More than 500 U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE, according to ProPublica. 70% of ICE detainees have no criminal conviction. Trump’s promise to go after the “worst of the worst” was always a lie. It was always a pretext to terrorize Black and brown communities. Remember this.

According to the right, if you teach that racism is an actual problem that needs to be studied and addressed, that is a bad thing. But if you teach that racism is an actual *solution* that needs to be taught and encouraged, well, that is a good thing, a very good thing indeed.

The vandalism and desecration of the White House isn't just vanity and it's not trivial. It's caesarism, as in literally what Julius Caesar did to the symbolic architecture of civic republicanism. Our national iconography matters and allowing the disfiguring of it to persist is a substantive harm.

On the right is that cunt Robert F. Kennedy Jr when he was a young prick with long hair, wearing a suit and a tie, looking like a right tosser.
​The text below reads: "While RFK Jr was at Harvard, shooting heroin and using his name to skate through life, Fauci was in medical school studying hard and learning stuff. So I think I'll just go ahead and be a tool of the deep state oligarchs and trust a Doctor's medical advice over a Junkie's." At the very bottom, it is credited to Frank Conniff.

This paper shows that immigration enforcement can _increase_ crime. Undocumented immigrants already have the lowest crime rate, but tough-on-immigration policy makes immigrants less likely to report crime. So immigration enforcement worsens the problem it was ostensibly meant to solve
Community Engagement and Public Safety: Evidence from
Crime Enforcement Targeting Immigrantst
By FELIPE GONÇALVES, ELISA JÁCOME, AND EMILY WEISBURST*
We study the role of victim reporting in the production of public safety.
We examine the Secure Communities program, a crime-reduction policy that involved police in detecting unauthorized immigrants and increased deportation fears in immigrant communities. We find that the policy reduced the likelihood that Hispanic victims report crimes to police and increased offending against Hispanics. The number of reported crimes is unchanged, masking these opposing effects. We show that reduced reporting drives the offending increase and provide the first elasticity of offending to victim reporting in the liter-ature, calculating that a 10 percent decline in reporting increases offending by 7.9 percent.
