@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”

Three million people live in Caracas, five million in the metro area. It's one of the densest cities in South America. Remember this in the morning when they try to spin this as anything other than a cold-blooded attack on a major civilian center.

As a Ukrainian, if you ever cared about Russia's fascist illegal, illegitimate and unjust invasion of Ukraine, you should absolutely care about US's fascist illegal, illegitimate and unjust invasion of Venezuela. My solidarity and best wishes to all Venezuelans.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

this is as good as turning the Constitution off. If this is what congressional leaders are going to do when an executive just seizes power from the legislative branch, we do not have one.

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

Sooooo Dems on Intelligence Committees were not briefed Iran nuclear facilities were to be bombed — that is some straight up impeachable BS

Don’t roll up here with “but Obama, but Biden” they didn’t exclude an entire political party. Trump should be removed from office.

It’s so weird to see “World War III” trending when it ACTUALLY might really happen

Photo from the San Francisco Chronicle showing a No Kings Day protester facing off with national guard. The national guard are heavy armed and behind riot shields. The protester is a young woman, absolutely unbothered, holding a large fan up by her shoulder and eyeing the NG with a look of bemusement.

The energy we all need to survive 2025.

They better not forget to include the Kennedy Center in the in memoriam. #TonyAwards #Tonys2025

Lots of people I know that were furious about kids having to wear masks are real quiet about a two year old citizen being wrongfully deported

I think about Raul’s “nadie me oye” on a near daily basis 🥲

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Diary of Anne Frank
January 13, 1943

There are three key facts in the Holocaust Encyclopedia produced by the US Holocaust Memorial Museum. This is the second key fact: What distinguishes a concentration camp from a prison (in the modern sense) is that it functions outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process.

This, from the Holocaust Memorial Museum.

This is it people. This is the moment of the camps.

Is this who we are? 😳🇺🇸

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Canadians are pissed off. Cory Booker is pissed off. It's revenge of the nice people out here

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Every network should be covering this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCUK...

A picture of Neri Alvarado, a young man, standing next to his brother, who is a young teenager. Both are smiling for the camera and wearing matching shirts. Neri has his arm around his brother.

A picture of Neri's tattoo, which is an autism ribbon in rainbow colors with his brother's name "Neryelson" written on it.

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos.

Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

These “facilities” are quickly becoming death camps… and far too many people are looking the other way.

We can’t be silent in the face of atrocities just because we aren’t the target. We must speak up for those being harmed, killed & othered.

Fascism will come for everyone, no one is safe.

Right??? They called me out for laughing at it but tbh how could I not 😂

I'm teaching my HS theatre students improv. And today one kid took the suggestion of dragon and opened a scene with “Is your mom a dragon? Because I’m dragon deez nuts across her face.” And I’ve never been more proud and disappointed all at once 🥲

These people are kept in a windowless cage for 23.5 hours a day at this labor camp. We sentenced them to spend their lives there indefinitely, suffering unspeakable abuse and probably never seeing their families again, for no reason.

How it feels to be American right now—

Unfortunately the United States of America is now I Need Six Eggs Lady from Beauty and the Beast

An entire branch of ICE investigators scouring the internet for your political posts should scare the shit out of you.
