Awful: News orgs are credulously amplifying the ugly idea that sending troops into LA is good politics for Trump. This gives his lawless abuses of power the aura of conventional politics, obscuring how extraordinary and dangerous this moment truly is. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1966...

I was hanging up Know Your Rights posters in the neighborhood and had a nice chat w/a guy also flyering (for something else). He hadn't heard that ICE was taking people off the streets without warrants. Talk to your neighbors, if you can. A lot of people don't know what's going on!

The protest organizers for these no king rallies really need to distance themselves from the resist liberals or they are going to run the risk that the resist liberal propaganda outlets co-op their rallies and turn off the broad appeal needed and destroy the movement.

We may disagree on many things, but I hope we can come together, stop calling it "I.C.E.," and start calling it "The Goon Squad." Please

Oh man, this is nuts reporting. “Federal agents came to suspect that Bukele…had diverted U.S. aid funds to the gang as part of the alleged deal to provide it with money and power in exchange for votes…”

Even technically it's blatantly illegal and unconstitutional - there is no doubt.

Everyone I knew who covered disinformation got laid off, their bosses got bullied into firing them, or they changed their beats from actual Nazi harassment campaigns. It cannot be stressed the damage the paid-for Substack “free speech” guys did in the service of fascism and against real free speech.

an incomplete list of things I have had to force onto a crying toddler: - antibiotics - bedtime - shoes - toast that had been cut into triangles rather than squares - a banana that had snapped in half and she didn't want a *new* banana, she wanted me to fix *this* banana

In case anyone is wondering about the ICE "mini tanks" that have been mentioned in the stories about "tactical units" coming to Chicago & elsewhere, this is what they look like

I wish you could smell this, if jasmine blossoms are something you enjoy. Right out our back door and it'll be sweet until the end of July, maybe into August

"likely to draw an uproar from pro-vaccine groups" like the opponents are a tiny special interest group and not "literally all doctors and 95% of parents"

The attacks on the civilian population of LA are becoming more violent and more overtly authoritarian, and brutal. These are the tactics of a paramilitary terror force nothing else. These are rightwing death squads in the making. America is under attack by fascist governmental forces
