Philly DA is clear about ICE committing crimes.
“I’ll charge you with those crimes, you’ll be arrested, you’ll stand trial, you’ll be convicted, whether it’s in state or federal court and you’ll do your time because DT cannot pardon you for a state court conviction. “
This is the energy we need….

with the donorcrats in control, it's less an opposition party than a consolidation party
democrats will now sieze this moment to run surreptitious damage control on behalf of the regime, plead for bipartisanship and moving forward as americans together, unified, and triangulate us into a position that's just to the right of where we were the day before Renee Good was executed

yeah, Thatcher's comment very much sprang to mind when I was posting on the antisocial-ism of anti-socialism earlier
Margaret Thatcher famously declared that there is no such thing as society, and it's long past due for society to push back against these ghouls who are unprepared for it.
MAGA is defined by its total lack of a theory of mind for its enemies, and the fact that DHS and ICE still haven't wrapped their brains around the fact that their opponents also are able to highly effectively use the Internet to message, organize, and communicate really highlights that.

This is so important because A) she did it in response to Benedict Wong, a far more prominent actor, saying he's listening to the audiobooks a lot and B) did it unprompted, she specifically stopped the fluff interview to draw the comparison to the themes of their film and support trans people.
You’ve got to love how actress Kelly Marie Tran, one of the most harassed people ever to be on the internet, still leapt up to defend trans people in a recent interview. No one would blame her for keeping her head down and shutting up forever but she will NOT and I admire her for it ⭐
Star Wars actor says ‘trans rights are human rights’ when asked about Harry Potter
Kelly Marie Tran said ‘trans rights are human rights’ when the topic of JK Rowling's Harry Potter series was mentioned in an interview.

Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.”

This judge does the thing quoting the Declaration of Independence at the Trump regime then adds for good measure: "Observing human behavior confirms that for some among us, the perfidious lust for unbridled power & the imposition of cruelty in its quest know no bounds & are bereft of human decency."

Mamdani is a revelation in US politics because for most of my lifetime every Democrat has internalised the message that they must be apologetic for being a public servant. They communicate within the Republican frame that government is implicitly a Bad Thing.
Zohran is proud of his role, dammit.

Mamdani made a 90 sec. video discussing when and how the roads would be plowed, crediting the workforce that makes it possible, reminding owners they must shovel, reminding trash may be delayed, saying there’d be a decision about school by noon, and telling kids it’s fine to hit him with snowballs.

Hey—Hot Tip/Nth-thousandth Reminder: There are people who actively seek to destabilize and destroy consensus reality and knowledge-making for their own gain, whether through "AI" or any number of other propaganda processes and tools, and you shouldn't let them anywhere near power, ever, ever again.
The White House posted an AI-altered picture of an ICE protester under arrest, made to look like she was sobbing remorsefully.
The episode reveals something deeply disturbing about the unrestrained sadism of MAGA and this moment in American politics.

If I buy a biro, Bic doesn't care if I use it to write a masterpiece or snort bath salts. The sale is made.
If the AI bros can add a user to a spreadsheet as proof they should get more venture capital, that's the end result as far as they're concerned.
But at least with Bic you get a biro.
