Only two ways to make any of this matter:
1. Make the GOP congress scared.
AND
2. Make the oligarchs scared.
Heavy emphasis on the 'and'.

An ICE employee was among 16 men arrested after trying to solicit a minor for sex in Bloomington, Minnesota, police say
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges said during a press conference. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

Let's be clear: all we want from CBP, ICE, etc, is due process as required by the US constitution.
Attacking and 'disappearing' people via racial profiling is a heartbreaking travesty of the law, and a betrayal of public trust.
.. Esp since most of these people can't afford to fight back in court.

What is the Intel that's powering these ICE & CBP raids? I mean, I know they're literally racially profiling as well, but... SOMEBODY PLEASE SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THE INTEL.
Oh and I'll ask again, where tf are the lawsuits?

Politics is commercial but it isn't _commerce_.
So at some point, the parties quickly become shades of the same color, not distinct competitors. You go from choosing between red vs blue, to red vs blue vs purple vs crimson vs goddamn periwinkle.

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

In 2001, terrorists tried to destroy the White House with a hijacked plane. 24 years later, the president of the United States accepted a plane from people funding terrorists and destroyed the White House himself.🔄

One of the most painful lessons of the past 12 months is that America is more stupid, misogynoirist and systemically porous than any of us knew.
This administration is like a virus that exploits every single crack in the system, including the complicity of what was once known as the "free press".
