We are now assured that ICE will not be at World Cup games. From the same administration that assured us that it would release the Epstein files, get prices under control, and would not start any wars.

Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped from Minneapolis. He was my neighbor and he died in an American concentration camp. He was not "illegal," he was a human being made in the image of the divine. May his memory be a blessing, and may the rest of us fight like hell until we stop this brutality.

This is the sixth death in ICE custody in 18 days. This isn’t enforcement, it’s a system that cages people, outsources care, and shrugs when they die. Abolish ICE.

When the streets start telling the truth, it’s because the institutions won’t. What’s become painfully obvious is that ICE agents aren’t trained to make us safer. They’re just recruits who thirst for power, violence, and cruelty. [street art from around the country]

ICE is kidnapping and locking up little kids, denying them medical care, and feeding them contaminated food. They aren’t going after criminals, they are going after Black and brown people, because this isn’t about immigration, it’s about white supremacy.

While Cabinet members praise his energy and fitness, Trump sleeps. No satire in the history of film and television has ever been this on the mark.

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

Yikes

This man was part of a coalition of Reagan-era apartheid apologists who opposed U.S. opening talks with the African National Congress which he called a terrorist org. He has been a right wing activist for decades. His son was part of the Jan 6th mob and was convicted (later pardoned by Trump). 1/

So you should really watch this. Just 2 minutes. But a window into the truly radical nature of the people Trump is nominating. When pressed today, the nominee to be Ambassador to South Africa refuses to oppose reinstituting laws to prevent black people from voting in America.

A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasn’t much reporting on it. But I’m not finished thinking about it! 🧵 An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 “blast-proof” windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

🧵 Masha Gessen, who lived under Russia’s secret police, is sounding the alarm: the U.S. is now echoing those same authoritarian patterns. Raids, surveillance, fear tactics—it’s not theoretical anymore. We are watching a police state take root in real time. #OnYourSide @mashagessen.bsky.social

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed. Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

Trump's budget gives ICE more funds than most countries' militaries. ICE is now ramping up by offering signing bonuses. Meanwhile, Trump is slashing education funding and closing the Dept. of Ed. 94% of teachers have spent their own money on school supplies. Priorities.

#JordanKlepper follows MAGA's continued frustration with Trump for not releasing the #Epsteinfiles, and Trump's continued frustration with MAGA for not shutting up about it. Plus, #LaurenBoebert suggests the GOP's own underage-sex-trafficking expert, #MattGaetz. youtu.be/QVG2GxIaFsM?...

Trump is firing immigration judges. His regime is ending "temporary protected status" for thousands of people here legally. ICE is arresting asylum seekers at their hearings. The DOJ is threatening to strip immigrants of their citizenship. Trump never actually supported "legal immigration."

“…he presented his Texas ID, Social Security card and a wallet-sized birth certificate. The agents refused to believe he was a citizen and took him into custody. “I told them we had rights and asked to make a phone call. But they told us, 'You don't have rights to anything'," Galicia told the paper”

Hey, remember when the Panama Papers were released and they showed how basically every wealthy person on the planet was avoiding taxes by offshoring their money and nothing was done about it except the reporter who broke the story was murdered with a car bomb?

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
