I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.
Grant us grace fearlessly to contend against evil and to make no peace with oppression
1. Trump has launched a torrent of bigoted invective against Somali migrants, calling them "garbage" and demanding they be kicked out of the country
Now, the Trump administration is rigging the immigration courts against them
We've uncovered the details of the scheme
Also there are literally only two things that would ever cause you to meet with the guy:
1) Child Sex Traffiking.
2) I thought the child sex traffiker's network would really help me get a leg up in my career.
Saying "I was doing the second one!" Okay.... you still suck shit!
The Democrats prefer order to liberty they would rather you quietly sit back while the Gestapo takes your neighbors and then vote for them in November so they can make the Gestapo 18.3% less violent on average than see you fight and stop ICE's ethnic cleansing
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
The Onion and reality have never been closer to convergence.
And that makes them guilty of "levying war upon the United States" aka treason.
The phrase "in theater" is a tell that they really do think this is a war. And that makes them traitors according to the Treason Clause of the Constitution.
"in theater"??? this is my fucking home, and to the extent that it feels like a warzone it is exclusively your fault, just GET OUT
This could have been written this morning. How exact and how applicable every word is. "Stealing the livery of the court of heaven to serve the devil in." No better description exists of the blasphemous, murderous, corrupt America of Trump and of ICE.
"Return CBP to the border"
Now that you have seen what CBP does, why is it okay to have them on the US-Mexico or US-Canada border? Some people say they want "a controlled border" but at what cost to life?
All of these right wing twitter dipshits are screaming about insurgency are ideologically incapable of understanding that they're not fighting guerillas who move through the people like fish through the sea, they're fighting the fucking sea
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
Minneapolis has developed an effective new tactic to disrupt ICE and break companies away:
Make a ton of late-night noise outside the hotels ICE agents are staying at
Minneapolis organizer Aru Shiney-Ajay explains why this tactic has been so powerful — and how people nationwide can do the same 🧵
This is fascinating. Barely a phrase in common with the final song. If I've ever written anything that started this far from where it ended up, I don't remember when. (I've also never written a song as good as "No Children".)
Let him be the first of many.
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today. ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.
Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.
"Please get the truth out about our son."
Is she referring to the Boston Massacre or...?
A message from Scotland to Trump on Burns Night
Ye see yon birkie ca’d a lord,
Wha struts, an’ stares, an’ a’ that,
Tho’ hundreds worship at his word,
He’s but a coof for a’ that.
For a’ that, an’ a’ that,
His ribband, star, an’ a’ that,
The man o’ independent mind,
He looks an’ laughs at a’ that
I am not any more comfortable with a highly trained fascist street gang.
ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
Noem, Bovino, Miller, and Trump are all guilty of high treason. They are levying war on the United States.
ICE detained Purple Heart veteran William Vermie for hours at the Whipple Federal Building.
He says he’s speaking out because he’s white, he has privilege and if he doesn’t use it to stand up for others, who will?
That is what solidarity looks like.
It's not normal - it is HIGH TREASON by the President of the United States and several high-ranking officials including Noem, Bovino and Miller. Levying war against your own country is Treason.
🧵Any Member of Congress can introduce the case that Donald Trump is levying war on the US in violation of the Treason Clause, and that treason is self-impeaching conduct. Every member should. The critical audience for this argument, now, is not their GOP colleagues but the public and the military 1/
We have unlimited money for paramilitary forces that kidnap people off the streets but also have something called "school lunch debt" what are we doing here
no honor, no dignity. a lifetime of trying to atone for the wrong they’re doing will not be enough. The appropriate posture for them all this morning is on their knees in the Minnesota cold begging the God of the universe, Who is against them, for forgiveness
What if he invades Minnesota
