Sometimes you have to say it out loud to appreciate how dire t all is:

The president just openly declared his plans to steal the midterm elections — in an interview with the former number two person at the FBI.
Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks.

They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

I cannot stress enough to people who are not from Minneapolis that the news you have seen in the past week about things calming, and messaging from our electeds at *every level higher than City Council* that local agencies will protect us... That's all fucking LIES.
Hennepin County Sheriff Dawanna Witt needs to stop assisting ICE. It’s very clear that the sheriff’s department has been harassing, intimidating, arresting and coming out in force to assist ICE. They have been using force against neighbors who are working to protect our immigrant neighbors. 2/

look, ive said this before, its fine to be a coward. i just refuse to pretend its a virtue.
protest opsec discourse is so dumb because if you actually thought the government was going to hunt you down and arrest you (or worse) for protesting you should delete all your socila media and flee the country immediately because you can't win by protesting anymore at that point

If only we’d had a sign back in 2016 that Trump had authoritarian impulses that his supporters loved. Like, I don’t know, enthusiastic chants of “Lock her up” aimed at his opponent, or something hypothetical like that.

Tom Suozzi looks fucking terrified when he is confronted by actual human beings who want to hold him accountable for his votes that have lead to people being murdered in the streets.

Something I haven't seen anyone point out yet is that he was very very angry and STILL didn't pull his gun out. Gotta say, not assassin/domestic terrorist behavior.
Yes - until you see it firsthand, it’s hard to understand how upsetting and enraging it is to see these guys operate in your community. They are dressed for war, they beat civilians up, they openly antagonize neighbors, they’re masked, they carry people away. Everyone is livid at every scene.
This video clip also demonstrates that Alex Pretti was made very angry by the brutal, lawless violence of the DHS. That makes him just like me, and a large part of America.

Until he was shot 10 times in the back.

Also, READ THE ARTICLE. There was no evidence this was “a hit” or “an assassination.” DHS was collecting the names of protesters, of which he was one. I really can’t overemphasize how irresponsible it is to spin up conspiracy theories around this.
CNN is reporting that federal authorities may have been collecting information and "documenting details" about Alex Pretti before killing him on Saturday, and that officers tackled him a week earlier. www.cnn.com/2026/01/27/u...
