Appreciate him articulating this explicitly although people will continue to rationalize bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump: "They're gonna make DC a state and they're gonna make Puerto Rico a state. So now they pick up two states, four senators. They're gonna pick up electoral votes. It's gonna be a very, very bad situation. Now, if we do what I'm saying, they'll most likely never obtain power."
I’m pretty sure we all know why

It's impossible to overstate how much of what ICE is doing on the ground reflects this completely preposterous conflation of hostile *speech* and hostile *conduct.*

The First Amendment protects—or, at least, is supposed to protect—the former up and until it's a "true threat," which none of this is.
From Bovino's deposition: (1) he calls protestors "violent" if they articulate views hostile to ICE, even if no violence is manifested; (2) he instructs his forces to attack and arrest protestors who express "hyperbolic comments," which is to say, criticism of ICE and Bovino.

We live in a unserious circus.
Brett Kavanaugh's behavior during today's second oral arguments has been incredibly obnoxious and rude. He is so eager to kill a service member's lawsuit against a negligent government contractor that he keeps interrupting other justices, raising his voice, and getting emotional. Weird and erratic.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.
We hit you, but it was for your own good

What an odd set of options offered in the CBS News Poll. DEI but nothing about democracy or rule of law.👀

Newsom: "This is a historically unpopular president. His policies are even more unpopular than him. In every core category he's underwater. He who promised to make us healthier & wealthier & we're poorer and sicker ... He knows he's lose midterms so he's trying to rig it before 1 vote is cast"

THERE WAS NO "CLASH." Federal immigration agents attacked protesters and community members.
Federal immigration agents fanned out across Chicago and its North Shore suburbs on Halloween, chasing suspects through front yards, driving SUVs onto sidewalks and using chemical agents during confrontations with furious residents.

The first step in the 12 step program is admitting you have a problem. I just wish she was at the point of making amends to the millions of Americans she has harmed by her actions.

It’s just stunning how much this administration despises the American people.

Do they typically award Nobel Peace prizes to someone who murders people every day by blowing up their boats while claiming they deserved it for transporting drugs, but doesn’t give them due process, a fair trial, or present any evidence or proof of guilt to anyone?

The bottom line is that the GOP absolutely cannot be trusted to deal with any societal problem.

They lead with cruelty and focus exclusively on how to package private greed as public service.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.
