No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

These freaks yell “just teach the classics” but they’re all illiterate or otherwise just don’t read, because there it is: the single greatest writer in the history of the English language reaching 4 centuries into the future to read them for the grimy, hateful filth they are.

Oh no I didn’t molest children with the notorious pedophile, I merely wanted access to his money and influence

I hope that whatever marginal gains the Democrats accomplish as the minority party with respect to ICE are just the beginning, though I fear they'll be an end. ICE was bad under Obama. It stayed. It was bad under Biden. It stayed. But ICE is bad because of what it does, not just how it does it.

They need to be a lot clearer about unmasking agents. The impunity these agents feel being masked is a very real thing. I predict a lot of agents will quit the force if they’re forced to do the job unmasked knowing they won’t get peace anywhere.

It sure is convenient that every bad thing that happens is "senseless." If we could figure any of it out we might have to do something about it
January 26, 2026 at 5:26 PM
"Sorry sorry trying to delete." Besides the moronic if not totally disingenuous absurdity of this statement, I am so sick of these people calling murders "senseless." Every one of these crimes makes sense. Calling them senseless just lets you off the hook for doing anything about it
Rep. Tom Suozzi(D-NY), getting raked over the coals for his vote for more ICE funding, says in a campaign email that he didn’t understand what he was doing

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

Now that blood is on the street, we still won’t admit you’ve been right all decade long while we scolded and marginalized you. Instead, we’ll declare it’s just now become right to say such things.

Even in this abhorrent right wing victim blaming fantasty in which the conservative male is the perfect subject of compliance, the hero cop still must be treated like a frightened rabid animal lest he lash out and kill as is his nature
Chip Roy: "As someone who carries a weapon in TX, if I'm in front of law enforcement or if I get stopped, I tell them that. I tell them that I've got a concealed carry permit. I show them my ID. I tell them where the weapon is bc that's what we're supposed to do. That's not what I think I saw here"

An insane, perfect encapsulation of it all:

The same day Trump’s agents kill a Veterans Affairs ICU nurse in broad daylight, the CEOs of Apple and Amazon join Trump to watch a private screening of a film about his wife directed by an alleged sexual abuser who was seen shirtless in the Epstein Files

Imagine what’s happening in the camps.
Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

this reminds me of the way i’ve seen susan bro speak about her daughter, heather heyer. when a fascist murders your child, you aren’t allowed to just grieve. you have to defend their memory, even their very grave.
