Netanyahu has clearly taken lessons from Putin. I fear he will succed in manipulating Trump to give the go-ahead to drop GB-57 bunker busters on Iran's Fordo enrichment facility. Such an action could provoke a terrorist attack in the continental US, paving the way for a declaration of martial law.

We must conserve and restore forests because they are wonderful, full of life, support the lives and livelihoods of over a billion people, and play multiple vital roles in the maintenance of a liveable planet But to slow climate breakdown, we have to bring about the end of the fossil fuel age

Arguably even worse than handcuffing Alex Padilla was this claim by Kristi Noem. "We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city."

there’s got to be some kind of statute of limitations on this crap. I get moral hazard, I get all of that, it’s just completely insane to say that this guy who built an American life for 30 years isn’t American.

As @letsgomathias.bsky.social reported, "remigration" has been used by white supremacists as "a euphemism for ethnically cleansing non-white people from Western countries." The GOP is "sourcing many of its talking points and policy ideas directly from neo-fascists." www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

If Senator Alex Padilla was Senator Alan Patterson, I doubt he would have been manhandled as violently and inhumanly as he was by Trump's Stasi.

One aspect of Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" that isn't getting enough attention? It would give ICE tens of billions in additional funding to conduct more violent raids and abductions across the country. A big, ugly, authoritarian nightmare.

Bingo. If he were Senator Alan Patterson he would have been treated differently.

Watching Alex Padilla being forced to kneel and then be handcuffed by police of the Executive Branch, we should remember that there is a long history of violence against Mexicans in the West and elsewhere in the US, including lynching. daily.jstor.org/the-untold-h...

Sen. Alex Padilla: "If this is how this DHS responds to a senator with a question, I can only imagine what they're doing to farmers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country. We will hold this administration accountable."

Schumer is an old fool. He needs to step down as majority leader now and retire from the Senate at the end of his current term.

We look at the footage of Alex Padilla and are appalled by the transgression of norms, of law, of basic bodily respect. But tens of millions of others look at the same footage and see exactly what they voted for, the unhesitating exercise of power, power directed against black and brown.

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem. Right fucking now.

Trump is paying for people to fill seats at his parade Saturday. Not only is he demented, but his narcissism would be embarrassing if it weren't so destructive.

This is a real thing being posted and circulated by the Department of Homeland Security, referring to undocumented immigrants as “foreign invaders” and urging good Americans to turn them in. (I’ll leave it to BlueSky historians to find comparisons to WWII era materials.)
