1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed. Put simply: the right-wing has narrative dominance. My org @mmfa.bsky.social did this study and has been sounding this alarm for years. Some thoughts...

Holy crap. The DOJ is arguing that the President can unilaterally deport anyone he wants without ANY statutory authority, just on his inherent authority as President over national security. That is a terrifying claim to make and not one that has ever been recognized before in US history.

Beyond the statute, the President’s inherent Article II authority is plainly
violated by the district court’s order. As a function of his inherent Article II authority
to protect the nation, the President may determine that TdA represents a significant
risk to the United States, that it is intertwined and advancing the interests of a foreign
government in a manner antithetical to the interests of the United States, and that its
members should be summarily removed from this country as part of that threat.

It’s state sponsored rape and murder of a disenfranchised demographic of its own people. That, folks, is a key component of fascism.

He's openly admitting they're going to use the military to do illegal things and fired all the lawyers so no one will stop them. They will use the military on US civilians and they will give the order to shoot. The question is whether the rank and file listen.

I'm not going to link out to it but yes, it's real, and yes, it's the official account

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

Trump is advocating for ethnic cleansing of Gaza. This is a war crime. Centuries will not erase the shame of our country's complicity with this genocide. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

Reposting with alt text for accessibility. I’m telling everyone: Do not open the door or say a word unless you’re expecting someone and know exactly who it is. Know your rights. Pass these around.

IF ICE AGENTS SHOW UP AT YOUR DOOR

1. You do not have to open the door. If you do, stay calm-you have rights.
2. Ask what they are there for (and ask for an interpreter if you need one).
3. If they ask to enter, ask if they have a warrant signed by a judge and if so, ask to see it (through a window or slipped under the door).
4. If they do not have a warrant signed by a judge, you may refuse to let them in. Ask them to leave any information at your door.
5. If they force their way in, do not resist. Tell everyone in the residence to remain silent.
6. If you are arrested, you have the right to remain silent. Do not sign anything until you speak with a lawyer.

Know Your Rights - ACLU

IF YOU INTERACT WITH ICE AGENTS AT WORK

1. Ask if you are free to leave. If so, you may calmly walk out.
2. You have the right to refuse consent to a search.
3. You have the right to remain silent. You do not have to discuss your immigration status with anyone, such as about where you were born, whether you are a citizen, or how you entered the country.
4. If you have valid immigration documents, you should show them. Never provide fake documents.
5. If you are arrested, say that you wish to remain silent until speaking with a lawyer.
6. You have the right to record your interaction with immigration agents as long as you do not interfere.

Know your rights, ACLU

Spanish translation:

SI AGENTES DE ICE LLEGAN A SU LUGAR DE TRABAJO

1. Pregunte si se puede marchar. De ser así, váyase tranquilamente.
2. Tiene derecho a no permitir ser registrado. Diga en voz alta que no permite que registren sus pertenencias.
3. Tiene derecho a permanecer callado. No tiene que compartir su estatus migratorio con nadie, incluyendo dónde nació, si es ciudadano, ni cómo entró al país.
4. Si tiene documentos de inmigración válidos, debería mostrarlos. Nunca presente documentos falsos.
5. Si es arrestado, puede decir que quiere permanecer en silencio hasta que hable con un abogado.
6. Tiene el derecho a grabar su interacción con los agentes de inmigración siempre y cuando no interfiera.

Kreyòl / Haitian Creole Translation:

SI AJAN ICE YO PREZANTE NAN PÒT OU

1. Pa ouvè pòt la, rete kalm.
2. Mande poukisa yo la (epi mande yon entèprèt si ou bezwen youn).
3. Si yo mande pou yo antre, mande si yo gen yon manda yon jüj siyen. Si yo gen yonn, mande pou wè I. Fè yo glise manda atravè yon fenèt oubyen anba pòt la.
4. Si yo pa gen yon manda ki siyen pa yon jij, ou ka refize kite yo antre. Mande yo pou kite nenpòt enfòmasyon sou pòt ou.
5. Si yo fose antre, pa reziste. Di tout moun lakay ou pou yo rete an silans.
6. Si yo arete w, rete an silans epi pa siyen anyen kiskaske ou pale avèk yon avoka.

Sheryl Weikal says Prosecute ICE @leftistlawyer.com · 04/02/2025

If you're protesting tomorrow: "I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present." MEMORIZE THAT, because aside from asking if you're free to leave (or providing ID if you're in a stop and ID state), that's the ONLY thing you ever say to cops.

Why isn't this, a story with far greater implications than Watergate, not front page news? I just went to the NY Times and it is buried deep in the politics section, a second thought to an article about Elizabeth Warren.
