These are concentration camps. And these are the numbers they're comfortable sharing.

I obtained this from a community member minutes after arriving on scene following a raid at the Cypress Park Home Depot this morning. they detained day laborers.

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

illegal war started by a man constitutionally ineligible to be president

i think it’s not talked about enough that so many christian rightwingers support israel because they want to trigger the end times rapture and they believe supporting israel will ensure this

We feed you.
They hunt us.

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

Stephen Miller is fulfilling his high school wet dream of terrorizing all the Brown people in Los Angeles. My daughter's friends who went to SaMo High with him said he used to seethe while the morning announcements were repeated in Spanish. Hell, they did that when I went there. (Mesozoic age.)

"Chicago Pope" is like a 1994 SNL sketch. Airs at 12:20am, the only gag is that Chris Farley has a mustache and is doing a big accent. David Spade and the guest host (Joe Mantegna) keep breaking during it.

me: surely, Lindsey Graham cannot find a way to be more obsequious

Lindsey Graham: you are like a small, unimaginative child, watch this

I currently live above a Target and haven’t shopped there since January either! Target absolutely played a factor in me choosing my apartment, but it will have the opposite effect when my lease is up. Bye, Target! 👋

The chickens haven't really come home to roost yet (everything is about to double in price, tourists will no longer come to the U.S., much worse unintended consequences we don't have the imagination to conceive of) and people fucking hate this shit, generally loathe what's going on. Go on offense.

Classic abuser move: create a crisis and then position yourself as its solution. After the abuser “solves” the crisis, he will expect gratitude and adoration.

oh cool I see they’ve deputized Libs of TikTok

What I’m doing: calling your office each time you vote to confirm one of these ghoulish, unqualified nominees; not hearing back. 🙄
What you’re doing: …

showed up early to the DTLA protest to volunteer…and randomly got assigned Trump Balloon duty. made new friends, was in a *ton* of pictures, and served as an unofficial landmark for people to meet up before the march. what a day! 🥹

The gap between the self-image that MAGA has of themselves as tough macho he-men and their constant pants-pissing fear of every goddamn thing in the world is bigger than the Grand Canyon

it’s insane that it’s taken this long for any democratic senator to do what cory booker is doing

"If America hasn't broken your heart, you don't love her enough." - @booker.senate.gov 😭😭😭

I feel this part of Senator Booker's speech in my gut.

Well this made me burst into tears immediately.

The Massachusetts governor, the city, and the university needs to drop everything to locate and free this girl and make sure this doesn't happen again.

This is DEFCON-1. If they do this to someone who wrote an op-ed in a college newspaper, they will do this to anyone they don't like.

Bill Kristol praising Sanders and AOC

imagine explaining to someone in 2016 that Bill Kristol had united in a AOC/Bernie popular front against fascism

It seem insane for a US Senator to say we've all been subjected to "a relentless bombardment of Marxist propaganda." But what he means by this is 1) there was a Burger King ad with an interracial couple and 2) Star Wars Episodes VII-IX had a female lead.

Opinion | What Autocrats Want From Academics: Servility In 1931, Italian scholars were made to take loyalty oaths. Will that happen to us?

"On October 8, 1931, a law went into effect requiring every Italian university professor to sign an oath pledging their loyalty to the government of Benito Mussolini. Out of over 1,200 professors in the country, only 12 refused. All of them were immediately fired." www.chronicle.com/article/what...

this is where the analogy to Brexit is really useful. A similar attitude that the US is completely self-sufficient and needs nothing from anyone. Too bad a lot of innocent people are gonna find out the hard way that this isn’t true.

Le Monde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to US after a search of his phone & computer revealed messages critical of Trump's science cuts, "which [says CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism". Computer confiscated
