The idea that our demand for human rights and equality has to be packaged perfectly with a bow on top is tiresome. Hopefully this moment demonstrates how the failure to address law enforcement excess is now (through ICE actions) recognized as a threat to democracy in this country.

I wish people would stop describing things that are indisputably provable as a matter of fact as "controversial." People not liking a fact doesn't mean the fact is controversial. Reality is not malleable around our beliefs and it shouldn't be. We need to stop acting like it is.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.
The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Now's a good time to familiarize yourself with The Network State.
Trump-elon and friends are deliberately tanking the U.S. economy to diminish the value of the dollar, unmake America, and build a new country on top of it that uses cryptocurrency.
I'm not making this up — they've said this out loud

So what's the logic in starting a trade war against every country ever?
BREAKING: Trump says that starting tomorrow the U.S. will impose reciprocal tariffs on every country on Earth.
This includes 34% tariffs on China, 20% on the EU, 46% on Vietnam, 42% on Taiwan, 24% on Japan, 26% on India and more.

The government’s statement is a flex, not a confession of error. The important elements of the flex are these:
1. We send enemies to brutal foreign labor camps.
2. We decide who enemies are.
3. We may decide you are an enemy based on a secret informant, or our view of your tattoos.
