“The truth is that a tattoo identifying Tren de Aragua does not exist,” she told me. “Tren de Aragua does not use any tattoos as a form of gang identification; no Venezuelan gang does.”

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

Yes, that's part of why. But saying it's the "entire point" is one more example of media folks forgetting that facists genuinely want to hurt people and impose iron will. It is performative *and* genuine.
Saying it's only to make content downplays the hate & *actual* fascism.

One thing that is fairly clear at this point is that the entire point of whisking people out of the country with no due process in defiance of a judge's orders to put them into a foreign gulag *was so they could produce fascist content*.

Hostile states did the same thing with abortion bans. They'd introduce something absurd—like a 30 day abortion ban (which is literally something oklahoma proposed in 2022)—to pass something that is also absurd but maybe not AS absurd. We have to fight them on every front.
it's not gonna pass but they're using this one to hide the one that will pass banning trans people from restrooms in gov't buildings

Dear cis people,
It's well past the point where this kind of thing will fix everything, but I want you to take note of how easy this is.
These little freaks are soft-handed little babies that will fold like a napkin in the rain.
Light these fools up.

Texas Republican Keithself storms out of the meeting he's supposed to be running because a Democrat asked him to treat his colleague Sarah McBride with respect. These people would not last one day as a trans person.

Isn't it interesting how desperate Republican lawmakers are to create justifications to examine the genitals of children?
How hard the right wing works to create cover and legal permission for them to get to be alone in a room with naked kids?
Why do you think that is, exactly?

Can't tell you how weird and fucked up this press conference was. It was basically an ad for Tesla interspersed with the implication that protesting the company is illegal.
Trump just said he’ll label violence against Tesla dealerships as domestic terrorism. The fascism accelerates.

And this is why you should fight this kidnapping tooth and nail regardless of whether you agree with Mahmoud.
NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more.
The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law.
No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

The Senate just voted 67-32 to confirm Lori Chavez-DeRemer as labor secretary, which means a lot of Dems voted for her. During a fucking constitutional crisis.

these are the names of young Black men who were "found dead" after the Ferguson uprising following the murder of Michael Brown in 2014. Edward Crawford Jr. is in the famous image below. his death was ruled a suicide.

They have nothing. Nothing. They kidnapped a legal resident, shipped him across the country, denied access to his attorney, and are now trying to deport him. And their only justification for it is either protected speech or vague descriptions of alleged crimes committed by other people.
Reporter: What crime did Mahmoud Khalil commit to warrant his arrest and threatened deportation?
Mike Johnson: We are going to arrest your tail and send you home where you belong. This is just getting started. I appreciate free speech, I used to defend it in courts. This is far beyond the pale.
