This is what ice is doing

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

@timmiller.bsky.social talked to a veteran who ICE wrongly detained and brutalized

You should not control a nuclear arsenal if you cannot tell the difference between fiction and reality. The story needs to be told through the lens of mental illness

Trump has gone totally mad. It's 25th Amendment time all day, every day. He's living in a totally invented, fictional world. And he's old and in ill-health.

It's outrageous, reckless, choose your word that Republicans haven't done more to deal with this.

Trump: "The restaurants were all closing, now you can't get into a restaurant. They're opening up new restaurants. It took 12 days for us. We sent in not politically correct military. We sent them in based on merit."

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

Look at the dude left of screen. What is that face?

Lisa Pierce @labsp61.bsky.social · 3h

My favourite part was the heart of a 65 year old. That still makes me smile (as my migraine advances)

I have never seen 🍊💩🤡 stand like that...he usually has his arms hanging down at his sides looking bored until he can speak again

Lisa Pierce @labsp61.bsky.social · 3h

My first thought too!

Lisa Pierce @labsp61.bsky.social · 3h

And the mindless minions smile and nod...

GO TO PORTLAND you 🐔💩

Lisa Pierce @labsp61.bsky.social · 4h

But can I ask...isn't his remarkably amazing '65 year old' heart at odds with the CVI they said he has?

And again...more 'believe what we tell you not what you see'...we are supposed to look at 🍊💩🤡 and somehow see the picture of health and vitality??? My eyes apparently deceive me🙄

Lisa Pierce @labsp61.bsky.social · 4h

Oddly he was my first thought. Can you blame her? Even as vile as she is...

EL PASO — a family says ICE showed up at their house looking for migrants and shot and KILLED THEIR DOG, then didn’t help them as the agent ran away and was not identified.

PRITZKER: "I genuinely think there is something wrong with him. I wish that his family would intervene, because I do think he needs mental health help."

Greg Sargent @gregsargent.bsky.social · 1d

JB Pritzker has also been emphatically placing Trump's mental decline squarely on the agenda. On our pod, he adds a new element: People around Trump are using his decline to manipulate him, so they're less likely to intervene. More Dems should say this. 1/
