This sounds crazy & partisan & extreme, & then when you think about it for 30 seconds more, you realize it’s the baseline moderate position now if you care even minimally about the rule of law, civil liberties, & the Constitution.
Impeach, convict, and remove Trump, Vance, Noem, and all civil officers of the US, then go about firing for cause anyone who helped write or carried out this memo.

If this is not a flagrant violation of the Fourth Amendment, I don't know what is.

NYP's CEO made $26.3 million last year. That's $72,000 a day—more than many of his own staff make in a year. But the hospital says it can't afford safe nurse-to-patient ratios.

Engaging in this sort of thing is one way we can resist fascism.

Really good post
1/5 🧵Sabai...I hear the urgency. But...here’s the move: do not feed their chaos narrative. They want DISORDER. Our leverage is mass participation + lawful friction + receipts.

I'm sorry, didn't we _just_ give ICE enough money to build an entire carrier battle group? And the premise is oh, that didn't include training or cameras, training and cameras are gonna be extra?

And that's the SENATE DEM position?
it actions like this that make people, especially gen z, despise the democratic party. what are we doing here

While we’re in the streets demanding ICE Out For Good, Democratic leaders are dodging questions about whether an agency that teargasses babies and kills innocent people should continue to have a budget bigger than most countries’ militaries. It’s pathetic.

I want these fuckers prosecuted. I will not vote for a candidate who shies away from this.
A teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present.

He was bundled into the van & taken away.

Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?”

I don’t know how America comes back from all this.

This should be the easy stuff
“But what do you expect Democrats to doo-hooo?”

1) Refuse to fund this criminal government anymore.

2) EVERY one of them call to abolish ICE (and bonus, DHS). No more “they need training” shit. Promise prosecutions.

3) EVERY one of them call for Trump’s impeachment, relentlessly, EVERY day.

The DOJ is more than three weeks late in delivering the Epstein Files. In those three weeks:

- Trump declared himself acting President of Venezuela
- ICE murdered a woman in Minnesota
- Trump is preparing an invasion of a NATO ally
- Trump initiated a criminal investigation of Fed Chair Powell

The brazenness of doing something like this now is telling. I'm just not sure whether it's a sign of weakness or strength.
Anyone who votes for that should resign.
Senate Democrats are CURRENTLY negotiating a plan to INCREASE ICE funding by another 10%

I will immediately do a max contribution to @aoc.bsky.social if she primaries Schumer

This *vocalized* moral clarity is so desperately needed everywhere:
AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”

Call your rep. Call leadership. Say something or expect nothing.
love it when someone’s response to “call your reps” is: no. i’m not going to bc my rep should be able to read my mind and/or be perfect in every way. since they are incapable of either, i quit.

smh. grow up already, ffs.

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

Yeah, let’s stop considering the opinions of actual experts in their fields and just present the news from the perspective of random morons. Honestly, pretty emblematic of modern America, sadly. @radiofreetom.bsky.social may be prophetic.

I wasn't sure, but you raised a really good point. 🤔
Trump has fake hands. We’ve all seen it, that’s why they refuse to talk about his health. No one bruises from handshakes; it’s the Chinese-made prosthetic discoloring from use! #trumphasnohands

the number one requirement for the next Dem president is that they are willing to look back

with a flamethrower
There's a series of things (like the ballroom, Gulf of America) that we're going to have to *undo* the moment this guy is out of office.
And yet I can already hear future Democrat presidents saying "I'm focused on the people's work, not the knucklehead stuff" and just leave this man's shit up.

If the US invades Venezuela, as seems...likely?...at this point, the IOC should ban US participation in the upcoming Winter Games, and FIFA should move the World Cup out of the United States, if not ban the US from international competitions.

It's what the world did to Russia, for good reason.

What words are there to say about any kind of identity-based violence?

Just don't do it. There can be no tolerance for identity-based dehumanization, discrimination and violence.
