Everything is a distraction.

The bottom line is they won’t release the entire file because it CLEARLY implicates TACO and other powerful donors.

That’s it.

All this other shit is noise.

Because we didn’t adequately punish the Confederates,

Jim Crow happened.

Because we didn’t adequately punish Jim Crow,

Jan 6 happened.

Because we didn’t adequately punish Jan 6,

the destruction of the Constitution happened.

Migrants at a Miami immigration jail were shackled with their hands tied behind their backs and made to kneel to eat food from styrofoam plates “like dogs”, according to a report published on Monday into conditions at three overcrowded south Florida facilities. The incident at the downtown federal detention center is one of a succession of alleged abuses at Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (Ice) operated jails in the state since January, chronicled by advocacy groups Human Rights Watch, Americans for Immigrant Justice, and Sanctuary of the South from interviews with detainees.

Migrants at a Miami immigration prison have been compelled to kneel to eat food from styrofoam plates “like dogs,” with their hands tied behind their backs.

These ICE officials need to go straight to The Hague.

US ‘illegally deported’ Vietnamese and Burmese migrants to South Sudan Immigrant rights advocates say White House violated court order and ask judge to order nearly a dozen people’s return

It's not really deportation if people are sent to countries where they never lived. It's a human trafficking ring.

Last year my wife had breast cancer and a double mastectomy.

This morning, for the first time ever, she was challenged in the changing rooms at the swimming pool. Her breasts were not what make her a woman - but, breasts or not, she is entitled to dignity and protection from vigilantes.

Gaza is being starved – open the border now!

Yesterday, protesters in the Netherlands demanded an end to the genocide.

She was 9 weeks pregnant. She died. The state of Georgia is making the doctors keep her alive to incubate the baby. She’s been dead for three months. This is REAL. this isn’t about what should or should not be done. This is about having a VOICE. This is about having a CHOICE.

"Nobody's protesting!"

"Actually people are protesting and marching and doing all of this and the news media just isn't reporting on it."

"I guess America is just scared and lazy or probably even wants this."

"Motherfucker did you hear what I just said..."

"Sigh!"

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means.

It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

"Why aren't young people protesting?"

Consider—because they all got their shit rocked by police and prosecutors last year trying to stop a genocide, and you abandoned them.

ICE can enter anyone’s home, and abduct and deport them to a foreign prison indefinitely because the DOJ says they can ignore the 4th, 5th and 15th amendments.

If there’s no due process or protections against illegal search and seizures, none of us are safe.

"They want obedient workers. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay the longer hours the reduced benefits the end of overtime and the vanishing pension" ~George Carlin

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows:

An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

Huge shoutout to everyone this is what a global boycott looks like. Tesla just reported a staggering 71% drop in profits compared to Q1 of 2024. It’s working. Keep the pressure on.

“The reason we’re here is because the government of the United States wants you to leave the United States,” Judge Ubaid ul-Haq, presiding from a courtroom on Varick Street, told a group of about a dozen children on a recent morning on Webex. “It’s my job to figure out if you have to leave,” ul-Haq continued. “It’s also my job to figure out if you should stay.” The parties included a 7-year-old boy, wearing a shirt emblazoned with a pizza cartoon, who spun a toy windmill while the judge spoke. There was an 8-year-old girl and her 4-year-old sister, in a tie-dye shirt, who squeezed a pink plushy toy and stuffed it into her sleeve. None of the children were accompanied by parents or attorneys, only shelter workers who helped them log on to the hearing.

Children as young as *four* are being put in the position of representing themselves without lawyers/parents present in front of immigration judges in cases that will determine whether they are deported.

HHS plans to cut the national suicide hotline’s program for LGBTQ youth In February, the program received an average of 2,100 contacts per day.

The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

I just want to close out today telling Merrick Garland to go to hell for what his feckless ineptitude and cowardice wrought upon this country.

Did you know that ICE has only existed since 2003.

9/11 was in 2001.

I remember kids suddenly missing from class. A kid on my brother's soccer team got pulled over for a headlight and they deported him and his family over it.

If someone is being kidnapped infront of you and they fail to identify themselves as law enforcement, you have every moral obligation to get involved and stop a kidnapping.

You cannot trust some rando in house clothing saying “I’m the cops I swear” and take them on their word.

The wrong ICE is melting The wrong Amazon is burning

Sign of the day…

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

The fact that an entire administration and fully 40% of America thinks it’s ok to send people to a concentration camp in the middle of nowhere,

without an OUNCE of evidence they committed a crime is INSANE!

It’s more shocking and frightening than anything I have seen from my countryman.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

If you're non-disabled and are furious about recent ableist comments, one material thing you can do is ask disabled and chronically ill people in your life if they need help with anything. They may say no and respect that, but we live in an ableist society where asking for help is hard.

True facts are true

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

I'd also like to add this quote:

"If you won't vaccinate your kid(s) because it supposedly causes autism, you're saying you'd rather have a DEAD child than an AUTISTIC child."

Marinate on that.

Please repeat over and over:

“Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.”
