- Remember when Republican governors hurled human bodies at liberal states and cities, without any coordination or additional resources, as a form of trying to “make a point” about the border? Well now you’re getting your way with the militarized mass deportation project you —not just Trump— wanted…
- They love ICE — as long as it’s somewhere else. #MSsen
- …and several prominent GOP figures are saying they don’t want Trump’s secret police in THEIR cities, and Trump’s concentration camp in THEIR town well I’m sorry tough shit
- You can see their posts, you can talk to them yourself but you can prob guess; virtually no one on the ground standing up to this thing is taking this seriously. The message and sustained resistance remains: Get. The fuck. Out
- you may think this is bad but tbf the Bezos empire had to carve out a lot of money for the Melania movie bribe so you know, pros and cons
- I’m not a fancy big city businessman but it’s called The Washington Post and to nuke local dc coverage, coverage of official Washington’s actions at home and abroad, roll back coverage of insignificant things that nobody cares about like *checks notes* sports(?!?!?)seems like a bad business decision

- People generally don’t like the idea of being concentration camp supporters even if it’s what they voted for and the second trump admin is not giving ordinary people a lot of cover to claim otherwise these days!
- Remarkable: Trump's planned migrant prison camps are hitting deep resistance in red areas. In Virginia's partly rural Hanover (+26 Trump) opposition is intense. GOP leaders in other states are opposed. Voters are rejecting mass deportations big time. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2060...
- Yep, nobody I’m talking to in Springfield is taking this as anything other than buying them some time. Preparing for Trump’s invasion regardless.
- UPDATED: A federal judge found tonight that DHS Secretary Kristi Noem “preordained her [TPS] termination decision and did so because of hostility to nonwhite immigrants.” The administration is expected to appeal; Springfield is still preparing. 19thnews.org/2026/01/ice-... via @19thnews.org

- It’s not doomerism to say trump, his party, and his government are trying to rig elections including the midterms; that’s just … reality It is doomerism to act like they are likely to “cancel” the midterms or that their success in rigging it is at all a given
- we have reporting, per our sources, in here on what Trump’s intel community (yes Intel community) and federal law enforcement have been probing since last year, which led to this raid, and boy is it wild… I know we’ve come to expect this from this gang, but it’s basically Trump’s feds and spooks…
