With the recent Waymo car fires, it's time again to remind everyone that destruction of property is only categorized as violence so that the state has a justification to use violence against you. They're inanimate objects, and they're not worth as much as people. That shouldn't be controversial.

BREAKING: A federal judge says Trump ILLEGALLY deployed the National Guard to help with LA protests. (AP)

there, that's the last hair i could split- the walls are actually three dimensional now. they're in the depth channel and everything. (w/ usual raycaster limits on view angle.) i had to manually calibrate the contribution of the displacement to the depth. i suspect i have it a little too steep.

Odd, how MS-13 gang members are all ALL OVER California during elections, but conspicuously absent when ICE is rounding up "criminals" in that state. Instead, ICE goes to Home Depot to arrest helpful people looking for home improvement jobs. It's *almost* as if everything Trump tells us is a lie.

Is there one single thing the Trump Administration has undertaken that has not turned to shit or that is not sure to turn to shit? One thing that has not made America weaker? One thing that is not causing suffering or will cause it soon?

Former Deputy National Security Advisor for Obama 👇🏽

The silence of our military leaders is deafening.

Fear…is the most powerful force in the world when transmuted into focused and unrelenting anger. Fear…left in its original form…spells: The. End. Of. Democracy. Sen. Padilla has provided this country with an opportunity.

These officers ought to be fired and possibly charged. Noem ought to resign in disgrace.

clip from the AP live stream of Padilla's remarks... "If this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers... We will hold this administration accountable."

This entire "national immigration emergency" is the fakedy-est faked fake emergency in the history of fakery That is what it was on January 20, and that is what it is now The whole thing is a steaming, fly-riddled pile of horseshit and anyone who tracks immigration trends knows it

“You see plenty of elected officials getting into it with each other. You do not see the FBI or secret service dragging their colleagues to the floor and cuffing them…It is the ethos of this administration to treat people not as colleagues, but enemies." - @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social

There are now more U.S. troops deployed in Los Angeles than in Iraq and Syria combined. 4,800 Guard and Marines on American streets. 2,500 troops in Iraq. 1,500 in Syria. Hell of a flex, America—treating your own people like a war zone.

This is Kristi Noem admitting that Homeland Security is currently occupying Los Angeles, not to protect citizens, but for purely *political* reasons. Yes, she really is that stupid.

Any President whose goons tackles, forcibly remove, and handcuffs a sitting U.S. Senator – on camera in broad daylight – will do anything to any one of us behind closed doors.

Kristi Noem has that rare ability to shoot her dog in the face and it *still* not be the worst thing she ever did in her sorry, lying life.

“ICE” as snatching people from churches now. Never forget they said this👇🏾 MAN AT CHURCH: “We don’t want this in our property.” ICE: “The whole country is our property.” No IDs shown, non-government out of state plates, basic tactical vests that just say police. Who are these men?

“The sentiment across the board right now is that deploying military force against our own communities isn’t the kind of national security we signed up for.” - Sarah Streyder of the Secure Families Initiative, representing military, veterans and their families. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Think of ICE as one of those crooked Florida police departments in small towns that pulls over *thousands* of drivers on I-95 for *any* reason to meet quotas for tickets. Stephen Miller has given ICE quotas for arrests and they will meet those quotas whether the arrestees deserve it or not.

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety. It's our job.

If you show up in riot gear, you’re not trying to keep the peace. You’re dressing for the fight you want.

y’all i found a new reason to live

Easy to understand even without translation..

Seems worth noting that Noem's story is that "no one knew who" Padilla was. Hmmm. You're in CA with US marines in LA. CA.... I think two senators? You don't know what one of the state's two senators looks like?

When a cabinet member announces "We are using the military to liberate an American city from its elected leaders," where do you go from there. What is left to say. The idea of that being anything short of a near-universal "Wait, what the fuck is going on" moment proves how far we've backslid.

a SENATOR. Eyes open! They have no respect for anyone.

Every word of this is false. Why would the New York Times even print this?

VIDEO: Here is the Regime treating a duly elected U.S. Senator like a farm animal because he had the temerity to ask questions of Kristi Noem. Fascism is here. The jackboot of Big Government is pressing down on all our faces, and the only question is what we do next.

Sen. Alex Padilla just got forcibly removed from Kristi Noem’s presser—for daring to ask real questions? Outrageous. This is what GOP “freedom” looks like: silencing truth. Padilla showed guts. Noem showed cowardice. I'm pissed? Are you?

NEW: European far-right activist Martin Sellner told me last week he was already convinced Trump was enacting his racist remigration policy Now the State Dept wants to create an "Office of Remigration" to oversee his inhumane mass deportation policies 1/7 www.wired.com/story/trump-...

⚠️ For those unfamiliar with the term “remigration,” it does not only mean deportation of undocumented immigrants but also the expulsion of non-white people to the country of their racial or ethnic ancestral origin without regard to their citizenship, legal status, or place of birth.

⚠️ Trump calls for “REMIGRATION.” I’ll post a thread below that explains remigration and where the term comes from (it’s white supremacists), along with a link to the @marisakabas.bsky.social scoop about the “Office of Remigration” that the administration is opening in the State Department. 1/
