"the entire body of anti-trans propaganda was workshopped in emails with the billionaire pedophile guy to facilitate twin campaigns of elimination and sex slavery" being both a.) true and b.) a thing no major news org seems interested in reporting is making me feel like I'm losing my fucking mind

"Mayhem can provoke a rash of traumatic baby hauntings, goblin highwaymen can be grabbed and thrashed about by their individual teeth, and—as one Dwarf Fortress player recently discovered—sometimes your soldiers might just burst into flames in a way that requires a panel of experts to diagnose."

It’s day 64 of the ICE occupation of MSP.

Today ICE officers once again arrested observers at gunpoint, caused lockdowns of neighborhood schools, and harassed people on the street simply for their skin color.

Nothing has changed, despite the rhetoric from “leaders.”

this unprecedented momentum behind a single issue sure might be a useful fulcrum to try and wrench this country back from over the brink
74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting it, according to YouGov polling from last month.

Weak calls for "reform" are coming from *elected* Democrats like Chuck, not the average Democratic voter.
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:

End the roving patrols and racial profiling.

Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.

Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.
Yes, Peter decided that the continued existence of our democracies isn't compatible with his desired level of personal freedom.

A cabal of pedophiles conspired to destroy the US government from within by seeding fascist ideas into online forums, spreading conspiracy theories about the opposition based on their own actions, and devised an alternative currency to upend the global economy. Now they run the US government and CBS

The thing that shocks me most is that all of this incriminating stuff was sitting at the DOJ for 4 years and Biden & Garland were not cynical or ruthless enough to use it against Trump & Musk in the run up to 2024.

If only they were the evil ‘weaponizers of government’ that MAGA claimed they were!

They don't have enough guys and they keep spreading them thinner, using all their juice for show arrests for things that aren't going to stick

Be brave. We're all holding hands .
Let me reiterate: THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUYS TO PERSECUTE LARGE NUMBERS OF DISSENTERS. What they are doing, instead, is using fear and paranoia as a force multiplier: they don’t have to persecute us if we keep ourselves home because someone told us we can’t walk in public without being terrified.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.
