A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

So, what happens?
The United States “helps protestors” and Iran retaliates…and then what? This isn’t “support for freedom.” It’s regime change language with a historical record of getting civilians killed and destabilizing regions. He’s starting WW3 and it’s all for oil.

BREAKING: Massive Crowds of Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, Minnesota as we speak. The tide is turning. America is Fed Up.

Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.

Americans are filling the streets & proving that this movement is bigger than any one city or march.

Every sign, chant and raised fist is a promise: we will not normalize fear or violence

A different future is being built by ordinary people refusing to look away. #iceoutforgood

Best bet for Europe is to continue threatening the Silicon Valley tycoons and broligarchs with economic boycotts.

Go after the money. Hurt their bottom line.

The only thing that might avert war.

These people still prefer the color green over white.

Hit them where it hurts them - boycotts can work
Want to Stop ICE? Go After Its Corporate Collaborators.
ICE can’t function without help from the private sector. So we should force the private sector to stop helping.

Listening to Jake this Sunday:

Steve Miller is a fucking fascist. He is an outrageous asocial nutcase. He always was. He wouldn’t be tolerated in any other admin. It says boatloads about Trump fucking cabinet that Trump keeps Miller on.

Since 2000, political donations from the richest 100 Americans have increased nearly 140x.

They collectively spent over $1B in 2024, amounting to 1 in every 13 dollars spent during the election.

Is it any wonder why so many regular people feel like they no longer have a voice?

Zohran Mamdani has called for a boycott of Starbucks until the company can bargain a fair contract with its striking workers. We joined members of the mayor-elect's team on the Starbucks picket line in NYC.

Trump ordering the FBI to investigate U.S. Senators over a video reminding military members they don’t have to follow illegal orders kind of validates the original point, doesn’t it?

The vicious cycle of monopolization:

1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

When you have a lawless criminal as commander-in-chief, and a falling-down drunk Fox News host as SecDef, reminding service members to only follow legal orders should probably be done every day. Mark Kelly is a hero. 🇺🇸

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.
