It's really stunning how many thousands of lives that his hate has impacted, from here on American soil to the high seas of the Caribbean."

@reichlinmelnick.bsky.socialReposted by @tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialThe NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.

@nicolefoy.bsky.socialReposted by @tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialFor almost 2 years now, DHS has repeatedly told me they're not detaining U.S. citizens
It's simply not true
So @propublica.org published the receipts: a searchable database of the 500+ citizens detained by immigration agents during this Trump administration

@tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialReposted by @tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialThe right’s hysteria over immigration really boils down to how they look at this chart. The % of America’s foreign born in 2025 is comparable to the % throughout much of the 19th and early 20th Century. What the right really doesn’t like is where immigrants are coming from: Latin America.
@tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialAlso, even at the peak of the foreign-born chart, more than 84% of people were born inside the United States.

@tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialReposted by @tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialThis is cartoonishly racist. But it’s part of a broader campaign to demonize Muslim Americans. Republican politicians and rightwing media are stoking fears of an Islamic takeover. It’s absurd. But this racist insult from Trump is part of a more dangerous pattern - an ongoing propaganda campaign.
@tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialReposted by @tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialVice President JD Vance should be asked about his relationship with Curtis Yarvin every single day. Yarvin has a lot more influence than some leftwing streamer.
