1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

If you are the type
who watches the Olympics
and comments on every luge
and ski jump and triple axel
by humorously saying
“I could do that, if I wanted to,”
take a moment to look
at the athletes wearing N95 masks
and know:
you could do that,
if you wanted to, you really could.

Remember when I said I think our sense of time is being f’d with by these platforms - here is a great example from @imanibarbarin.bsky.social educating us on asynchronous communication www.instagram.com/reel/DUIyx7N...
Imani Barbarin on Instagram: "We’re here because we have one side that wants you 💀 and another that will build the infrastructure to do it. None of this has to be happening."

ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year!

Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him.

He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary.

His health is declining.

Public outrage might save his life.

Say his name:
Sign the Petition
Demand the Release of Rodney Taylor from ICE Detention

If the border did not exist, if militarization and violence were absent from the borderlands, people would move freely, without needing to turn to smuggling networks.

As we saw with the killings of Renee and Alex in Minneapolis, when federal agencies shoot people, they smear the victims as criminals and terrorists regardless of any facts.

From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now):

-If you work for ICE.
-If you vote for money for ICE.

You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

Once again: Focusing on their lack of training is a mistake. With "better training," their violence would simply cost more, and they would still kill whoever they wanted, but make it look more professional — to make people more comfortable, the way many of you are at ease with local police violence.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

They're going to keep shooting nurses and poets, parents and neighbors dead in the streets, and every single time they do it they will concoct a lie to justify what they've done.

The fact that people know this, and still stand up to them, scares them absolutely shitless.

What worries me with ice is that the public has no way of knowing if they are really ice. They have unmarked vehicles, wear masks, show no warrants or legal paperwork, no identification, and appear very unprofessional and violent. Anyone could be impersonating ice to terrorize our communities.

You might be having a hard day, but at least you're not a pathetic loser no one likes who agreed to ruin lives, murder strangers, and eat shit over and over again on frozen sidewalks, all in return for a paycheck you'll never be able to spend because you get booed out of any business you enter.

bringing this back around as infections surge—protecting yourself and others around you is a courageous act, even when it obscures one’s face. the act of obscuring the face is not inherently shameful, but using non-medical face coverings (ie gaiters) to evade consequences for disappearing people is.

Two simple* ways to stop being a cog in the fascist machine in 2026:

1. Leave substack. They fund Nazis. Don’t write, read, or subscribe. Use Ghost, Beehiiv, &c.

2. Wear an n95 in public to protect vulnerable groups & those with less ability or access to resources to recover. Give/get mutual aid:
