The only measure of the economy that really matters is how many people are willing to take jobs filling and running the concentration camps

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

tough choice: go in tired, stressed, unpaid and risk killing people OR call in sick.

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

ICE is not a β€œvulnerable group”. They are government employees who are paid by our taxes. The are armed, have the right to detain or kill you with little consequence. The police, similarly, are not a β€œvulnerable group”. Military is for defense. Civilian police are to serve and protect. Fuck ICE!

An FBI agent in the Washington field office has been fired for refusing to arrest and perp walk James Comey.

This news was first reported by Reuters.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

Just a reminder, because I think we legitimately forget sometimes:

Nice were also people who joined the party because it was the social thing to do. They were the people who looked the other way when they’re Jewish neighbors were hauled off. They were the actors who put their careers above the lives of others in order to take roles and propaganda films. There was civilians, who asked β€œbut what do we do about the Jewish problem?” And expected a legitimate answer. 

Those people were Nazis too. 

So when I say you’re acting like a Nazi, I’m not saying you are the one throwing the switch on the gas chambers or pulling the trigger on a gun. You are legitimizing and supporting a political ideology which harm and history will prove you wrong.

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence.

This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less.

Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.

Presidents? SCOTUS gives them immunity.

Corporations? SCOTUS makes it easier for them to pollute.

Billionaires? SCOTUS says they can buy elections.

But if you look Latino, speak Spanish, or work at a low wage job, SCOTUS says you can be abducted by masked agents.

The legacy of the Roberts court.
