"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.
Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

Tell me: if these dudes show up with guns in an unmarked van to grab someone, why don’t the Second Amendment fans think they should be shot?
Here's a picture that a @kuow.org photographer took in Seattle yesterday, showing the ICE officers masked up in the hallways as they waited to arrest people coming out of their hearings.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything,
Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT.

I think one of the best things I’ve learned from the internet is to give something that can be thrown away or used up as kids birthday gifts like art supplies, art project kits, or sticker books. Parents are happy to reduce clutter, kids love them, you get to give a gift.

ELECTION RESULT: A team of city council members in Rolla, Missouri, have been pushing anti-LGTB policies, including a ban on drag shows and book censorship.
Voters just ousted all three of these city councilors who were running for reelection, backing candidates backed by a local LGBT group.

The IRS agreed to share legally protected taxpayer information with DHS and ICE.
Federal law clearly protects taxpayer privacy. This agreement is illegal.
This is an assault on every single taxpayer's rights and will destroy lives.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.
