The Homeland Security Act of 2002 has been a multi-trillion dollar boondoggle and that's the least bad thing about it. It's decades past time to Repeal & Replace.

A peaceful anti-ICE march turned ugly when the Tennessee Highway Patrol drove into the crowd, hitting at least three people
Patrollers also arrested a woman who appeared to be trying to prevent them from driving further into the gathered pedestrians.

if you vote for another cent for this you are a collaborator. this is a litmus test for every politician for the rest of my life
Yesterday, these incompetent fucks were just going door-to-door in a neighborhood near my house at 8:30 in the morning. School buses were driving through trying to pick up kids, people were out walking their dogs, and people were taking out their trash cans.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

elected democrats who want their constituents to remain non-violent in their protests of these abuses must actually offer a path for ending the abuses non-violently. they currently are not as a party and it’s a major problem.
🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.
He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

The fundamental thread linking all of this godawful stuff, I’m convinced, is that these chuds all over America - in golf clubhouses, DHS facilities, and at kids’ soccer games - have convinced themselves that they never have to hear the word no, and if they do, they’re allowed to respond violently.

Mike Johnson: "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do"
Mike Johnson comes out against additional guardrails on ICE as Democrats call for it.
“I think there's a lot of Democrats playing games right now with national security and with law enforcement. And I think it's dangerous. Ice is doing what ice is designed to do by its very name.”

I dunno man, my local DSA chapter meetings offer free childcare, which you have to admit is at least marginally better than the right's vision of legal rape and forced birth
The US and other countries face aging, shrinking populations. Conservatives have shaped debate over the issue. Some liberals say it's time for progressives to weigh in. n.pr/3NH3yso

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this:
America's problems are solved problems. Just not here.
What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵
