VANCOUVER @hootsuite.com is providing surveillance services to help ICE capture and assault civilians. This is a big no-no, blatantly profiting from repression is so gross. STAY TUNED FOR ACTION DETAILS NEXT WEEK. #resist #nokings #nogestapo

Since fascism will kill us all, let's have some fun with it at least.
Now we at least know the answer to the lingering question: The US Military will undoubtedly follow illegal orders. It's just a matter of time when it happens domestically.
“A wide range of specialists in domestic and international law regulating the use of force have argued that Mr. Trump and Pete Hegseth … are giving the military illegal orders and causing Special Operations forces to deliberately target civilians … in violation of murder laws.”
Watching fascism in the US from the outside is like watching a relative who's a chain smoker being diagnosed with cancer. You was always wondering if it would happen, maybe even tried to warn about it. But now that the diagnose is made, you are still shocked that's much worse than you ever expected.
@pastures.bsky.social If you misrepresent what I said in a post, you can at least give me a chance to respond. Not sure why you think I justified what the CIA did and if I worded it in the wrong way, I apologize. You have any right to your own opinions - just don't make false assumptions.

Heisenberg 1922: I had been firmly convinced that science...was above...political strife...Now I made the sad discovery that men of weak or pathological character can inject their twisted political passions even into scientific life. (@vermontgmg.bsky.social) www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/fleeing-on...
He's rightfully criticized for his questionable actions just a few months ago, but right now he's the only one who seems to understand the seriousness of the situation. Everyone should support him right now, at the very least to amplify the message. (You can support Mamdani AND Newsom! Fuck Purism.)
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "This party needs to wake up. These guys aren't screwing around... They're assassins when it comes to the way they weaponize grievance and the way they play politics. Enough! What more goddamn evidence do we need? They have rolled back the last half century in real time!"

ICE *already* can't meet their detainment numbers without rounding up children, veterans, people born in the U.S., people with no criminal records, people at immigration hearings, plus academics and visitors with valid visas. So who do they plan to detain with >10x the budget? The answer is: you.
If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029: - $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion - $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million - $8 billion for hiring/retention - Billions more.
