Arresting journalists.

Fatally shooting protestors.

Turning the military on citizens.

Attempting to rig elections.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

"Lie down with dogs, get up with fleas" is a saying for a reason.

I'm sure I've asked terrible people for jobs, seeing as I live under late-stage capitalism and need to eat. I've never sought out an association with a convicted pedophile. Hope that helps.

I don't like to talk about stories before they are fully reported, but I am writing on ICE in a Minnesota town that isn't Minneapolis. However bad you think it is, it is worse. It is a campaign of pure terror whose only strategic goal is more terror. There is no strategy other than to break people.

Amazon has cut a combined 28,000 jobs since October. Its CEO made $40M+ in 2024

UPS has announced 78,000 job cuts since last year. Its CEO made $24M.

HP announced up to 6,000 layoffs in November. Its CEO made $21M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

If anyone took footage of ICE teargassing us at the protest in Portland less than an hour ago, I need you to check your phone and confirm the footage is still on it. Either way, could you confirm here, please. #portland #pdx

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.

Thousands just marched through Downtown Chicago against ICE.

A Mexican immigrant was taken to a hospital after bones in his face & skull were broken while in federal custody. ICE said he tried to flee while handcuffed and “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall," but hospital staffers said that couldn't explain fractures & bleeding throughout his brain.

Yes, ICE is killing or permanently maiming people & getting away with it.

"...said one of the nurses, who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss patient care. “There was no way this person ran headfirst into a wall.”

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.
The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.
