Stop acting like people wanting stable jobs, affordable homes, good schools, and leaders who put our communities first are lofty ideals. Those are literally the basics.
They supported Andrew Cuomo just a few months ago. They defended Biden against sexual assault allegations until he was no longer politically useful. They don’t care about women they care about protecting allies and weaponizing accusations against political opponents. They act in bad faith, and their primary objective is to undermine any momentum on the left that challenges the political establishment.
why anyone think this agency can be reformed or made kinder/gentler/more lawful is really beyond me. you've gotta be paid to think that at this point - and if you believe this for free, smh.
There is simply no justification for an agency of lawless mercenaries that kill people with impunity.
ICE must be abolished. We cannot keep surrendering to fascism.
I have to say, I find the knives out for Morris & the rest of Platner’s team to be really odd. I don’t remember this energy for the consultants who worked for Swalwell—or even Cuomo, whose harassment allegations were public knowledge years *before* he ran for mayor?
James Wood is my sweet son. He's Intelligent, kind, funny, and a hell of baseball player. James Woods with an "s" is an actor and a different sort of fella altogether. Felt like that was important to say right about now. Sure wish others were as careful about spelling as I am.
So not only did an ICE agent shoot an unarmed man in the back of a van and lie about it, they’ve detained three eyewitnesses and are pressuring them to self-deport so they don’t testify. This is horrifying shit.
So many people in the national press seem motivated to paint Maine voters as a bunch of dumb hogs who were hypnotized by Platner's voice and didn't care about taxing billionaires and cutting arms sales to Israel. I wonder why they'd want to foreclose these conversations, hmm...
