What is the point of appropriations if the White House can just cut off spending against its enemies?
The USDA just cut off ag aid to MN
They’re targeting and invading Minnesota. Cutting off all of our federal funding and flooding our state with federal agents with no purpose. They’re here to terrorize, cause chaos to justify their unlawful cruelty. Enough.

as a person literate in 1980s film scholarship, this whole situation is just unbelievably on the nose

the male gaze, as depicted by a guy literally filming himself kill a gay woman because he was emasculated

if this was a film it would be panned as absurdly unsubtle

they gave them a shitload of money, but you can't from-nothing this shit, they're hollowed out and the flailing will only get worse.

that strikes me as "they will shoot more people" but also "there is only so much danger these wimps will put themselves into"

Been thinking quite a lot this week about one of the very first cases I tracked of ICE detaining a U.S. citizen

A year ago, ICE agents detained a 20 YO they said swerved his car at them

But local Utah police checked security footage. And it wasn’t true

Unified police say ICE agents made inaccurate claims about driver swerving toward them - KSLTV.com
Two Utah police agencies said ICE agents made false claims about a driver swerving toward them during a traffic stop last week.

Obstruction of justice. Arrest and prosecute all of these people (and the leadership). Disregard any pardons because Trump is a co-conspirator.
NEW: These are ICE agents removing evidence from the shooter's home. They are not DOJ, they are Jonathan Ross's friends and coworkers, not DOJ.

This agent removing Ross's personal computer was reported yesterday Jan 9 for boxing in a volunteer and telling them "I'll dedicate my next arrest to you"

People aren’t reading the article. It’s from Oct 2025. Maduro authorized these overtures, and he would step down and remain in country or go into exile in Qatar. This article is NOT about VP Rodriquez selling out Maduro. Maybe she didn’t but that’s not what’s alleged in this old report.

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

With libertarians like these, who needs fascists
20 years of a much better regime than the Taliban is a real gain. The mistake was the withdrawal.

“Maduro’s conduct was not official acts because fuck you.” U.S. v. Maduro, 25 S.Ct. 3487 (2028) (Alito, J., concurring)
Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."

I was in Berlin leading up to the 2003 Iraq invasion when I saw this phrase for the first time on a poster: “Kein Blud für Öl”
I'm copying and pasting this from 2003:
