You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

the trump movement has inculcated a genuinely rotten contempt for life in our collective political life and the real challenge will be extirpating it in favor of life-affirming solidarity youtu.be/Em6hb2Mg0XA?...

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence. It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process. This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

That officer took deliberate aim at this journalist and shot her. There's nobody standing near her.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

The people who said we should abolish ICE were right. The people who said we should defund the police, were right. The righteous are always cursed with being too early.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social @jbf1755.bsky.social‬ Speaking of super excellent, factual, fun US history videos, you might mention in a future Substack post Joanne Freeman's AWESOME free Yale course (HIST 116) on YouTube: "The American Revolution" (25 lectures; 40-50 minutes/lecture) shorturl.at/YKBMo

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

archive.ph/f9dbTTrump is possible going to declare that the Insurrection Act gives him the power to nationalize the Guard and circumvent Newsom's authority. Another possibility is to send in Guard members from another state. FL troops have already been deployed in TX, for ex.
