Imagine the right-wing reaction if Starmer or Biden had proposed something like this

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.

If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

If this is true, the US is truly a failed state openly embracing Nazism.

Brett Kavanaugh's "minor inconvience" now includes beating people up and cutting off their wedding rings for [checks notes] "observing ICE from a distance."

Of course, the undisputed facts are precisely the opposite of what speaker Johnson claims. Biden‘s economy was fantastic, with inflation coming down. Trump and the GOP broke that economy: their tariffs slowed investment and job growth, and pushed inflation higher.

Maybe that’s why Republicans want a bigger military?

Bove has also—after being sworn in as a judge on the Third Circuit—been observed visiting Main Justice for consultations with Bondi and Blanche. Grossly unethical conduct.

Travelers visiting the United States from countries like Britain, France, Germany and South Korea could soon have to undergo a review of up to five years of their social media history, according to a proposal filed on Tuesday by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The change would affect visitors eligible for the visa waiver program, which allows people from 42 countries to travel to the United States for up to 90 days without a visa as long as they first obtain electronic travel authorization. In a document filed on Tuesday in the Federal Register, C.B.P. said it plans to ask applicants for a long list of personal data including social media, email addresses from the last decade, and the names, birth dates, places of residence and birthplaces of parents, spouses, siblings and children. Under the current system, applicants from visa waiver countries must enroll in the Electronic System for Travel Authorization program. They pay $40 and submit an email address, home address, phone number and emergency contact information. The authorization is good for two years.

DOJ's "Domestic Terrorism" Memo Targets "Anti-Americanism, Anti-Capitalism, Anti-Christianity" Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

The justice department should not be targeting people because of their personal beliefs. It’s anti-American.

It’s a well-known rule that you can take whatever assertion made by Steve Miller and the opposite is almost certainly true.

Knowing the high-performing immigrant families I know, I can't imagine this is true. In fact, I suspect it's the opposite.

ICE is not above the Constitution.
They often use administrative warrants—not signed by judges—to enter homes or detain people.
That violates the Fourth Amendment.

This thread is like one of those sci-fi movies where they stumble upon a destroyed spaceship and find the log reports of the captain slowly going insane.

I mean, it pretty clearly is disinhibition. If it was just the attack on female journalists that would be one thing, but it’s the snapping at women journalists, and the public ranting about Somalis, *and* all the bizarre videos he started impulsively clicking Share on over at Truth Social.

Said it before and I'll say it again, Texas is the number one laboratory of fascism in the US right now. The TX GOP should be brutalized by a 2029 Reconstruction admin - for its massive and open corruption, for its numerous criminal civil rights offenses, and frankly whatever else will stick.

Trump’s Own Mortgages Match His Description of Mortgage Fraud, Records Reveal The Trump administration has argued that Fed board member Lisa Cook may have committed mortgage fraud by declaring more than one primary residence on her loans. We found Trump once did the very thing ...

It is important that people understand Trump is using DOJ as a weapon against people for mortgage fraud, when it appears he did the same thing. It's an abuse of the Justice Department.

Nice thought, but Trump and Putin are not gonna let the Europeans change the plan. And the Europeans have no power.

These poor Europeans just don’t get it. Trump does not give a damn about their opinions or the consequences of his “peace” on Europe.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?

A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

Opinion | I was a red state governor. What I saw at Harvard surprised me. The spirit of association remains alive in unexpected places.

Column worth reading, by former two-term GOP governor who discovers that Harvard is not the hellscape of intolerance and group-think that the MAGA and its media are constantly telling him about.

(Think of parallels in so many other realms.)

The purpose of this administration’s attack on higher education is stifle any critical thinking with regard to Israel and our Middle Eastern policies.

Opinion | I was a red state governor. What I saw at Harvard surprised me. The spirit of association remains alive in unexpected places.

Former Indiana Gov Eric Holcomb (R) says the Trump attacks on Ivy League universities like Harvard rests on a gushing stream of malicious bullshit, much of which is given strategic support and validation by Trump's key ally in the process, Jonathan Greenblatt and his ADL.

ChrisO_wiki: A sign of the times: the US military Southcom tweets an image of a soldier with a Jerusalem Cross—used by violent white supremacists groups—on his helmet. The symbol isn't part of any official US military insignia, but it is being promoted by Hegseth.

They are now targeting people who did everything by the book and were literally at the ceremony where they were going to become citizens...

Second greatest. China is most powerful.

Because he agrees with Putin culturally? He likes authoritarian governments, the ability of dictators to enrich themselves, and he thinks cultural tolerance weakens a country.

Perhaps Professor Wurman has his own axe to grind on the desirability of countries being able to define in a very granular and restrictive fashion who their first class citizens are? That’s not in the mainstream of America’s view of itself of course.

Very good point! Elements of Southern white culture have spread its tentacles far and wide.
