anyway as i have said many times — and literally just wrote on saturday — i think we should abolish ICE as well as unravel DHS and i welcome elected officials who embrace both outright but i am also aware that any senate majority will contain moderate and conservative democrats who need an on-ramp.

📌Trump has proven that if you murder enough innocent women, attack enough countries, put troops in our streets, level the White House, exterminate life-saving vaccines, cover for Russia, attack our health care, and wreck the job market, you can make the Epstein Files go away.

It's fun to say things.
Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith claims that every single one of the Founding Fathers "by today's standards, would be labeled a far-right Christian nationalist."

I was puzzled for a moment about why DHS would release the phone footage from the murderer's point of view, since it clearly shows that the murderer was in no danger from the victim.

If you are waiting for a sense of conscience to kick in, you are fooling yourself. This will stop when we make it stop.
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Fucking hell. The cherry on top of this hideous confection of race-baiting brutality is, of course, immigration agents targeting Native Americans. Say it slowly: Native Americans.
This isn't about immigration. It isn't even about immigrants. It's all raw white supremacy.
Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

Here is a thread about a true police-shooting incident that I'm going to use to pose a fun little thought problem for anyone anywhere who think there ia a single justifiable reason to ever allow a law enforcement officer to use force on a citizen and remain anonymous. From my back pages:

I do not want Pat McAfee
I do not want him on T.V.
I do not want him on my shows
I do not want his punting toes.
I do not want his awful takes
Or all his subject-verb mistakes.
I've had enough of gamble-ing
It's seeped its way to every-thing
I do not want Pat McAfee
Please keep him off of my T.V.

in addition to being depraved, i just got a vision of a 50-year-old rittenhouse still trying to dine on killing two people when he was 17
Kyle Rittenhouse was an honored guest at a 2024 gathering of Oregon Republican activists. This is the monstrously depraved tweet he sent tonight. These are the people who claim to be defending Christianity and “western civilization.”

Once again, I think citizens of democratic cities and states need to start discussing the odd situation in which we find ourselves — paying the bulk of taxes going to a mafia govt that wants to disenfranchise and kill us.

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times."

Bovino was there.

Jeff Houghton tells a never-before-heard version of the Springfield Daily Citizen’s origin story, in the style of Wes Anderson. Through the words of Anton P. Casper, the video celebrates the Daily Citizen’s work: Springfield news, smothered in quality journalism, “enchilada style.”

Remember when Dems folded and got nothing and everyone was so happy and patting themselves on the back about getting the Epstein Files released and they just blacked everything out and started deleting shit and now they're bombing Venezuela because we re-opened the government. Anyway
If Trump is really stealing spending power from Congress then it would be insanity for Democrats to vote to fund the government later this month. Shut it down until the president stops wiping his ass with the Constitution.
