Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."

He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.

Liberals hit back at Vance's blunt dismissal of racist, antisemitic and misogynistic messages leaked from a Young Republicans group chat.

Historians have been observing the US evolve into a fascist state & the lawlessness of a paramilitary force, ICE. It appears that these heavily armed squads are chanting antisemitic lyrics. The similarities with the fascist extra-military forces in Italy & Germany, in the ‘30s, are disturbing.

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

Morning's daydreaming after waking up:

•Psychology "Checking in habits", how people depend on certain habits to feel like syncing the day's social navigation.

It’s #portfolioday so I gotta show my stuff! It’s da law!

I’m a watercolour artist based in Japan and I like painting fantastical surrealism (or something like that).

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

Lief 🌻🍉 Comms Open ✨ @liefygreens.bsky.social · 1d

Heyo #PortfolioDay ! 💜✨

I'm Lief, a trans man from Canada, and I love painting fantasy / ttrpg art (especially elves, wizards, and queer characters)! I'm open for personal and commercial work, and I have a #Patreon for character portraits!

🌙 patreon.com/liefygreens
🪄 liefygreens.carrd.co

A digital rendered illustration of two autumn eladrin posing, looking at the viewer, one laying their head and hands on top of the other's. They are mine and my friend's original characters. They are both pale-skinned with orange hair and beards. Accolon (top) has golden eyes with black sclera and Estel (bottom) has green eyes with white sclera. They are both covered in golden jewelry. Estel has flowers in his hair and wears a burgundry v-neck top and autumnal makeup. Accolon has a green to black gradient around their eyes, on their arms, and at their ears. The background is indicative of a tavern.

A rendered digital illustration of two original characters kissing. One is a pale-skinned firbolg with long, beaded brown hair and hooves wearing a large brown coat and blue embroidered cardigan. He is leaning down dramatically to kiss his partner, a dark blue-skinned elf with chitinous armour and tight, dark clothing. They also have gold markings on their upper arms and face, and they stand on their tip toes to kiss the firbolg. They both stand on a well-worn path in a flower field in early spring, snow still melting, with green trees on the horizon.

A rendered digital painting of two men as a study of Springtime (Pierre Auguste Cot). One man is a scruffy tan-skinned human with pulled up black hair, and the other is an elegant, pale autumn eladrin with flowing red hair with flowers in it.

A rendered digital portrait of a blue-skinned fairy with a long blue mullet and blue morpho-inspired wings. They are smiling widely at the viewer. They have dark blue/purple moth-like antennae, white whiskers, and a spectral white unicorn horn. They have freckles and a pink blush across their cheeks. The background is a dark purple to gold gradient, with the gold centred around the character's head.
