Even if you assume the legitimacy of ICE operations, the idea that a fucking truck-mounted machine gun is necessary to carry them out is insane.
This is about intimidation. This is them letting us know that the streets of the United States have been militarized.

The administration is threatening to strip the citizenship of a man voters chose to serve as the Democratic Party’s nominee for Mayor of New York City because they don’t like his political views.

This is the slippery slope
New reporting on use of federalized National Guard in what appears like DEA-led drug bust, no protesters in sight, far outside of LA
@lizagoitein.bsky.social has very sharp analysis on why this appears illegal on all counts (including Trump’s own presidential memorandum)

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.
She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.
But the FDA recently denied its approval.
Now, her health hangs in the balance.
Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵
