I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

The dems refusing to back Mamdani is a glaring reminder that the punk ass neoliberals are complicit in the system. Yall love to imagine these figures until they show up in your face and remind you that the people you claim to care about are the exact same people you refuse to bump elbows with.

To remain neutral in the face of systemic violence is not an act of peace.

Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.
@roxanegay.bsky.social maybe you’re right.

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it.

Pope Leo XIV's grandparents were 7th Ward Creoles

One of the arguments neoliberals made about "free trade" in the late 1990s, was that it would reduce military conflict. I don't think that quite bore out the way they said, but it does strike me as true that destroying the US-China trade relationship WILL make military confrontation much more likely
