Federal immigration officers have repeatedly used lethal or near-lethal force in ways that appear to violate their own published policies or general policing guidelines. The pattern is so consistent that it signals that published policies have been superseded by unpublished ones encouraging violence
Broken bones, burning eyes: How Trump's DHS deploys 'less lethal' weapons on protesters

There has to be a cost to consciously and actively identifying oneself as hostis humani generis.

And we'll call them *jazz hands* Median voters
Good news: there's no durable majority for fascism

Bad news: we are locked in a life or death struggle against fascism and our victory depends on people with less understanding of how the world functions than my 14-month old
New poll: In 2024, low-engagement voters went for Trump over Harris by 11 percentage points. But now they disapprove of the way he's handling the presidency by 13. They have moved 25 points against Trump — 2x as large as the shift for high-knowledge voters www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trump-lost...

“Under his leadership…”

Boy, CSIS really isn’t even trying to hide that it has become a government mouthpiece. Also this week saw “analysis” of the Project Vault stockpiling initiative that was very obviously talking points laundered by the administration.

Note the framing here:

It’s “Democrats have refused to fund” DHS and not “Republicans refused to prohibit face masks” or “the two parties could not agree on how to reform the agency.”

we had to do the whole 'concentration camps and death camps are different and concentration camps are *very very bad*' thing eight years ago with the mass detention of Uighurs. discourse just keeps depressingly repeating.
I would love to have a discussion with Jake Tapper about the history of the term "concentration camp" and its usage. It would do so much good if he would actually address this head on.
God the gall of @jaketapper.bsky.social lecturing that Minneapolis small business owner about the meaning of the word "concentration camp" while people are being crammed into poorly resourced buildings by the thousands and shuttled off never to be heard from again

It's going to be wild when Paxton gets the GOP nomination in Texas, loses in the general, and the Dems miraculously grab a 51-49 lead in the Senate in November . . .

. . . and then Fetterman switches parties in December.

They want complete autonomy from the Church while enjoying the shelter and the resources of the Church.

They need to choose: Christ or Lefebvre.
Rome is being much more lenient than I would but watch this space, it won’t be enough for the SSPX

Although Mangione is a moron who has changed nothing, what he has done is convinced leftists that he is a leftist - when literally not one thing about him would even suggest that kind of ideological stance.
Liberals are too chickenshit to stand up to fascism. Thats what makes them liberals.

Leftists on the other hand...

You can’t have a rules based order if the American navy is killing unarmed fishermen to appease milller, so maybe one fight at a time guys.
You can’t have a rules-based order and let the PRC turn a democracy into the East Xinjiang Gulag. Pick one.

“DHS is shutting down because it refuses to obey the law” is excellent framing
DHS is shutting down because it refuses to obey the law. They are tear-gassing schools, killing American citizens, and disappearing legal immigrants. Democrats shouldn’t fund an out of control ICE.

Currently federal employees who are delinquent on taxes can be removed from their positions. But we should add a rule about owing child support or alimony. That will take care of 2/3 of DHS.

They hate him who reproves in the gate,
and they abhor him who speaks the truth.
Therefore because you trample upon the poor
and take from him exactions of wheat,
you have built houses of hewn stone,
but you shall not dwell in them.

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.
