He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

- Reposted by RichardYou know Alex Pretti & Renee Good—the 2 white people ICE killed. ICE has also killed Keith Porter, a Black man, Parady La, a Cambodian man, & 5 Latinos—Heber Sanchaz Domínguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz, Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas Campos. 9 TOTAL. ABOLISH ICE.

- Reposted by Richard"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know. This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.
- Reposted by RichardVoting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

- Reposted by RichardThe federal government is executing American citizens in the middle of the street for exercising their constitutional right to freedom of speech. This is tyranny. No free people can accept this kind of government. We need to bring an end to the Trump regime.
- Reposted by RichardAnother question I came here with was: how effective are the whistles and honking? Does it stop abductions? And the answer is, surprisingly to my cynical self, yes, and often. I have talked to so many people who have successfully interrupted kidnappings.

- Reposted by Richardthe president slowly physically decaying and manifesting what appears to be some kind of stigmata on his hand while becoming more insane and evil would be dismissed as a hacky writing device
- Reposted by Richardright now the floor for me is abolish ICE and put every agent on trial and the average elected democrat is like what if we told them to cut it out

- Reposted by RichardI wrote about how concentration camp regimes evolve and why it's not too late to stop this, even though we are deep in it now.
- Reposted by RichardThe problem of expanding the smash and grabs to include all people who don't look American enough, regardless of citizenship or immigration status, is it becomes obvious we're not debating immigration policy. It's a government campaign of racialized, militarized street thuggery and harassment.
- Reposted by RichardI wish folks who I owned dogs would get it through their heads that dogs DON'T understand punitive actions. All that does is make for an unhappy and less trusting relationship . Also if it's cold outside for you it's cold for them.

- Reposted by RichardI don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

- Reposted by Richardif you try to focus on Trump’s authoritarianism, Schumer will deflect and say people want us to focus on affordability. but when Zohran Mamdani made affordability the heart of his campaign Schumer refused to endorse him because they disagree about Israel. it’s all mealy mouthed bullshit.

- Reposted by RichardI see people talk about ICE by calling them the Gestapo, and while its not hard to see the comparison; they really aught to be compared to something homegrown. Because in truth, the closest thing we can compare ICE to is to federal slave catchers. The operation is the same.
- Reposted by RichardThis is your regular reminder that authoritarianism is just domestic abuse writ large.

- Reposted by RichardI think the misogynist contempt that’s evident as a motivation in the murder of Renee Good makes her killing by a state actor more similar to so-called private violence—eg domestic violence homocides—than some arguments that rely on a firm distinction between state and private violence can sustain.

- Reposted by RichardI do absolutely adore Mister Wilfred. Do adopt older cats. They're often left alone in the shelters. They don't understand why their previous people couldn't stay with them. And then they're alone in a place full of noise and other cats. Yet they make the best pets when you adopt them.
