I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Wow, who could have predicted all of this?
The co-founder of Latinas for Trump is now condemning Trump’s ICE raids:

“I’m afraid of someone stopping my son.”

“This is not what we voted for.”

You can always know when #leavitt is drowning in her own bullshit, her face is such a tell. Such a look of earnest desperation.

Since someone referred to Bovino as Barney Fife I can’t get it out of my head.

Mayberry theme plays every time I see that farcical fuck’s face.

The biggest political story of the last 40 years is the Republican Party losing their fucking minds
Rep. Greg Steube: "You see Macron and the French sending troops to Greenland. I would love to see the US military up against French troops in Greenland, because it would not last very long. It would be a very small skirmish ... we don't care about what Macron and the French want."

How do you eat these abominations. Date food?
The problem with burgers being taller instead of wider - and this still hasn't been addressed, despite global outcry - is that there are more burger artists than burger engineers, hence the clumsy, towering abominations to which we're subjected.
When I come to power this will change.

Middle schoolers can spot inequality, unfairness and a threat as good as anyone. They are also not easily muzzled. Respect is everything to them. Love my peeps! Release the dogs of war.
ARKANSAS — The walkout follows an incident last week in which a bus of middle school students was mistakenly taken to an ICE detention facility

The students were supposed to visit [to a DHS] office to observe demonstrations including fingerprint analysis, digital forensics, and evidence collection

We can no longer wait him and his thug administration out. They must be stopped and removed. Root and branch.
Huge thanks to the No Kings protestor who let me photograph them with their “Action Absorbs Anxiety” sign. I think about that sign all the time! And many thanks to @prisonculture.bsky.social and @meganpiont.bsky.social, whose work and advocacy with zines made the idea of diving in so much easier.

They can call anything a crime now. GOP just drops to the ground to give the solders a clean line of sight.
In which DHS says a U.S. citizen can be detained for speaking in Mexican accented Spanish. How many people in the US would be subject to being detained on this basis?

Police should have checked for finger prints and questioned the person in charge of that station. What is that agent’s name and current address. We need to take him in for questioning on assault and robbery complaint.
Yes, immigration agents not only took Arnoldo's phone, the 10th grader had to use Find My Phone to locate it — in a vending machine for used electronics, close to an ICE detention center.

No doubt we would gain 2 democratic senate seats and a couple house seats…go for it. Political genius!
This kind of talk is both stupid and dangerous. Why aren’t they more concerned about fixing our dying economy? Are all these people working for Putin?
