The acting director of ICE told Congress, under oath, that local law enforcement in Colorado leaked raid plans, allowing gang members to escape.

After 9NEWS questioned ICE's claim and its timeline, ICE deleted the claim from its social media platforms.

If you've ever looked at, say, UK politics and wonder how they got themselves into such a weird, twisty, ineffective knot...

a key reason is that people are trying to do politics without the "woke" so as not to offend the fascist-curious amongst us.

The results are...not great, no.
Yeah, the Nazi tattoo is part of the appeal for Platner for a lot of people. His candidacy is supposed to signal the left no longer concerns itself with “woke” issues like public displays of bigotry.
Just gonna say there are plenty of insurgent, anti-establishment candidates WITHOUT Nazi tattoos that the New Republic could have featured instead of Platner.

You could ABSOLUTELY make the point that Ds are mad at the centrist leaders of the party WITHOUT helping rehabilitate this particular guy.

Homan: "When they say 'stop racial profiling' -- that's just not occurring. ICE will briefly detain and question somebody based on reasonable suspicion. It has nothing to do with racial profiling."

I said this on @santitajackson.bsky.social's show this morning. They are PROUD of deporting millions of people. That's why the leadership of the Democratic Party will never defund ICE.

Note that Hillary says "without killing American citizens" - that's because she doesn't value immigrants lives.
Hillary Clinton: "More people were deported under my husband and Barack Obama without killing American citizens and without putting children into detention camps than were in the first Trump term or this first year of Trump's second term."

This is not the flex she thinks it is. What she is trying to say is “we targeted legitimate criminals, and we’re more successful than these fucking fascists tripping over their dicks while trying to do ethnic cleansing”

Which —- EVEN THEN —- not the flex you think it is Hil-dog. Just don’t talk

This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the “baby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

1/3 What Musk is really referring to here is, of course “race” - that construct that served to define the hierarchies of wealth & power structured by modern colonialism. Like other far right racists though, he uses the word “culture” as a seemingly less pernicious synonym.

Seriously, this hyper concentration of wealth is one of the top problems facing the country -- the maldistribution is worse than it was before the Great Depression, and their political influence is even greater than it was then thanks to Citizens United etc.
The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

Sunday reading: What is “Un-American”?

We must acknowledge America’s history of state authoritarianism and racial violence – but also dare to claim its aspirational tradition of egalitarian democracy.

Let’s Make MAGA un-American, finally.

"Trump’s unhinged, hateful remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast don’t disgust his evangelical supporters because they share his seething cultural resentment and endless persecution complex. For them, his open contempt for their mutual enemies resonates more than a true sermon."
Trump is clowning his evangelical base
He's not even bothering to pretend anymore.
