I thought about this a lot when we were all pushing to get kilmar abrego garcia released. I'm glad we got him back but literally NO ONE should be sent to CECOT. They should have ALL been brought back.

Never accept an inch. Never accept their framing. Bring everyone back and abolish DHS.
The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Hey, this Bovino thing is a pathetic attempt to make all these horrors the fault of one guy, and it would be a serious, serious crisis if people fell for it. ICE needs to be abolished, bc this - terror, murder - are what it exists for. Nothing else. This is just an attempt to mollify us. Stay angry

they definitely have not stopped over-investing in a faux revolutionary liberal political narrative as told by an author with abhorrent personal politics. they’re just doing it for one piece now

So when people don't vote for Newsom, or at least don't want to, just remember how he's handling everything at this moment
Gavin Newsom had Ben Shapiro on his podcast 10 days ago where he was cozying up to Shapiro. Newsom also said that ICE aren't terrorists, walking back his claim from days prior and also said there is no genocide in Palestine.

the right wing does not depend upon being logically consistent in their beliefs. they don't need to be, it's inconvenient. pointing it out to them isn't helping us or them, it's wasting energy. please, PLEASE understand this

it is absolutely crucial that we do not get dragged down into good/bad protestor dichotomies. it is the easiest way to do the feds work for them by dividing our own coalition into rival factions. different situations call for different tactics. some of which will be shocking to polite society.

to wit: white supremacists are allowed to carry guns to enforce their rule but the government can murder those opposed to white supremacy if they have a gun. there is no contradiction for them.
“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

the second amendment exists to protect the irregular (vigilante) enforcers of white supremacy. it does not exist to protect the victims of white supremacy. this was demonstrated with philando castile in 2016

When the CBP or ICE agent that Stephen Miller is trying to get killed dies, it is extremely important that every member of the media be told, repeatedly and loudly, that they wanted this and that people called it out in advance.

He could have said this months ago, but people had to die. He could listened to voters, experts, other members of his caucus, but instead he waiting until people were already dead.....he ignored every warning and waited until the flood was up to his chest before saying "better plug that leak."
🚨 SCHUMER just now: “Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included.”

The pain and the outrage is correct and just and I'm glad everyone can see and understand it here, and this is also already what BLM was, if you argued for training, police reform or body cams instead of abolition this is what you sounded like, this is why people were so mad at you

remember that when Israel bombed the first hospital in Gaza, they dissimulated, lied, and argued, expending tremendous resources to "complicate" the "narrative." a month later, it was the new normal

If they are doing this to white people in broad daylight imagine what they are doing to non-white people in detention facilities.
