DHS this week:
“it’s a disgusting smear to say there is racial profiling going on!”

DHS last week:
(*blatant racial profiling*)

Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here.

Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children
Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

I know there's a lot to keep up with but someone has ALREADY been killed by ICE in Chicago, its not a theoretical question, and folks are dying in ICE detention and being disappeared constantly, when you say "someone's gonna get killed" youre actually washing the blood from their hands 😘✌️

The illegal USAID cuts are the thing that broke me

A complete dismantling of constitutional governance in order to facilitate crimes against humanity

What Trump, Musk, the Supreme Court, etc have done to these families is beyond cruel, beyond heartbreaking, beyond unforgivable

Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

This from @jessicatarlov.bsky.social may be the most efficient use of 76 seconds of Fox News airtime I've ever seen.

Jessica Tarlov: I'm stunned that Republicans want to draw attention to this because... the senators who were part of this investigation are not just random names that he picked off a list, but people who were named in Jack Smith's charging documents for trying to turn over a free and fair election.

Giving thanks today that I have ordered my life such that I do not have to spend time with Pam Bondi or anyone remotely similar to her.

a real weird phenomenon lately is how much the Left is derided for "moral clarity" -- it's insistence that some thing are JUST WRONG, no matter what, and that NUANCE isn't allowed, &c -- because I swear to god it was only ten years ago when everyone hated the Left because of moral *relativism*.

ICE is doing a hell of a lot of harm in the Chicago area *right now.* I don’t mean to trivialize the national guard stuff, it absolutely is an irresponsible escalation, but the guard-centric convo around this really does understate what’s going on without any guardsmen.

Everytime I listen to Stephen Miller I think of this one angry nerdy bitter kid I went to high school with who used to have just one line in his AIM profile, the Radiohead lyric:

“When I am king, you will be first against the wall”

The year is 2003.

17-year-old Stephen Miller is sitting in the back of a school bus talking about torture, as in “Torture is a celebration of human life and dignity."

Miller looks directly into the camera and describes the torturing Iraqis in gruesome detail, as his peers laugh uncomfortably.

@joyannreid.bsky.social came through with the supercut of Kirk's vitriolic statements about Black people. Everyone who says, "I didn't agree with everything he said," must be made to explain what they did agree with.

It’s remarkable. You can assign current names to her 90 year old pseudonyms.

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later.
