To clarify, I fully support Ilhan Omar being ready to rock that dude's shit (it's a good lesson in what happens when someone oversteps) I just just know how my BW friends are TIRED and I don't want us always celebrating them as fierce when bad shit happens, give them money and support REGARDLESS

the reason I'm so heated right now is Ilhan Omar has been thrown to the wolves so many times by the Democratic establishment for saying the things the Dems are finally, YEARS LATER starting to say.

They've let Rep Omar take a lot of heat and have not used their voices enough to defend her

I don't want to celebrate how Ilhan Omar was ready to throw down. Tired of valorizing Black women as fighters, that dude should have been stopped and stomped out before he got close to her.

YOU! Yes, I'm talking directly to you right now. You want to read this book. I got to read it last year and it is FREAKIN' FANTASTIC. I devoured the whole thing in two nights. It's the feel-good-creepy-coming-of-age-horror novel you never knew you needed in your life, but *you need it in your life*!
It's release day for I Will Kill Your Imaginary Friend for $200! It exists now as an item in the world. It should be at your local bookstore. If it's not, if your local bookstore doesn't stock the best books, I see no reason why they should exist. You know what I mean.

Not a single person in a single position of leadership in national politics cares whatsoever about Islamophobia, anti-Arab sentiment or anti-Somali sentiment. Just crazy stuff.

There's no ICE accountability without ending qualified immunity.

They're murdering people. There won't be justice for the lives they've stolen, but there must be accountability.

My bill with @markey.senate.gov would ensure families can sue the agents murdering their loved ones.

there we go
Amid growing calls for the abolition of ICE, Rep. Delia Ramirez is calling for the entire DHS to be dismantled. Highlighting how much experience the officers who killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti had, Ramirez said, “DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.”
House Democrat Says Abolishing ICE Isn’t Enough — DHS Must Go, Too
“The problem isn’t ‘training.’ DHS was built to violate our rights,” said Rep. Delia C. Ramirez.

@democrats.org

Could you please take note of the work being done here by Jason Chavez? Because this is what your voters want. Not some wishy washy, congenial, let’s all work together nonsense. We don’t want Republican light. We don’t want reform. We want fight and backbone and abolish ICE.
Dear neighbor, It is not the time to let your guard down, nor is it the time to stop organizing.

While Bovino will be leaving Minneapolis along with some U.S. Border Patrol agents, there is still no specific plan that has been communicated to the public. 1/

I say this with every ounce of respect that you deserve.

Get. Fucked.

Abolish ICE

nice argument, unfortunately I have already depicted myself as a squared-up Ilhan Omar and you as a collapsing sewer ogre

@freedcproject.bsky.social is coming strong, asking people to call Congress to demand
NO ON ALL APPROPRIATIONS until:
* The One Big Brutal Bill's $170B for DHS is clawed back
* The Senate investigates the ICE/CBP murders
* Miller and Noem are removed
* DC given control of the DC National Guard
Tell Congress to side with DC — Free DC

This is why it’s so important to document and observe. Take the observer training if it’s available near you. Even if you don’t plan to do it regularly. Knowing what to do if you happen upon a kidnapping as you are going about your day may make a huge difference for someone.

I don’t think people intend to do this when they say “don’t do the Nazi comparisons” but while there is a homegrown history in the US and a population (which I am a part of) directly impacted by that, there are a lot of families of people impacted by the Holocaust here (also me) and they count

It’s about fucking time! I hope more families do the same.

It’s terrible this happened to them. I hope that they get justice.
Breaking NBC:

Family members of two Trinidadian men who were killed in a U.S. boat strike in October have sued the U.S. government — accusing it of wrongful death and extrajudicial killings.

The lawsuit is the first of its kind to be filed against the Trump admin.

Listen to Jessie.
Dems are not trying to save America from fascism, they’re trying to figure out how to regain power, and often becoming more conservative in order to try to do so. Buttigieg is a clear exp in how he has thrown trans ppl under the bus while also maintaining civility assimilationist politics.
January 27, 2026 at 4:57 PM
All of this!! Call your Senators! They are coalescing around 5 bs “reforms” that do nothing to make us safer, completely disregard their base, and most of the rest of the country, and they are to the right of ppl like Bill Kristol, Laura Ingraham, Rand Paul’s staff, etc. Abolish ICE.
Good morning friends! Some things to remember when you call your senators today:
1. Renee Good's killer is still at large and has not faced justice
2. Alex Pretti's murderers are still at large, unnamed and still working on our dime.
3. 35 people died in ICE custody last year. 35 shattered families

Can the Dems just be the party of Immigration is great actually! Fuck off with that good ones bad one nonsense.
The basic fallacy in chasing votes by being "tough on immigration" is that the modal American's position on the issue is "Deport the Bad ones and keep the Good ones," and they alone know who is which, and that simply does not translate into workable policy. So this kind of gestapo stuff (1/2)
