The far right's smartest people are deeply ignorant.

Here's Curtis Yarvin showing he knows nothing about the history of civil disobedience.

Henry David Thoreau invented the term in 1849, to describe practices that had existed long before that.

Huge news! They actually released Liam Ramos and his father!

Please remember that ICE is abducting more people - including children - all the time. And they will no doubt keep trying to harass and destroy this family.

Defund and abolish ICE and support immigrants!

"The third woman said federal agents at her hotel are subsisting on microwavable bowls of Campbell’s chicken noodle soup, because it’s become so difficult for them to find restaurants willing to serve them.”
I visited hotels all over Minneapolis, went into back rooms & talked to the staff.

They're afraid.

One told me she resents how her undocumented coworkers spend their days cleaning the rooms of agents who are “hunting down their family members.”
