You can tell who the Good Guys are because they're the ones smashing a car window to drag a mother away from her child while wearing ski masks.
“Mommy, no. Mommy.”

Daughter captures the moment masked ICE agents smash the window of her mother's car in order to take her into custody.

The government claims the 52-year old seamstress is an associate of the MS-13 gang.

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Real whiplash watching the Trump message go from “we’ll fix everything on day one” to “suck it up buttercup, this is gonna hurt.”

I think the anti-woke backlash is in no small part because of COVID. People were asked to do things for the common good and that radicalized them against any kind of common good and the concept of civic virtue, and an entire political party decided that was good because a Democrat was in office.

$100 invested in the S&P 500 on Oct 27, 2022, when the Twitter acquisition closed, is worth $142 today. $100 kept in Vichy Twitter just paid off at $73. Almost exactly a 50% loss vs an index fund for his co-investors but Musk gets ever wealthier! Funny how that works out!
BREAKING: xAI has acquired X (formerly Twitter) at $33 billion ($45 billion less $18B of debt) per Elon Musk

Fuck this asshole
Elon Musk is transparently talking out of his nasty unwashed asshole. No one under any circumstance should capitulate to this pathetic unrepentant Nazi whose own children find him repulsive. We have a right to say whatever the fuck we want about his shitty cars & I hope we bankrupt him
Musk says the administration is going to “go after” people pushing lies about Tesla

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos.

Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

The staff at this public elementary school in DC showed far more courage than an Ivy with $15 billion endowment
More details: ICE goons were turned away at HD Cooke. They tried to seize the school nurse in the parking lot without a warrant, but backed off after staff intervened.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

It’s very discouraging to watch our country slowly re-learn the lessons that led to the end of segregation, among them that people who think they’re racially superior are nearly universally incompetent fools unable to face up to their own deficiencies and putting them in charge is suicide

How firm is the hold of antivax beliefs?

From the parents of the 6 year old unvaccinated child who died of measles:

“Don’t do the shots,” the girl’s mother said. Measles, she added, is “not as bad as they’re making it out to be.” She noted that her four other children all recovered…

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

New analysis says ~2/3 of unpaid taxes come from the top 10% of households, w/ 28% coming from the top 1%.

The GOP CR would cut $20.2 billion of IRS funding for catching rich tax cheats - because the GOP is laser-focused on helping the rich cheat on their taxes.

if you want to know why Musk/Trump's shit is instantly toxic abroad but popular at home, it's because abroad they don't have a cheerleading pro-Trump media and a backstop of corrupt judges to clean up after every stupid decision. Instead it just looks stupid and cruel.
