There's no forgiving this. No living it down. It's a stain on our humanity. When all this is over, the monsters who did this should be pariahs. And the soulless thugs who cheered it on while dehumanizing Haitian immigrants should be reminded of what they did every day of their lives.

this culture is rotten. we are cruel to each other and cruel to others. we are mindlessly violent. we are literally a danger to ourselves and others

The Trump administration is apprehending and designating immigrant kids as “unaccompanied,” even as their parents in the U.S. search for them.

I want to remind everyone that the US has sanctioned members of the International Criminal Court for going through a formal legal process to identify international leaders who engaged in war crimes, making them vulnerable to arrest.

The US invasion of Venezuela is a clear violation of international law and the UN Charter. Celebrating the capture of Maduro, Donald Trump went further, calling it an “attack on sovereignty” itself. Countries the world over must work together to rein in the United States before it’s too late.

"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

Really seems less like *terrorism* as it’s usually conceived and more like part of the ongoing blowback of 1/4 of US mass shooters having military experience, with all that could entail (in this case, witnessing or committing war crimes)

On U.S. complicity in the unfolding massacres: "The U.S. should halt arms transfers to the UAE, which is supplying the RSF with the weapons used to carry out atrocities in Darfur. Failure to take action could condemn hundreds of thousands more civilians to death at the hands of genocidal forces."

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society

pelvic thrust frog is my role model, what a powerful aura

In honor of Eric Adams dropping out, I'm now resharing my all-time favorite bit of Eric Adams content for years, this thing was like my video from The Ring, where I had to get other people to watch it in order for me to stay alive enjoy www.youtube.com/watch?v=sk2W...

New, w/ @mulchy.bsky.social & @djbyrnes1.bsky.social: ICE shot & killed an immigrant in the Chicago suburbs yesterday. Then they immediately gave a misleading account of events. Chicago erupted in chaos and a father who lived here for decades is dead. This is what really happened:

NPR's Gaza producer faced Israeli military fire, private U.S. contractors pointing laser beams at his forehead and masked thieves as he tried to get food from a U.S.-supported group. By Anas Baba

JFC. Even after what the Trump regime has done to LA, the state of California, both Schiff & Padilla (!!) decided to vote with Republicans to give Trump a massive gift on crypto. Same goes for Gillibrand and NY. Also shame on Booker, Kim & Warnock. A disgraceful list - especially this week.

So @whitneycwimbish.bsky.social did a writeup of Brad Lander's arrest today at 26 Federal Plaza in NYC, focusing not just on Lander's treatment, but the treatment of immigrants inside, both in the courtroom and once they are detained. prospect.org/justice/2025...

That cute (?) little drone, I’m dying wtf

In Reagan's 1980s, America had just 35 undocumented immigrants behind bars. Today, nearly 48,000 sit in squalid detention, many thrown there by a mask-wearing U.S. secret police that smashes homes, cars and violates human rights It's time to abolish ICE. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

A group in San Diego is patrolling neighborhoods to identify potential ICE presence. They keep watch for vehicles that may belong to federal agencies, and use livestreams, radios, and social media to keep communities informed. boltsmag.org/how-vol...

ICE harassed a lawyer who provided advice to an undocumented family about their immigration case, including *shutting off his wifi so his Ring camera couldn’t record the interaction.* radleybalko.substack.com/p/the-courag...

NEW: 404 Media has seen parts of a Palantir-powered ICE database that allows for highly specific filtering of people, which allows for searches of students, people with tattoos, from specific countries, by visa status, etc: www.404media.co/inside-a-pow...

Three headlines for the same story. Here’s how to read them. 🧵

dunno how much has been translated to English, but the Brazilian philosopher Safatle wrote a lot about how Cynicism is one of the major factors in our day and age that cause "speaking truth to power" to not work. our time is one of "atheist priests" who see sincerity as a weakness.

We have had nearly two decades of panic about Free Speech on Campus and not a single case, not even the ones they made up, were as bad as what's happening now
