Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

BROWN children. INDIGENOUS children. NATIVE children. This is our country. This is what they DO. White men came here and did this and do this and want to do it LEGALLY AGAIN to our children. It's horrifying. America is disgusting. It is a disgusting nation, a disgusting culture, a disgusting people.
BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families.

The Senate must vote no on this horrific bill.

When do we get to ask why Egypt is sending Russian dissidents deported from the U.S. to Putin and why Qatar is sending Afghans deported by the U.S. to the Taliban and Kuwait is sending Iranians deported by the U.S. to Tehran
UPDATE: after departing BWI Intl at 21:08 EST, the ICE removal flight that has now been confirmed to be carrying Iranian and Russian nationals is expected to arrive in Cairo at 7:08 AM EST. ICE flight monitor will be tracking-follow this thread for further updates.

I cannot wrap my head around how cruel and destructive this is.

This is what comes of years of rhetoric demonizing and blaming the unhoused on the part of politicians (including big city Democrats) instead of seeing them as neighbors who need help
This is far worse than anyone expected.

Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.

All as mass internment camps are being built.

I don't think it's cowardice. I think that they are OK with what the GOP is doing. The sooner folks reconcile with this, the better.

I hope people connect that the open fascism we see in USA today & the speed with which it is swallowing our institutions could only happen if our politicians had spent decades engaged in a bipartisan effort to build a healthy infrastructure for fascism in the 1st place.

You can’t just dial the knob back a bit & have it all be somewhat tolerable again. Anyone who thinks that is deluding themselves, way behind & honestly is a hindrance.

Gotta break the whole thing now.

Not to diminish the incredible acts of Lakota resistance a decade prior, including handing the US military its only loss on its own soil.

Or to suggest that the struggle is over given the continued occupation of the Black Hills.
Hey @nytimes.com Pine Ridge reservation was established before the Wounded Knee massacre. The victims were traveling to camp with Red Cloud, who was cooperating with the govt. They weren’t ”resisting.”

But fact checking won’t launder a massacre I guess.

Fortunately, history does not work as Hegseth seems to believe. It is never "settled" and the government cannot (at least for now!) impose its interpretation of events on the rest of us--especially an interpretation so at odds with the historical record. 6/

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

Too many of you are showing that you've never been stopped and searched on the street.

Your ID card discourse is myopic.

Asking for your papers is one of those 'discretionary' things and guess who the police use their discretion on?

first step: delete actual study identifying number 1 cause of domestic terrorism
second step: define as domestic terrorism everything that is the opposite of domestic terrorism
"Violent conduct includes anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, anti-Christianity; support for the overthrow of the United States Government; extremism on migration, race, gender; hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and morality."

this is bad. very bad.

We now know the Dallas ICE shooters name, Joshua Jahn, but we still don't know the victims names because the authorities don't really care about them.
"Anti ICE" seems like something and an ICE agent with a blue sharpie would consider anti ICE in nature

97% of the purported usefulness of LLMs instantly vanishes if you take any interest in learning things for yourself.

In honor of LLMs, I completely fabricated that number.

Because this is doing numbers, I am obligated to reiterate that although the United States has lapsed into competitive authoritarian governance, the scale of its descent and the duration of the regime are entirely determined by what we as Americans do right now.

If you cower, it will get worse.
