in real terms, #7 would give states leverage to put an end to surges, #8 would give states the ability to outright stop construction of new detention facilities, #1 and #6 would slow the rate at which DHS could train and deploy officers, #2 and #10 would likely shrink the pool of recruits

Welcome to Bluesky. Here are your Anti-ICE whistles and a PPV of AEW for some reason

This is the thesis of the whole series, yes?

It’s an interesting one to think about.

“The enemy always wins and we still need to fight him, that’s all I know.”

Good lord. “This list should give pause to anyone—no matter his or her political beliefs—who cares about the rule of law. ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”

Someone wrote the lyrics to Tyler Childers' song Long Violent History in chalk on my campus.

"It's the worst that it's been since the last time it happened
It's happening again right in front of our eyes
There's updated footage, wild speculation
Tall tales and hearsay and absolute lies"

ohhh ‘democracy dies in darkness’ was aspirational

Homeless Oregon youth got $1,000 a month for two years. Most found housing after • Oregon Capital Chronicle Oregon is the second of its kind in the nation to implement the direct cash transfer program after New York City.

"By the end of the two-year period, 94% of participants reported they were housed."

A million pilot programs show the same thing: when people are given enough money to afford housing, homelessness ends.

Other supports matter, but housing comes first. Not policing. Not moralizing. Homes.

Yes this is definitely me as well

I love that soundtrack! It’s one of the few musicals written in my post watching live theater era (because of kids and moves) that I can say I’ve listened to all the songs multiple times. I bet it’s so fun on stage!!

The World is Not Enough is an improvement on the first two so I feel like the broccoli children were on to something

That is pretty long!

I know in that protest music collection I have there’s several in this category too lol

A few honorable mentions:

This is fun!

Based on my streaming history it’s this one, which I will now have stuck in my head for the rest of the night (complementary)

I understand the reasons why it’s more jarring and consequential to see it happen among billionaires, but the kind of shrugging disinterest or impishly approving encouragement of sexual abuse among Epstein’s circle is the same dynamic that happens in less powerful milieus.

Philidelphia DA Larry Krasner warns ICE: If an agent commits crimes in Philly, I will charge you. You will be arrested. You will stand trial, and you will be convicted in state or federal court and you will do your time. Donald Trump can't pardon you for a state court conviction.

It’s really sad but also a satisfying conclusion to the five films imo (I cry at sappy commercials though so it might not be that touching to normal people lol)

I hope you both enjoy it! I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed watching them all together.

I am also now down a Broccoli family rabbit hole

Is it that they are bad movies or were they decent movies for the time but don’t age as well?

Having now finished Tomorrow Never Dies I’m starting to think the Pierce Brosnan films are just not very good 🫣

We need to change the game and that starts by ceasing to revere institutions that proved themselves untrustworthy cowards or allies in this era.
