One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

A very hard message to accept. But it is where we are, here in America. And it applies even to those who do not believe it.

On July 5, 1852, Frederick Douglass asked a question that still echoes: “What to the slave is the Fourth of July?” He exposed the deep hypocrisy of celebrating freedom in a nation built on bondage.
173 years later, that question still demands an answer.

You're seeing America kamikaze itself into a brick wall.
It didn't have to be this way.
But greed and racism, our two sins, will be our downfall.
Too many people still with their hands in the sand.

Alex Lawson to Rep. Miller-Meeks: Last time you spoke with us you lied to our face and said you wouldn’t vote for Medicaid cuts, but you’ve voted for the largest cuts in the history of the country.
Do you have any comment on the health care that 67,000 people in your district are going to lose?

As you assess the news about Trump’s flying bribe from Qatar, remember that if you view the Republican Party as a crime syndicate instead of a political movement, everything makes more sense.

Upon learning that your own mistake sent an innocent father to a brutal prison where he’s likely to be tortured, anyone with a shred of decency would be overcome with shame and fight like hell to get him back.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

I hope people realize that Trump is trying to make it illegal to criticize his regime.
They are trying to give themselves the ability to spy on, target, and arrest anyone who criticizes them. They want to end freedom of speech in America.
Let’s be clear about what they’re doing.
