This is absolutely shocking. Something has to be done about this appalling situation in which so many now find themselves. The government needs to act

An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering.

Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law.

Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.

it really is this easy, and i’d also argue there are moral and ethical imperatives to do this

which one again raises the question of why no media *are*
A solid two days of asking Seymour basic questions about his party's clear desire for ordinary people to starve, struggle and die in workplace accidents followed by a third of "where's Seymour? David keeps running away from us" would save both our struggling media outlets and our democracy tbh
it's fucking pathetic too, because they'll all whinge it's 'just the way media is' & Seymour is just 'so good at clicks' which is why they quote his PR verbatim & give him free media

you know what else is good for clicks? verbally flaying one of the most *hated nz MPs of all time* live on camera

If Vance did “order that Springfield be cleaned,” it’s nowhere in the article that Horton cites.

Which is why you should go to the source. Not just the screenshot

As Springfield's 15,000 Haitians brace for deportations, local churches train to resist ICE
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio (RNS) — Over a year since Donald Trump and JD Vance spread falsehoods about the city's migrants eating pets, Haitians’ temporary protected status is set to run out Feb. 3.

Not sure exactly what I can do from here but I remember 2 years ago Mike Dewine was saying that the attacks from Vance on the Haitian community was bad, so maybe we who can't be in Springfield in person should call and ask if he meant that and what he plans to do to help these people in Ohio?
I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Repulsive JD Vance spectacle tells America to reject what we saw with our own eyes • Ohio Capital Journal
Repulsive hardly describes JD Vance’s performative spectacle last week justifying the public execution of an American citizen by state militia. The horrific killing was all over social media but Vance...

People laughed when JD Vance and Trump viciously lied about Haitians in Springfield eating pets. It wasn’t a joke. Springfield, Ohio is the target of Stephen Miller’s next pogrom.
Haitians in Springfield, Ohio lose temporary protected status on February 3rd. There will very likely be a major ICE incursion the next day. Haitians in Springfield were the targets of Vance’s lying during the campaign.

We had a $6B climate resilience fund and Nationals squandered it all on tax cuts for their mates so now we get boxes of KFC after weather events instead of properly funded supports and help.

Yay for us I guess??
Leaders should absolutely show up, but disaster response isn’t a photo op or should be trivialised. Watching our Prime Minister hand out boxes of KFC to impacted communities was peak cringe IMO. We need serious, systems-level action and that 6b resilience fund like yesterday.

Someone paid $344,100 plus slush and housing telling everyone else to "eat less" really is something, isn't it?

Shit like that is why guillotines were invented. We're more civilised now, fortunately - but we still need to run that prick out of office.

Here's how this will play out: people will complain about the lack of coverage, then the Post or Herald will run a single story about it and then drop it.

Then every smarmy media figure will pop up saying "see we covered it" and "we hold both sides accountable".
