OFFS. When Iran tried to interefere in 2020, researchers caught them and called them out. Then the Benz-Weiss-Taibbi-Musk-Jordan-Trump axis labeled those researchers "censors" ... and set about defunding them and dismantling their organizations.

Charming moment when Trump gets Republicans to stand up and cheer wildly as he tells the story about how he had the military kidnap the leader of a country who tried to steal an election and also locked up his political opponents. He even killed citizens who protested against his regime!

The entire administration is lawless & authoritarian & committing a dozen immediately impeachable offenses every day. If we’re going to recover & never do this again, then working for that administration at the Cabinet/Senate-confirmed or senior WH staff level must have ex post consequences.

The charges against Don Lemon are ridiculous. He’s a target because he’s black, because he’s media, and because he’s a Trump critic, and because Trump and his minions cannot accept any dissent. It’s deeply pathetic, unamerican, and lawless.

β€œAll of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesiveβ€”because of its diversity and not in spite of it.”

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

Look it’s very simple: tyranny is when the government NOT white nationalist, not when it IS white nationalist.

Literally 10 days ago, this hypocritical jackass introduced a bill to make concealed carry easier across the nation to help "law-abiding citizens to more freely exercise their Second Amendment rights." www.hoeven.senate.gov/news/news-re...

The official policy of the government of the United States of America is that they will murder anyone they want, that they will tell any lie necessary to justify that murder, and that no one who resists them has any rights they are bound to respect.

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

no matter how hard Greg Bovino tries to exude rugged masculinity he always comes off like Don Knotts in a Portlandia sketch

Last week "abolish ice" was the moderate position

I'd say the moderate position today is probably Nuremberg

Ask yourself: If Donald Trump was intentionally trying to destroy the United States, how could you tell the difference?

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: β€œNo, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

/6 ICE is a monument to totalitarianism, lawlessness, and bigotry. It should be ripped out and woodchippered root and branch and replaced with something focused on the concept that you can’t defend the rule of law by burning it down.

High School Student Doing Laundry Among Those Detained In Morris Co. ICE Raid A GoFundMe has been launched to help afford an immigration lawyer for the high school senior who was detained by ICE over the weekend.

In Morristown NJ, ICE took away an 18-year-old high school student from a laundromat. His father found the clothes, but not his son

On this day in 1988, the Supreme Court dramatically changed the balance of student press rights and gave administrators broad power to censor.

We must stress: The only violence is coming from CBP/ICE. They are rioting in the face of sustained nonviolent protests by thousands of Americans across the country.

They are today’s Alabama State Troopers at the Selma bridge. They are Bull Connor’s police with firehoses in Birmingham.

HAPPENING NOW: In federal court in MN, DOJ is struggling to articulate why a person following an ICE vehicle β€” so long as they are obeying traffic laws β€” can be stopped for "reasonable suspicion" of a crime.

Judge Menendez sharply questioning that contention.
