This type of thing where voters think their vote is just a nice little I'm mad button they can press instead of an actual serious responsibility they have infuriates me
Just saw a lady quoted in a local small town paper say she signed the separatist petition even though she doesn’t want to separate but wants to “send a message” and I’m just beside myself

Like this isn’t a fucking joke lady

Reviewing video from Fulton County elections raid.

Taken aback by the dismissive & sneering attitude from FBI agents toward the cop politely asking to see the warrant.

Looked him up: He's an immigrant w/ a doctorate in philosophy. His thesis? "Force by police officers toward African Americans."

So, first of all, of course it was Trump.

But even if they were telling the truth, "We give staffers who post videos of the Obamas as apes access to the agenda-setting, decree-sending, market-moving account of the president of the United States" is not the exculpatory statement they think it is.

“great replacement” is a white supremacist conspiracy theory that has been cited in NUMEROUS mass shootings including buffalo topps and el paso walmart

furthermore, what we are seeing in MN is a direct result of that hateful racist rhetoric manufacturing consent and democrats should be saying that
"That's just not true, as you well know" -- Sen. Chris Coons is a bit taken aback after CNBC's Joe Kernen pushes the great replacement theory during an interview

I’m not sure we’ve properly addressed how profoundly disturbing it is that America can largely shrug at the stashing of human beings in giant warehouses.

The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion.

In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose 29%.

🚨 New: We built a visual tracker of the warehouses ICE is targeting across the US.

Working off an idea from @actualkatherine.bsky.social, we’ve mapped active searches, canceled deals, and linked state property records.

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

I think often of the women in the Louis CK story—how they all left comedy and never went back, but he’s still going. It’s everywhere and it’s such a loss for them and for us—for things they’ll never make that we’ll never see.
the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

Just like with Kilmer Abrego Garcia, the biggest sin any targeted immigrant can commit is winning battles — legal or PR battles — against the government, and they just won’t let those losses go

Hey, remember that time I said that pointing out that AI is giving bad data to ICE is missing the point because ICE doesn't actually care if the data is good? Check out how right I am.
NEW: Records reviewed by WIRED show DHS’s facial recognition app (Mobile Fortify) isn’t designed to actually "verify" identity—despite DHS claims and its agents relying on its matches to support probable cause in the field.
ICE and CBP’s Face-Recognition App Can’t Actually Verify Who People Are

This is a crucial point. MAGA is mostly not made up of people who want to act as foot soldiers for a fascist regime, they want to watch someone else do that. They are above all consumers of content and their love for Trump is as someone who makes the fascism-themed content the crave.

DHS recruiters are hampered here by the fact that Trump's voters and strongest supporters are a) retirees b) in lucrative careers c) rural and exurban and not willing to me and d) think brownshirt gruntwork beneath them
theres only so many guys who love racism enough to put up with this shit and turnover Is high.

Also they’re only going to get more hated and by extension find recruiting and retention even more difficult
