I made this video so we can talk about what ICE is actually doing in our cities. I have the details and you need to hear them. Please share this.

ICE isn't targeting criminals or even people here illegally. They are just making up the law - every day. Here's what's going on.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Schumer said the Dems will "keep fighting". Keep fighting their own voters? Keep fighting off effectiveness? Keep fighting being held accountable for anything? As far as I can tell the Democratic leadership is good at one thing only now, which is sending fundraising messages to my phone.

The Anti-Defamation League is launching an "initiative to track and monitor Mamdani administration policies." They did not do this when the Heritage Foundation, which is directly staffing and writing policies for the Trump administration, defended neo-Nazis.

The ADL has decided to treat fascists as allies and progressives as enemies. For a group that is tasked with protecting American Jews, that is a world historic fuck up.

I will never forgive these people for their moral decrepitude.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

At this point the way the ADL could do teshuvah this Yom Kippur would be to release their existing anti-hate materials and glossaries for others to use, disband, and let us rebuild an anti-antisemitism organization from the ground up. Because we really need one right about now.
SCOOP | Under pressure from Elon Musk, Donald Trump Jr. and prominent right-wing activists in the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the ADL is removing from its website the Glossary of Extremism and Hate, one of the organization’s signature anti-hate resources.
ADL deletes Glossary of Extremism under pressure from conservatives over Charlie Kirk entry
The organization stands by a separate resource that describes Kirk’s Turning Point USA’s ties to ‘extremists’

Feel free to continue arguing over the shooter's motives, but please understand that *it doesn't matter*.

There's a organized political movement that plans to suppress, arrest, or kill its political opposition. It it seeking pretexts. Anything will do. If it's not this, it'll be something else.

Do not remember the man by his words or actions. Remember him by the words and actions you invent for him, in order to justify saying the things you think you’re expected to say about him. That’s how modern “journalism” works. Truth must be subordinated to political necessity.

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

there were a million ways to write this without the "continuing his work" language, given his "work" was hateful and inflammatory extremism, division and bigotry dressed up as intellectualism and earnest conversation

Army parade ‘disappointed’ Trump, so Navy will do one too. The U.S. Navy is reportedly throwing Trump an even bigger military parade this fall, as he wasn’t satisfied by the first one.

once again, i'll suggest that perhaps the reason the broad public thinks democrats are weak is that when confronted with situations that demands that democrats loudly and proactively stand up for their values, democrats shirk from the fight

I'm Jewish and I think about antisemitism all the time. I can't tell you how fucking weird it is that Homeland Security posting literal neo-Nazi propaganda generates less discussion about the threat to Jews than a mayoral candidate who believes Palestinians are human beings.
DHS is recruiting using a not-so-subtle reference to a 1978 book from white nationalist William Gayley Simpson, Which Way Western Man?

Simpson's book was released under an imprint associated with the National Alliance, founded by Turner Diaries author William Luther Pierce.
