If you are following the mainstream news coverage of ICE and have a funny feeling about it, I urge you to read my book Copaganda. It will change things for you. All the royalties are donated to charity that fights surveillance and state violence, and we have free copies for anyone in prison and any students who can't afford it. The book is also funny and accessible with lots of examples! It is absolutely vital in these moments to help people think more deeply and critically about what's going on--especially the role/complicity of mainstream news, pundits, universities, and liberal politicians in this rising fascist moment. And what we can each do about it. Now is the time for book clubs, reading groups, and talking about this stuff with friends and family about these violent systems, accountability, and the propaganda that keeps it all going.
Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.
@notcapnamerica I am going to need American Media to stop reducing #heatedrivalry performances by #connorstorrie & #hudsonwilliams to just the spicy scenes & their bodies. Yes, that was awesome, but their performances are much richer & deeper than that. We are obsessed w/so much more than that.
Congressman Massie is correct.
The DOJ assertions for withholding information from Congress and the public wouldn't survive first contact with the courts.
The statute is crystal clear.
@JoeConchaTV It is a public building that doesn’t belong to him. He has no permits and no approval to alter the structure. It is corruption personified that it’s being funded by billionaires who want favors from the Nodfather. There is zero fucking excuse for it.
Going on national TV to announce troop bonuses but then quietly taking it out of their housing allowance fund is so typical of this White House: Totally gimmicky, likely illegal, and ultimately accomplishing nothing.
Like I said: view all political developments for the rest of the week in light of the fact that the Epstein Files are supposed to be released on Friday.
House Republicans just suddenly cancelled Congressional session Friday and are sending everyone home Thursday evening.
I love how everybody in the administration is acting like "well the moral of this story is never talk to Vanity Fair," as if Susie Wiles isn't a diamond-hardened professional who knew exactly what she was doing by sitting for *eleven* interviews.
Okay, you do that, sure thing.
All I want for Christmas is for everybody normal to collectively agree that we will no longer be shamed by the sanctimony kabuki of the extremely online right.
Wow buried in the new US tourist guidelines, you need to give:
-5 years of phone records
-all old email addresses
-5 years of social media history
-info of all close relatives
-Your FUCKING DNA?!?!
What the hell man!
Say goodbye to ALL US tourism!
When @dfriedman33 discovered a Goodreads page tied to the email of a top Pentagon official featuring books on “Asian wife sharing," he did what any reporter would do: ask the Pentagon questions.
The next day, a threatening email from Jack Posobiec arrived. https://t.co/5deXtQZBpB
@SecDuffy@SecKennedy I think we’d all prefer planes that departed and arrived on time, didn’t crash, didn’t get delayed on runways and trap us onboard for hours, and for airlines to reimburse us when they fuck up and our flights are cancelled.
You are an embarassment.
