Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

If you're a Democrat, you're a sucker if you imagine this agency has anything to do with immigration. It is--and aspires to be!--a fascist paramilitary goon squad. You should start saying so and lay the groundwork for starving it of funding when you take power

One of the most successful propaganda campaigns of our time is the right-wing claim that liberals dominate the media. The right has pushed this myth for decades on Fox and other outlets. You know about it because RIGHT-WING MEDIA HAVE A HUGE MEGAPHONE. My thread. 1/10 🧵

To me, the Christmas message is that we should care for the needy and vulnerable. I don't understand people who think it means we should smash the car windows of immigrants, tear-gas neighborhoods and zip-tie children.
May federal agents lose their masks and find their souls.

Look how Bari Weiss’ The Free Press wrote about CECOT — the El Salvador megaprison Trump shipped people to — just months before she stopped the 60 Minutes segment on it:

Important lesson here is always make them go through every step. One person may not be able to stop the fascist train alone. But everytime everyone of us does something to slow it down, it adds up, and gives more opportunities for others.
Serious credit to Gov. Pritzker, Mayor Johnson, and a bunch of people in and around Chicago who stood up to illegal, unjust, un-American, rights-violating anti-immigrant (or sometimes just anti-brown-people) federal operations.

If they weakly acquiesce like some others did, courts don’t take it up.

"There is no reality in which these strikes are legal, moral, or remotely consistent with a nation that claims to adhere to democratic principles. The strikes are lawless, reckless, and barbaric, and the administration’s shifting justifications are a morass of misdirection and legal shell games."

There’s a specific mechanism in authoritarian movements that we’re seeing play out in real-time across American media and tech. It’s a simple rule: "If we cannot co-opt it, we must destroy it."

It is the logic of "scorched earth." It's the logic of the Nero Decree and it's happening right now. 🧵

SCOOP: The Trump administration is providing the names of all travelers passing through U.S. airports to immigration officials in search of people with deportation orders, a substantial expansion of government efforts to draw on data to hunt down immigrants.

at some point here as Trump's mental/physical health fails you're going to see a slight pivot among the corporations that supported him (now that they've gotten tax cuts and brutal deregulation), in the form of a faint outline of a backbone now that his value has been all used up

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

It’s very funny to me that countries are trying to pass laws banning teens from social media until they’re older and can “handle it” as if the last decade hasn’t been about watching rich middle aged men nuke their brains on Twitter and then run the USA via shitpost.
Dude. Yes. Alito and Thomas are of course the standout examples, but all of the Republican justices have tells in their writing and their questioning indicating that they are, to varying degrees, marinating their brains in dumb bitch juice
My theory, fwiw, is that Supreme Court Justices are not immune to Twitter brain poisoning. I suspect all six have horrific information environments and have therefore lost the ability to understand the people who don't agree with them.

"Individual liberty" is when conservatives decide everything. Their concept of liberty is just domination, not freedom to do what they want, but freedom to force everyone else to do what they want. bsky.app/profile/donm...
The only way to assure individual liberty is to hand unprecedented governmental power to the guy engaged in blatant democratic backsliding
Kavanaugh: Broad delegations to unaccountable agencies are dangerous for individual liberty! We have used the major questions doctrine to prevent agencies from overreaching.

Can't remember if it was this bad before COVID but I'm seeing an alarming spreading of what I'll call Airport Behavior to other public places. Obliviousness to other people's existence, ineptitude at navigating the environment. "Is this your first time at the grocery store" type stuff

Major media hate to say Trump “lied.” Here's a thread on what they say instead.
Trump is “inverting the facts” (NYT) …
Because he has a “complicated relationship with the truth” (NBC) …
With a “mix of bullish optimism and hyperbole” (Reuters) …
And is “a master of the art of exaggeration” (AP) …

Despite rising tensions and the alleged closure of Venezuelan airspace, U.S. deportation flights to Venezuela have continued on their usual Wed/Fri schedule. The 74th such flight of the year (EAL8280) is currently en route from Phoenix, AZ to Caracas.
