Attention: Miami-Dade Residents

And thanks to a generation of reactionary centrists, feckless Dems, autocratic GOPers, and a TV culture of non-stop crime shows and bleeds-it-leads news, we spent TWENTY-FIVE YEARS of declining and low crime rates building out that police-state style police system at EVERY level of government.

Here's the most damning direct evidence against Kilmar Abrego Garcia (from detention memo): His alleged lies when he was stopped in 2022. BUT storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Please note that of all the shit they claimed he did, and they claimed a LOT of bullshit, they're not charging him with any of it.

We have paid 15% of our income* for our entire fucking lives. Please go fuck yourself. * I know half technically comes from the employer but if they weren’t paying it we would make more money

This might be the most chilling use of 'abattoir' that I've seen in quite some time

Yes, you too, can be arrested and deported for no reason whatsoever.

@katiegoldin.bsky.social Listening to last week’s rerun not only delights me in its creatureliness, but reminds me how much I miss Anna Hossnieh’s voice.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.
