Serious question: Which Inflatable Costume am I?
I mean, should I max out on whimsy? Just go straight to Frog? Is a Hulk costume too violent?

ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

the fox narrative, which is the gop narrative, was that blm went wild, burned down cities and democrats like biden/harris ignored the mass destruction and called them "mostly peaceful"

we all know thats not what happened, but thats what your conservative neighbors believed happened
It’s been kind of crazy-making to watch the massive retconning of what that uprising actually was and actually did—from a strong, multiracial, and largely nonviolent protest movement that scared the shit out of a lot of powerful people to a bad dangerous destructive wave of “riots”
begging for a repeat of 2020 is also odd in itself since Trump lost that election and most analysis suggests the protests damaged him pretty badly.

We also did a bunch of work on democratic inclusiveness, and various theories that the point of democracy is that no single authority can account for all the important reasons. That every single participant in a society has a different angle, a different form of relevant knowledge.

I need everyone to understand that this could not happen anywhere else exclusively because the people of minnesota started showing up for george floyd and then never stopped

this isn't a "sudden event", this is the culmination of nearly seven fucking years of steady leadership and participation
National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.

Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis.

Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.

Chillingly, the whistleblower says that ICE trainers were directed (no paper trail?) to train all of ICE's new recruits that these administrative warrants authorize breaking into peoples' homes, even though DHS's own training materials still make clear that's illegal!

This headline is wildly misleading and I am so sick of this biased reporting. Judge Cobb banned a similar policy last month and all this order did was tell the lawmakers to revise their Complaint to meet the admin’s latest argument. It’s not a victory for Trump.

If I was the commander in chief of the Imperial hegemon I would simply not dismantle the network of military and diplomatic alliances, favourable trade deals, and broad cultural paramountcy that had made my nation the most wealthy and powerful the world has ever seen.

Democrats who want to abolish ice should start introducing legislation to roll back the creation of DHS. It was a specific post 9/11 law that combined previously extant functions into a single new department. Let’s start getting that model legislation out there. (Is it already?)

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same
