If I wanted to watch a military parade I'd wait until the Fete National on July 14th like a grown up and celebrate a country (mine) that's been doing it for long enough that it's not a circle jerk for fascists and the sad, weak, erratic, kleptocratic narcissitic strongman.

That’s… the definition of not just heavy handed but also you dumb bitch, you’re not supposed to direct that military might inward!!!!!!!! You ideally wouldn’t be directing it anywhere esp in numerous attacks and conflicts this country has engaged in in my lifetime but holy shit you’re definitely…

This is so jarringly unAmerican that I sort of hope it wakes some normies up. It is occurring in a context where military-style equipment is being used to enforce immigration roundups and conveys the notion that we are increasingly living in a police state.

There are many questions left to be answered about this. Please be careful about spreading information with certainty about any of this until more facts come in.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

The LA protests will trigger a drumbeat of "law and order" messaging from the White House and their media allies as a prelude to invoking the Insurrection Act. This is entirely predictable, and any Dem or media outlet that facilitates this narrative will be aiding Trump's authoritarian project.

Some of the BS takes we're seeing are also what a near-religious belief in criminalization gets you. All of the "no one is above the law" BS (um, have you noticed that, yes, some people fucking are?) is a fetishization. People think we're going to upstandingly cooperate our way out of fascist rule.

it sounds like some people are saying you shouldn’t protest because it plays into Trump’s hand and I’m not really sure what they think sitting at home is doing

ICE thugs now pretending to be utility workers to get access to private property to kidnap people, threatening press not to report about it. Thankfully in Arizona a woman discovered the ruse just in time and alerted her neighbor. tucson.com/news/local/b...

The latest wave of COVID revisionism is a transparent attack on the idea of expertise itself. It is not 'hubris' for public health professionals to issue guidance during public health emergencies!

I do not want Gazans to be burned alive. I do not want Jewish people to be set on fire. I do not want these things for any human being. This is not a difficult position to hold or believe.

Joni Ernst is a POS: "Illegals" don't get Medicaid benefits. Medicaid is not money mailed to people. Medicaid PAYS health bills. My mom's memory care was paid for by Medicaid. And it's HARD as HELL to qualify. Undocumented people sometimes pay IN thru taxes. They do NOT get friggin' benefits. Bitch.

I told the reporter that I thought the President did NOT have authority to name an acting librarian -- either under the Vacancies Act OR under inherent Article II authority. She got the second part but reversed the first. Aack. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

When he showed up to an immigration meeting in Memphis, Kasper Eriksen thought he was on the verge of becoming a citizen. Then ICE arrested the Mississippi father of four, not even giving him a chance to say goodbye to his wife, whisking him away to a prison. @nickjudin.bsky.social reports:

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few: 1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.

Please stop sharing the post claiming tornado warnings were late + people died in Kentucky because NWS was understaffed. It took a lot of extra planning to compensate for the Doge-induced shortages but they say they were staffed "for the entirety of the event." www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025...
