Your first scream into the abyss is free.

That's how they get you hooked.

How can you defend Iran with stories like this of a woman 5 months pregnant, arrested on suspicion of a civil violation, forced to sleep in shackles on a dungeon floor with cockroaches, denied access to reproductive healthcare, & suffered a stillbirth, which she was forced to deliver in front of prison guards. Horrific.

WAIT. Did I say Iran? I meant this happened in Louisiana this week to Iris Dayana Monterroso-Lemus, whose fiancee is a US citizen and she had no criminal record. #ThisIsAmerica

Federal ICE and immigration agents are getting protested at hotels they are staying at.

"People now frequently turn out in the evenings at hotels where ICE agents are believed to be staying, to bang on pots and pans and play sounds on bullhorns to prevent the agents from having a good night’s sleep."

Agents are also aggressively interviewing the hotel worker, cooks, housekeeping, etc regarding their immigration statuses. Hello, haven't they heard about "Don't piss off the cook that prepares your food?"

"The authoritarian dream is rooted in the belief that state violence should serve as the primary tool of governance. ...

What we are witnessing is a spectacle of domination. The deployment of troops, the vigilante targeting of Democratic lawmakers, the planned grotesquerie of Trump’s military parade, and Trump’s order for ICE to target cities led by Democrats are not isolated events — they are scenes in the same authoritarian drama."

~ Henry A. Giroux
