Welcome to the USA of 2025, where condemning genocide is deemed antisemitism and can get you deported, but building concentration camps and calling bankers ‘Shylocks’ doesn’t get condemned by the news media at all.

Americans shouldn’t have to fund billions for ICE agents, detention centers, deportation and kidnapping bonuses, just because the @housegop.bsky.social is too lazy to write immigration legislation.
If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029:

- $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion
- $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million
- $8 billion for hiring/retention
- Billions more.

Enough! This is exactly why ICE should be required to identify themselves.

If ICE looks like criminals and thugs, they should be regarded as such.

Because paying zero in corporate taxes isn’t enough.
Republicans want to cut Medicaid and SNAP—so that this dude can have a tax cut.

No exception for rape or incest. They did, at a minimum, exclude the rapist from being able to sue his victim.
BREAKING: #HB575 passes #LaSen committee after last minute amendments added.

It lets exes, in-laws & random people sue over someone else’s abortion and targets anyone who may have helped.
