It’s not that I’m rejecting modernity, but I believe a human-sized world which allows for all of our silly foibles is better and more colorful than a machine-predictable future.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

⛓️CONCENTRATION CAMPS & INCINERATORS—D.H.S. is setting up a huge network of camps. They are converting the U.S. as a region for ‘expeditionary military deployment’ & no-bid no-public-comment contracts to build a “ghost network” of 10,000-person concentration camps. Jesus. Thread 🧵

🚨 Documents leaked to me reveal a federal watchlist of American protesters suspected of being Antifa - including its supposed leader.

One Department of Homeland Security document says a 29-year-old resident of Portland "is the leader of Antifa":

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.

You know what is necessary to fight fascism? Giving up privileges like going to the fucking Super Bowl to watch people paid millions to throw a weird ball around who play on teams owned by billionaires.

Grow the fuck up.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

So pretend he DID die on the flight to Davos…

What would the official statements of all the gathered world leaders be like?

Heartfelt statements of condolences for the family and warm feelings of hope for the American people?

srsly

I know there’d be partying in the streets of Minneapolis

In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.

ICYMI National politicians are wealthy. Like REALLY wealthy. Their job is to get elected and then reelected.

They do not get reelected if they don’t raise money. Like A LOT of money.

They get money by helping other rich people to make money. A LOT of money.

Their job is NOT to represent you.

I believe that Bondi/Noem/Hegseth/Patel/Bessent/et al
have sworn a superseding oath to protect and uphold Donald J Trump

that the ICE drones all have sworn an oath to Donald J Trump

That Roberts/Alito/Thomas/Kavanaugh/Barret have all sworn that same oath

It’s why “the law” is not being followed.
