It was immediately obvious to anyone who was not living under a rock for the last 25 years that bombing Iran was a mistake.
How many times are we going to get a headline that reads "Suozzi: 'I failed'" before he finally stops collaborating with the Trump regime?
The “Iran strikes” version of the Democrats who are now acting contrite over having supported Trump’s deportation agenda. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/08/w...
NO NO NO YOU DON’T
GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA
federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL

it’s pretty easy to be anti-war imo
everyday is international women's day #tome
This woman, US citizen living in Skokie, was detained at Ohare yesterday, taken to Broadview, then transferred to a detention facility in Wisconsin, now released. We know all this not because of DHS, who repeatedly denied that they even had her, but because her phone was pinging in those locations.
The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.
It is, I think, darkly illustrative of ICE’s incompetencies and casual cruelties that they would look around a school in an ice cream truck. In March. In Minnesota.
we need to get his nephew back
Here’s the thing: a President openly contemptuous of Congress & willing, unilaterally, to recklessly and illegally commit the US to wars of aggression is an existential threat to the Republic, *regardless* of whether he can ultimately explain his acts to Congress.
The demand must be impeachment.
the war is not "aimless." It is corrupt, unjust and immoral.
The phrase “preemptive strike” is as insulting as when we were sold “humanitarian pauses” in the middle of a live-streamed genocide. The powerful looking you straight in the face and telling you your common sense simply doesn’t matter.
wrote about the decline in people seeking careers in public service for @newrepublic.com -- a detrimental trend that existed before this administration but it is almost certainly going to accelerate during it.

Deliveristas ending their shift and about to head home over the Williamsburg Bridge, though the blizzard. One of them, Salvador,tells me he’s happy for the cutoff by the city.
“This is more dangerous than last snowstorm, harder to move in,” he tells me in Spanish.
Came on here for a minute to look for something and immediately got waylaid, LOL. Before I log off, I did want to share this excellent toolkit by @detentionwatchnetwork.org with all of you who want to take action re: Federal warehouses: docs.google.com/document/d/1...
Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.
“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.
AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.
i think this more than anything is what miller wants. vast detention camps with all of the suffering and death that means.
Read this whole astonishing document. it should be taught as an object lesson in what volunteering to assist a fascist government does to your mind, body, and soul.
STATEMENT FROM THE NATIONAL BASKETBALL PLAYERS ASSOCIATION (NBPA) AND ITS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ON THE FATAL SHOOTING IN MINNEAPOLIS BY ICE
A big question I have is how much of this information is disappearing into the private sector. In other words, even if we dismantle the government database, how can we be sure companies like Palantir aren't just hoovering up data for their own purposes?
Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.
White. Hot. Rage.
Person murdered by ICE today is reportedly a community defender.
[In MSP, people doing rapid response/patrols are referred to broadly as “observer” or “legal observer,” which elsewhere draws specific connotations to NLG’s Legal Observer program. In MSP, usage does not necessarily indicate NLG.]
This morning, federal immigration agents publicly executed an observer at 26th and Nicollet Ave South. Observers are out in the community because they care about our immigrant neighbors. They do this out of love and helping keep families together. 1/
I’ve started using the term “ethnic cleansing campaign” to describe the ICE occupation here in Minnesota. This is deliberate because the reality on the ground is that, at a given moment, any non-white person can be kidnapped by masked federal paramilitaries regardless of their constitutional rights.
Woody Guthrie's New Year's resolutions for 1943: Don't get lonesome. Beat fascism. Love everybody. Wake up and fight.
My sign today.
If you're in the NYC area, I hope you will support this on Tuesday. I'll be there!
I agree with the broader point here, but also, the conviction of Jesus was kind of one of the most important parts of the narrative of Jesus's life. So, probably convicting a cop is a lot harder than convicting Jesus.
WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to:
* 8 people shot
* 5 of which were U.S. citizens
* 2 died
* no victims drew a weapon
The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire
