If it was done in defiance of a judges order the technical term for that is "illegal" which means it's not an arrest and deportation - which require those conducting it to at least presume they are acting within the law - but a kidnapping and human trafficking

I dunno man, if the WH can point to people from Latin America and say "gang member," and point to people from the Arab world and say "terrorist" or "antisemite," and those designations lead directly to detention or worse, I think we have to acknowledge we're in a pretty bad place.

It only makes sense to me if you assume that the same donors run both parties, and they want republicans to be in charge and democrats to be ineffective. Then it makes perfect sense.

isn't it deeply fucked up that the people not convicted of or even charged with any crime are sent to a forced labor prison to be kept there... possibly indefinitely? with no rights, no means to appeal, no anything

Seems like has been very little coverage of protests happening in the U.S.--not necessarily an intentional media blackout (although possibly), but the result of a longstanding stance in legacy media that protests aren't worth covering, activists aren't credible sources (but somehow CEOs are), etc.

Nothing about American life will ever convince me that those who accumulate great wealth are worthy of respect. The admirable billionaire is a malignant fairy tale.

Big thanks to all the law enforcement officers helping swell the ranks at #TeslaTakedown protests around the country. Without your valued presence, the alliance between state and corporate power that has always defined fascism wouldn't be so obvious in all the media coverage!

Every time I wrote about my home state, readers would just be like "F-- Texas, throw the state away", not realizing that what I was trying to do was show them what was going to happen nationwide. That money is king, that people, yes, are cowards, and that "rules" are made to suit the powerful.

People who I trust as real NOs: - Warren, Sanders - Ossoff (voted no as a front liner up in 26) - Warnock (called for new leadership) - Kim and Gallego (said they were nos on both CR and cloture) Everyone else I suspect, but Booker and Hickenlooper played coy for way too long and are up in 26.

I'm rewatching The Wire. A character in the episode I'm watching says, "A lie ain't a side of the story. It's just a lie." For some reason, that speaks to me these days (as do a million other lines from the show.)

This is correct. The Bush administration tortured prisoners and weaponized the DOJ to institutionalize it as policy, and the only prosecutions were of foot soldiers who did short time and got parole. The US is a country that believes in torture of prisoners and detainees. That is what the US is.

You beat fascism by making common cause with everyone who is not a fascist and not a collaborator, but that second part is critical. It’s a non-ideological coalition in which we don’t have to agree about anything except the need to fight.

The Dickin Medal is the highest award that can be issued to animals in British military service. Bearing the words "We Also Serve" it has been awarded 75 times since its creation in 1943. Only one cat has ever received the award. This is the story of Able Seacat Simon, of HMS Amethyst. 🧵 1/25

The word polycrisis really applies to Texas. Running out of water. Much of the water they have is polluted. Air is polluted. Efforts to hide the toxic water underground are resulting in toxic geysers and lakes. And also leading the world in methane emissions from oil and gas production.
