Noem's use of the "Big Beautiful Bill" as a rationale for violating the plain language of federal law--and allowing ICE to operate its growing concentration camp network absent effective congressional oversight--further demonstrates that the massive reconciliation bill is funding a slow motion coup.

Frey on Noem: "That was some wild and crazy stuff. It sounds like she doesn't believe a single word she's saying right now. And I don't know if Donald Trump was drinking a glass of water if she'd actually be able to speak."

Put another way, this is an admission that ICE officers are so unprofessional and inadequately trained that simply being criticized might cause them to lose control and resort to violence.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

] attended a PAL-Awda NY/NJ–organized demonstration on Thursday in Kew Gardens, Queens, where activists and community members rallied to disrupt a real estate event advertising properties on stolen Palestinian land. The event promoted sales in Ma’ale Adumim, an illegal Israeli settlement in the occupied West Bank, marketed as a “new and exciting Anglo community just 15 minutes from Jerusalem.”
Organizers said the sale reflected open racism and colonial entitlement, part of a broader pattern of settler real estate firms hiding events in religious spaces and using discriminatory vetting to avoid protest. Protesters were met with racist and Islamophobic counter-protester violence and aggressive NYPD kettling. Organizers said New York must not be used to facilitate settlement expansion or war crimes.

➤ Hanna Markowitz, counter-protester

In Turkey, the government labeled first the protesters as terrorists, then intellectuals and dissenting media, then the Kurdish opposition, and now the largest mainstream opposition party. This won't stop until they either cow the opposition or put you behind bars.
Authoritarian governments accuse their opponents of terrorism and otherwise try to criminalize protest and justify persecution of those who resist them
WELKER: Noem called it an "act of domestic terrorism." What's the evidence?
HOMAN: If they didn't have sanctuary policies--
W: To be clear, is anyone who protests ICE a domestic terrorist?
HOMAN: It's case by case. If you look at the definition of terrorism, it certainly could fall within it
