73% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to govt data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As ICE terrorizes cities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of Trump's major donors are private prison corporations.

Elon does not fundamentally believe that any government or governing body should be allowed to constrain or regulate him in any way and he is deploying all of the vast resources at his command to make it so

governments should act accordingly
Elon Musk is against the European Union being the European Union —he posted this after X (fka Twitter) was fined for violations of the EU’s Digital Services Act.

It is an absolutely delightful irony that the richest man in the world is universally acknowledged to be a huge fucking loser who not a single living person envies in any way at all
Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

mixed emotions being in a room of hundreds of people who want to know what to do if they see ICE on the streets of NYC: proud and hopeful that so many are willing to put their bodies on the line; deeply disturbed that it’s come to this.

As alarming as Stephen Miller's latest comments are, today's lashing out is a sign of how weak he knows the absurd, made-up legal claims are.

This is a man who knows his racism isn't an actual constitutional argument.

Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night.

Any one of us could be on the next boat that Trump bombs on a whim.

Any one of us could be detained for hours despite being a U.S. citizen.

I find it *extremely* unlikely that even this court would do something as brazenly and plainly anticonstitutional as upending birthright citizenship, but they’ve been so lawless that I can’t say it’s 0%, which it obviously ought to be.
It's real tough to look at whatever SCOTUS is doing here with birthright citizenship and their complete disregard for the plain text of the 15th amendment re: the VRA and not conclude they want to completely ignore the Reconstruction Amendments. A lawless a rogue court.
It starts with knowing the truth. Don’t allow yourselves to be gaslit into believing this is a real question.

There's an important point here which I also just made on @cnn.com.

DOJ created a make-believe armed conflict to justify the boat bombing scheme.

But in practice DoD may be coloring outside DOJ's lines and could be committing crimes even under DOJ's alternate version of legal reality.
I read the classified legal memo and disagree that military strikes on drug boats are legal (w/o congressional war authorization).

But nothing in the memo would authorize strikes on boats not even headed for the U.S. That’s just straight up murder.

DOJ must open investigation.
BREAKING: Boat blown up by U.S. military in Caribbean waters WAS NOT HEADED TO THE U.S.!

The justification for killing these people was the claim they were bringing drugs to the U.S Not true! The military says they were going to a small country near Venezuela.

Health care costs are skyrocketing, grocery prices continue to increase and electricity costs are surging.

What is the Trump Administration focused on?

Reducing free entrance days to our national parks, denigrating African Americans, and engaging in cult-like dear leader shit.
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

Yeah. All of the strikes have been just as illegal as if Iran sunk a Disney cruise because it suspected passengers carried weed.

But this one is so blatant—helpless survivors on an already-damaged ship—that it's impossible to fabricate any rationale. It's a crack worth widening.
I get this but plenty of people had been calling all the strikes murder and it hadn't broken through. This revelation did and put even Republicans on the defensive and willing to do some oversignt. My sense is that any crack the regime's implacability is a foothold.
Once the debate centers on whether the 2nd strike was legal, the first 21 strikes have been accepted as baseline. But the murder of the two survivors doesn’t make the other 21 any more legal. Selective outrage, not silence, is how authoritarianism becomes normalized @tadstoermer.bsky.social
