A man with a green card said ICE agents arrested him in #Lynn, Mass then took him to a detention facility—but first made a detour to a cemetery, where they took him out of their vehicle and beat him. #mapoli #Massachusetts

A pregnant woman made to sleep on a concrete floor. A woman denied menstrual products and given an extra bottle of water to clean herself up with. These are just some of the conditions women in Burlington MA's ICE field office have been made to endure. www.wbur.org/news/2025/06... @wbur.org

Trump said he wanted a deal with Iran. I guess he couldn’t convince his good friend Netanyahu. No respect. Looks weak.

"To Mr. Cuomo, I've never had to resign in disgrace. I've never cut Medicaid. I have never stolen hundreds of millions of dollars from the MTA. I have never hounded the thirteen women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment. I have never sued for their gynecological records." - Zohran just now.

SCOOP — ICE employees received an email yesterday telling them the agency's warrantless arrest policy had been rescinded. It's likely part of the Trump administration's efforts to further loosen enforcement restrictions to meet the new quota of 3,000 immigration arrests per day. My report:

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

The danger of the kind of escalation spiral we are in is starting to show its full face in that it’s not just the federal government. the parallel rightwing system that has been set up within law-enforcement is absolutely a paramilitary fascist force that will use violence to back federal actions.

"why isn't ICE focusing on criminals?!" Having ICE focus on criminals for deportation was already the policy of the Biden Administration. That's the thing that was happening that Trump decried as "open borders." Trump promised to change that to "mass deportation now" and deport indiscriminately

Once again, DHS outright LIES to the American public, falsely claiming that people who entered the country LEGALLY are "illegal aliens." BY DEFINITION someone approved to fly here by the US government and who is authorized to enter and work legally is not an "illegal alien." It's a total lie.

Possible to start to tell a unified story: "Trump is personally too old, crazy, and confused to run things, so at any given time the question is which co-president is in charge. At first it was Musk, & we got the crazy chaotic DOGE era. Then Navarro: a trade war that crashed markets. Now Miller..."

People are in the streets because their futures are being looted from them and their families are being ripped apart. Trump is unpopular and is sinking fast. Look at these numbers. Our greatest weapon is solidarity. Stephen Miller presidency even more hated than Elon Musk Presidency.

NEW: The Trump administration said their research did not "enhance health, lengthen life, or reduce illness." Thousands of scientists disagreed. We heard from +150 researchers impacted by the NIH grant terminations on what is being lost in the cuts. 🧵👇 projects.propublica.org/nih-cuts-res...

The news of an Air India 787 crashing in Ahmedabad is awful. That’s a big plane prepared to fly a long distance with lots of passengers and lots of fuel. My thoughts are with all on board, and on the ground, as well as the families of the victims.

The New York Times headline writers now call groups like the AMA and the College of Physicians and Surgeons "pro-vaccine groups." They get more preposterous with each passing day.

Actual historians can give more detail, but one common obsession of fascists is their obsession w physical "fitness." Campaigns to encourage youth to exercise and shape themselves into some mythologized "strong" ideal. (This post brought to you by my excess research for my most recent novel)

Maybe they really were ICE officers. Or maybe they were a band of vigilantes, arbitrarily snatching brown-looking people off the street. All eyes are now on LA, but secret police are descending upon smaller towns nationwide too. Masked and armed, they refuse to show IDs or warrants. wapo.st/4kIGFke

There's a real attentional trap that all protest movements face and have faced for a long time. If you pull off protests that are polite and civil, even if large, they will struggle to get coverage. Reporters will dismiss them as not newsworthy.

This is a map of Los Angeles. The arrow points to a red dot. That red dot (roughly) represents the protest area seen on TV. To me, the gross mischaracterization of what’s happening in Los Angeles looks like an excuse to deploy the military—to protect government assets like ICE.
