If only we had some sort of historical precedent that could help us understand what might happen when a constellation of highly militarized far right governments, organized around an angry and resentful, blood and soil version of nationalism, emerges and tries to remake the world in their image.

This 👇. My go-to explanation since the boat strikes and navy buildup began in late summer: They're bootstrapping a justification for invoking the Alien Enemies Act to detain and deport people domestically.
I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along

In sworn testimony during his trial, a witness testified that former President Hernández once said that he wanted to “shove drugs right up the noses of the gringos.”
Now he is going to be granted a pardon by President Trump — not even a commutation — and be freed from a 45-year prison sentence.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.

It’s absolutely true that the genocide in Gaza made some of this recent surge in Fuentes glazing possible. That makes it all the more important not to conflate Jewish people with the Israeli government and speak up against fascists—in a way that ADL won’t:

I’m afraid this is a valid concern. Once the infrastructure is in place, a repressive regime feels anxiously compelled to fill it.
ICE *already* can't meet their detainment numbers without rounding up children, veterans, people born in the U.S., people with no criminal records, people at immigration hearings, plus academics and visitors with valid visas.
So who do they plan to detain with >10x the budget?
The answer is: you.
So who do they plan to detain with >10x the budget?
The answer is: you.
If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029:
- $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion
- $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million
- $8 billion for hiring/retention
- Billions more.
