Exactly right.

Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.

Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.

Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.

Every possible angle.
They are wounded and flailing. Press the advantage.

deeply amused by the optimism that Jacob Frey expresses to convince a man with the title “Border Czar” to stop being an unfettered racist
Feels like Trump is pretty much unconditionally surrendering as support collapses

this ghoul plans to retire to an orchard in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Boone, NC. A stain on the high country until he is wiped away from the earth
BREAKING Greg Bovino has been removed as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will return to El Centro Calif, where he is expected to retire soon. A stunning turnaround after Pretti killing. Bovino's traveling blue city crackdown is over www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

What are these little Eichmannd talking about? working at palantir is probably morally worse than working for ICE
Palantir employees are pressing company leadership over its work for ICE in internal company Slacks obtained by @wired.com

"In my opinion ICE are the bad guys. I am not proud that the company I enjoy so much working for is part of this."

I’m sorry I must have missed the other super moral Palantir activities they get up to when not providing intelligence for the gestapo

with all the conservative fervor around privacy not transferring to the PATRIOT Act, it shouldn’t be so surprising that those same conservatives are totally fine with Palantir and Flock “Safety” and the straight federal overreach propaganda they’ve been huffing for decades

it seems to be a big data point in the underlying fascistization of those agencies. The irrelevance of any actual chain of command removes a key mechanism of accountability

Shutdown hobbling much of the government now fully on track, with Senate Rs planning to reject calls by Democrats to split off and rework the DHS bill to add more guardrails in wake of the killings of US citizens in Minneapolis.
Shutdown would start Jan. 31.
Senate Republican leaders plan to reject Democratic demands to split off funding for the Department of Homeland Security and pass the rest of a giant funding package needed to avert a partial government shutdown this week, a Senate GOP aide said

we should take all their money. not joking. these guys are completely incompatible with democracy. there’s no reason we have to tolerate them with any kind of power. take their money and give them a garbage route so they can be useful to society for the first time in their life. otherwise, prison
The VCs bros have convinced themselves they are on some moral crusade. They will be behind the scenes trying to cling to power in the midterms and beyond.

Side note, they are also the biggest bunch of dorks

People at taken to Whipple are released into the cold in whatever they were wearing without their phones and IDs. Volunteers meet them at release (or find them left in parks and the woods) get them a burner, warm clothes, food, a ride home, etc

I’m begging lefties and liberals to stop posting things that erase the reality of how violent the US has been to Indigenous people and Black people (among other US populations) ever since its inception and along the way.

PLEASE. Do not copy conservatives by erasing history.
