Tweet from Rep. Andy Ogles: "Paperwork doesn't magically make you American. Muslims are unable to assimilate; they all have to go back."

MAGA wanting to require voters to provide proof of citizenship while also saying that the paperwork does not actually prove that a voter is an American is raising some questions for me

It's so bad that we've reached a point where members of Congress casually discuss stripping citizenship from and deporting people because they don't like their views.

DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:

Voters as β€œVotors”
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"

And, it included a non-party in the caption.

These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

β€œβ€˜I am begging my fellow politicians, my fellow Americans to realize that right now in this country we are not fighting over policy or political party,’ Pritzker said. β€˜We are fighting over whether we are going to be a civilization rooted in empathy and kindnessβ€”or one rooted in cruelty and rage.’”

This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the β€œbaby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

DHS: Our officer was ambushed and beaten with snow shovels and broom handles. This was an attempted murder of federal law enforcement.

ICE says federal agents appear to have lied about confrontation that led to shooting

ICE says federal agents appear to have lied about confrontation that led to shooting

Agents had initially said that two men β€” Alfredo Aljorna and Julio Sosa Celis – assaulted them with a broom and a shovel before one of them shot Sosa Celis. But that account was quickly called into question, and prosecutors now say β€œnewly discovered evidence” contradicts the officers’ story.

The default assumption should be that they’re lying

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP.

CBS, your reporting should point out that the SAVE Act potentially disenfranchises tens of millions of women. It would make it harder and more expensive for anyone who changed their name to vote.

The SAVE Act would make it harder and expensive to vote for any American whose name has changed, including tens of millions of women who took their husband's surnames. The SAVE Act disenfranchises women.

In the historically anti-union South, the UAW just secured a landmark contract with Volkswagen.

The workers won major wage increases, job security against outsourcing, and higher-quality healthcare.

Congratulations to these workers, and remember: there is always hope in labor.

🚨 New: We built a visual tracker of the warehouses ICE is targeting across the US.

Working off an idea from @actualkatherine.bsky.social, we’ve mapped active searches, canceled deals, and linked state property records.

Trump’s New β€œPrison Camp” Threat Unleashes Fury Even in MAGA Country The next phase of ICE’s big ramp-up: a nationwide network of vast detention facilities. But guess what? Even parts of Red America are saying no.

Remarkable: Trump's planned migrant prison camps are hitting deep resistance in red areas. In Virginia's partly rural Hanover (+26 Trump) opposition is intense. GOP leaders in other states are opposed.

Voters are rejecting mass deportations big time. 1/

Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.
