We have been primed to allow this to happen by the way our communities have been policed for decades. The only way to stop this is to organize community groups to patrol the area specifically looking for these goons and stop them.

Trump is already grabbing people off the street and disappearing them to prison camps in El Salvador and this is only month 2 of the regime. If these people are allowed to stay in power where do you think we're going to be at when month 48 hits? Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

the 99-0 vote to confirm Rubio was easily the biggest sign that most Dems still have no idea what they're dealing with I'm sure it's hard to believe that the genial guy you shared Senate lunches with is a world-historic monster - but they must recognize that there are no more Good Republicans

And it’s mostly pointless because the thing they are talking about almost certainly falls under a broad national security exception to FOIA. But there are many, many things that they are surely using these chats for that do not.

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

how you respond to the illegal kidnapping of a lawful permanent resident is a pretty good litmus test for your politics and principles. do they extend to someone you view as in the out-group? do you actually believe in the whole "disagree with you but will defend your right to speak?"

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is. They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there. They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

The actual trajectory of Democratic opposition to Trump since 2016 is that Democrats first engaged in #resistance and cultural progressivism, won the House in 2018, defeated Trump and won a trifecta the year of the George Floyd protests, tacked right under Biden, and lost in 2024.
