The entirety of the AG’s remarks are worth a watch. They are excellent.
Ellison: "Enforcing federal immigration law and fighting fraud are just pretexts for this surge. The real reason is no secret -- Donald Trump and his administration have been targeting people, cities, and states that don't agree with them politically."

Renee Good’s last words were to ICE agent Jonathan Ross: “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Then Ross shot Renee three times in the face. As she was dying, his last words to her were: “Fucking bitch.” And JD Vance thought that exchange exonerated ICE. That says it all.

DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.”

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

More of this please.
Philadelphia sheriff Rochelle Bilal:

“No law enforcement professional wears a mask…No law enforcement professional shoots at a moving vehicle.

“What Trump’s private army is doing…is not only against legal law, but moral law.”

Vows to arrest agents on site who commit crimes.

Imagine being a human with a brain in Congress, having a judge candidate be able to answer this question and then say -“this guy has the stuff, I vote yea”. We are well past Idiocracy at this point.
Democrats will continue to vote for Republican judges (like this guy, who refused to say who won the 2020 election) until Democrats are punished for voting for Republican judges
Alexander Van Hook is confirmed 53-40 to be a District Judge of Western Louisiana. According to @senatepress.bsky.social, the Dems yeas are Dick Durbin (IL), Maggie Hassan (NH), Tim Kaine (VA), Amy Klobuchar (MN), Jeanne Shaheen (NH), and Peter Welch (VT). Angus King (I-ME) was also a yea.

As you listen to DHS and ICE offer their excuses and justifications for murdering an American mother in cold blood, a quickly-forgotten reminder from Chicago:

I’m old enough to remember when suggesting ignoring orders gets you threatened with demotion and slashing of your pension.
Rep. Wesley Hunt on Gov. Walz: "This guy's a beta and he has absolutely no idea what he's talking about. If he gives me an order, I would actually urge people to ignore it."

We are the shithole nation. From Caracas to Greenland to Minneapolis, we are the problem in the world, we are the source of the tragedy, we are the affront to all human dignity. This is the United States now. We are the evil.
NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do."

“We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs.

Agree with this 100%. These gentleman are intelligent, direct and an asset for those that prefer to be reported to as adults.
As always, a far more thoughtful conversation facilitated by Velshi than anywhere else on network TV.

Velshi + Mehdi = a nice antidote to the sane-washing of other journalists.
Donald Trump’s fixation on Venezuela’s oil supply during yesterday’s news conference cut across many of the other critiques of Maduro. @mehdirhasan.bsky.social says “people who claim this isn't about oil, just need to listen to Donald Trump speaking." #Velshi

Donald Trump is a warmongering, neocolonial maniac. And the rest of the United States government has not the capacity nor the courage to address that reality.

How much are you going to pay doctors?

Which current hospitals get shut down ?

What happens if doctors opt out of the system ? Who is going to invest in new curative therapies. You ?

How much in taxes pr year do you think it's possible to collect if you took every penny from billionaires?
Half the amount that everyone currently pays could provide universal healthcare. Private health companies don’t need to exist. Eliminate them. And use your collective buying power and economies of scale to get it done. Every cent of their profit is healthcare denied.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.
