When ICE agents look like this, it is ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for state and local law enforcement to step in and demand they identify themselves and show judicial warrants before detaining anyone from an immigration court. Democratic mayor and governors can take action on this.

Skrmetti was a 6–3 decision—but the majority also split in half, with 3 justices angling to go further in eradicating constitutional protections for transgender people. To hold everyone together, Roberts resorted to incoherent sophistry. With @dahlialithwick.bsky.social: slate.com/news-and-pol...

If you live in the United States, you are in greater jeopardy today than you were 6 months ago. So is your family. So are your friends & neighbors. Virtually all the important parts of the U.S. government created to protect us are being shut down, gutted, or marginalized. — @djrothkopf.bsky.social

Democrats need to get up to speed on crypto and understand it as nothing less than a threat to the rule of law, and nation states themselves. There is no 'political compromise' to be had here. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/o...

Old trees sequester more carbon. This paper clearly refutes the US Forest Service's unscientific insistance about the need to keep cutting old growth trees. They lie about it so they can use your taxdollars to cut your trees on your publiclands. 🧪🧪🧪 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

So I just want to be clear that the gentile President's anti-immigrant goons illegally assaulted and kidnapped the leading Jewish candidate for Mayor in New York City for walking into a federal building for the crowd that is keeping track of The Antisemitism Problem

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

Pretty funny to watch "antiwar" Trump suddenly decide that warmaking looks totally awesome on TV and gravitate toward war with Iran literally on that basis

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant. This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.

Yet another elected Democratic official violently arrested and detained by Trump’s ICE Gestapo. This isn’t frog in boiling water. This fascism is happening quickly, clearly, brazenly.

Everyone in the chain of command who allowed this — from the platoon leaders to the 18th Airborne Corps commander — needs to be reprimanded if not relieved. We don't ask soldiers their political allegiance and we don't assign them tasks based on political allegiance.

Trump's new focus on "remigration"—an idea borrowed from the European ultra-right that means forcing non-white people, even legal citizens, out of the country—portends something sinister. I discuss with @gregsargent.bsky.social on the Daily Blast podcast: newrepublic.com/article/1968...

Perhaps this is because we as a society dismissed sending bomb threats to children's hospitals who offer care for trans youth as normal and we excused decades of anti-abortion violence as just the cost of doing business as usual in American politics. www.startribune.com/suspect-show...

The gunman no doubt thought of himself as a good person, as someone who was pro-life, but his ideology brought him to a place where he shot 17 bullets into a couple who got into politics to help get health insurance for his daughter, who has spina bifida.

This is continued journalistic malpractice from the @startribune.com normalizing a violent white male suspect. He owned a private security company called Praetorian Guard, traveled overseas to preach against abortion and LGBTQ+ people, and attended a bible college that preaches "violent prayer."
