This raid is disgusting, abominable behavior, traumatizing children and families in their homes.

"They was terrified. The kids was crying. People was screaming. They looked very distraught. I was out there crying when I seen the little girl come around the corner, because they was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other," Watson said. "That's all I kept asking. What is the morality? Where's the human? One of them literally laughed. He was standing right here. He said, 'f*** them kids.'"

It was only two weeks ago when we first saw an ICE agent unholster his sidearm at Broadview. Since then, there have been many reports of agents directly pointing their guns at protesters. The escalation is escalating.

Harms Committed @harmscommitted.com · 5d

"ICE has no regard for any human life."

"I've seen ICE agents with fingers on their trigger, using real M16s and M9s, pointing them at people."

"They're just trigger happy, and there is no trigger discipline."

With security on the level of a Super Bowl and a speaker lineup on par with a state funeral, conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s service will combine memorial with political rally, requiring an unprecedented level of resources.

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."

Okay I'll bite: I'll do a nationwide tour of evangelical churches. I don't have 100s of millions in dark money that Ezra's soulmates Kirk & Shapiro had to fund this, so I'm asking @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social, respectfully, to send me $500k in seed funding
Will announce schedule once he sends the check

I think the left did not adopt that particular attitude. The left was more likely for quite some time to try to keep someone like Kirk or Ben Shapiro from speaking on campus than to happily debate with them and do the reverse — which is like, “_Can you do a speaking tour of evangelical churches?_” Can you actually go into the places you feel are most hostile to you and treat that as an interesting place to begin a conversation, even if only to sharpen your own arguments?
