It's another beautiful day to say fuck ICE. And fuck CBP. And the white nationalist DHS that deploys them. And the administration of overgrown racist toddlers that have given them free rein. And every single person and institution that supports them.

in 2017 a popular twitter game was to type a partial phrase then see what your phone auto-completes it with.

this proved so popular that it is now the only business model in the US.

Hegseth (boorishly): Russia's cool. NATO sucks. Your security problem, Europe, is you're too brown and gay.

Vance (condescendingly): Russia's cool. Your security problem is you're too brown and Muslim.

Rubio (politely): Who cares about Russia. Your problem is you're not white or Christian enough.

This is wild.

41 DUI arrests by a Tennessee trooper. All dismissed. 22 drivers were completely sober.

He “resigned”. No explanation. No accountability. No apology. His personnel file doesn’t even mention the cases.

Police departments shouldn’t be in the business of shielding corrupt officers.

The problem is that we have created a world where you can amass so much wealth that there are no consequences to making a string of the most evil AND ALSO dumb choices imaginable, over and over again.

And people will look at your toddler level reasoning and nod and go, "12d chess. Evil genius."

With their ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ money, there are some corporations that will do all they can to keep that cash cow going.

As with war and 90% of the horrible things we do to fellow humans, we should always ask who stands to benefit financially.
CoreCivic executives receive cash incentives beyond their base salaries, based on company earnings.

ICE revenues more than doubled in 2025.

Patrick Swindle is now CoreCivic CEO. He is heavily incentivized to grow ICE revenues -- as are executives and investors.

It's unchartered, but we can see the terrain: the territory ahead includes masked secret police taking people to concentration camps but not new vaccines. That's our reward for a system in which fewer than 20 people, all of them deranged and malicious, control over $3 trillion.
The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

If you want to piss someone off who is hyper anti-vaxx, anti-tax, etc. just encourage them to go form their own separate society with people who agree with them.

A big unstated assumption for a lot of selfish people is that they want the benefits of living in a society with none of the obligations.

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women."

Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration.

It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women.

European Parliament Votes Overwhelmingly For "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women"
The resolution, though nonbinding, is a significant shot at those who seek to erode transgender rights on the continent.

At the time, Kristi Noem called this ”an attempted murder of federal law enforcement.”

And now?

Charges dropped.

New evidence is “materially inconsistent with the allegations.”
