One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

With time, they will absolutely have more than that. But right now they are enormously vulnerable and they’re really hoping no one notices—if they’re even aware of it, which they may not be because they’re likely in that much of a bubble

They want you to be ok with this shit. That's why they keep talking about "toxic empathy," the "sin of empathy." They want you to silence your own basic human morality and replace it with their violent, racist, cult ideology.

Steven Miller’s new theory, that a "saboteur," "Democrat" DOJ atty invented the idea that Abrego Garcia was mistakenly removed to CECOT—is false. The error was admitted, on 3/31, by Robert Cerna, an ICE acting field office director: 1/3 storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Great work by the Harvard community pushing the admin to finally think about fighting back. "The university will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights. Neither Harvard nor any other private university can allow itself to be taken over by the federal government."

There's so much to be mad about but nothing has caused my blood to absolutely boil more than watching two so-called "world leaders" lie that an innocent good father and husband and hard-working union apprentice is a "terrorist." I hope these monsters burn in hell

I was recently asked if I needed to update anything from this triage list I proposed two weeks after the election for how to best protect non-citizens through what we knew was coming. Honestly, not really. It's all been pretty much as expected, if a little faster. A few notes though:

So I’ve mostly ignored this person, because obviously you wanna get on this app and say that matty et al are persecuted, you clearly have a humiliation thing going, and I don’t need to participate in that. But I do want to say something about this.

Well, at Rutgers we actually went on strike. Like picket lines and yelling and not going to work and getting a bunch of concessions from administration, so I guess your mileage varies based on where you are.

this is like saying “neighborhoods shouldn’t be peaceful and fun. they all need a group of agitators who periodically break into everyone’s homes and say the stupidest fucking things because they have the right to say them. we would all have better neighborhoods if they were allowed to do that.”

"the state can just summarily imprison someone without filing charges or holding a trial" doesn't just overturn democracy it overturns 1000 years of common law, like throwing out the entire legal system entirely and saying all people in America are the state's property.

Many law firms have discovered two new kinds of pro bono: (1) Pro Bono-parte: pledging millions for the strongman. (2) Pro Bono-no: refusing to lift a finger against authoritarianism. If you’re not opposing autocracy, you’re enabling it. www.npr.org/2025/04/13/g...

I make a lot of edgy posts about what will happen after the revolution but the thing is this: we tried living with the fascists after the Second World War and look where we are. We need a better idea. Even if it doesn’t satisfy my lust for retributive oppression and revenge, we need a better idea.

White supremacy and capitalism have such a strong hold on American politics because they managed to implement a system that guarantees them a win no matter which one of the two options you vote for. The majority of US citizens will never have a voice unless they dismantle this duopoly.

Said this in a reply & seems useful to pull up: This is a global liquidity crisis & Trump's volatility is the core of the crisis. The stock market will continue to have turbulent swings up & swings down. I can't say how it will be resolved because no one knows & anyone who pretends to know is lying

No, we cannot switch to domestically-grown tea. Thank you to the few well-meaning few folks who have suggested we avoid 54% Chinese import tariffs by sourcing US-grown tea instead. 1️⃣ Commodity-volume tea of the variety and complexity of heritage growing regions simply does not exist here.

They’re trying to throw out 60k votes in my state, which has ID requirements now and kneecapped early voting, because people had the audacity to vote for a Democratic judge. Some people definitely couldn’t be bothered to vote, I’m pretty sure I know some of them. But some also simply couldn’t.
