I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

Fun to open up Bluesky to see all the conspiracy theories about federal agents and immigration task forces not being police at all but some randos pardoned for Jan 6th. Folks, take the federal agents off the pedestal you have placed them on. Federal cops are not ethical people.

Follow up to my post about the Boulder attack. Read this and realize that this all related. Every fault line in America is being ripped open, agitated, and exploited right now. Yes, it was antisemitism. Next week it will be racism, Islamophobia, homophobia, eco-terror, or some other festering wound.

Remember when this pic of Elián González was a national scandal instead of a daily occurrence?

PX Rangers lead the way. In all seriousness, their uniforms and equipment are an intimidation tactic. They know most Americans don’t see it everyday. That said, they also just enjoy the shock value of looking like scary operators to a bunch people on a plane.

Somewhere in America, Merrick Garland is reciting his well-rehearsed line about how unimpeachable process is the cornerstone of a successful prosecution.

The same VA that saved my life is now cutting veterans off from care. Whistleblowers at Northport asked me to speak up. I did. onoffense.substack.com/p/veterans-c...

MAGA is an op and all the so called “influencers” that propagate it are propagandists and operatives. They aren’t entertainment or practicing free speech, they are carrying out an attack.

Wonder what happens when someone's daughter is taken away by "POLICE" in masks, who turn out NOT to be law enforcement at all. Parents, no one will know. They say they "don't need to identify themselves" while they take your loved ones away.

Phang: It says, “Both major candidates have vowed to pursue a constitutional amendment to curtail the power of the president. The most decisive factor influencing voter sentiment appears to be the issues of martial law and impeachment.” So why the hell are we not doing the same damn thing here?

Even though America’s infrastructure is crumbling beneath our feet, Trump paused funding for the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act on Day One of his administration. Now, incredibly, he’s slapping his name on signs for jobs funded before his freeze and taking credit for progress... 1/2

Trump is handing a massive contract to Palantir, Peter Thiel’s AI-powered spy firm to build a centralized database on all Americans, combining facial recognition, license plate tracking, ICE targeting, biometric data, and whatever else they damn well want. www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

Inclined to agree. They lied about project 2025 but were pretty up front with the fascism. It was never about egg prices. Pretending it was or engaging in the egg-price debates only lets them off the hook. The cruelty was the main event of every one of his rallies.

Exactly this. Writing any of this off all of this as insanity and delusion misses the point. It is cool, ruthless, and cunning. It is done with intent and understanding of its deleterious impacts on society. It is a shaping action that advances the consolidation of power.

He’s not delusional. The point is to attack objective reality. In isolation, this sounds insane. In chorus with a tidal wave of bullshit, even resistors will lose track of what or who they can trust. Preempts organization, deflates the will to resist, and severs us from our institutions.

Everyone looking for blame in the Boulder incident today. The man obviously suffered a psychotic break. No one will ask or care why it happened. I tend to see people like him less as outliers and more as early warnings: the first kernels of the batch to pop. This is what destabilization looks like.

Conspiracy theories are used to protect the actual conspirators by redirecting the public’s wrath and inoculating it from the accusation. We aren’t hearing about it because those behind the RW campaigns stopped producing content. See also: election denial, FEMA camps, & brain chips.
