Really neat snow map that updates automatically by @sstirling.bsky.social www.inquirer.com/weather/snow... Helpfully for me includes NJ!

I'm working with these folks and it is incredible to watch the speed, enthusiasm, and comradery happening behind the scenes in what's a completely ad-hoc group of printer rogues.

I think back to when an editor chastised me in 2016 for tweeting that the Trump admin was fear-mongering the public about DACA recipients being criminals. I was told I risked being able to report on immigration. I asked the editor what was inaccurate about my tweet. They said "fear-mongering"...

“Asking scientists to spy on and report on their fellow co-authors” is a “classic hallmark of authoritarianism,” said Jennifer Jones, director for the Center for Science and Democracy at the Union of Concerned Scientists

This was an intense hearing. Judge Young, an 85-year-old Reagan appointee who has served on the federal bench for 47 years, didn't mince words. He closed the hearing by reading from Lincoln's address at Gettysburg. Some of the people in the courtroom were in tears. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/u...

Destiny Jackson said her 6-mo-old infant stopped breathing and lost consciousness following the ICE attack. She performed CPR on her baby while others poured milk on her other children in an effort to neutralize the tear gas. Three of children, including the baby, were then taken to the hospital

“To lose people at that career level, people who otherwise intended to stay and now are either being discharged or themselves are walking away, is immensely damaging to the public interest"

MAGA, a movement of cynical cruelty that is fueled by atomization, has accidentally created the conditions for in person communities to be formed around resisting their repression bsky.app/profile/aaro...

A new NYT video analysis by confirms that Renee Good's vehicle did not run over Jonathan Ross and did not strike him. It's possible that it brushed up against him, but that remains unclear. Ross should be under arrest. This is a gift link. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/v...

I keep reposting Jamelle Bouie, because I think a lot of people desperately need to hear this instead of conceding defeat. “We are not going to have elections again” is not a helpful defensive posture, nor is it grounded in fact.

1. It's been more than a day since 2 of America's most storied newsrooms, CBS and ABC, reported that killer ICE agent Jon Ross suffered "internal bleeding" based on unnamed sources Since then - No other news org has confirmed the story - No evidence (photos, medical records) has been produced

I have nothing more to add, and I really ... I know this shouldn't be the thing that breaks me, and it's certainly just a cumulative thing, but.

Always grateful for Craig and his humble generosity.

Several faculty groups have denounced the Trump administration’s efforts to obtain information about Jewish professors, staff and students at the University of Pennsylvania – including personal emails, phone numbers and home addresses – as government abuse with “ominous historical overtones”.

If you see federal agents pulling into your driveway, reporters, power down your electronic devices ASAP. That's the advice from @runasand.bsky.social, via @columjournreview.bsky.social www.cjr.org/news/hannah-...

Also I’m trying to be good about using in the ground first hand sources. @zdroberts.bsky.social is there and I know and trust him and he is in the middle of it.

jesus fucking christ

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

How did Bari Weiss let this story run with only one, unsourced side of the story? Surely, she would have delayed the report until they saw the actual medical records

Wow. This is really interesting. "The 13 other NFL playoff teams average 77.6 years of on-field experience at the assistant level (outside of their own programs). Green Bay is at just 21 years, 27 percent of the average."

Yesterday, I wrote about the ongoing resistance to ICE terror in Minneapolis. “With each passing day, networks widen, tactics crystallize, and previously unconnected people find their bravery. […] Yes, we are on our own. But…we are not alone. Take heart, friends. Don't let them see you sweat.”

Brutal.

Do people know of any faith based organizing in the Minneapolis area ministering to people in the line of fire? #rabbis #priests #imams etc. 🙏🏻 #JournoRequest

This story is incredible.

Yes, immigration agents not only took Arnoldo's phone, the 10th grader had to use Find My Phone to locate it — in a vending machine for used electronics, close to an ICE detention center. Read the full story here: www.propublica.org/article/vide...

"rather than using crime and fear as a way to get people engaged, what if you used humor?” www.niemanlab.org/2026/01/high... This is interesting. Hmm.

Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

"At the same time, a substantial share of rank-and-file members of academia allowed their colleagues to be harassed and ostracized." Much we can learn from the McCarthy era.

These was last week in CA. These same grotesque close range attacks are happening in Minneapolis right now. "underwent six hours of surgery...doctors found shards of plastic, glass & metal embedded in his eyes & around his face, including a metal piece lodged 7 mm from a carotid artery."

One thing I love about this platform is whenever a Steelers game is on and I just see a bunch of posts going "vaxxed!?" I know something bad has happened to Aaron Rodgers.

Honestly have lost count in the chaos but this is the third (?) gas incident today
