You know how I keep saying that every damn skill and capacity is needed in this moment???

What do you know how to do that can serve in this critical time??
One man tracking people being deported & deportation flights at the Minneapolis airport.
One person creating a record for future inquiries & potential prosecutions.

I just generally think the antidote to dooming and feelings of helplessness is getting involved in any way. It can be as a poll worker, doing ICE watch, running for local office, helping with mutual aid, whatever.

You can get so much accomplished in your town or city if you just get involved.
anyway i know how many of you hate that i’m so vocal about this and think it makes me a naive shitlib or whatever. but again, i think the best thing you could do for yourself here is to get involved in election administration where you live.

A reminder that ICE hasn’t slowed down in Minneapolis at all.

Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Pretti’s murder. But ICE hasn’t actually lost any power and they’re continuing to terrorize our communities.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

It’s an uphill struggle getting people to accept that Christians can be bad people.

But the even harder truth that people urgently need to grasp in this time of Christofascism is that for some understandings of Christianity, to be a GOOD Christian is to be a BAD person.

Denial makes things worse

4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care - Los Angeles Times

Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:
4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care
In 2023, a Mexican girl, 4, was allowed U.S. entry for lifesaving medical care. She and her parents, who live in Bakersfield, have been told they must leave.

There is no hell deep enough to contain the people involved with this
Kristi Noem has been working with the producer of “Duck Dynasty” to pitch a reality TV show—titled “The American”—where immigrants will compete in a string of challenges across the country “for the honor of fast-tracking their way to U.S. citizenship,” according to a new report.
Noem Plots Reality Show Where Migrants Fight for Citizenship
A Homeland Security official told the Daily Beast that the show is in the early stages of vetting, though approval has not been given—or denied.

Democrats lost because a) they failed to articulate a compelling platform and b) because a huge swath of Americans are ignorant and racist. Not because they refused to throw trans people over the bus (they barely mentioned trans people).

Thinking you’re going to get an apology and remorse from the people who voted for this is like thinking your narcissistic parent is going to apologize for your childhood. These people think not apologizing or acknowledging regret is a virtue. And additionally, a form of image control.

This epitomizes one of the biggest problems with the "new right," which is that many of them cannot distinguish between "cancel culture" and "having standards."

You simply do not have to praise someone for saying "Heil Hitler." That's not intellectual bravery. It's depravity.

It’s really funny that conservatives are like “this pope supports immigrants and doesn’t like gun violence” as opposed to what they think Christianity should be concerned with which is having more white people in Honey Nut Cheerio commercials

BREAKING: Newark Airport is a full-blown disaster—800+ flights canceled, 5-hour delays, and the FAA bleeding staff like a severed artery.

This isn’t just Newark—it’s a nationwide meltdown in real time caused by a rotting, underfunded system.

And guess what? It’s about to get worse.

The Big Lie undergirding MAGA’s immigration posture is that immigrants are fundamentally parasitic, they just take from the host country. It’s a fascist conception and also just obviously wrong if you think about it for more than 10 seconds.
