I will never in my life understand why people think it's acceptable for people to be locked up, maimed, tortured, and possibly killed all because they crossed the border without filling out the appropriate forms or have the right paperwork... That's what it boils down to.

I always tell people that Trump wants to run America like Atlanta: a playground for a oligarchs and segregationists, where referendums can be annulled by decree, residents are more surveilled than any city on Earth, and dissenters get hit with RICO charges for the sin of handing out flyers
The legal and moral implications aside, I cannot image anyone looking at Georgia as a competitive midterm battleground and saying, “let’s bring the most unpopular elements of this Administration to the Atlanta Metro.”
U.S. Rep. Buddy Carter, R-Georgia, is calling for a greater ICE presence in Atlanta, citing what he calls the migrant crime problem here. Carter, who is running for the U.S. Senate, names 6 he calls the “worst of the worst” from the Homeland Security database of “illegal aliens.”

Democrats could act like a real opposition party, refusing to validate Trump malfeasance with votes, and setting up a shadow cabinet that regularly communicates how Democrats would be different. But nah.
It’s not only a majority of Democratic voters that hate this approach. US allies see it too.

The incredibly lukewarm Democratic response on Greenland is being noticed in Europe, incidentally.
Chuck Schumer not finding a stronger word than “quixotic” for Trump’s plan to seize Greenland has been name checked to me more than once.

But Americans who want to save the alliance with Europe must have no illusions about how bad a condition this transatlantic partnership is in.

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

Elites do not care about “democracy” except inasmuch as they support any system of social organization in which they personally are elites. Now that they’ve figured out they can maintain their elevated status without democracy, they will all shrug and go about their frictionless lives.

To be expected, our United airlines flight is delayed out of Dublin because of the US side/issues with air traffic control.
What’s not to be expected is they didn’t send me any email or text to let us know the flight was delayed 2.5 hours, so we found out as we arrived at the airport.
