Calling foreign bots and trolls hybrid-terrorism strikes me as pretty spot on.
US-funded and other foreign-based troll and bot networks exploiting a Canadian mass-casualty event makes it clear there is an urgent need for Canada, and allied governments, to legislate and enforce meaningful penalties against this form of hybrid-terrorism. #CdnPoli

C’mon, Chuck. You’re fighting to “rein in” ICE? DEFUND ICE.
This is why there must be a full, independent investigation of every incident that ICE has been involved in. DHS and this administration cannot be trusted to carry out investigations on their own.
And it’s why Democrats are fighting to rein in ICE.

Omg, this is beyond psychotic. The level of dehumanizing hatred you must feel towards someone to do this to children is jaw-dropping.
This is the sort of stuff that requires truth and reconciliation tribunals—there’s no crime here, but it demands public accountability.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

“Not Ready for Prime Time.” A Federal Tool to Check Voter Citizenship Keeps Making Mistakes.
The Department of Homeland Security pushed out the revamped tool while it was still adding data. That led to widespread misidentification, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.
