Like with using children as bait and eating at a restaurant then kidnapping the people who prepared it, ICE is routinely breaking taboos that have been part of human civilization since before recorded history.
Two female ICE agents popped the hood of their car and knocked on the door of a mechanic born in Mexico. He went out to help.

ICE drawdown? Indications point to steady enforcement activity outside the Twin Cities
Some people who observe ICE activity are skeptical about a large scale drawdown of agents in the state. There are indications that activity has decreased in the Twin Cities, but has continued outside ...

When even Axios puts up a post this direct, you know it's bad. Like BAD bad.
New York Fed researchers found that Americans are bearing the brunt of Trump's tariffs. The White House's economic adviser said they should be "disciplined."
Trump's economic adviser says authors of tariff study should be "disciplined"
The findings of the New York Fed paper runs counter to what the president claims about his tariffs.

Real insane part of this clip is Hassett saying in the beginning that NY Fed researchers “should be disciplined” for…writing an economics paper that comes to a conclusion the president dislikes? A conclusion that matches the vast majority of economic evidence on tariffs? Nuts
Hassett: "The basic theory of President Trump's tariffs is sure, we're importing stuff from China, but we've got producers in US who make stuff, maybe at alightly higher place. If we bring stuff home, create demand, then that will hurt China & drive up wages & American consumers will be better off."

I hope we never allow ourselves to get so jaded, so cynical, so faux-“savvy” that we’re no longer outraged and disgusted about this deranged nonsense:

Looking back at the framework I put together for making sense of the way the second Trump Administration would work, I got lots of things right. But I probably underrated the influence of people with actual Nazi ideologies. 🤬

I work with partners who are all Australian and live in Aus and HK. In order to help them understand the behavior of the Trump Admin, I put together a little primer, which I am going to share in a thread below.

I liked the US better when I knew a lot less about actual history, economics, and how our legal system really works.

Deplorable state of U.S. media on display here, deliberately misleading the public. You can literally type into Google the same question @aoc.bsky.social was asked and the AI will give you her same answer because "strategic ambiguity" has been official U.S. policy her whole life.

I don't know what to do but just keep repeating it so I don't go insane: the rise & eventual total domination of RW media is the single most significant political development of my lifetime and the entirely of the US political & media elite resolutely refuse to discuss or even acknowledge it.

This is why people who actually want to get rid of Fascism don’t want Governor Goodhair anywhere near the White House.

If your first thought is “oh, a purity test, you must not want to win”, then I invite you to fuck all the way off.
