@SeanCasten
According to the NYT / Sienna poll from last week, only 63% of U.S. registered voters disapprove of “how ICE is handling its job”. I suppose in modern politics that counts as “vast majority”… But it is disheartening that 24% “strongly approve”.
I’m worried that with such numbers of people who can see what is happening in Minnesota and not be totally outraged, that this will never stop.
@SeanCasten
I am shocked and saddened by what happend.
The world is watching you all, don't allow the fascists to win.
And don't believe they don't have plans that go far beyond all that.
Question: why does Trump need to build a data center and bunker underneath the"ball room", which by now is pretty obviously what he is really doing?
We are feeling with you all, watching the shit show the US has become is hard to do, but the passion and courage of the people is heartening
@SeanCasten Yup. Said as it is. This should really create a mandate on the US public to force eviction of the deeply deeply corrupt Trump. And a clean out of the whole system.
Political systems are, strange to realise, public systems intended to serve all. Yet they get commandeered by vested interests in every country to one degree or other. In the US, the degree is deep into Fascist territory.
@Bahnya @SeanCasten Not a single Democrat in either the House or Senate voted for the BBB, which funded this nightmare. GFY, which seems to be the only useful use of your time.
@SeanCasten I have no fucking clue why the US has the second amendment, and the death penalty, and still shit like this is going down.

@solitha @SeanCasten
Dems are a big part of why this is happening. WTF did they do for 4 years under Biden. They could have stopped this by starting prosecutions on J7. Biden made a deal with maga
Republicans made Minnesota an open carry state, simply being armed is no pretext.
@SeanCasten AND the city of Minneapolis.
AND the Minneapolis Police Department.
AND the Hennepin County Sheriffs.
AND the Minnesota State Police.
AND Governor Tim Walz.
ALL of them are actively PROTECTING people who are executing civilians in the streets now. They have been the whole time. There are no enablers; there are only collaborators.
And collaborators hanged at Nuremberg.
@SeanCasten where are our elected representatives? Why are they not standing on the front lines with the people instead of hiding behind their social media accounts? What *actions* are they taking?
@SeanCasten if you think they are frightened, you are further out of touch than is acceptable. Go watch a video of sharks in a feeding frenzy - look at their dead eyes - now look at the administration, the former GOP and their private armed forces. That's not fear - it's hunger for blood.
(apologies to the sharks)
@CuriousMagpie @SeanCasten The leaders of the House and Senate Democratic caucuses refused to whip the caucus to oppose funding. They downplayed it in statements to media. Both parties fund street executions. I'm sick of playing games. The federal government is acting way outside of the law, and the politicians are funding it.
@lemgandi @SeanCasten most of the shooting was done when he was already down. They killed him, and then they all unloaded.
The US government has declared war on its citizenry. That's where we are now. They're going to kill people until they're given the excuse to REALLY start killing people.
@zero @SeanCasten I hear you and I don’t disagree exactly, but I guess I’m cynical enough about human nature to believe that one will find about that level of support for violent authoratarians in every society. The trick is building a political system that keeps them out of power, instead of disproportionately *empowering* them, as the US system has done.
@CaymanPilot Well, let's start with the fact that Biden wasn't in office for another two weeks.
Let's go on with the fact that prosecutions began immediately on multiple levels. Just because we weren't aware of what was going on didn't mean nothing was.
And lastly, I'll point out that Trump could have campaigned and even maybe won from prison. Nothing in the law precludes it.
@SeanCasten Please spare us the crocodile tears...
Dems just voted to increase funding to ICE, just as they have for the past 20+ years. Dem mayors and governors are having their police arrest protesters. Meanwhile you took $300,000 from AIPAC and continue to support the genocide in Gaza.
WHO DO YOU EVEN WORK FOR???
@SeanCasten I don't really have hope that we'll, collectively, hold them accountable.
We need to purge our country of this rot; every last corner they hide in, every last elected Nazi, if you voted in favor of this? Jail, minimum, proportional to their level of support and involvement.
Stephen Miller?
Kushner?
Every Trump kid?
Almost every single republican in office right now?
Trial. No excuses.
We won't, though. The Nazis will have some token sacrifices to hide behind and we won't be rounding up every member of ice and throwing them in a hole like we should.
@CaymanPilot I'll add that the GOP has been working on this for quite literally decades.
One figurehead stopped would not have prevented what's happening. Had he dropped dead on J6 it would not have prevented what's happening.
Trump is a prominent symptom of the disease, but only a symptom.
@ATLeagle @SeanCasten
Don't forget the Dem collaborators...
Fucking collaborators. The lot of them.
☠️ 🇺🇸 ☠️
These Democrats voted for the DHS funding bill despite ICE furor

@DrSaucy @Bahnya @SeanCasten Didn't seven of them vote for additional/continued funding just now? Certainly does look that way from over here.
