The last time they called for full martial law and a blood soaked civil war was like yesterday over cracker barrel changing their logo

Seizure medication, wheelchairs, Social Security cards, dentures, urns of ashes, work uniforms β€” just some of what's been thrown away during cruel, degrading, utterly counterproductive homeless sweeps.

A good time to revisit this gutting @propublica.org story:

As I literally just yesterday was saying to somebody, if their "AI" is so good and useful for literally, why do they have to keep tricking us into using it, shoving it without warning into all the tools we actually *Want* to use, or otherwise forcing it on us without our consent?

β€œA U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing.

Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.

Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop.

McIver is arrested.
Padilla is handcuffed.
Hortman is assassinated.
Lander is arrested.

Meanwhile, Jeffries won’t blame Trump. Martin won’t blame Trump. And Schumer will demand an investigation by Trump.

β€œYou don’t have the authority to arrest US citizens,” Lander said. β€œI’m not obstructing, I am standing right here in the hallway. … You don’t have the authority to arrest US citizens asking for a judicial warrant.”

Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

It is really really sinking in for me the degree to which LLMs are the ultimate expression of right wing anti-intellectualism. Its proponents are literally mocking the idea that anyone would ever want to learn anything, know anything, develop any actual skill, or have a thought of their own.

The Minnesota assassin appears to be a hate-filled right winger. So can we stop walking on eggshells about MAGA's legitimization of political violence?

Yes, Republicans have also been the target of inexcusable violence, but this isn't a "both sides" issue.

It is also unacceptable to threaten to take over a major city with military force and effectively end democratic governance there. That’s why the Senator was there. Let’s not lose sight of that.

One problem for the administration was that ICE had only about 5,000 officers ready and trained to make arrests, according to an agency official.
As ICE officers face more threats, they form ever-larger teams to conduct arrests, officials said. Larger teams means ICE can be in fewer places.
Officials from the White House and the Department of Homeland Security have made clear there will be consequences for not hitting arrest targets.
Top officials at DHS have pushed out one acting ICE director and are threatening a second.
Late last month, the top ICE official overseeing arrests and deportations, Kenneth Genalo, resigned rather than fire deputies for poor performance, said people familiar with the matter.
One reason deportations haven't picked up might be that ICE operations have received so much attention, prompting migrants to be more cautious, according to agents and leaders.

The White House is demanding that ICE get deportations up, and ordering any career law enforcement who objects to get the hell out of the way.

The head of ICE’s Enforcement and Removal operations apparently resigned rather than obey an order to fire ICE officers who weren’t hitting arrest quotas!

Cannot express enough how much what happened at that meeting three weeks ago has changed things on the ground.

Courthouse arrests started within days, then check-in arrests. Worksite raids, once rare, began happening daily. Detention has skyrocketed over capacity. People are going missing.

Gavin Newsom just gave a strong speech laying out the stakes for democracy in blunt language that too few powerful Democrats have been willing to use. I know the huge problems with him. But at this awful moment, playing the "Sorry, he's dead to me" game with Democrats seems an unaffordable luxury.

"President Trump wants to be bound by no law or Constitution," says California Gov. Newsom in a formal address to the state in which he accuses the commander-in-chief of escalating tensions in Los Angeles by sending US Marines and 2,000 additional National Guard troops.

The speed with which the country is disassembling! I keep wondering how the regime thinks the US will function without Black and brown people, in a white fantasia. The people left won’t be able to feed themselves, heal themselves, build their homes, or flavor their food. What a choice!

This is sort of what happened with DOGE. They were convinced there was a mountain of easily-detectable waste and fraud that a handful of folks equipped with "common sense" could root out & eliminate in a manner of weeks. And there wasn't. But they had promised headlines about big cuts...

Trump said he would deport 11 million people and I guess his voters couldn’t visualize what that would look like?

That’s the same amount of people who live in Iowa and Nebraska and Kansas and Arkansas combined…

when it comes to less lethals you don't need ballistic armor, which is expensive

bike helmet. Hockey helmets. goggles. football pads or just extra padding if it's not too hot

there are always trade offs with armor but please if you go out at least protect your eyes and head.
