ICE is a terrorist group, it's that simple. If they haven't been in your area and you haven't seen how they deliberately target elementary schools, landscaping crews, and tradesmen - i.e. people known in their communities as not being a threat to anyone - kindly feel free to shut the fuck up.
Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

Mathematically, why tf would the 49ers go for 1? The marginal value of being up by 5 over 4 is non-existent, while 6 vs 4 is much better.

the best antidote to blackpilling is remembering that every video you see of an ICE thug abusing their power was recorded by an American who volunteered to put themselves in harm's way for the sake of people they've likely never met and never will
/2 In light of that, I am in awe and deep respect of the people who are still showing up to monitor the ICE Gestapo, protect and defend their neighbors, do whatever they can to hold ICE to account and call out their lawlessness. What incredible bravery.

I am truly humbled to have the support of Jan Schakowsky in this campaign. She is an icon, a fierce and fearless warrior for our communities and a true friend.

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Apparently there's some young person whose musical nom de plume is CAKE, like that wasn't already the name of the greatest band in the world.

Twice in 2025 Tidal has gotten my hopes up with a notification that CAKE has a new album and twice it's been some newfangled non-CAKE dogshit.

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests.

So, best we share all the footage we can here!

This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu.

I read the words of our Palestinian colleague Rasha Abou Jalal from Gaza and I feel such shame that the world is allowing this to happen; that the U.S., under Democrats and Republicans, facilitates this campaign of terror.
