WE ARE NOT HERE TO DEBATE
WE ARE HERE TO DISMANTLE
Tear it down! Tear it down!
ICE's violence isn't unfortunate
IT'S INTENTIONAL, IT'S DEADLY
Defund ICE! Defund the police!
No reform — ABOLISH THE BEAST

We rarely get to see the full "Tank Man" video of the brave Chinese citizen who did his best to prevent the continuing massacre of his neighbors at Tiananmen Square, June 5, 1989.

A must listen/watch interview with the US former ambassador to Denmark. The man doesn’t mince his words and has a lot to say about the current situation. Again, awesome work by Ben Meiselas @meidastouch.com.

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

It would not surprise me if ICE ends up killing Episcopalian clergy, sadly. Episcopalian ministers go pretty hard in the paint for civil rights.

The story of Jonathan Daniels, an Episcopalian seminary student, pushing Ruby Sayles out of the way of a KKK shotgun blast in Alabama comes to mind.
At last night’s candlelight vigil for Renee Nicole Good, Bishop Rob Hirschfeld of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire announced he had asked the clergy of the diocese to get their affairs in order and to make sure they have their wills written ...,

I am moving forward with impeachment articles against the DHS Secretary Noem.

Secretary Noem’s unlawfulness and dangerous leadership can't be ignored.

We owe it to our democracy to persist, despite the seemingly overwhelming odds against us.

Will any military leader, Republican, or corporate titan who cares about something, anything, other than money, power and white supremacy, step up and say, "No," to Trump as he destroys America and the world?

Putin’s hand in this is clear
They want it formally dead, but NATO is already functionally dead as a geopolitical reality. Even if he backs down (wouldn't bet on it), there's no going back from sending European capitals into a spiraling panic that the US is seriously about to invade one of them. You can't unring that bell.

Well this is f-d up. Turns out Ross was with CBP in El Paso during a time period when officers were often putting themselves in the path of moving vehicles, “justifying” the use of deadly force. Links to the report and story about Ross’s background in the comments below.
His training kicked in

Jon Ross was stationed in El Paso, Texas from 2007 to 2015. The El Paso border patrol office was under review in 2010 to 2012 because they intentionally stood in front of vehicles to justify shooting. There were 62 accounts of border patrol officer standing in front of vehicles and shooting

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

If anyone blockaded the U.S., launched a military operation to make an arrest on U.S. soil, let alone seized our natural resources, and killed civilians in the process, we'd consider it an act of war.

Exactly.
The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same
