Kidnapping an activist and jailing him in the middle of the night is a brazen act of authoritarianism.

Punishing dissent by revoking legal status is a dangerous precedent to set.
NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.

Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.

His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

Is this the "free market" Bezos is so desperate to defend?

So it’s a herd of cattle, a gaggle of geese, and with this latest fuckery, let’s say, it’s a murder of bros. Why? Because the number of states- all with bro governors, that have proposed charging folks who have abortions with 1st degree homicide, has just climbed to FIVE.
