@casten.house.gov @seancasten.bsky.social maybe start here and then let's talk about how this helps no one. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t...
In a response to the long-debunked "retail theft epidemic," the House voted 348 to 60 for a bill that would exacerbate mass incarceration by sweeping more low-level crime into the federal system and exacerbate the criminalization of poverty. TY to the 59 Democrats who voted NO (see below).

"But we do need the core aspect of them that makes Klein so uncomfortable: Russell’s expectation that those who relate to others as though they are not worthy of respect ought to be treated with the regard that orientation deserves." Bring shame back into the discussion. This was an excellent read!
"Common decency stigmatizes people that do not participate in it—removes them from voluntary association. We indeed have to live with one another, but terms and conditions apply." me on why Ezra Klein should be ashamed / why shame is Good Actually www.bostonreview.net/articles/how...

Why the fuck are we allowing this? I mean truly, this is unhinged and dangerous. Get the kids far away from this monster and invoke the 25th amendment. Congress is full of pathetic cowards.
Trump to a group of kids: "We can't let Iran have a nuclear weapon. You might be too young for this. They probably know better than most people. But you can't let a bunch of lunatics have a nuclear weapon. So we just hit records on the Dow."
I would say he said the quiet part out loud, but at this point there are no repercussions for blatantly diminishing voting rights.
Rep. Buddy Carter calls for Georgia officials to toss out already cast votes: "We need to suspend the House races and go ahead and redistrict so that Georgians would be represented in the next two years by people who represent their values. Georgia is a Republican state. We need to remember that."

I do not remember the last time I laughed this hard, considering the hellscape we live in currently. Weighing your own shit, eating meat 3 meals a day for 3 weeks, loading up on cholesterol 48 hours before sex. It has it all!

I like this because it articulates the conservative concept of freedom in a nutshell. You have the freedom to do x, except you don't, because I don't want you to. bsky.app/profile/atru...
JD Vance: "You know what? My wife has the right to skydive, but she doesn't jump out of an airplane because she and I have an agreement she's not gonna do that, because I don't want my wife jumping out of an airplane."

This. We are a country of "rugged individualism," ie, if it doesn't happen to me it doesn't exist/matter. Trying very hard not to fall into a pit of despair because we need all the people who are horrified to keep fighting.
If you could convince Americans that destroying Iranian civilization & killing millions of innocent Iranians *wouldn't* have any blowback, wouldn't affect their lives directly ... how many do you think would really protest? How many would even vote against it? How many would care?

Hey-o. Dick Durbin just walked out on me at a vigil for a disappeared man who is also a caregiver for his 2 younger siblings (petition for release here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/br...) abdicating himself of any responsibility around ICE. We deserve better. VOTE STRATTON TO ABOLISH ICE!
Whoa whoa whoa...you mean they lied about Tren de Aragua just so they could justify terrorizing Black and Brown people?
NEW: The DHS arrest records make no mention of the Tren de Aragua gang even though officials repeatedly cited its presence in the building as motivation for the raid, in which agents descended from a Blackhawk helicopter and zip-tied U.S. citizens.
The U.S. Constitution is a nonstarter, apparently.
Rep. Mark Harris: "Some of these things are nonstarters. Having judicial warrants? To me, hat's a nonstarter. Being able to make off their mask, putting them at risk? That's a nonstarter. I would say anything that's going to hamstring the work of ICE, that's just not going to go anywhere."

Schools are closed because the government is terrorizing the community. We cannot minimize this.
My daughter's school in Richfield, MN (adjacent to Minneapolis) is closing tomorrow due of out-of-control federal agents. Fourth graders spent the week building walls of snow at recess to protect their classmates from ICE. This isn't about immigration enforcement, it's about terror.

We still do not know the names of the ICE agents who killed Silverio Villegas González on September 12, 2025 outside of Chicago. If you have any information, please reach out on Signal at @tpf.99.
Traffic is flowing again, large number of people have dispersed. A small crowd is lingering at the site of the shooting. Media doing interviews. A sign for Silverio Villegas González, shot and killed by ICE behind the wheel of his car outside Chicago in September, sits in the snow and flowers.

After the killing of Ms Good, Greg Bovino of the CPB led a raid on a Minneapolis HS. An official there said: They don’t care. They’re just animals,” I’ve never seen people behave like this.” All MPLS schools now closed for the week. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

They aren't welcome here either.
ICE isn’t welcome here. ICE shouldn’t exist. Every elected official must be clear-eyed about the fact that ICE is a threat to our entire country and must be abolished. As we in the Twin Cities know too well, our taxes are going to fund an entity that is attacking our neighbors; this has to end.
One, subscribe. Two, if you live where ICE is present demand action from your elected officials. Ban their staging on government property and any data sharing, require that local PD be present at all reported sightings, push your state lawmakers to ban their face masking and provide ID.
NEW — Keep in mind, details are still unfolding in Minneapolis, where an ICE agent shot and killed a woman who witnesses say was a legal observer. Dozens of protestors are gathering at the scene. thetriibe.com/2026/01/live...
