Hi it’s Meg

Oh so a country *can* choose not to make the same mistake twice

@teamtalaricohq.bsky.social @jamestalarico.bsky.social use this blueprint when talking about trans rights bc it's always bait. they do not care about trans rights, or any human rights. they want to control women's rights and this is the foothold to do that 10 toes down. support trans rights 100%

The solution to this dilemma is for Democrats running for office to NOT GO ON FOX NEWS AND SAY THEY AGREE WITH REPUBLICANS ABOUT DISCRIMINATION BEING GOOD!

if you are a gay icon STAY INSIDE!!! it’s DANGEROUS OUT HERE!!!!!

All of these cases are basically litmus tests for any Dem nominee. Are immigrants Americans? Do trans Americans deserve human rights? Are corporations superhumans who get to spend endlessly on elections to put whoever they want into power? These are simple questions with simple answers.

In a sane world (an alt reality) today's dissents would sufficient to warrant Thomas, Gorsuch and Alito's impeachment and removal from office. If you defy the plain words, meaning, intent, history, precedent of a black letter constitutional injunction u are abusing your power and should be removed.

Again, please share. In every aspect of American history you will run smack dab into the critical contributions of Black people. It’s not Black history. It’s American history. Trying to erase it is a fool’s errand. We live it every day. time.com/5836444/blac...

Sen. Ruben Gallego blowing the other Arizona Congressional members out of the water here with $35,200 in donations from ICE contractors (all from Palantir). Rep. Juan Ciscomani is next with $12,007 in donations from Palantir and private prison companies CoreCivic and GEO Group.

And sure you can pretend race isn't a factor, but the reality is that white people in every generation voted for this mess. And until we talk about that, we're going to be running in a circle.

The best time to impeach Donald Trump was 9 years ago. The second best time is now.

The whole thing about Democrats searching for a winning message for the midterms is infuriating because it is staring them in the face: Rule of Law — People who do illegal shit should face consequences. For insider trading. For illegal wars. For ignoring court orders. For being a pedophile.

GOP: the mail is secure enough to receive your photo ID, social security card, your debit and credit cards, your stimulus checks, and your tax returns Also GOP: the mail is not safe enough for voting

For clarity on the current situation…

Gallego is an act tough on Twitter or CNN guy, which gets him good national coverage but then he’ll do shit like co-sponsor the Laken Riley Act, fundraise with Marc Andreessen, take AI money, and say shit like he supports sending people to CECOT as long as they get due process.

Ciscomani- (202) 225-2542, (520) 881-3588 Kelly- (202) 224-2235, (520) 670-6334 Gallego- (202) 224-4521, (480) 697-3600

Please keep writing about Nurul Amin Shah Alam. They killed this man. It's a system wide problem that resulted in his death. Every step of the way it was a travesty of justice. This is how immigration law intersects with criminal law. ICE and CBP. Read this and ask why do we fund this? Why?

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

ICE at the polls! Bannon is basically yelling “fire” in a crowded theater here. His objective is to cause chaos (and suppress votes on the left). And it’s already working. This threat works on multiple levels and doesn’t have to be “real” to serve its purpose. Let me explain & offer some advice.

@maddow.bsky.social Why, Arizona has a population of 122 peeps (2020).Today 10 showed up to protest. Way to go Why!

Just over the past 72 days, two non-white Democratic members of Congress have been attacked, one of them by a Trump supporter who threatened him with deportation. Does JD Vance have anything to say? After all, the GOP VP is always so keen to attack "left-wing" political violence.

Cue @georgetakei.bsky.social meme: “The very first rubber dick to touch government-issued leather boots triggered a full-blown chemical weapons response. That is not metaphor… That is a literal sentence that happened in America in 2026.” #fuckice #ohmy www.closertotheedge.net/p/the-dildo-...

Some thoughts: 1. The deadline for nominating a person or group for the Nobel Peace Prize is Feb. 1. 2. History professors are qualified nominators. 3. The people of Minnesota have been awe-inspiringly peaceful in the face of state violence. 4. He would be so mad.

They’ve been detained for eight months in horrific conditions. The water is putrid. Mothers are forced to mix baby formula with water that stinks. There are bugs in the food.

Trump is nothing if not ready to sacrifice anyone and anything in order to save his own ass and the single most important thing that could happen right now is someone convincing him that the biggest driver of his unpopularity is not just Bovino and Noem but Stephen Miller personally

The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents border patrol officers at the National Border Patrol Council, calls on Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller to resign or be fired

I don't want to hear another word about "reforming" ICE. I want you to run in the midterms on removing every dollar of funding for ICE and impeaching every fucking administration official you can get your hands on.

Lifting this up again. A huge problem now is that there’s a giant slush fund for ICE & CBP separate from annual funding — that Trump can continue to use even during a shutdown. Ds *must* make rescinding those pots of money the price of any future funding deals, as Rs did w/ IRS money from the IRA.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

Abolish ICE is now the moderate minimum position, Prosecute ICE is where Dems should be at next.

The thing is that Gallego doesn’t care if those “criminals” are afforded due process given that he co-sponsored the Laken Riley Act but nice quote

People are always ready to donate to $ for food. For reasons that don't always make sense but seem v. American to me, they're less willing to donate to help make rent But that's what families targeted by ICE in MN need right now: $ to make rent when they can't leave to work givebutter.com/nhn2026

He really is doing all of it.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

There is no compromising with this regime, because regimes don't compromise. These people are fascists. Fight fascists always. No playing to their language or moved goalposts. No taking their statements as legitimate and reporting them. And then PROSECUTE THEM. Every last one of them.

Heads up, Mesa. This was also confirmed by Phoenix Rapid Response. You can report any ICE sightings to them in the Phoenix metro at 480-506-7437. Folks in Tucson can report ICE activity at 520-221-4077.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Second, and probably most importantly, it's tactically wrong. "No point discussing political opposition to fascism, there won't be elections anyway" cedes victory to your enemies. It's defeatism and nihilism.

New column today: zeteo.com/p/trump-us-r...

Take Trump literally and seriously. Banish into the sun all the hacks who told us we were being hysterical & radical. Ignore them forever. This is a white nationalist regime in service of an international broligarchy that won't stop until it drinks all our milkshakes. Venezuela was the start...

In our name, with our money, ostensibly for oil, but mostly because we have a president who's addicted to power and attention and needs to deflect from being friends with the world’s most famous pedophile. Shame on these fucking monsters who run my country. They need out.

Where’s Congress?

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
