Huge mistake by Mamdani to say clearly that a bad thing is bad. He should first triangulate the message and then remove every aspect that might offend Republicans. That's the savvy Dem consultant way.
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Trump on Renee Good: "When she was shot, there was another woman that was screaming 'Shame. Shame Shame Shame.' So loud. Like a professional opera singer. She was so loud. And so professional. She wasn't a woman that was hurt like, 'Oh my heart is injured.' She was a professional."

French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy to try to intimidate her during Marine Le Pen's trial for embezzlement — and details how he has used similar fascistic tactics to intimidate other judges around the world who rule against his alt-right friends.

For @lareviewofbooks.bsky.social I wrote about Brenda Navarro’s EATING ASHES in Megan McDowell’s new translation, a novel that considers many domestic issues often addressed in contemporary Mexican fiction from the position of emigrants longing for the friends, family, and homeland left behind.

How fatally flawed are ICE and CBP? Here's a wild statistic: In rough terms, CBP officers and Border Patrol agents commit crimes at an equal or even *greater* rate PER CAPITA than the population of undocumented immigrants do in the United States. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...
"ICE 101" — How Trump changed ICE and CBP into a fascist secret police
ICE and CBP are fatally flawed products of the post-9/11 War on Terror — now Trump has weaponized those very flaws to occupy America.

It's SUCH a great film.
There's a new entry in our trip through all 100 of Sight and Sounds' all-time greatest movies at The Reveal today. It's about WANDA, a film neither @scotttobias.bsky.social nor I had seen before. It's also one that unlocked an upsetting childhood viewing mystery for me. Give it a read!
#50 (tie): ‘Wanda’: The Reveal discusses all 100 of Sight & Sound’s Greatest Films of All Time
Little seen in 1970, Barbara Loden's sole directorial feature is a grim portrait of one alienated woman's aimless existence that's been rediscovered and championed in the 21st century.

DO YOU REGRET THE RUDE LANGUAGE YOU USED TOWARD THE OCCUPIERS KILLING PEOPLE, SIR?
KARL: In the hours after the shooting of Renee Good, you went on national TV and said to ICE, 'get the F out of Minneapolis.' Do you regret that language? That doesn't sound like turning the temperature down
JACOB FREY: I don't regret it at all. If I seemed like I was angry and frustrated, I was.

I can’t get the face of this autistic woman out of my mind.
She was driving through an area where ICE was active when they forcibly removed her from her car. She was on her way to a brain injury clinic appointment. She screamed as they carried her away that she was autistic and had a brain injury.
