As a lifelong student of human history in all its wicked & wonderful ways, I'm still not sure if I despise humanity or admire it. My main fight is against racism but I'm here to help rid the US of its deeply embedded fascism. DMs are blocked

It’s cruel to send Palestinians desperate for food into a death trap. And now, Trump wants to give the Netanyahu backed "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" $30 million. We should not send a single cent. We must stop the suffering in Gaza and fund real aid organizations.

Explains Stephen Miller's motivation to arrest 3,000 people a day... "Miller owns between $100,000 and $250,000 worth of stock in Palantir... that has a several lucrative contracts with ICE to track data and conduct surveillance on undocumented immigrants" By @rollingstone.com

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

He speaks for more than just New Yorkers. The whole country needs him right now bsky.app/profile/prem...

In Nashville, an undocumented woman who was detained by ICE while pregnant had a stillbirth after allegedly being denied medical care in ICE custody. “I had him inside here for three days, in this Louisiana facility, my baby dead in my stomach," Iris Dayana Monterroso-Lemus said.

The fact that our military was perfectly happy to use weapons abroad in violation of the War Powers Act doesn't bode well for us when they are asked to use weapons at home in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.

no accidents

wtf are these outfits? and is that a pink flamingo button down shirt?

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

Update

Why did folks stop talking about grocery prices? I just left the store and OMFG…

In a stunning moment, ICE agents have been denied entry into Dodger Stadium, while protesters chant "ICE out of LA!" This is incredible!

I really hope you idiots are right and there is a God so that when you die he can ask you what in the fuck did you do to the beautiful fucking world I gave you

an easy disguise: all you’d need are some black masks

It's getting more and more obvious that they cheated. Our decrepit, racist, corrupt system managed to install the Mafia - it's time to burn down the mission bsky.app/profile/lind...

Here's my video from the African warehouse with millions of doses of medicine -- gathering dust and approaching expiration because Trump/Musk/Rubio dismantled USAID. Infuriating. www.nytimes.com/video/opinio...

We’re #1!!!

ICE's increasingly aggressive tactics are unacceptable and dangerous. They do not make us any safer. I’m calling for an independent investigation right now — this abuse of power must end.

I don't know about you...but I'm disturbed by the amount of hell NOT being raised by leadership about masked individuals jumping out of unmarked vans, refusing to identify themselves...and just shoving people into a Goddamn vehicle and whisking them away.

Abolishing ICE remains as important as ever. Not only that—it is an obvious litmus test for anyone seeking political office. You can’t proclaim to fight Trumpist extremism and dodge its most visible, horrifying manifestation, writes @jackmirkinson.bsky.social.

It was always a crystal clear 100% certainty that if the orange convicted felon was sent back into the White House instead of being sent to prison that he would bring the United States into war, economic collapse and total chaos. This is on everyone who voted for him.

Hard to argue with that.

Karen Bass: "It's felt in LA like we're part of a grand experiment. How far will the public tolerate the federal government intervening and seizing power from a governor? I think it's being tried out here."

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

I need to know wtf is up with Tucker Carlson? Is he leaving a sinking ship or am I being too hopeful? More likely he's just mad at Cruz or maybe he was promised something that has not been delivered bsky.app/profile/lain...

ENOUGH! GODDAMMIT! We are being attacked in our streets by masked men with huge fucking guns.What governor will call in the national guard and arrest these thugs? This is just a bunch of Proud Boys grabbing whoever they want. bsky.app/profile/cweb...

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"

Schrödinger's felony.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Elon Musk and DOGE are sabotaging our Social Security system. They're spreading lies. They're pushing out thousands of dedicated staffers. They're falsely declaring people dead. They're accessing our private data. And even with Musk officially out, DOGE is still running the show. (Gift Link)

There's no way to know if it's armed Proud Boys, a gang of White Christian Nationalists or even a gang on their way to a heist. ICE are acting illegally. While they seem to have immunity from federal prosecution, I still think a governor could arrest them. bsky.app/profile/your...

Melissa Hortman was more than just a Minnesota lawmaker. She was a kind and decent woman who trained service dogs for American veterans.

ICE raiding a crowded supermarket in Rosemead, California with no identification, indistinguishable from cartel hitmen, pulling high caliber rifles on unarmed US citizens trying to ask questions about wtf is going on. #3E #StopICE

We are gaining voices.

Update

Hmmmm . . . I wonder how the Minnesota assassin might have had access to a police uniform, a police badge, and a police cruiser. Are we *sure* he was "impersonating" a police officer?
