You probably saw videos of a nighttime raid in Chicago. Agents rappelling from a helicopter, bursting down doors, questioning brown-skinned immigrants.
We investigated -- and found little evidence to support the government’s claims about Tren de Aragua.

It's so irresponsible to lie and fear monger like this, especially when you present yourself as a trusted journalist. Now I have to question everything else this man brought to my attention

But let’s be clear: every day, masked ICE agents are acting violently against our neighbors, illegally abducting them, holding them in cruel and inhumane conditions. Treating them as less-than-human, and not deserving due process.

The reality is that fascist are already rewriting history to create their fascist, future and backwards looking myths.
This is an archived government report that found that “Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists.”
It existed yesterday and is gone today.

“What they’re offering people is not health insurance or economic security,” Stanley says, “They’re offering them delight in the torture of others.”
The official voice of the U.S. government draws from 4chan trolls, explicitly white nationalist phrases and talking points, and radicalizing, dehumanizing, desensitizing language for its targets. I talked to propaganda experts about what it’s doing to us:

The second most votes for Harris in any state came from Texas.
The notion that US states are politically uniform, and everyone there deserves the consequences of state elections is absurd.

I often get asked how the Hands of Eir program works... what we do. I might as well explain our CURRENT process.
Our work as an exit program is actually fairly casual. We interview potential former far-right extremist / white nationalist clients who then get paired with a peer mentor—usually me.

These are companies that endorsed the bill publicly and were featured on a White House webpage.

It’s hard to think of a better encapsulation of the Democratic Party right now than a 13-post rationalization for why doing nothing is actually the smartest move.

Dave Bautista will finally star in his own rom-com ‘THE ROMANTIC’ after wishing to star in one for years.
The film follows a man who is secretly a romance author named Francine, but he must hire a woman to pose as him at a convention to avoid scrutiny.
