Some ask, “Why would he bring a gun to a protest.” The answer is simple: “Because he could.” The NRA, right wing media, gun makers, Republican politicians, and the Supreme Court made sure of that. If they didn’t want him to carry a gun, why did they work so hard to make it legal for him to do so?

I’m watching a documentary about the experience of Black American soldiers in Britain during WWII and Anthony Eden, the PM at the time, tried to tell FDR that he didn’t think the US should send Black troops to the UK because *the UK was too cold for Black people*. Oh, the caucasity.

They gave a bunch of roided up thugs weapons and made them immune from legal consequences. You can't really tinker around the edges of something like that, you have to end it

People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.

"OK, quick follow up, do you realize when you say locking up a five-year-old coming home from preschool is 'making America a safer place' that normal people will think you're an insanely racist piece of shit?"
Q: Do you have any moral or ethical qualms about detaining a five-year-old on his way back from preschool?

I think cops mostly know what they're supposed to do (viciously repress marginalized people) and they mostly do that...
one of my kinda more crank, unworkable ideas is that there are jobs where the people who self-select into them are not the people who you want & that maybe we should just sortition people into those roles. like there are some things that attract people to policing that you don't want in cops.

This is Liam Ramos. The five year old that ICE took from a Minneapolis school and sent BY HIMSELF WITHOUT HIS FAMILY to a detention facility in Texas. There are monsters among us and they are wearing masks, carrying guns, and work for the US government.

Reminder that some of your neighbors could use help with snow removal because they can't safely leave their homes or they're busy out protecting the people who can't safely leave their homes (or wiped out from doing that work).

Grateful to everyone who pitches in. <3
Sunday: Fluffy snow. It’ll be slippery in the morning. Only an inch or two. Be a good neighbor and clear a few extra sidewalks or driveways.

Monday: Morning wind chills -25° to -35°

that's a valknut, which is associated not the with s.s. but with nordic paganism and which has been coopted by white supremacists. intent should not be assumed but interpreted in context, this context being the american gestapo perpetrating ethnic cleansing. so yeah, nazi
I wonder how long it will take the media to catch on to the fact that ICE’s recruiting spree has effectively deputized every white supremacist hate group out there.

Isn't it odd that the United States has enough money to suddenly run Venezuela, but not enough to run our own country?

There is always cash in the piggy bank for bombs to kill people, but never for healthcare to keep them alive.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

The orange felon says he’s removing National Guard from Portland, LA and Chicago because he claims it lowered crime.

The reality is that the Supreme Court forced him to remove the National Guard as he was illegally using troops to terrorize Americans cities that he hates.
