Federal Secret Police and plainclothes ICE agents kidnap multiple people from a neighborhood in Chicago. They then deploy teargas and brutally beat neighbors who come out to express their concern.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

One week in, and we're having to carry papers like in the Soviet Union

ICE is trying to deport Native American people to Mexico. This one from the Mescalero Apache Tribe.

That's right. People indigenous to the United States, tribal members. ICE is trying to remove them from the US.

This is the second verified incident I've heard about.

We were here 1st.
#ICE
On Mescalero Apache Tribe letterhead: MESCALERO Apache Tribe P.O. Box 227 108 Central Avenue Mescalero, New Mexico 88340 TRIBE Office: (575) 464-4494 Fax: (575) 464-9220 STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT THORA WALSH-PADILLA ON IMMIGRATION INCIDENT INVOLVING A TRIBAL MEMBER As of 3:45 PM this afternoon, the Tribe verified only a single incident where an ICE January 23, 2025 Mescalero, NM Last night and throughout the day today, I received multiple calls from concerned Mescalero Apache Tribal Members in relation to rumors of incidents involving Tribal Members and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. agent questioned a Tribal Member in a public place in Ruidoso. This incident occurred yesterday. ICE agents began questioning a family standing in line in front of the Tribal member. The family was escorted outside. Then, an ICE agent still inside the public place approached the Tribal Member in Spanish. The Tribal Member responded by stating the Tribal Member spoke English. The ICE agent asked the Tribal Member for a passport. The Tribal Member presented a picture of a New Mexico Driver's License and a Tribal identification card. The ICE agent did not continue questions at this point and exited. While this is the only incident we have been able to verify. Tribal leadership is actively working with the New Mexico Congressional Delegation to ensure that the rights of Tribal Members are protected. To be safe, be aware of your surroundings, let family members/friends know where you are, and keep identification with you at all times. If possible, then carry multiple forms of identification (driver's license, state-issued identification card, Tribal identification card, Certificate of Indian Blood, etc.). Thora Walsh-Padilla President

BOOM! Bishop Mariann Budde has responded to her critics who told her to apologize to Donald Trump.

“I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.”

Smash that repost if you agree she owes Trump ZERO apologies!! 🦋

The tradegy of the "tradegy of the commons" is that the author used concerns about environmental scarcity to justify racial discrimination.

Environmental sustainability cannot exist without environmental justice.

The Tragedy of "The Tragedy of the Commons"
The man who wrote one of environmentalism’s most-cited essays was a racist, eugenicist, nativist and Islamaphobe—plus his argument was wrong

I got to talk to @jesspish.bsky.social about her excellent and all too relevant book about sheriffs, for @publicbooks.bsky.social. Check it out!

New at PB, @dnbrgr.bsky.social chats with @JessPish.bsky.social about her new book “The Highest Law in the Land” (@DuttonBooks.bsky.social), which investigates the troubling role that sheriffs play in American life, law enforcement, and national politics.

So, Trump went on tv and said he was going to deport children who were born here, consider investigating Joe Biden and pardon (on day one) those who violently attacked our Capitol in HIS name on January 6th

Things the vast majority of Americans are against by the way.

A follower suggested we need an election autopsy. Here is my autopsy as a Black woman in America. Did any Black woman in your circle think this was a good idea this summer when they start floating it? Probably not but we got in line and we thought maybe y’all were better than this. But you’re not.
kimberlygriffin.bsky.social Kimberly Griffin @kimberlygriffin.bsky.social · Nov 30
Autopsy: This country will not elect a woman anytime soon. A Black woman is even less likely. She made very few missteps. Going on Joe Rogan wasn’t going to get her elected. National media sane washed her opponent. This isn’t the Democrat’s fault or her fault. This country is profoundly broken.

Looks like HR 9495, which a Trump administration could use to destroy nonprofit journalism and other civil society groups he opposes, is back on the House calendar.

Contact your reps.

unfortunately House Republicans seem determined to pass HR 9495 before the end of the year. the bill is already back on the calendar for next week - Monday afternoon markup in the House Rules Committee: rules.house.gov/media/announ...

Not to distract you all from the Pete Hegseth DOD news, but the House is voting now on HR 9495, the bill that could allow Trump's Treasury Dept to unilaterally revoke tax-exempt status from non-profits it deems as "supporting terrorism."
