Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand
I didn't realize when I first saw this photo that he was pouting because someone else was getting all the attention.
Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.
They’ve had their necks kneeled on.
They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.
At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

Before Obamacare, being a woman was a pre-existing condition, including coverage denial for domestic violence, contraception, pregnancy, and certain cancers. You could be charged more for insurance premiums just for being female. It was called a 'gender rating'.
40 million Americans may go hungry in November because their SNAP funding is at risk.
40 million people at a time when most are already struggling to put food on the table.
Trump just gave 40 billion to Argentina.
That could feed every American.
That could easily fund SNAP.
America first?
Just be something like that. Too much Unipipers and bookstores? Who knows?
Good day for a sunset over the Point of Kings.
First they came for objective truth.
We don't really know what happened after we let them take that away.
Pete Hegseth, constantly paranoid about someone in the Pentagon talking to the press about the crazy shit he’s doing on a daily basis, issues a new set of rules for the media restricting access to the building. Why are they constantly trying to hide everything from the public?
In some ways, this is more horrifying than the horrors themselves.
This part stuck out to me because it appears the issue is right wingers continually breaking further from reality, requiring the invention of new outlets willing to follow the trend. The way the Facebook groups continually ended up banning and splitting off shows it too.
Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.
If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.
This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.
Kinda insane and shows how afraid the networks are of upsetting this administration that a guy who killed 7 people and wounded 48 with “47” literally tattooed on his face has all but been forgotten like there’s still not a very serious threat emanating from every pore of this pathetic cult
Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.
Mere hours after meeting a sinister man named Bowman.
A lot of people like to dismiss racism as insubstantial to material realities but we’re watching a nation burn trillions of dollars in wealth to entrench a racial system of domination.
Republicans, Independents, and Democrats all want reforms. Trump tapped into people’s rightful anger on one thing: for too many, the status quo wasn’t working.
But the answer isn’t to burn it all down. It’s time to build something new that *actually* delivers on the promise of the American dream.
doge isn’t saving you money
If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
Musk’s cuts are killing Veterans.
Veterans WILL die because of this.
And the administration is lying about it.

New executive order targeting WilmerHale. It's not going to stop until none of Trump's opposition can obtain legal counsel.
The rule of law is dead.

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.
this is great and gets to what might be the defining attribute of this administration which is that trump himself is barely aware of what is happening
BREAKING: Trump's billionaire Commerce Secretary says that seniors won't care if they don't get their Social Security checks — and that anyone who does complain is a fraudster.
So it appears DOGE has decreed that Social Security administration will no longer provide phone support. At all. This is in addition to shutting down a ton of local SSA offices. www.axios.com/2025/03/17/s...
The long answer is that everyone used “fascist” postwar to describe coercive state power in ways that felt oppressive to them. Liberals used it for Reagan. Segregationists used it for civil rights advocates. Soviets used it to describe the West.
The short answer is that we were right about Trump.
