When the Ai bubble bursts, META can repurpose these tents to house people abducted off the streets without warrants or legal due process by the Trump regime.

"The repeated targeting of California workers is a deliberate spectacle, meant to show the rest of the country what to expect if we don’t fall in line."

"JUST IN: Judge Crenshaw sets Kilmar Abrego Garcia's criminal trial for Jan. 27, 2026 —

“Part of the court’s ethical obligation is transparency, including clear identification of the parties. Not identifying an attorney for the government means if there are unethical or professional concerns regarding [the Department of Homeland Security], the individual cannot be held accountable. And it makes the judge appear partial to the government.”

"A new lawsuit filed today seeks to block ICE from carrying out “re-arrests” of ppl dutifully attending their court hearings.
Following these arrests, ICE then moves to strip these ppl (not violated: terms of their release) of their right to a ct hearing."

#Immigrants & legal advs filed a class-action lawsuit to stop #ICE officers from arresting migrants who appear at IMM cts for previously scheduled hearings & fast-tracking them to #deportations.

"The tiny African kingdom of Eswatini announced Wed that it'd repatriate the 5 migrants who'd been deported there by the US, a day after US officials said the migrants’ home countries had refused to accept them."
-M Schwatz
Eswatini govt SPOX: the govts of her country & together with the INTL Org for Migration, will “facilitate the transit of these inmates to their countries of origin.”
The #TrumpRegime broke the law, but Eswatini followed INTL law.

Robyn Pennacchia highlights the kind of religion undergirding Republican cruelty under Trump: as she notes, yesterday speaker Mike Johnson, a Southern Baptist, told journalists,
"His presidency and his life are the fruits of divine providence."
As German Christian leaders said re: Hitler, Johnson says God has sent Trump to save the nation.

"'Religion simply as a form of worship, an empty ceremony, and not a vital principle, requiring active benevolence, justice, love and good will towards man.' I fail to see how you can shout glory to God one minute and laugh about the harsh conditions of Alligator Alcatraz the next."

"For too long this administration has presented itself as the only defender of Christianity while it engages in merely symbolic gestures like posting Bible verses or publicizing worship services in the White House. Frederick Douglass described this type of performance:"

"Their issues with the legislation vary, but they seemingly all note that the ravenous greed at the core of this law threatens to devour the poor.
I am glad to see this pushback, but none of these policies can be called a surprise. What many feared has become a reality: treating diversity as a threat, dehumanization of migrants & policies that favor the wealthy at the expense of the poor."

"In a rare moment of Christian ecumenism, white evangelicals, mainline Protestants, Roman Catholics and Black church leaders agree that there’s no glory to be found in this legislation. They have leveled distinctively religious criticism at Mr. Trump’s signature piece of legislation."

"I testified today before the House Homeland CMTE. I told them Trump's treatment of immigrants legally here on parole typifies the 3 pillars of his mass deportation agenda:
1) Strip status & ctz
2) Arrest w/o reasonable basis
3) Deport w/o #DueProcess"

Don't let anyone forget, #Republicans are cheering Trump's #deportations, & supporting #immigrants being sent to torturous #detention facs that endanger detainees (already: deaths), using Americans' taxpayer

"Amazing. New CNN poll has Trump's approval on immigration absolutely tanking. It's down to 42-58. A 19-point net swing against him on this issue in just the last few months.
Curious what those who keep saying we're in the midst of a huge societal backlash to 1965 immigration law think of this."

"The measure was approved by a vote of 627-8, with one abstention, at the UCC’s 35th biennial General Synod, which began on Friday and continued through Tuesday in Kansas City, Missouri. The resolution reaffirmed a prior resolution from the 31st synod, in 2017, 'On Becoming an Immigrant Welcoming Church.'”

"The administration sure is working HARD to avoid accountability, because they know the shit they’re doing is criminal, that there is a chance that someday this regime will not be in charge and the rule of law will return, 'just following orders' won’t cut it, and they know what they’re doing will disgrace their family names for generations to come."

"It is unbecoming of public officials and corrosive of the common good to speak of the deterrence value of 'alligators and pythons' at the Collier-Dade facility. Common decency requires that we remember the individuals being detained are fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters of distressed relatives."

Rs like the moats & alligators. Proof: the party is overcome by a nativist fever dream. Rsare giddily extolling “Alligator Alcatraz" (holds 100s of detainees who've no criminal records). The #detention fac is a node for his Mass #Deportations.
