Apparently the Trump administration now has a ‘MAGA-style slush fund’ to fund far right causes across Europe.

2028 primary season is going to be interesting. The candidate that deliberately takes strategic steps to diminish and marginalize X will have my attention (this all goes for all Dems running in 2026).

Ten countries have launched investigations related to the released Epstein files.

Norway, UK, France, Lithuania, Latvia, Sweden, Australia, North Macedinia, Turkey, Poland.

Conspicuously absent is the United States, the epicenter of this scandal.

We know why.

Anyone that runs ICE concentration camp and does this should find him self arrested and in jail for minimum of 1 year and up to 10 years if this is a frequent violation.

Just heard back from DHS on why they abruptly expedited Ramos' asylum hearing:

“These are regular removal proceedings. This is standard procedure and there is nothing retaliatory about enforcing the nation’s immigration laws. He will receive full due process."

(This is not standard procedure.)

a lot of ex-mil people on here who served in the gwot have noted, correctly, that the stuff ice is doing would a) have gotten them killed and/or b) gotten them in a lot of trouble. war crimey stuff was correctly treated like war crimes etc
I spoke to @juliango.bsky.social about the imperial boomerang and how US war tactics abroad are being employed at home by ICE

"America’s cities are treated as colonial zones of conquest and imperial borderlands because that’s all ICE knows. If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail"
