Honestly thought this must be video from Iran.
A year into Trump’s second term and the nation is visibly destabilized. Internal divisions have hardened into open conflict, state and federal authorities are at odds, and our allies are quietly preparing to defend themselves from us.

If you don't stand against fascism, you undoubtedly still be affected

This guy was just trying to get home, ICE threw a smoke grenade in the car. his kids ended up inhaling unknown amounts of smoke.

This is how fascism functions. The boot does not care who it stomps, remember that

A teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present.

He was bundled into the van & taken away.

Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?”

I don’t know how America comes back from all this.

This video is the perfect encapsulation of the illegal, thuggish, unprovoked, violent conduct of ICE. Rep. @benniethompson.bsky.social, I trust that you and the House Homeland Security Committee will have interest in this.

The decision has been made to break an American city. It is an experiment. We must do all we can (legally) to help Minneapolis hold on.
if you want to know what it is like in minneapolis, I don’t even have to scroll on facebook to find a horror story. it’s basically my whole feed.

everyone i know in minneapolis is seeing ICE take people—at gas stations, taquerias, bus stops, schools. just snatching random people.

These were really heavy topics. Some cried during their speeches. Some cried from each other's speeches. Parents cried. It was communal care. There is so much hope in the future if we support and foster young people's passions.

Renee Nicole Good was killed by an ICE officer in Minneapolis—now her family has to cope not only with their loss “but with a campaign designed to justify her killing,” Adam Serwer argues:
First the Shooting. Then the Lies.
The Trump administration has perfected the smear campaign.

Why Greenland?

"Peter Thiel, who wants to set up crypto-empowered 'network states' on undeveloped territory, has invested in Praxis, a start-up that aims to do just that and which has scouted Greenland. Trump’s ambassador to Denmark, Ken Howery, was a co-founder with Thiel and Elon Musk of PayPal."

Among many ironies here is that “mafia state” is probably the best descriptor of modern Venezuela. Basically a mafia beef between two gangsters.

The failure of our elites to hold Trump accountable for January 6th is as disgraceful as what happened on that awful day.

Since 2010, 35 democratic leaders around the world have been criminally convicted. Only Trump went unpunished and unconstrained.

Now he threatens democracy at home and abroad.

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history.
Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸
