The government *still* isn’t tracking how often immigration agents detain U.S. citizens. We are. 500+ Americans have been handcuffed, held at gunpoint or held against their will in Trump’s second term. Our tally is almost certainly an undercount. THREAD (content warning: violence) ⬇️

Overheard 2 blokes talking in the pub. One said "When my grandfather turned 100 he got a telegram from the Queen" Other guy said, "That's nothing, when my granddaughter turned 15 she got a 'phone call from Prince Andrew."

Adidas chose to use an Israeli IDF soldier who lost his leg while Israel was committing War Crimes in Gaza as an advertisement. Gaza has the most amputees in the world, Adidas has never used them on its ads.

At Turman Elementary, in Colorado Springs, children told staff they were aggressively approached by masked men with weapons, who identified themselves as ICE agents. ICE claims the children were lying, and the children approached THEM, and accuses people speaking up of "creating a climate of fear."

One of my biggest concerns in 2023-24 was the likelihood that, if Trump got power again, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and related figures such as Palmer Luckey would get more deeply burrowed into the U.S. national security apparatus, in all sorts of dangerous ways that will be hard to dislodge. Alas.
