The Southlander's (@thesouthlander.com) most recent newsletter refers to what is happening on our streets as the "ICE terror", because that's what it is -- state terror. thesouthlander.com/ice-terror/

This is my congressman and we like him a lot. Follow @maxwellfrost.bsky.social

This fucking rocks, let’s fucking go

I’m loving this guy. These are the people the Democrats need but of course they won’t

Excited to see that black people performing country music are only eligible for 3/5ths of a Grammy

It's not self defense when you're a nuclear armed military power with a superpower benefactor and you're shooting first, hope this helps

Gnomes not Noem.

Off the top rope

Says the guy who cut off House Impeachment Managers' attempt to put on witnesses at Trump's Senate trial (following his second impeachment related to January 6) because he wanted to get home for Valentine's Day.

All US media will describe Israel's declaration of war as "preemptive" and Iran's response as "unprovoked."

Holy crap. And here in the US there's not a single competant cabinet member who can handle such an event. Is there anyone in the Trump regime who could actually not make this worse?

they can't even lie correctly or coherently

Was Bibi about to get investigated again?

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

What the fuck is Netanyahu’s end game? Seriously, the dude got his boy in office, does he think he can take on all of the Middle East now?

I don’t think all the people sliming around this website whining about how protests are useless and don’t do anything are *actually* MAGA feds, but they are doing the same thing a MAGA fed would do and are thus functionally indistinguishable

Oh irrational bombings? Guess I will go play KOTOR2 with evil I can anticipate

The Secretary of Homeland Security is trying to be all hard, but she really is just a garden variety Karen.

trump is in bed with netty and they are in full cahoots with this strike on iran. the reason trumps going domestic and international at the same time with the same violence is because they are both DESPERATE and LOSING BADLY. yet, at the cost and well being of so many brown lives.

Trump's people know who he is. They know he's a felon. They know he's in the Epstein reports. They know he's fucked over multiple businesses. They don't care. No revelation made matters. He hates who they hate and that's enough. No reveal will change this truth. It is their ENTIRE personality.

I hate having my eyes dilated but at least it looks like the vitreal detachment has chilled out

They keep telling us it can’t be done and we just keep doing it.

“We’re slowly going underground, underground, underground,” the mother said. “You put one thing in place, and then you have to prepare for when that gets taken away."

The only appropriate response to what Trump is doing is impeachment and removal from office. Elected officials who are not working toward this goal with urgency are helping to destroy the constitution and the rule of law.

Blacksky’s development continues to be so cool, it’s awesome to follow

Not sure how to say this, but even if Padilla hadn’t identified himself (which he did), throwing someone to the ground and cuffing them is a wildly disproportionate and fascist way of dealing with a press conference interruption

Cops lie all of the time. All of the time.

elected democrats: people are being kidnapped off your streets children being torn from mothers to be sent into your broken foster care system the trans people in your communities are dying your country is enabling genocide what the fuck are you even doing

Everyone: if you see something of note #onhere & want to quote it, please take a screenshot before you do. There are lots of folks posting questionable info & then deleting when called on it. Lots of misinfo. Screenshots ensure that the community can keep track of suspect users here.

This is why so many of Trump’s public interpreters are young white women. They bring this to his toolkit. Did anyone else read Jeff’s piece on this re: Noem? It is in the pocket. religiondispatches.org/dont-take-th...

Slotkin helped confirm Noem. Slotkin voted yes on Noem’s confirmation. @slotkin.senate.gov voted for this.

time for my new favorite tumblr post

Elected Democrats I'm sorry you wish none of this had happened. So do I. So do all who live to see such times. But you're going to have to do things outside the norms you're used to. Decorum is broken, decency shattered. An emergency befalls us. There are no questions left to ask. You must act.

Just so we're all clear: It's not a coincidence that the first senator they've used physical force against is Sen. Alex Padilla, a Latino man representing California.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Be sure you politely wait your turn to be arrested by the feds taking over your city.

Jeffries should have been out there IMMEDIATELY saying that his entire caucus was filing articles of impeachment against Noem. These people LOVE to issue letters. Think of this as a souped up letter and then BASH HER WITH IT DAILY. Every time you can start a sentence with: "NOEM must be impeached"

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."
