- Reposted by Thom MooreHaving now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.
- Reposted by Thom MooreBreaking News: A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to release Rumeysa Ozturk, a Tufts University student whose arrest by plainclothed immigration agents in Massachusetts led to a public outcry.
- I have to give 47 kudos for a couple of things. First, (re)considering a "millionaire tax". Second, coming to a position that "Russia must give up all of Ukraine". Neither is a done deal at this point, so I won't belabour them with links. Fingers crossed this isn't fiction.

- Reposted by Thom MooreAmid all the other news, it's easy to become inured to the basic facts here. Öztürk: -Is not accused of committing any crime -Is nonviolent -Was in this country legally -Merely engaged in speech that the administration objects to -Has been locked up for six weeks

- Republicans won't admit to the reality: America was greatest when marginal tax rates were sky high. Restoring high marginal rates yielded budget surpluses in '90s. Tariffs fall on consumers, the biggest tax redistribution in history. Elite cabal won't share. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Something bad happened on each planet. Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.

- Reposted by Thom MooreAt a time of massive inequality, Trump's budget is breathtaking in its degree of cruelty. It slashes funding for health care, housing & education that the working class desperately needs in order to pay for more tax breaks for billionaires & the Pentagon. That is morally obscene.

- This user blocks the quoter.FYI, folks from Bluesky. Reporters at The NYT, among other news organizations, are now generating a giant wave of accountability stories about the new Trump era. Reading these stories, sharing them, is a form of accountability as well. It is a form of participatory democracy too. Substance matters.
- After all the talking point rationales (economics, are shown to be hollow hypocrisies, the real rationale becomes obvious. You simply cannot tolerate black, brown, indigenous or intersex people. We could accurately call it BIgoted Derangement Syndrome, but "bigotry" is more succinct.

- Reposted by Thom MooreThere’s a conservative trope that long predates Trump that suggests that due process is a gift we give to criminals because we’re such a generous society. It’s not. It’s how we determine who the criminals are.

- There’s a bigoted fallacy in going from “my daughter was killed by an undocumented alien” to “all those people are murderers and must be deported. How can you possibly defend one of them?”

- @raskin.house.gov How about daily televised updates on 47’s violations of the constitution, like those we had for COVID19? Chellie Pingree was receptive to this idea at a recent town hall.
- Reposted by Thom MooreThis is not normal. This government gets closer and closer every day to declaring war on its own people. This post is a clear and direct statement of intention to defy the Supreme Court and end rule of law in the United States.
