This is a sobering and important read. It pulls together a lot of historically imporant shifts in power dynamics globally. We live now in a world where the power of the nation state is rivaled by the power of individuals, and groups of indviduals.

Hundreds of thousands of Americans are currently stranded in a war zone because the President raped little kids.
Every ICE officer who has broken the law should be arrested, tried, and imprisoned for their crimes.
Same. It impacts students and others who are going abroad. We’ve already had to abandon the CDC vaccination requirements and use the Thai ones (which are excellent!), and are running into more students who are not vaccinated or can’t get a vaccination they need in the US.
They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.
An Irish man held by ICE for five months despite having a valid work permit and no criminal record says he fears for his life and has appealed for help from Ireland’s government.
“I’m not in fear of the other inmates. I’m afraid of the staff. They’re capable of anything.”
Goldman: “You & your untrained, unqualified, unvetted, unidentified agents are intentionally terrorizing our cities & communities all over this country to avoid accountability for their excessive force & their lawless actions — that is why you're wearing masks. So no one can hold you accountable”
kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them
Yes, we need ALL the Epstein files.
BREAKING: The Trump administration blatantly lied about the shooting of Alex Pretti, according to Ron Paul.
HES RIGHT, IMPEACH TRUMP NOW!
Greg Bovino getting pulled out of Minnesota to terrorize another community is not accountability. At all.
If this doesn’t tug at your heart, make you well up with sadness, you are not human.
This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.
These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.
His name is Liam Ramos, and he is 5. He was abducted from Minneapolis and trafficked to a detention camp in Texas.
😳😳😳😳
The ICE agents literally are accessories to murder.
Investigate and prosecute political opponents, sell pardons to your rich friends so they can commit crimes with impunity. Authoritarianism isn’t coming, it’s here, whether people realize it or not.
Know your rights if ICE show up.
An important piece from @kimwehle.bsky.social and Zeteo:
FYI: Judge Ellis (Chicago ICE case) noted in November that video evidence shows ICE "brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."
Posted by @liminalwarmth.bsky.social:
“Someone I personally know in Minneapolis posted this to Facebook a few hours ago. This isn’t what orderly law enforcement looks like. No charge, no location info? How do you even know citizens are getting due process here?”
An ICE agent saying "I don't care" and preventing an innocent woman who's been shot from receiving medical care are not the words or actions of officers lawfully protecting themselves and the community. These are the words of sociopaths happy with murder.
It is honestly hard to overstate how bad RFKjr has been — and how many children will die as a direct result of his policies.
Jesse Ventura speaks for all of us.
A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
