Trump quotes as he meets the press after his sit down with NYC Mayor elect ZohranMamdani

“He said a lot of my voters actually voted for him! And I’m ok with that.”

“I’ve been called much worse than a despot. So it’s really not that insulting.” (Forgives whatever Mamdani has said about him)

THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.

I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.

A blockbuster investigation by the AP, out today.

So much in it, give it a read, but starts with: "The U.S. Border Patrol is monitoring millions of American drivers nationwide in a secretive program to identify and detain people whose travel patterns it deems suspicious."
Border Patrol is monitoring US drivers and detaining those with 'suspicious' travel patterns

US repression right now is very strong, venomous, multi headed, rapidly mutating

A great meditation, scholarly look at this history:

The Red Scare Is American Past and Present
If we want to understand how we arrived in this authoritarian moment in 2025, we need to understand one of the central pathways that brought us here: McCarthyism.

Quick blitzes now?
Forces limited, only have so many that can do multiple long “deployments”

Perhaps Steven Miller wants the goons moving around hunting Latinos, enraging Libs for cinematic effect even tho Chicago style longer stints are much more resource intensive and impractical?
The Mecklenburg sheriff said CBP quit Charlotte today. CBP neither confirmed nor denied. I asked the sheriff their source.

"I just know federal officials. We actually don't have any information. We don't receive any info from CBP. All we got was that they are leaving. Authoritative?"

It is not.

Last night was an impressive display of psychotic nihilism. A jarring contrast to months of creative and inspiring actions

Another nerve grinding use of the council’s vaunted 6pm public mtg time. “We want our beloved community members to come speak to us.”

Well nobody wants whatever that was.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

“Graham said she heard from clerks in other counties in NY who had recently received similar msg’s. It is unclear how widespread the directive is or if the new guidance applies beyond New York. It does not appear that the cancellation of the ceremonies will impact the actual naturalization process”

President “quiet, piggy” and his movement have a high standard of conduct we all need to attempt to live up to
New: Reuters has tallied job losses, suspensions and investigations stemming from the reaction to Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination. Its findings: More than 600 Americans have been punished, and the figure is likely to be an under-count.
