It’s been pointed out to me that the purpose of protest at this point is NOT to lobby our representatives, but to call our neighbors to action.

If you're a Dem and not standing up for your own citizens and constituents who are being kidnapped and disappeared to foreign prisons... You're on the enemy list, and you're not going to be in office much longer. You've been fucking warned.

I want to make something clear: my ongoing criticism of the Democrats isn’t meant to be defeatist. It’s meant to light a fire under our collective butts and demand more from our so-called leaders. Those of us in marginalized communities cannot wait for 2026. The very notion is privilege […]

This administration illegally denied hundreds of people due process, then deported them to a country they’ve never known, run by an authoritarian infamous for cruel treatment of prisoners. They then deceived a federal judge to buy time for the planes to land so he couldn’t do anything about it.

I assume a lot of these stories are not by design — not “hey go pursue the LPR-applicants married to Americans” — but just ICE going after the easiest things they can — whoever comes to their attention — without caring about actual dangerousness or priorities.

Nayib Bukele just said that 238 people he claimed were members of TdA arrived in El Salvador TODAY. This may mean that DHS did NOT adhere to Judge Boasberg's order that planes in the air be turned back. If so, it would be--by far--the biggest act of defiance against a judge's order.

This is probably a dumb question, because I’m not the most politically savvy person. And I’m sure the answer is some variation on “because the Dems are a bunch of feckless cowards who couldn’t successfully organize a bake sale.” But… why hasn’t anyone even TRIED to impeach Trump? At the very […]

I expected Jeanne Shaheen to be on the wrong side of history, especially since she announced her retirement.

Re: Trump speech... Via ‪Sherrilyn Ifill: Just came for CREW: “Norm Eisen has been after me for 9 years and CREW is a charitable organization!…they’re scum.” Nauseating & unconscionable. Ok this is sounding like Trump getting distressed about judges ruling against the Administration in […]

Via Jeff Sharlet: #Trump: “we’re ending migrant occupation of America we’re liberating our cities.” Claims world leaders call to say he has liberated the world. Says they say there’s a light over America. Says his election was more important than 1776. This is Christian nationalism.
