There’s no reforming this.

There’s no getting local cops to “enforce the law” (whatever that means) against this

I have not been impressed by @jpbrammer.bsky.social’s newsletter. I felt it just wasn’t for me. But because I recognized his name, I picked up his book. Folks, I love it. His writing is sincere and I relate to his stories and his storytelling. I have been savoring the chapters.

Do you understand why your “All Lives Matter” accommodation is so objectionable? We know how these MAGA folks think about us, what they would allow, and do to us if they can get away with it.
They mean to be as insulting to Black people, as dismissive of our lives, as resistance to our status as full citizens in this country as they can be.

There is no common ground to be had at the expense of our sisters & daughters’ lives and our dignity as a people.

Or, as Dean Edell put it once, we've gotten so safe we've started worrying about the things keeping us safe more than the monsters they are keeping us safe from.

MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen.

Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy.

She’s lived here 48 years.
They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her.

She. Is. A. Citizen.

Corporate media claims Wes Moore is anti-reparations, or worse, lied that he was pro-reparations to get elected.

In reality Gov Moore vetoed the bill arguing that enough studies have been done, and it’s time to move forward on the actual process of reparations.

Corporate media continues to fail us

The way we were treated at Delaney Hall is almost unbelievable. ICE shoved me, manhandled @repbonnie.bsky.social, and arrested Mayor Baraka.

They disrespected us and tried to stop us from conducting the oversight we’re elected to do. But we’ll never back down in our fight for what is right.

New from 404 Media: the Signal clone the Trump administration uses was just hacked. TeleMessage makes a modified version of Signal that archives messages for government agencies, Waltz used it. A hacker got some users' messages, group chats. Hugely significant breach www.404media.co/the-signal-c...

Yes. I do not want to ever 'move on' again. Every time we turn the cheek, overlook the criminality, absolve the sins, they come back worse.

I want punishment. Deterrence. Retribution. Err on the side of excess, not lenity.

Anything less is asking them to come back worse yet again.
Democrats should be running on:

Call your rep, call your senators. No matter the party.
Every single Democrat in Congress should be demanding the resignation of Waltz and Hegseth. Every single one.

This is a massive scandal. There should be a serious price to pay.

AND THERE IS ZERO DOWNSIDE FOR EVEN THE MOST SCAREDY-CAT CONGRESSPERSON.

Academic who deals at the far right fascism and authoritarianism here. A fifth or more of Germans voted explicitly for a Nazi party that makes them not just extreme but Nazis, hope that helps Sam.
I know you’re doing this to try and help your friends in the Nazi party but do try harder this is sad.
One-fifth of German voters now support a party that all others consider too extreme to govern with.

I don't believe one-fifth of Germans are fascist/racist/any other -ist, but they are concerned. It's time to have the uncomfortable conversations that voters demand.
