I will never again see an ICE agent without assuming they're from Proud Boys or Oath Keepers, a pardoned Jan 6 rioter or a member of the KKK.

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

This tweet from an Afrikaner is not just antisemitic, it is in line with a white nationalist/neo-Nazi theology/ideology called British Israelism that sees white Anglos as the true "chosen people" & considers today's Jews to be imposters who deserve destruction. The screenshot is from a 1992 article.

ICE pretended to arrest a 21 yo in order to force her to call her undocumented mother to come leave the house (where she was safe from ICE arrest) to care for her baby. When the mother came, she was abducted and the daughter was suddenly of no interest to ICE. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

This sort of shit is why I, @anthonymkreis.bsky.social and @evanbernick.bsky.social are so angry, and why we wrote a whole law review article about that godawful oped. Because this is how they launder shit history, shit law, and shit political theory into the mainstream

The media frenzy on this topic & this book, while the unprecedented corruption & fascism are happening right in front of us, is obscene. And this right here is ridiculous, not least because these media outlets are not demanding this of the GOP after thrice nominating a criminal fascist. Happy week.
