This is yet another manifestation of their Sadism. They film their cruelty. They get off on it.

And Sadism *never* exists in isolation. It's always accompanied by sociopathy-psychopathy (ASPD).

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

Seems like a lot of people have been guided to stare at the wrong part of the picture, like the spotlight got moved to the wrong 1%.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

To everyone and especially MAGAs feeling betrayed by Trump's shameless lie that as president he would release the Epstein files:

Please share this video from 2017 you will NEVER see on Fox revealing how "LOCK HER UP!" in 2016 was Trump's biggest lie since "Make America Great Again".

NEW: A MAGA X account often shared by Senator Mike Lee and House Republicans like Nancy Mace--that often alleges Democrats encourage voting fraud-- is run by a man who not only has never stepped foot in the US, he also illegally donated to an American campaign.

New — I was fortunate to speak in front of students and faculty at Grinnell College in Iowa tonight about the business of independent journalism, the current state of media under Trump 2.0, and billionaire control.

I published my full speech because I thought it might resonate beyond campus:

Truth, morality and independence in journalism under the second Trump regime

My full remarks to students and faculty at Grennell College.

I see a lot of people asking why the GOP would do what they're doing knowing that 2026 is just around the corner. I'm pretty sure it's because they're confident those elections will be rigged in their favor. They aren't out to win hearts and minds.

We will not allow ICE to operate in the shadows while they surveil us and violate our rights.

Our responsibility is to protect civil liberties, not surrender them. @repshontelbrown.bsky.social, @repyassansari.bsky.social and I are demanding answers about their use of spyware against US citizens.

Lawmakers Demand Information About Potential Use of Paragon Spyware by ICE

The lawmakers warned that allowing ICE to use spyware “threatens Americans’ freedom of movement and freedom of speech.”…
