Also, if we’re being blunt, the purpose of nonviolent resistance isn’t to avoid getting your ass kicked. It’s to dare them to kick your ass as brutally and publicly as possible.
"whether they're a boy or a girl, some people like boys, some like girls, some like both, some like neither" was easy for us lol

NB is a wrinkle but thankfully they haven't asked that lol

NB's easy to explain too: "some people are boys, some are girls, some are neither" "oh, ok" is the response
always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

i think this more than anything is what miller wants. vast detention camps with all of the suffering and death that means.
ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.

If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

In my opinion, high-tech agriculture achieves better balance under present conditions, i.e. would be better under many Native philosophies than "traditional methods", now that these methods exist
I have immense respect for indigenous cultures. However, it is deeply impractical to feed 8+ billion people sustainably and reliably without high-tech industrial agriculture.

Ultimately, this is just reactionary, conservative pastoralism wrapped in leftist framing.

You don't fight this hard to hide nothing
BREAKING: On February 2, Sec. Noem issued a memo asserting the lapse in appropriations for DHS meant there is no Sec. 527 — the provision protecting congressional oversight visits to immigration detention facilities — and she was issuing a new (third) policy requiring seven-day notice for visits.

This is Tom Homan's actual goal and why he is focused on law enforcement cooperation.
wrt to some of the replies to this post, part of why the media has “moved on” is because it has become extraordinarily difficult to document ICE activity on the ground, outside of them arresting citizens.

Are there sports guys on here who adopt the annoying too-savvy doomerism of politics guys? Saying stuff like "You really think there's going to be a second half"
if you see someone posting "I CANT BELIEVE IT, HOLY SHIT" or "THIS IS UN-FUCKING REAL" later this afternoon know with confidence it's either someone watching "the big game" or more evidence of elite wrongdoing uncovered in the unending global pedophile trafficking scandal

The fact that this man still has a job related to reporting and/or politics is emblematic of why we got here
The president is now attacking a US Olympian as a “Loser” and misrepresenting his words for his mild unspecified criticisms about things going on in the US right now.

Partisan gerrymandering should be constitutionally barred.

SCOTUS says it isn't.

Until a constitutional amendment changes that we can't have unilateral disarmament.

Which means once Republicans kicked off mid-decade redistricting this was the only possible response

Schiff on Gabbard's involvement in Georgia: "All of this is intended to send a message and the message is, 'We will not tolerate or accept an election that we lose.' That's why in these budget discussions we need to make sure, among other things, that we don't have ICE agents at polling places."

Watergate, but if someone was killed.
NYT confirming MS NOW reporting:

Prosecutors began investigating Renee Good's killing, then Washington told them to stop.

Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.

I don't want to speak rashly here, but I'm starting to get the feeling that the Trump administration is *not* actually concerned with holding pedophiles to account?

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.
