@timmiller.bsky.social, fellow native Coloradan, DC for college (GT), roughly same age. Now back in CO but spent my pre-covid adult life in NYC & Chicago and you are *very wrong* about the dynamism and success of Illinois in regards to Pritzker. (1/n)

The Big Lie undergirding MAGA’s immigration posture is that immigrants are fundamentally parasitic, they just take from the host country. It’s a fascist conception and also just obviously wrong if you think about it for more than 10 seconds. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

alright, i'm asking in seriousness. do folks know what lynching is? do folks know the *legal* issues with lynching? it's actually more complicated than you think, and i'm not a legal scholar so i don't want to step out of my lane--BUT I'VE READ BOOKS.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

The White House is claiming it can take away anyone’s rights without due process and throw them in a foreign prison forever. What could be higher stakes than that? *This* is the trap, you fool: Talking yourself into accepting the end of rights in America because standing up for them might be hard.

This is a craven, evil take. Also, it's hypocritical and senseless - these infighting, Dems-in-disarray stories distract from the tariff messaging at least as much as fighting lawless kidnapping and destruction of human rights does. For nothing but the thrill of being a source of anonymous gossip.

Removing people to a third country to be imprisoned in a foreign gulag is also not deportation as it is typically understood. We can't allow these terms to be redefined.

10 national unions repping 3 million members demand the release of abducted immigrant workers and call for employers and university admins to refuse to cooperate and elected officials to “find their spines.” This is the way. labornotes.org/blogs/2025/0...

Trump has done the same damage to our health, environment and security as to our markets, it's just that there isn't a stock ticker that measures the impact so clearly

"Do you want a good government or a country that's in ruins?" This interview was too good not to share in its entirety. So meet Grant, a 15-year-old student from Princeton, New Jersey, who spoke to our reporter at the #HandsOff rally there. He has some thoughts.
