A nerd from Chicagoland. As an American, I am so sorry. #ResistFascism

Nerdo el Ĉikagolando. Kiel usonano, mi tre bedaŭras kaj pardonpetas. #RezistuFaŝismon

The irony of ICE detaining and disappearing the original Americans should stop everyone cold.

As a Lakota proverb says, when you discover you’re riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. This system isn’t broken. It’s dead.

The #Black #Panthers are back. In 2026, a group operating as the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense has re-emerged, in defense of Black and marginalized communities.
Not the same organization that operated from 66-82, its mission echoes the same demand: dignity, justice, and power to the people.✊💪

Trump is a Russian asset.
And every Republican is responsible for all that is happening to America and the civilized world because of it.

If this madness isn’t cause to invoke the 25th Amendment, what is?

That’s not hyperbole, either. In a toddler, this behavior would need correction. In an adult, it demonstrates a clear lack of brain function. His decision-making abilities are beyond compromised.

Fare thee well, #LegionRemix! I didn’t finish what I’d wanted to, but I got over 90% of it, finished 7/12 classes, and dumped a few hundred kilobronze into extra decor for my warlock main.

Not a bad timerun.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Even if it were possible to reform ICE perfectly into some impossible ideal of government service tomorrow, it wouldn’t matter. Today, they are murdering people in the streets, invading peaceful communities & throwing grenades at infants.

The public’s trust is lost.

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.

The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.
Breaking news: The Justice Department has issued subpoenas for Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey as part of an investigation alleging that they are impeding federal law enforcement officers’ abilities to do their jobs in the state.

The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

There is no “reform” here. I don’t care what function they were supposed to serve; they have been tainted in the public eye by being Trump’s #MAGAstapo. As ICE, they will never be trusted, nor should they be.

If the function is that important, make something new. This one is totaled. #AbolishICE

Oh, well if she was assaulting them then of course where she was born is suddenly relevant somehow. 🙄

And that is some permanent damage to the U.S. economy & standing in the world. No big deal though, right? It’s not like our farmers sold all that much to China, right?

Good day to own a farm in Canada, though.
