BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

"If you got arrested then you weren't protesting peacefully" is a lie. Stop spreading it.

Of course the LA Times makes it look like a full on riot instead of showing that the mostly peaceful protesters were literally and constantly assaulted by ICE agents. The majority of fires that were started weren’t by the public but by ICE firing into the crowds and canisters starting fires. 🧵

ABC suspended reporter Terry Moran for a now-deleted tweet calling Stephen Miller a “world class hater.” They said it violates their standards. Here’s a thought…maybe your standards should allow calling out white nationalism and hate when you see it.

These militarist ICE raids are the actual government oppression that right wingers dreamed was happening during Covid. They are not up in arms like they were about masking, go figure.

Is anyone really that shocked to learn that NRA members didn’t really believe that “stand up to tyranny” stuff?
And that the organization mainly exists to taunt victimized families and communities after mass shootings?

While many Americans were still asleep, Republicans in the House of Representatives passed Trump’s huge, horrible mega-bill.
It might be the worst, most damaging piece of legislation I’ve seen in my nearly 60 years in politics.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

I stumbled upon this timely article from 2023. Research sheds light on how the Nazis targeted trans people, a history often overlooked and one that seems to be repeating itself.
Historians are learning more about how the Nazis targeted trans people
Only in the past few years have the stories and experiences of trans people in Nazi Germany come to light.

Two Transgender Girls, Six Federal Agencies. How Trump Is Trying to Pressure Maine Into Obedience.
Maine said it wouldn’t break state law to follow President Donald Trump’s order barring transgender girls from playing girls’ sports. Then came a barrage of investigations and threats targeting the state’s federal funding.
