Who could have predicted?
Certainly not those that have sacrificed critical thought for emotion to a man.

institutions are crumbling. 1st Amendment rights are going wobbly, charges against a journalist covering #Minneapolis . We still don’t know the names of the officers who killed Alex Pretti. And the president is sucking up all the taxpayer money he can. www.thebulwark.com/p/defang-ice...

Children raped and killed. American citizens shot in the street. Immigrants illegally shackled, tortured, killed. Journalists arrested.
While a $300 million ballroom is constructed and a trash documentary released.
JANE FONDA: “I know Don Lemon. My husband created CNN. And I will fight for their right to speak… they arrested the wrong Don. This is how autocrats act. We can’t fall for it.”
Tucson, Arizona has risen up against the regime and its violent ICE forces, the brave people of Tucson declare:
"Tucson doesn't stand with tyranny" "We must win, for your brothers and your sisters, friends and family, we have to fight"

Thank you to everyone across the country who showed up yesterday to send the powerful message that what is happening in our country is unacceptable. We will not be silenced.

I will vote for candidates who pledge to abolish ICE. Join me and see all candidates on @votewithsway.bsky.social who have pledged to defund and disband ICE: sway.co/g/4ug5naoy?ref=44ra5rrf

To every Republican coward who is watching this and saying nothing, know this — silence is complicity.
And when history looks back on this moment, your names will be included on the list of how it was allowed to happen.
When I started Democracy Docket in 2020, my goal was to make as much of it free as possible. Its website has always been 100% free and it still is. Check it out and get the most in-depth news, information, analysis and opinion about voting rights and elections in the courts. www.democracydocket.com
This from @andreapitzer.bsky.social is key.
“nobody sane now thinks the answer to abuses at Dachau was to give the guards more training.”
Ossoff: "There's a wickedness to the program. I don't know, pastor, where it is in scripture that it says deny care to the sick, take from those with the least to give to those with the most, violate the house of worship to hunt down the refugee. Where in the scripture are those lessons taught?"
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."
An FBI agent conducted an initial review of the Renee Good killing and determined sufficient grounds existed to open a civil rights probe into the actions of the ICE officer who shot her. Justice Department says no inquiry is warranted. @perrystein.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Men who defend Jonathan Ross for murdering Renee Good are not safe to be around. End those relationships.
Well, there’s your mistake. Trump is not your friend, and deals with Trump are meaningless because he will tear them up or ignore them whenever it suits him. Kinda like he does with our laws and Constitution.
"In the immediate aftermath of the death of Renée Good in Minneapolis... an FBI agent in Minnesota conducted an initial review of the shooting and determined that sufficient grounds existed to open a probe into the actions of the officer who shot Good..."

Jennings: Let's not get our knickers in a twist here
McGowan: Why are you talking like that? It's insane. Your attitude is just horrifying…
I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.
Tonight Minnesotans stood together to honor the life of Renee Nicole Good.
Do you feel overwhelmed? Tired? Exhausted with the constant news cycle?
I want you to know: that's their goal.
They want you checked out. They want you burnt out. I get it. I feel it.
Take a break, but don't give up. When you give up, they win.
A Civiqs Poll this week revealed that support for abolishing ICE is at an all time high among Americans.
So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.
News Team, Thank you for the notes and texts. I apologize for not reaching out earlier. I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity. Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one. We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed to kill the story. If the administration's refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we
have effectively handed them a "kill switch" for any reporting they find inconvenient. If the standard for airing a story becomes "the government must agree to be interviewed," then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state. These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless. CBS spiked the Jeffrey Wigand interview due to legal concerns, nearly destroying the credibility of this broadcast. It took years to recover from that "low point." By pulling this story to shield an administration, we are repeating that history, but for political optics rather than legal ones.
We have been promoting this story on social media for days. Our viewers are expecting it. When it fails to air without a credible explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of "Gold Standard" reputation for a single week of political quiet. I care too much about this broadcast to watch it be dismantled without a fight. Sharyn
Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:
Never stop talking about how the supposed president is a child RAPIST!!
“What's happening to CBS is a terrible embarrassment and if execs think they can build shareholder value by avoiding journalism that might offend the Mad King they are about to learn a tough lesson. This is still America and we don’t enjoy bullshit like this.”
