So some people *are* above the law, apparently. Democracy can’t co-exist with oligarchy… I gotta meditate more. Dogs rule, ya know they do!🐾

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to *be* law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

They’re not behaving as if they’re in a four-year term. They’re behaving as if they’re in an everlasting dictatorship. Are we all clear on this?

Timely reminder that the treatment for chemical weapons like tear gas and pepper spray is: 1) remove from active contamination (get them out of the cloud of teargas, remove outer layers of clothing if possible) 2) flush eyes with ONLY clean water. Wash skin and hair with water and soap.

Just a reminder that Trump's disgusting budget includes a massive increase in funding for ICE. thecause.substack.com/p/trump-want...

So just remember if you ever encounter an LRAD or other directional sound weapon, move perpendicular to the direction of the beam. You know just in case it comes up.

If you do get teargassed, BAG YOUR CLOTHES. Wash them as soon as you can, or throw them out.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

What the fuck is the point of paying money to a police department if they won’t protect people from hostile masked kidnappers?

The LA protests will trigger a drumbeat of "law and order" messaging from the White House and their media allies as a prelude to invoking the Insurrection Act. This is entirely predictable, and any Dem or media outlet that facilitates this narrative will be aiding Trump's authoritarian project.

If confirmed, this would represent a version of Charlottesville, but where government officials are the ones driving into protestors

VETERAN: “This is why they can’t wear masks. Because people like this exist… if you want to snatch people off the streets, do it in uniform, and show your damn face.” (@MarshaBlackburn’s Secret Police bill criminalizes transparency and threatens 5 years for naming an ICE agent)

Awww you guys - the Acting Director of ICE is really upset that we keep accurately refering them the American Gestapo and calling out their kidnappings. Keep up the good work everyone!!!

ICE agents or bounty hunters? A raid at Home Depot on Wilshire in Los Angeles earlier today. What’s disturbing is that they’re wearing masks and vests you could buy on Amazon. They’re in unmarked cars, and I don’t see any IDs on the officers — regular SUVs with standard plates.

The Chief of the Criminal Division at the US Attorney’s Office/Middle District of Tennessee RESIGNED the same day the Acting US Attorney signed the indictment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. He writes: “do the right thing, in the right way, for the right reasons.” There are no coincidences.

This hideous bill Republicans are trying to push through isn’t just about healthcare and food access. It has tons of hidden life altering changes for all of us…

Not a single tweet in defense of Trump from JD Vance after Elon called for Trump to be impeached and for Vance to take over. Pretty telling...

Remember when Republicans were losing their minds about leaving Afghans who worked with US troops to be killed by the Taliban? Well, Trump has revoked their asylum and is planning to send them back to be murdered.

The Florida Bar has filed misconduct charges against Attorney General Pam Bondi. She has been in violation of multiple ethics rules since being sworn in.

My impression is that a real currency wouldn't tank when two jerks are having a slap fight

This is f*cked up! Stories of ICE luring immigrants to hearings just to arrest them keep coming—now they’re going after kids. Martir Garcia Lara, a fourth grader from Southern California, went to a hearing in Houston with his dad. Instead of an update, they were both detained and separated by ICE.

I am so glad "why tariff banana" thought is reaching members of Congress. It's the most obvious example of how insane this administration's trade policy has been—officials like Lutnick can't give a good justification for it because there simply isn't one

The national security and cybersecurity impacts of this Trump-Musk fallout are out of this world. Musk and the DOGE boys have their tentacles all up in just about every system that supports US government function…

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

On top of the Epstein files, Musk is also taking credit for Trump's election win. Musk knows exactly how the election was manipulated. Load him up on ketamine and get him talking.

It would be a real shame if someone told Trump how Secretary Lutnick is currently rewriting BEAD rules to wire $10+ billion in contracts to Elon and Starlink to provide worse internet for rural America…

When the worst person you know gets bitten by a snake, you don’t try to befriend the snake. You observe said biting from a considerable distance and enjoy the schadenfreude.

Do Republicans really think people will buy this nonsense? They're at the point of believing their own lies to justify the cruelty.

"It is the largest scale Robin Hood in reverse legislation in my adult lifetime—maybe modern American history." @neeratanden.bsky.social on Trump's big ugly bill.

I wrote about the 23-year-old crypto bro with effectively no relevant work experience, who @alondra.bsky.social revealed is sitting in meetings, not paying attention, and then giving the thumbs up/thumbs down on whether they can get their NSF grants...

(Reuters) - Staff of the Federal Emergency Management Agency were left baffled on Monday after the head of the U.S. disaster agency said during a briefing that he had not been aware the country has a hurricane season, according to four sources .. @reuters.com www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

These people are just wrong about literally everything.

Pay attention to this one… They’re all in it together, and they already have our personal data— to build a massive database to track every single one of us. But tell me again that TikTok is the security risk we should be worried about!

WTF. This is the most sensitive, classified information and they want a Fox News anchor/producer to have access to it? Good luck having anyone share intel info with us. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

wild that we sent a huge number of guys to Iraq at the start of that war without rifle plates and now this is just how cops dress to frighten kitchen employees

The entire point.

Trump is taking the briefing less than once a week. They are considering a video format that looks like Fox News. I’m not kidding: www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

Why is this not front-page news? Where is the outrage and alarm?

Americans are losing an array of people and programs dedicated to keeping them healthy.

They really don't want Americans to do science anymore

📌Our damn media needs to stop treating this Trump-Musk alleged breakup like some game. These slobbery ghouls are battering the lives of innocent people. 📌And if you're collecting social security (or hope to) you might want to read what a high-ranking official in SSA said is going on right now ...

Where are all the One World Government prophecy freaks and why aren’t they freaking out about Palantir compiling a master list of our data?

"Well, we are all going to die." --Senator Joni Ernst That has to be the glibbest way any politician has ever told a constituent that they didn’t give a shit about them.

Rubio announces the US will "aggressively revoke" the visas of Chinese students. More racism from the Trump Administration because Trump is embarrassed China won't bend the knee on his tariffs so he's punishing Chinese students. youtu.be/T2qKdYtlCfc?...

I’m old enough to remember when Republicans said, “We want immigrants to come, we just want them to do it the right way.”
