Northern Ireland man from Lisburn kidnapped by Trump’s Ice raids because he “looked like a Mexican”. He had the correct visa, all his documents. He’s never been in trouble with police.
Held in terrible conditions. A fellow captive couldn’t get his medication and dropped dead of a heart attack

Horrors of Trump detention centre: Lisburn man tells his story after arrest for 'looking like a Mexican'
Lee Stinton was lifted by US immigration police on an American street — in an incident he compared to a kidnapping.
Here, he tells us his story.

State Department to ban immigrants speaking ill of Charlie Kirk. VP to fly his body to Arizona on Air Force 2. Trump to award him the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Journalists getting fired for asking the right questions. We are spiraling into a dystopia beyond our imagining.

I am literally begging people writing about RFK Jr. to stop giving any credence to the idea that "MAHA" is actually about making Americans healthy - it absolutely is not. It is about shaming people with chronic health conditions and substituting snake oil for science.

You know how evil you have to be to vote for a policy that lets the U.S. deport people to countries they aren’t even from? That’s the kind of shit the Nazis did. And these justices read it and said, “Approved.”

Super late to the party on this, but I don’t think it matters what kind of bullets that cop shot the Australian reporter with. Cops have no business shooting reporters in the first place.

Ah, nothing says “freedom” like rubber bullets to journalists, horses trampling protesters, and arresting people for filming cops
But sure-tell me more about “law and order”
Trump deployed the state National Guards and 500 Marines to LA
Local police did the rest.
And city leaders? Busy drafting

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.
Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

There is a type of liberal/left bleakness that manifests itself in a compulsion to announce that nothing that doesn't fix everything means anything. The people who feel the need to keep expressing that are victims of our time (and this medium). But they are also ultimately enemies of improvement. >
