truly disturbing video from palatine.

agents appear to drive onto a sidewalk in pursuit. as they wrestle to put a young person in the car, the driver starts to pull away. the person recording shouts, “they’re tasing him!”

unclear if they actually used the taser, but you can hear it charging up.

Trump is lawless, & the so-called BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL will knee-cap the courts. We'll be headed down a path to dictatorship, if this thing passes in the senate.

OMG. The so-called BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL has a one-sentence dirty little secret in it that every American, regardless of party, needs to know.
🚨 IT'S CRITICAL TO SHARE WIDELY, off Bsky, too!

It would be a STUNNING Viktor-Orbán-style restriction on the power of Federal courts, including the SCOTUS.

Do these look like ICE agents to you?! Fascist cowards are stalking Seattle’s courthouse halls, snatching people after their cases are dismissed. No crime. No warning. Just terror and deportation in hours.
This is a war on due process & POCs —and we will fight like hell to end it🤬

They have been proceeding otherwise
🧵The graphics in this thread could save a life.
ICE, HSI, & CBP are detaining people without cause aka kidnapping, refusing to ID themselves, and violating constitutional rights.
We must protect our people.

Share these graphics.

Help our communities know their rights—and use them.

Trump’s $1 million-per-seat secret dinner is “the most brazen act of corruption by a president in our lifetimes, probably in a century, possibly ever,” says Chris Hayes. “Call it the Met Gala of presidential pay-for-play.”

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”

This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.

He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

So the guy, Billy Long, that Trump picked to run the IRS made a crap ton of money encouraging small businesses to commit tax fraud by wrongfully applying for the employee retention tax credit from the pandemic.
