This is fucked up. Anyone who says other countries are worse than America can go fuck themselves. Any country is better than this shithole. I'm sorry I was born here.
This story is horrific and terrifying. Then, near the end, this:

"The reality became clear: Ice detention isn’t just a bureaucratic nightmare. It’s a business. These facilities are privately owned and run for profit."

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

They're staging a power grab.

The chaos.
The mass chaotic firings & funding pauses (The Park Service! The weather service! Research on Alzheimers & cancer)
The firehose of lies.
Attacking Medicaid & Social Security.

They want 2 things.
To funnel $ to the ultra-wealthy.
Chaos to mask the funneling

And the fact that it can be assimilated like this is just testament to the profound dehumanization of Palestinians that suffuses American public discourse."
We all need @peterbeinart.bsky.social's clarity on this:

Every Democratic Senator voted to confirm Rubio as Secretary of State. Every one of them should publicly demand that Rubio fire this man.

Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii): "If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law." You can't "storm a building and tak[e] over the servers" to kill off a govt agency.

Trump has "done more to destabilize things across the planet" in the last two weeks than any president in memory.
