Republicans will quote Martin Luther King Jr. today, while labeling the people speaking out as he did as “domestic terrorists,” and celebrating the state-sponsored violence against them.

Democrats should be the ultimate champions of immigration. “We won two world wars and invented the internet because immigrants get the job done.”
Instead they’ve squandered decades chasing the gop on “border security” shit.

Pope Leo has condemned ICE more than a dozen times—and wept after hearing migrants describe the terror they endured. Now, after ICE killed a widowed American mother, it’s clear: no Catholic can remain in ICE.
If you have the courage to take the first step, the Church will help you find better work.

Every Catholic Must Resign from ICE — Today
After a year of inhumane raids and papal rebukes, it’s clear no Catholic can in good conscience remain with ICE any longer.

JD Vance supports murdering American citizens. He's made that perfectly clear today. If he's willing to defend the murder of Renee Good, he would defend your murder, too.
JD Vance accuses the slain Renee Good of perpetrating "an attack on federal law enforcement, an attack on law and order, and attack on the American people"
"That woman was there to interfere with a legitimate law enforcement operation," he adds, repeatedly referring to her as "that woman"

This is a test for Democrats right now.
If you really want to grab the mantle of leadership and emerge as a frontrunner, you have to speak out forcefully and against ICE...
Right now.

Really worth watching this interview with a bystander who witnessed the ICE shooting in Minneapolis: "I'm pretty right-leaning. But seeing this, this is not how we're supposed to be doing things in America.”

Law enforcement officers CANNOT use deadly force against a fleeing person fleeing unless they have a reasonable belief that the individual poses a danger to others (e.g., they know the person is armed). If in vehicle, the person must be threatening to use deadly force with the vehicle or other means

Someone asked me to comment on the anniversary of Jan 6. I will consider having comments on it….should it ever end. We are very much still reaching for the nadir of this reclamation. No time yet for historicizing it. Still trying to survive it.

I am struggling with what might be a generational experience. The gulf war was pretty politically formative for me. It’s not history so much as memory this time.
It is destabilizing to see almost the exact same gameplan but this time without the guardrails that at the time I took for granted.
