I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.

Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.

We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.

This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.

He’s never ridden a train and he’s counting on the fact that the viewers of this swill haven’t either.

Right? I think I went 26 in a 25mph school zone once when I was dropping off my kid and I had lights and sirens immediately. My poor son was traumatized…🤣

Bloomington police announce arrests in sex trafficking bust: "Rashad Johnson out of Maple Grove. This is the most disturbing arrest that we've had here. He is a backgrounder for ICE, Homeland Security, and federal agencies."

"Due process is not a courtesy extended at the government’s convenience. Due process is the condition that makes custody lawful in the first place... When liberty is restrained without a meaningful opportunity to be heard, the Constitution’s promise is not delayed. It is denied."
Another memorable ruling out of West Virginia, where Judge Goodwin — a Clinton appointee — excoriates the treatment of ICE detainees.

"This is not what civil enforcement looks like in a humane system of government under law."

I don’t want to see them, I want the victims to have their dignity. But I want someone I trust to find out the perpetrators and bring them to justice.

I have never had buffalo wings. They don’t even sound good to me.

Give me breaded chicken bites with Sheetz’s boom boom sauce any day.

This is a tax on you.

You paid $1,000 more in a tax because of Trump.

What this ad doesn’t show: Ring also rolled out facial recognition for humans. I wrote to them months ago about this. Their answer? They won’t ask for your consent.

This definitely isn’t about dogs—it’s about mass surveillance.

Former coworker (ex military) posting on FB about how Trump is going after “illegals” and protesters are anti-Americans who don’t respect law enforcement. Anyone who thinks the base is turning on him is in the same kind of bubble this guy is in.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

This is a remarkable @nytimes.com split screen:

A huge 3,526 word + photos profile on Sen Britt who "can't stop thinking about the boy ICE detained"

But Rep Jaoquin Castro- who actually got Liam Ramos out of detention & back home- gets no interview, no pix, just 116 words inside a story. WOW.

She apparently aged out.

I mean, I’ve dated narcissists, too. You are the center of their world and feel like a million bucks, and there’s something weird in the back of your mind but maybe, just maybe…there’s a future.

Until you realize it was all a lie, you mean nothing to them, and never did.

Oh. My…
When a whistleblower’s lawyer gives you a deadline and cites the statute, that is not posturing. That is the last stop before Congress. And they just pulled the trigger.
