@briantylercohen.bsky.social: Should ICE continue to exist in any form?

@rokhanna.bsky.social: No. And that should be the answer across the Democratic Party.

It is a rogue agency killing American citizens. Tear it down.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

Another pet peeve: Under Trump, the term "diplomat' has come to mean unqualified, ignorant hack.

It is like the way "patriot" has come to mean anti-American, pro-fascist bigot.

Orwellian double-speak is the official language of the Trump Administration.

I'm not going to ask if you're doomscrolling. Everything is hard right now. But you still need to eat some food, drink a glass of water, as well as time to rest and recover.

Try not to stay up too late tonight. Sleep deprivation will make everything you need to do harder, including helping others.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

If Cortez Masto won't vote for it, I think that means the DHS funding bill is effectively dead in the senate.

Journalists aren’t supposed to report “both sides.”
They are supposed to report the truth.

DHS is not telling the truth. Stop reporting their lies.

Honestly if Denmark/E.U./NATO offered to give him a symbolic gold crown and scepter as honorary King of Greenland in lieu of selling it he would accept in a heartbeat and we could just end this insanity

Hitler framed every annexation as “security”: Austria & the Sudetenland to make borders safe, Czechoslovakia as strategic defense, Poland to remove threats. Each seizure was sold as protection & stability. Europe sees what is coming. We need the GOP to see it too, or a lot of people are going to die

Never forget that billionaires spend billions to convince you that voting doesn't matter. Don't help them. Voting isn't the ONLY thing we can do, but it is the most powerful check on the executive. "Don't bother voting because there'll be no free elections" is oligarch propaganda.

Only trump inflicted chaos and cruelty on immigrants and citizens alike with his untrained, ignorant Gestapo Proud Boys. The orange, decrepit sack of shit is terrorizing Americans so we won't have time to hold him accountable for pedophilia, rape, abuse of power and profiting from the Presidency.

One of the news items very overlooked today is that something historic happened in Syria. It became the first Arab country to recognise Kurdish as a national language, Kurds as a national minority, institute laws protecting Kurds, and undo the horrible Assad crime who stripped Kurds of citizenship.

Democracies are as vulnerable to the paradox of tolerance as anything else is.

Their refusal to protect themselves from creeping naziism, regarding it as electorally legitimate, has led us to where we are.

Legitimise the idea that the far right has no valid place in electoral politics.

Wow! Yay! The Senate just rejected Trump’s proposed science cuts, voting 82–15 to boost funding for NOAA, NASA, and the NSF. The bill already passed the House 397–28. Strong bipartisan support for science still exists.
