Despite Trump’s promises, grocery prices are still rising fast. Families can’t afford this… when is he going to get serious about lowering costs?

BREAKING — ChongLy Scott Thao's family has released a statement disputing DHS's outrageous justification for his arrest.

"He does not live with, nor has he ever lived with, the individuals DHS claims were targets of this operation...[the family] does not know the individuals DHS references."

Yet another example of the idiocy of the Supreme Court’s immunity opinion: If Trump invades Greenland, even for the most insane reason (like not winning the Nobel Peace Prize) and against our obvious national interest, it’s an “official act” that can never be held legally accountable

Not headline news. No real fuss by Democratic leaders. No calls to censure. No pushback. No questions asked of GOP leadership by the press.

Just totally accepted anti-Muslim bigotry across the board.

Media selling LA as rich spoiled people to the gen pop is so funny. That's a tiny tiny percentage of this town. Most of LA is the people you see being disappeared. LA has the largest clothing manufacturing hub in the country and it ain't staffed by the likes of Brad Pitt and George Clooney.
I think a lot of the world looks at the US and sees 330 million spoiled, stupid rich people and I wish it was easier to explain why that's wrong to people who've only seen New York and maybe DC or LA, but you can never convince them that they don't understand the whole thing.

Any time someone proposes reforming instead of abolishing ICE, it bears noting that ICE is currently violating a bunch of federal court injunctions, plus their own policies.

Giving the sadistic ethnic cleansing squad more rules to ignore is not enough

there is a real lack of understanding of what “grace” is. grace is a gift. and like all gifts it should be received in gratitude. and that gratitude must include a sincere effort to repent and make recompense for what you’ve done. anything else cheapens the gift.

Honestly boycotting the World Cup would be the most effective and probably the least disruptive of all of the options available to Europe. I’m not sure how you can send teams and fans to contribute to a spectacle designed entirely to celebrate a guy trying to invade your territory.

they’re going to need to impose consequences that are felt in a personal way by the people in charge

ruining Trump’s big sports show, travel bans for the GOP (or, hell, all of congress), travel bans for rich Trump allies, sanctions on the Trump family

they feel invincible, change their minds

What you might not see is the victim in the car. His feet are pointing out the open car door. An agent is sitting on one of his legs. He’s only wearing crocs.

Bystanders found his legal work visa in his abandoned car.

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

It is really hard these days to over emphasize that these people are exercising the logic—albeit somehow even more ineptly—of the nazi state. They want everything to be assumed by the prerogative state and are telling us as much.
