I'm past trying to convince national Democrats of stuff, and posting on social media wouldn't do that anyway. But I really believe that there is an immense latent appetite in this country to BURY these fucking bullies, here and elsewhere, and that doing so is work many people want to be a part of.

JUST IN: Deputy Assistant to the President and "Counterterrorism Czar" Sebastian Gorka says anyone advocating for due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be viewed as "aiding and abetting a terrorist" and be federally charged. (h/t Philip Germain)

This may be one of the worst moments in history to fetishize the law or the quality of being law-abiding.

Aside from being a terrible idea, it’s hard to imagine that this is actually true. There’s no quick or easy way to digitize 14,000 tapes, it’s far more likely that they just threw them in the trash or didn’t do anything at all.
it's the big horrible things, but it's also the small stupid shit www.404media.co/doge-gsa-mag...
Another Masterful Gambit: DOGE Moves From Secure, Reliable Tape Archives to Hackable Digital Records
DOGE claimed it saved "$1M per year" by converting 14,000 magnetic tapes to digital storage.

This is going to get worse, not better. Never underestimate the American public’s thirst for performative cruelty towards The Other: defendants, foreigners, anyone they’ve been conditioned to see as less than human. We’re the country that made lynchings into picnics.

After repeatedly violating every single commitment under the ceasefire, Israel is now fully resuming the genocide of the already destroyed Gaza concentration camp.
The world is watching.
History will remember who stood on the sidelines of this unspeakable atrocity.
