RE: https://hachyderm.io/@inthehands/115957125308834255
IT IS WORKING. If you haven’t called today, call again!!
Today the Trump mob is hinting and waffling and shuffling and floating half-measures, and none of it means anything except this:
They are afraid.
They are afraid of losing what little support they have. They’re afraid of losing funding. Redouble the pressure. Press the advantage.

Call if your Senator already agrees. Push them to do more. Make them lose sleep wondering how they can stop ICE harder.
Cal if your Senator is an irredeemable right-winger. Let them feel the heat. Make them know ICE’s murders will haunt them.
Call if your Senator is waffling. That means they’re weak, and right now that means we have the advantage.
For this brief moment, the fight is in the electoral arena, and your calls are actually good for something.

@inthehands Yup. They are looking for an exit strategy where they can minimally save face and claim some sort of "win" because they are obsessed with form over substance -- The important part of which is that they are looking for an exit.
That's pretty much it. They know they can't sustain how things are going, and they aren't getting anything out of trying. TACO. If you stand up to the bully, they eventually give up.

@wrosecrans @inthehands very important to not give them any space to claim victory

Out of curiosity: does it make more sense to leave them a message or to talk to their staff
Edit: there is a group of us here that has never called (just emailed) and we wonder if there is an inside perspective on what is best.

@astroPug
Either, and either is better than email because it indicates a higher level of engagement. -

@inthehands They should be afraid. We should keep them afraid. What happens when nazis stop being afraid? I have a Pretti Goode idea…

El Centro El Centro El Centro
Was Bovino the freak who took an entire attack squad of ICE goons up California a couple hundred miles to Bakersfield (think it was) to harass Hispanic farm laborers out in the fields, completely out of the blue, a year ago or so?
Thought I'd heard of him before...
So Bovino's not "retiring" he's returning to his original post / field of operations
"On Jan. 7 [2025], the day after Congress certified Trump’s election victory, Bovino sent 65 of his agents into Kern County, six hours north of the border, to conduct a raid that has shaken immigrant communities and agricultural businesses across the state, and has set the stage for a legal battle over how the government carries out mass deportations."
Here: https://calmatters.org/economy/2025/04/border-patrol-records-kern-county/
Read that: exactly the same modus operandi and exactly the same wording he and Noem and the rest of them use right now

@inthehands 😆🤣 Bovino, "commander-at-*large*"?!?!
I don't *want* to make a short joke. I really shouldn't. I'm trying not to.
But I just can't *be the bigger man*. 🤣🤣🤣

My latest calls included: “Fewer agents is not enough. More oversight is not enough. Demoting people is not enough. Destroy ICE and CBP. Wipe them out. Burn them, bury them, and salt the earth. Eradicate them like a cancer.”

These are *all* pathological liars

@inthehands I hope he's evicted upon his return to El Centro, or slapped with ridiculously high HOA/property tax fees.
Better yet, I hope someone has burned down his house. Let him be humbled by the homelessness he fought so hard to brutalize.
Fuck him forever. I hope he doesn't have to be on planet Earth for much longer.

@tsturm @midendian I have conflicting feeling looking back on my time living there. I miss hiking up the hills and overlooking everything, but I also get cold just thinking about being there.

@Szescstopni depending on what you need from photoshop, I know that @davidrevoy makes comics that have also been professionally published using only Free Software under linux, and talks about his tools on his blog.
the most photoshop-like one used is #krita

@midendian Always a handsome city.

I'm nervous about flying to Brussels. I get really lonely and disconnected traveling without my family. And social responsibilities, like hanging out with 10,000 of my best Open Source friends, make me feel lonelier. I am going to try to take some quality time with friends this week and not talk only about the Fediverse.
