It's crazy he's getting more stuff done in a week than the entirety of when Biden and Kamala were in office

thats because he's breaking the law and have the other two branches of government co-signing his actions. they are undoing established precedents and purposefully seeking to destabilize the country so he can invoke marshall law.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped

What I learned from reading this is that detention centers are privately owned and run as a business. The more people they detain, and the longer they keep them there, the more money they make. This is horrifying and every citizen should be extremely concerned about this issue.

Same as prisons

Not exactly…when the government is contracting with ICE and detaining US citizens and people with green cards without warning, plainclothes “officers” basically abducting random people and hauling them off in vans with no criminal charges and no due process…this is different.

🇺 megabyterose.bsky.social
Yes, fukk ICE. But this can also be said for prisons, “[prisons] are privately owned and run as a business. The more people they detain, and the longer they keep them there, the more money they make.” hence me saying “same as prisons.” I am not a pro ICE account or something?

🇺 maybekaybee7.bsky.social
I understand we are on the same page here. And I understand about prisons being run as businesses as well. It’s all terrible, the way human beings are being treated, especially those who have no evidence of criminal misconduct.

Empathy, or ‘woke mind virus’ as MAGA would call it. The world is in such deep deep trouble 😔

The US certainly is.

Hopefully, the horror that the rest of the world is experiencing in watching it will keep us from making the same mistakes.

🇺 xewhat.bsky.social
‘Hopefully’. What does it say that avoiding this kind of horror is something for which we can only hope?

True, but sadly collective apathy & amnesia would seem to have eroded the requisite vigilance. Even if events in America do act as a reminder & wake people up, will it all be too little too late & what suffering will be endured before sanity is restored?

I saw clips of this on cnn today and it looked as much like torture as it is. And we broadcast their misery.

Isn’t this some sort of war crime or against the Geneva convention? Can we please get that man out of office and into prison? Please?

These are Crimes Against Humanity.

Only the US can save the US here, there's no Lafayette coming this time and Canada is assuredly not bailing our neighbours out.

The US revolted against less severe Tyranny to build that nation. They need to remember how to do it again.

I fear so. I admit to feeling a lot like an Austrian looking across the German border in the 1930s....

Not a great feeling.

Trump should be charged at the ICJ for committing crimes against humanity. He has blood on his hands.

Hey @cnn.com @msnbc.com @nbcnews.com @cbsnews.com @axios.com @rollingstone.com why are you not telling this story? This young man is not the only one. We are in the "rounding up" phase. Do more.

Reminder to Americans that Trump doesn't just want to send immigrants to foreign, inhumane prisons. He regularly tweets about wanting to send his political enemies and other Americans there too.

One day they’ll write about Trump, Miller m, Homan, ICE and the rest like they wrote about the Nazis. Shame on all of them. Shame on the voters who chose this cruelty.

The hope is that they can be removed from power again. Last time, the MAGA cult didn’t take it well and attempted a coup. We’ll see how this plays out in the coming years—they are becoming more authoritarian.

And they learned from their beer hall pu... that thing on 6th January 2021.

Trump and his followers are even more going for loyalty instead of qualifications this time, in all levels and branches of government. With the full support of the Republican Party.

Does this not remind people of the Jews in 1930s Germany.
How does a civilised society allow this to happen.
How evil and depraved do you have to be, to be someone that could do this to another human being!

This breaks my heart. There is also a gentleman from Arlington VA, who's been taken. He had a green card and legally sanctioned asylum. He's in El Salvador's prison. His wife and children are frantic. And he's in severe danger. fukk you DJT.
