I’ll usually follow back, but if you have zero posts and you almost immediately DM me, I’ll be ignoring you.
In 30 years time they’ll be making movies about ICE agents the same way they make movies about Nazis. Enjoy being the cultural villains of cinema, dickheads.

These Nazi ICE fucks will end miserable and alone, disowned by their children (the minority that aren’t tiny dick incels that is) and utterly despised by everyone else.
In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didn’t get to say goodbye.
Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization
It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

Hey fuckhead. The payroll is also a nice little database. That the next government will use to find you and jail you, you dumb piece of shit.
ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

TUR: This is the White House putting out AI images that are not memes, they are just manipulated without saying they're manipulated. How do you trust a White House when they're not being truthful like this?

MIKE LAWLER: I have not seen that image. But we've seen on both sides ...

I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that JD Vance tried to "soften" things in Minneapolis. He blamed the left for ICE violence and called the 5-year-old's father an "illegal alien" even though he's lawfully applying for asylum.

New piece from me:
newrepublic.com/article/2056...
Trump’s ICE Goons Detained a 5-Year-Old. Then JD Vance Made It Worse.
Much of the media is treating the vice president’s Minneapolis visit as an attempt to lower the temperature. If anything, he raised it.

How's that 'land of the free' shit going for you?
The Pentagon is lining up more than 1,500 troops, two defense officials tell NBC News, in case the president decides to invoke a 219-year-old law called the Insurrection Act.

#StarTrekStarfleetAcademy I have a feeling Kyle is going to be fun.

I'm enjoying Star Trek: Starfleet Academy for a number of reasons. Two of them are Holly Hunter's Nahla Ake, one of Trek's most unique captains in both style and character, and Tig Notaro's Jett Reno, who has absolutely found their place in this setting.

I don't care. I'm very excited about this.

What’s happening in the US is on every stupid fuck who voted for Donald Trump. They let a known crook and liar, a man with no moral core, appeal to their basest, meanest instincts and cowardly laziness, and in doing so allowed a nazi fanboy regime to trample over everyone. Never let them forget.

The sooner this unelected chamber of fucking chancers and leeches is done with, the better. Bodies like this are in dire need of an Indignitas to put the rest of us out of OUR miseries.

But it was always going to be. His backers don’t care. The aim was to dismantle the guardrails, install christo-fascist sympathizers in the courts and civil services and rig the system to hold on to power.

On the mountain above Davos, Switzerland, locals hauled 450 torches through snow to spell “NO KINGS” in fire as Trump arrived for the World Economic Forum. A direct shot at Trump and authoritarianism, staged by residents of a kingless country and planted high above the global elite as a warning.
