I am so grateful for every observer making sure ICE’s crimes are witnessed and documented. They’re immeasurably brave patriots.

I am trying not to post on these events in this state of mind but: I hope people understand what the observers are doing is brave and dangerous.

I continue to be, let's say 'annoyed,' at nat'l coverage that posits "Americans" are reacting w/ passivity. Most leaders may be, but I spend every day talking to ordinary people taking extraordinary steps to protect their families, communities and countries. National media just missing the story.
Here @ashleyrparker.bsky.social tries to explain the peculiar passivity with which America has greeted naked authoritarianism.

The rise of Big Beef as an ally to fascism isn't surprising, but it does add an additional twist of Robber Baron absurdity.
The Dept.of Interior is sabotaging the MT bison restoration efforts of the group American Prairie, by revoking their permits, claiming that the allotments only be grazed by cows, not bison.

Yet another win for the beef industry, owned in large part by venture capitalists/tech bros.

DOGE likely perpetrated the most serious, far-reaching data breaches in human history, and we will be dealing with the consequences for years.

Many DOGErs should have been, and still could be, prosecuted for these crimes.

Exactly this. And even if he could get red states to go along with it (which I don't believe he can -- extremely unpopular lame duck, remember??), I don't think Republican candidates or voters are going to be cool with it if only blue states hold elections!
the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

She was protesting.

He told her to leave.

She was complying.

SHE TURNED THE WHEEL TO LEAVE.

Another agent tried to forcibly open her door.

She gave the car gas to leave.

He shot her in the face.

These are the facts of what happened.

In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.
