I wrote some quick thoughts about the concentration camps buttondown.com/abbycartus/a...
Free them all, end of sentence
The archipelago of concentration camps being filled by the Trump administration’s sadistic “interior enforcement” activities are a huge public health...

Felipe Gómez Alonzo, 8, died of flu in CBP custody in 2018. In 2019, a 16 year old named Carlos Gregorio
Hernandez Vasquez died of flu in a CBP cell in McAllen and there was video of his final hours, which I don’t recommend watching
CBP didn’t give her or anyone any water; she asked 3 times accg to other reports. CBP killed a 7yr old.

“8 hours after the girl & her father were taken into custody, she began having seizures & her body temperature was measured at 105.7 degrees by emergency medical technicians. shorturl.at/d2OTJ
7-Year-Old Migrant Girl Dies Of Dehydration And Shock In U.S. Border Patrol Custody
The girl's death underscores the crisis precipitated by large groups of families seeking asylum where there are inadequate facilities to detain them.

Political education is as important as anything else and we (as academics) need to stop whining about it and blaming everything on the shitty corrupt media. More people should be doing what @tbone.malware-virus.biz does (traveling around to talk to regular people in regular places about health care)
Good news: there's no durable majority for fascism

Bad news: we are locked in a life or death struggle against fascism and our victory depends on people with less understanding of how the world functions than my 14-month old
New poll: In 2024, low-engagement voters went for Trump over Harris by 11 percentage points. But now they disapprove of the way he's handling the presidency by 13. They have moved 25 points against Trump — 2x as large as the shift for high-knowledge voters www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trump-lost...

Could be that they are aiming to spreading out ICE activities to try to dilute/de concentrate local resistance
He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational
Homan: "Operation Metro Surge is ending. In the next week, we're going to deploy the officers here on detail back to their home stations or to other areas of the country where they're needed."

I don’t think we should be exclusively focused on self care as the world burns but I do think that mere seconds on this site absolutely shreds your mental health in a way that is not politically productive either

Much of Regent Square is technically Wilkinsburg, not city of Pittsburgh. Check addresses against the city boundaries when house hunting, unscrupulous agents out here listing “Regent Square craftsman” houses for $300k that are actually in Wilkinsburg

The WSJ has been on the right side of history in the past year on some things (more than other #newspapers of record at least), and this is one of them. No holds barred.

Also inserting this in there. Vinay Prasad wishes he was in the Epstein Files… 🙃

Fam I’m saying
Maybe I’m dumb (I am) but I think that lane is being barreled down by a lot of buses filled by great people who will destroy or take over (don’t care which) the Democratic Party. Seems like this moment contains incredible hope/promise alongside the horrors.
It's kind of insane: the obvious lane open today in US politics is fiery left populism that vows to restrain & discipline the Epstein class ... but our only left party is run by that same class & its quisling pundits! Something is gonna break.

Seeing this insane ICE violence in Saint Paul, and I’m wondering where Betty McCollum is. Just the most absent congressperson of all time. Hardly any communication about what’s happening to her constituent. Not built for the moment.

If you disagree with them using your American tax dollars to do this then you get disappeared into torture prison btw. The prominent Dems who employ you will cooperate with extrajudicial snitch groups on the one hand and ICE on the other to make it happen

We’ve been following Leqaa Kordia’s case for some time, and the updates has been growing worse. Lawmakers were not allowed to visit her last month.

Now her lawyers cannot find her.
When Texas lawmakers tried to visit 33-year-old “political prisoner” Leqaa Kordia at an ICE facility, she’d already lost 50 pounds and was running a high fever.

By Friday, she was hospitalized. But her family still has not been able to locate her.

They’re calling it the most cooked presidential administration in history.
The White House just sent a "Don't Panic" email. That'll do it
