The Overton Window has shifted all the way to ban all non-white people from coming to America. It was never about illegal immigration.

"trump wants people protesting in front of the marines" but the thing is many are going to be, quite literally protesting the marines. the marines should not be on american streets. it is wrong, it is antidemocratic, it is fascist, it is contrary to how people understand themselves as americans

No, there were plenty of American flags. You can find pictures on the front page of NYT. The problem is that any idiot can take a picture of a Mexican flag and then Elon Musk will blow it up on Twitter, so a lot of liberals have arrived at the solution that any visible Mexican pride should be hidden

I'd like to be extremely concerned about the marines being deployed to an American city and the scientific committee that determines vaccine schedules being disbanded, but I'm gonna hold off until the Distraction Knowers give the okay

This is the kind of thing that is going to happen constantly now that we have an unaccountable masked gang with complete impunity: Random scammers, stalkers and criminals are just going to pretend to be ICE, because why not?

“The issue here goes beyond Los Angeles or California: If the president of the United States can, without notice to the governor and without the constitutionally required request of the governor, send the military into our city, he can do so in any city in America at any time and for any reason”

A Mexican flag at an anti-ICE protest in LA? My gosh, what's next, an Irish flag at a St. Patrick's Day parade?

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.

The random people at the spontaneous protest that popped off because they saw the busboy at their neighborhood restaurant being kidnapped by ICE should have planned the optics better

They're literally going with the "just doing their jobs" defense.

If your first instinct to a community defending their friends, families, and neighbors from murderous fascists looking to kidnap them is to say, "Maybe they should be more polite about it," you're probably not on the side you think you are.

Deeply tied together. Republicans want to expand ICE, give tax cuts to billionaires, and take away people's healthcare and food in order to pay for it.

It would be so great if Democratic elected officials started acting as if the president was trying to arrest them all, because he is.

My favorite “cities are a war zone” thing is a tweet I remember where someone took a video of a dozen children playing soccer and captioned it “Minneapolis has fallen”. I kept replaying it thinking I had missed something but no, it was just that they weren’t white

Now is the perfect time to be pressing this point hard. The entire premise of the immigration "debate" is nonsense, and it's debasing and destroying the country for immigrants and citizens alike. Who in national politics has the courage and the skill to say so?

If you enjoy the Paris food scene, full of little bakeries and cheese shops, you should know that the city enables this by having lower rents for locally-owned small stores. This kind of development can’t just happen without subsidy in our current business climate, and it needs to be protected.

It is genuinely unsafe for average people to use Twitter and speak freely. It appears to be this administration's primary intelligence gathering operation.

Seeing a massive divide online between Angelenos of all political stripes who understand that the protests in LA yesterday were mostly peaceful and any violence was ICE-initiated and East Coast establishment liberals lecturing “the left” on how riots just amplify right wing talking points.

i don’t think it’s realistic to ask people being targeted due to their ethnicity and national origin not to engage in displays of ethnic and national pride

This is a good model on what to ask your own city councils for - no contracts with ICE, no assistance or compliance with immigration enforcement because it is literally not your job. 🤷🏻

the decision to "be safe" is no longer yours to make. the state has decided to make us unsafe. but you can make informed choices, take calculated risks, and you can decide to be powerful.

Worth bearing in mind that illegal entry is a misdemeanor and being unlawfully present in the country is not even a criminal offense, but a civil one. This is the equivalent of saying we need to torch the Constitution & send in the SWAT team to catch jaywalkers & people with overdue library books.

Every time we criticize people in the streets fighting Nazis who are kidnapping our people we tell the country the revolutionaries are the lawless ones. When in fact they are responding to the lawlessness of the state. If you want non-violent means come up with ideas that will stop Nazis yourself.

Because there’s gonna be a “violence is never acceptable” discourse feels important to emphasize that kidnapping people off the streets & separating from their families, maybe sending them to a foreign gulag…. is violence, and what’s happening on the streets is a counter violence

Reminder: jury nullification won't be in your jury instructions and is not something you're allowed to talk about in court. If you bring up jury nullification during jury selection, you WILL be thrown off the jury. Want to nullify? Just vote to acquit. That's all nullification is: a vote to acquit.

If Andrew Cuomo, a craven politician desperate for power, is putting out statements about ICE like this, that’s both a sign that the Trump administration is losing on immigration and that the pundits who are arguing we need to take a harder stance on immigration to win are full of shit.
