As a gay man who lost count long ago of the number of people just in my circle who we lost to AIDS, and who lived our lives hoping that experts like Dr. Fauci at the CDC would use their knowledge to make it end, to now watch this administration destroy the CDC is simply beyond unforgivable. #Maddow

ICE in Burnsville, MN followed a family home, broke down their door, and abducted 4 of them at gunpoint including the parents of a 7 year old and the husband of a pregnant woman. All of this occurred without a warrant for a home owned by a US citizen. (12/6/25)

So when the #AmericanGestapo says their arrests involve people committing crimes, they are technically correct. But the criminals are in ICE, not Home Depot parking lots or street taco stands.
Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?
A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.

Trump never faced legal charges for his #1 role in the Jan 6th insurrection to overturn the vote certification. Got off scot free. The SCOTUS, instead, found it fit to reward him with immunity powers no other president has ever had. Now, the right-wing "justices" want to give him even more.

If SCOTUS tears down the 14th Amendment, there can be no moderate position for ANY Democrat. If they tear it down the Constitution of the United States, SCOTUS should be deemed lawless and the Democrats must go to war with lawlessness.
The fact that SCOTUS is going to tell us who's an American and who's not is THE REASON why the Democrats must stop playing around. It's time to defend immigration as a universal good and in terms of liberty and justice for all.
Accepting rightwing lies as if they're true is how we got here.
