Texans can tell you that James is a decent person and Kenny needs the South Park treatment. Possibly the most corrupt and criminal person to hold office in the history of Texas.

here's today's post: "James Talarico is a boss" — and Ken Paxton fucking sucks. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

You cannot negotiate with terrorists.

“They’re arguing that they need to negotiate policy changes. You cannot negotiate with liars. You cannot negotiate with murderers. You cannot negotiate with fascists.” — CT Rep Jillian Gilchrest, US Congress Candidate, on Dems funding ICE for 2 more weeks This is the energy.

AT&T needs to go completely bankrupt for this, CB too. #CutThemOff

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

This administration did not do this Nazi shit on its own. EVERYONE who participated or enabled needs to be prosecuted and tried for *treason*.

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com

This lawless administration is now operating under the “what are you gonna do about it” doctrine. A John Roberts creation.

This is part of a deliberate plan to murder, kidnap, and torture Americans by this administration. BOTH Democrats and Republicans are complicit. It's time to clean house America.

It was an extrajudicial execution. Anyone who defends this is defending a police state.

Translation: We are Nazis. We will kill you and you get to shut up and die.

Kash Patel: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have a right to break the law." (Pretti was carrying a gun legally.)

All of Elons assets need to be seized and he should be tried and executed for treason.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Never in my life have the police been more brazenly anti public safety and pro authoritarian state than under Dump 2.0. Now more than ever #ACAB

State troopers with batons and what looks to be an LRAD on a truck deployed to original blockade area, where everyone has dispersed. They say they’re going to “clear the whole area” and that the nonexistent people are “an unlawful assembly” subject to arrest. Unclear if they’ll be moving in further.

You are a corporate Democrat shill and everyone knows it Brian. Fuck off.

Brian Tyler Cohen@briantylercohen.bsky.social

Midterms are this year, and the Republicans in control right now have all been willful participants in Trump’s schemes to benefit himself. These people have put on a master class in exactly why they should be voted out of office.

A choice that Republicans made a long time ago and the majority of Dems have gone along with.

Rio Tazewell@riotazewell.bsky.social

Republicans are cutting healthcare, protecting insurance company profits, and leaving families to pay the price. Higher costs. Fewer doctors. Worse outcomes. This isn’t policy failure, it’s a choice. #RepublicanHealthcareDisaster

Because they are in on the grift.

It is important to acknowledge who is standing up and who is just trying to get by. Every day Americans are standing up while the powerful are mostly standing by. Why aren't law firms standing up and sending lawyers to Minneapolis. Why aren't the corporations speaking out? Why isn't the media?

Republicans hate her because she shows them so clearly what they do not possess. Competence and excellence.

Under Lina Khan, the FTC stopped anticompetitive mergers, cracked down on junk fees, and protected working people. She's one of my heroes — and has a bright future guiding the Democratic Party through the Trumpian wilderness. Join us for an in-depth conversation.

Mamdani speaks truth and this is why the establishment Democrats hate him.

Acyn@acyn.bsky.social

Mamdani: I am in support of abolishing ICE… I'm tired of waking up every day and seeing a new image of someone being dragged out of a car, dragged out of their home, dragged out of their life.

“Cowardice asks the question, ‘Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question, ‘Is it politic?’ But conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’ And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.” MLK Jr
