They’re ramping up the violence and it’s only a matter of time before they kill a bystander.

The speed in which we have decayed into an open oligarchic kleptocracy is astounding

I loathe Musk as much as anyone else but for a sitting president to openly threaten a private citizen over what political donations he or she chooses to make is a reminder of how authoritarian this country is becoming by the day - by the hour even!

The Trump administration would love to use war-style brutality and violence to attack all protestors. About 35% of the country would cheer it. Remind me why I should feel any community, any common humanity, any need to connect with those people.

My advice to Democrats would be to stop letting Republicans set the terms of debate, start making it clear you’re acting on principles instead of polls, and fire Rahm Emmanuel into the sun.

Bernie, you rascal! You’re spot on here.

Good morning rebels...

🧵What Musk is experiencing now, along with many of his billionaire friends, is something they forsook respect, decency, and public opinion to avoid. It didn't matter. It won't save them. It never does in an autocracy. 1/8

Judge says Trump administration can dismantle the Institute of Museum and Library Services ground.news/article/judg...

Appeals court rules that the president can punish a news outlet based on the content of its coverage by denying it access that it has had for generations. If the decision stands, it represents a major blow to press freedom @zjmontague.bsky.social @minhokim.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/06/06/u...

It is so shameful what Hong Kong is doing to its citizens who dare to engage in basic political activism — even ones who are already suffering behind bars.

ha ha fuck you TODD

Trump's hand-picked Supreme Court has given him the Fort Knox of Americans’ most personal and private information. This reckless decision leaves millions of seniors exposed if and when this information falls into the wrong hands, inside or outside of our government.

This is so jarringly unAmerican that I sort of hope it wakes some normies up. It is occurring in a context where military-style equipment is being used to enforce immigration roundups and conveys the notion that we are increasingly living in a police state.

Call for a general strike. give us a rally point and grind this shit to a halt. 750,000 is a strong start.

And thanks to a generation of reactionary centrists, feckless Dems, autocratic GOPers, and a TV culture of non-stop crime shows and bleeds-it-leads news, we spent TWENTY-FIVE YEARS of declining and low crime rates building out that police-state style police system at EVERY level of government.

Supreme Court lets incompetent, teenage racists who submit to a ketamine-addicted billionaire white supremacist gobble up all our data to be shared with companies like Palantir and others. Awesome.

LAPD firing impact munitions at Los Angelenos while DHS arrests their neighbors.

There's a person on Twitter who for years ended every single tweet, easily thousands of them, with "Moreover, lCE must be abolished" and I've never seen someone so vindicated in their commitment

You may not be in a position to fight the American Gestapo but you can take video of them, wave your middle finger at them, and show that Americans will not meekly surrender to them.

Two weeks ago, Ben Schrader - the highly respected chief of the criminal division for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Nashville - announced he had resigned. According to LinkedIn data, that was May 21 - the same day as Abrego Garcia's indictment. 1/2

if you’ve ever wondered “who tf would invite a vampire into their home” please allow me to introduce you to

West Virginia is warning that women who have a miscarriage could be charged with a crime unless they contact local police. Every woman in WV should call 911 every time they have a period. Gum up the system with malicious compliance. www.cnn.com/2025/06/06/h...

So to review: 1. He never should have been deported. The admin admitted that. 2. The admin said he was an MS-13 member and also they couldn’t get him back. They lied. 3. They are now charging him with a crime that they did not mention until literally now.

Clearly it was a terrible idea to impose pressure on the White House on this matter, look at all the nothing it did, @mattyglesias.bsky.social was so right

“After the 2020 election and January 6, a lot of people were convinced Donald Trump was toast. A lot of folks said "Look forward, not backward," and he was never held accountable. Let's not make that mistake with Elon.” - @teslatakedown.com This is our moment, folks. Time to make history.

This story is wild: Rather than just comply with court orders; the Trump admin has ICE offices and detainees living in a shipping container in Djibouti unde threat of rocket attacks wapo.st/4kPIACX

Let’s not forget that earlier today, this day was known as “we cannot build bananas in America” day. That is, until everything went bananas

It was a frantic day for Chicagoans yesterday as ICE operations in the city escalated. Agents abducted a longtime organizer at an ICE check-in site, and separated families inside immigration court. City council members and activists tried to halt the vans. CPD was there:

Be suspicious of anyone who tells you this is just a distraction. The best chance we have for survival might be for these two lunatics to self-destruct so spectacularly they cease to function and can’t do any evil shit until the midterms.

I’ve been saying to be wary of those who are trying to downplay what our community experienced at Lake and Bloomington. Please save all the documentation so people are held accountable. From ICE in our community, to MPD assisting with crowd control with a side of police brutality.

It's understandable to focus on what Musk might lose now that he has gone to war against Trump. But never forget just how much he *got* from his time in DC www.platformer.news/musk-trump-f...

SCOOP: A deputy U.S. marshal was mistakenly detained by immigration agents inside the federal building that houses Tucson's immigration court, U.S. Marshals Service officials confirmed on Thursday. @tucson.com tucson.com/news/local/b...

Part of their delusion here is they're getting yelled at for not being leftist enough or that only leftists are mad at them. Meanwhile, all the polling evidence shows that's not true at all: they are despised across the spectrum and all their pretensions of appealing to the center *aren't working.*

It took just 15 years to get from Citizens United to this
