Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani calls for abolishing ICE and praises AOC (who just endorsed him) for helping leading the charge to abolish ICE. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfcv...

All I want right now is for someone to pick up a guitar sometime this week and write at least three simple, memorable, and musically pleasing songs which thousands of people at a time can sing together in unison while marching against fascism this summer

Protesters Urged Not To Give Trump Administration Pretext For What It Already Doing

Moving from deporting violent criminals ➡️ deporting anyone without legal status ➡️ deporting people with legal status ➡️ banning immigration from "third world" countries and banning "third world workers" "who have ruined our country" ➡️ to paying "non-Europeans citizens to repatriate."

Bondi's idea of probable cause for 18 USC 11 charge now includes 1) walking back forth and yelling 2) typing text into a digital device while present at a protest 3) suspicion of receiving "communications from others coordinating a protest"

Pay attention, people. I know things have been looking pretty treacherous for quite some time, but they continue to escalate. Bringing out the National Guard against a few hundred protesters? Celebrations of many sports championships cause far more damage.

The last time National Guard troops were deployed to a state over a governor’s objection was to deal with racists. This time it’s on behalf of them.

LAPD retreated. Federal police took their place. People are sitting peacefully.

More Americans live in LA than live in Mike Johnson's entire state.

Arresting California union leader David Huerta may have awakened a sleeping giant in the fight against ICE www.latimes.com/california/s...

"[U]nchecked ICE expansion will amount to the single greatest threat to civic life as we know it that this Presidency can--and, if permitted, will--inflict."

Alex Jones spent the last 30 years being like "MARTIAL LAW IS COMIN BECAUSE THE DEEP STATE JADE HELM ILLUMINATIIII" and now it's here and his place could not be more in favor of it.

Solidarity to comrades in LA. It's really heartening to see so many people telling ICE to gtfo. We are many, they are few.

lmao The Sun has a livestream of the “LA riots” on YouTube and when you click on it it’s a bunch of troops standing around doing nothing you can literally hear birds singing in the background what a time to be alive

Seeing a massive divide online between Angelenos of all political stripes who understand that the protests in LA yesterday were mostly peaceful and any violence was ICE-initiated and East Coast establishment liberals lecturing “the left” on how riots just amplify right wing talking points.

When the LA police says you are overreaching, you are overreaching.

We have known since well before November that 2nd-term Trump would use aggressive immigration enforcement to incite domestic unrest which he could use as a pretext to invoke the Insurrection Act and send troops into in blue cities. The question has always been what we would do with this information

mass protest is not the right way to oppose fascism. the right way to oppose fascism is to shake your head and say “no thank you” whenever a fascist offers you some fascism

"this isn't what I voted for"

Bondi DOJ has a problem. On left: DOJ Indictment and Detention Memo allege Abrego Garcia lied to officer by not revealing he was coming from Texas On right: DHS Referral Report: "Subject stated he was driving 'three days ago' (11/27/2022) from Houston, TX to Temple Hills, MD (via St Louis, MO)"

Today's required reading: DHS expert @jennbudd.bsky.social takes on one of the most challenging questions of our current moment for people of conscience who see what this is and where it is going substack.com/home/post/p-...

BREAKING The President of California’s largest union has been detained during an ICE raid.

A magistrate judge in Columbus, GA, has ordered discovery regarding the US-El Salvador detention deals for yet another Venezuelan sent to CECOT on 3/15. It's Jose Bastidas, who has no criminal record, per his atty. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...
