Must watch.
Must watch.
Corporatist fascism, plain and simple.
DHS is trying to get tech companies to hand over data on Trump critics.
This is unconstitutional, and Congress must shut it down, before we turn into East Germany.

AOC: If you can keep people divided, then you can continue to loot the economy.
They are they are trying to distract from the fact that prices have exploded, that people's health insurance is being stripped, $1 trillion out of health care to fund this violence.
Ford has a well-deserved spot at the top of the Boycott guide (where the new ones sit before I slot them into their category). The Ford entry became a mini-indictment of the auto industry as a whole but Ford, as a corporation, is one of the worst, most abusive.

A young protester narrowly avoided being killed but was left permanently blind after a Department of Homeland Security agent fired a nonlethal round at close range during a Santa Ana protest last week, according to family of the victim. Jeri Rees said her 21-year-old nephew, Kaden Rummler, underwent six hours of surgery and that doctors found shards of plastic, glass and metal embedded in his eyes and around his face, including a metal piece lodged 7 millimeters from a carotid artery.
Horrible violence against a protester in California: www.latimes.com/california/s...
Here's an update from the post I shared a few days back.
The 21 year old youngster who protesting peacefully & holding a speaker and was shot in the face by #ICE point blank has been permanently blinded in 1 eye!
Please share this story widely!
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.
A citizen.
Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.
"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.
Agents took and sold his phone
And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.
Murphy: The United States Congress should not fund a Department of Homeland Security that is not obeying the laws of the United States of America
Goldman: Until DHS reins in this rogue and authoritarian ICE secret police force, there should be no more funding provided to DHS.
The ICE agents brutalized this kid for no reason, stole his smartphone and sold it, pocketing the cash. The kid is a US citizen who did nothing wrong. The ICE agents, however, are violent and dangerous felons. This is America in 2026.
Close to 90 million people did NOT vote in the 2024 election.
90 million.
It bears repeating over and over and over.
So let me get this straight. The man who tore down the East Wing of the White House in order to build an oversized ballroom that no one asked for has launched an investigation into Jerome Powell over renovations to the Federal Reserve headquarters.
Did I get that right?
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand
Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE:
"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".
"Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".
All across the country, we want to give a huge shout-out to everyone who showed up, organized, and stood together in the streets Minneapolis, St. Paul, Chicago, New York City, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Miami, Los Angeles,
ICE THUGS arrested a pastor & kept asking him "Are you afraid?" numerous occasions. The pastor said NO. Eventually the THUGS let him go stating that "You're WHITE, you're no fun to us!!"
This is how sick & deranged these THUGS are, thanks to this REGIMEβΌοΈ

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Yearβs Eve. And like RenΓ©e Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need yβall to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
βIt was 47, 48K tops. It just looked like more because it was in small bills.β
This guy is in Minneapolis standing before an American citizen in an SUV.
The only reason he's brandishing an assault rifle is because he wants the people he's purportedly there protecting to feel terrorized by his presence.
This is not protection. This is occupation.

Hit them where it hurts them - boycotts can work
The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.
Remember folks, youβre not allowed to impede law enforcement officersβ¦unless youβre a election conspiracist Trump-loving MAGA domestic terrorist, in which case you can beat LEOs with the American flag and receive presidential praise and presidential pardon.
Those are the new, authoritarian rules.
We donβt have a complete account of Donald Trump and his familyβs finances. But a clear picture has emerged: enrichment of the First Family on a scale that is unprecedented in American history.

There is a grave moral consequence to letting this go on. Shut down the government, have a general strike, grind the country to a halt, hit the streets. But not treating a demented administration lying about its thugs committing cold-blooded murder as an emergency? That is an emergency in itself.
AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunityβand we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people
really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?
Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldnβt know anything about that.
GS: βSen. Warner said you canβt argue drug trafficking charges demand invasion in one case while issuing a pardon in anotherβ¦βπ€
