, were denied due process during our internment in WWII. It is a cherished, critical right for all people within the U.S.’s borders.

This has been the autocrat’s playbook for a decade or two: have friendly oligarchs buy up independent media and then they impose government-friendly editorial policies so the autocrat doesn’t have to get their hand directly dirty killing the free press.

it's so deeply unfair that the NFT haters get content like this after barely a year of hype, and meanwhile the Tesla haters are dying of old age waiting for our time in the sun

Harvard's first Black president was bullied out of office by a guy who was best buddies with Jeffrey Epstein, that's still sinking in

You roll into Ohare one week before Christmas and cause chaos in the rideshare lot for only one reason and it's not to keep people safe.

the idea that a handful of conservative legal scholars have an understanding that should supersede a settlement affirmed my generations of american is astoundingly arrogant, and the idea that trump — or any president — can unilaterally overturn that settlement is just despotism

The evidence is the text. All you have to do is read the Constitution.

I can't remember the last time I thought "Oh good. Hillary's weighing in on this."

The 1960s was basically a coda tacked on the end of the 50s, until it became prelude to the 70s, whose culture extended well into the 80s, which lasted until about 1993, after which point we enter what I like to refer to as the New Millennium
