Abolish ICE is the compromise position. We need to abolish the entire Department of Homeland Security, which was created after 9-11 with the express purpose of terrorizing immigrant communities, activists, and ordinary people in a sickening display of security theater that does not make anyone safer

See the difference? 🤨

There might be a method to this madness, as several people have noted: tariffs announced, markets fall, rich buddies who know better buy; tariffs revoked, markets bounce back, rich buddies even richer.

Remember when the story broke about a worm eating part of his brain and nobody was that surprised?

"The Zionists weren't in the the concentration camp they forced Gazans into"

Art of the deal is raising the tariff to 145% then cutting it almost in half despite the fact that China has made no concessions and has completely ignored you. Xi just sits back at laughs at our orange clown.

100 men vs. 1 gorilla?

How about the working class against the oligarchy?

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.

This is the real fight we need to be talking about.

MAGA cultists are like hypnotized sheep following their Dear Leader.

The only reason to not list the tariffs separately is if the business has no intention of lowering the price after the tariffs are reduced or eliminated.

"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

That's not what the US does. The US finances killing children, when it isn't doing the killing itself. It only sanctions countries that threaten its capitalist or imperialist agendas.

On opposite day

This is correct from @joeweisenthal.bsky.social

STOP normalizing and repeating their dangerous, rhetoric!

The 238 Venezuelans were NOT deported. They were illegally abducted.

“Suspected gang member”
Being a gang member alone is not a crime. And “suspected” by whom?

Detention centers are concentration camps.

ICE is America’s Gestapo.

Hegseth spent ‘several thousand dollars’ turning Pentagon room into a make-up studio for his TV spots, report says Amid alleged chaos and infighting at Department of Defense, alterations were ordered to green room for press briefings

Bringing the L’Oréal warfighting ethos.

Meh, if his fuckups interfere with US attacking people he can keep fucking up.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

REMINDER: Social Security has a fraud rate of 0.00625%, which is far lower than private sector retirement programs.

That would be a ton of cops getting deported

Too little salt intake can also cause the body to retain water. Proper hydration involves electrolytes. If water doesn't satisfy your thirst it's because your body is low on electrolytes.

Sure, if that's all cops and the national guard are allowed to use & own. Get all them to surrender them THEN come for the working class' weapons

Until cops aren't allowed to carry guns & national guard is dissolved we need the same weapons they get.

Yeah, weakening the working class even more is a great idea 🙄

Who the Bible says to kill isn't even the worst of us. Commanding soldier to take girls from the people they conquer as sex slaves...
