AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

"These armed bounty hunters stormed a family's home in Huntington Beach no warrant, no ID, weapons drawn on kids. Do you recognize them? Help us identify them.

ICE Issues $100 Million In Illegal Contracts To Detain People

The ICE "agents" aren't agents. They're bounty hunters who've been deputized. That's why they don't wear uniforms and or provide ID. They get paid $1k-$2k per person. This is state-sanctioned. human trafficking and kidnapping.

So making America great again means crashing the market, blowing up trade, destroying domestic air travel, eradicating foreign aid, blowing up spaceships, erasing our history, painting everything gold, humiliating the military, and raiding farms, schools and baseball stadiums.

ICE agents are facing a 413% increase in violence against them. Imagine being the devil incarnate and people not liking you.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

Juneteenth is the perfect moment to remind everyone of two facts: 1. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it. Read this out loud. Read it again. Then teach it to your kids.

ICE is largely not ICE - They are bounty-hunters. Early in January the administration started contacting bounty-hunters offering them $1000-$1500 per immigrant. I think what we keep seeing is likely a mix of bounty-hunters and militia. It would explain outfits, masks, aggression, no badges

"THE END OF OUR CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC AS WE KNOW IT COULD BE HAPPENING NOW"

See this for what it is. An authoritarian regime and its secret police are targeting political enemies and marginalized people they have vilified and dehumanized. We're in it, folks. Deep, deep in it. Fascism. Stop dancing around it. Stop playing games. Give up all remaining denial. We're in it.

No one with a shred of civic consciousness could accept anything but the abolishment of ICE

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

Thou shalt expel Mike Lee from the Senate and banish him from society, for he mocked and celebrated the murder of a political opponent.

Police in the US are the enemy of the people. Always. They're never there to help. Take any situation and add police. That situation is immediately less safe due to their presence.

Challenge me, I dare ya

Today marks nine years since Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right extremist, a terrible loss to those who knew and loved her and to politics. Zero lessons were learned though and the far-right continues to be pandered to. With more political assassinations in the US it all feels too familiar.

Birds of a feather always flock together

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

The right wing claims that: 1. Both Trump assassination attempts were done by the left 2. The Minnesota assassin is a member of the left On both LIES we must push back HARD. Because the TRUTH IS: 1. Both Trump assassins were Trump voters 2. The Minnesota assassin is a right wing extremist
