Anti-Immigration is Fascist

Continuing from the other site. I started this thread as a way to see the evolution of the rhetoric and perceptions of MAGA/GOP on Immigration policy.

"It’s comical that this big, brutal warrior would get on the stand to say that he literally felt assaulted by a sandwich exploding on his uniform. It’s more comical, though, that Dunn’s attorney then showed Larimore a photo of the sandwich on the ground. Wrapped. Not exploded."

There’s no opt-out, no warrant requirement, and almost no oversight. In a nation built on personal freedom, the idea that the government can identify, track, and store your data simply by pointing a phone at your face should alarm everyone citizens and non-citizens alike.

I ❤️ this ebike rebate program but note that it's for everyone in Alameda County so not only Berkeleyans can apply!

An Contra Costa County ebike rebate program that's been available for even longer is here too:

Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.

Following Hurricane Melissa's devastation, Jamaica’s decade-long effort to build financial resilience will be tested. Its $150 million catastrophe bond, triggered by a storm’s low pressure and path, will provide quick relief. Jamaica’s model may serve as a guide for other climate-vulnerable nations.

oh just straight up gutter racism!
So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."

New in PN: The triumph of bullshit

"We’re a long way from 'covfefe' and tumescent hurricanes Sharpied on a weather map. This is an era of lies as policy, where government priorities are based on right-wing conspiracy theories and fear-mongering."
The triumph of bullshit
Internet conspiracy theories are now official government policy.

I really do think it would be powerful to see signs like this popping up everywhere, akin to ghost bikes. Show where ICE was stopped but also show locations where ICE disappeared people.
So proud of my city. 👊❤️

* Continuing to fight the "Chicago is a hellhole" narrative: I saw this because I biked a few miles to a lovely chocolate cafe on a gorgeous fall day where the leaves were starting to turn golden.

It’s been really disheartening to see the things people say about those who use SNAP. Many seem to have little understanding of why the program exists in the first place.

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP.

A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify.

I’m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

Angus: This is a guy who showed an AI video of himself dumping diarrhea on his own citizens. So the fact that he’s freaking out because we showed a video that just had Ronald Reagan speaking shows he’s not trustworthy.
