Last year ICE said a man tried to murder a female ICE officer while she was trying to arrest him. They swore under oath he grabbed her by the neck and tried to choke her to death. He was even indicted for attempted murder. Problem is, it never happened! Bystander video unraveled the lie.

Prairieland sentences brings war on terror home Protesters at ICE's Prairieland facility recieved far harsher sentences than anyone from Jan. 6's violent mob And by "terror" they mean "legitimate, constitutionally protected dissent" www.salon.com/2026/07/03/p...

Today, the Prairieland defendants Ines Soto, Joy Gibson, and Rebecca Morgan were sentenced to 50, 15, and 15 years, respectively. This is political persecution for the sole purpose of terrorizing potential protesters. But if we let them scare us out of organizing, that will only endanger us more.

6 years ago today Fox News helpfully distilled some of the demands of the Movement for Black Lives... Curious that they could figure out the demands but that white dude bros on the so called Left say that it's unclear... LOL

I wrote about the Prairieland defendants and the urgency of opposing the extreme sentences handed down on Tuesday. And they likely will not be the last.

Absolutely NO reflection allowed.

The intense contempt for AI at college graduations is a glaring sign of how many of the young are AI refuseniks.

It kinda got lost in the madness, but the federal conspiracy case against anti-ICE activists in Minnesota - the Minneapolis 15 - is a big deal It's not just the 1st Amendment abuse. It's part of their plan to crush dissent ahead of a stolen election My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

The GOP is LIVID about Scrooge McDuck comparisons.

Regarding the 15 people indicted this week for participating in rapid response networks and anti-ICE protests, remember—don't believe a word you hear from any ICE mercenary, FBI or DHS agent, Department of Justice stooge, or representative of the federal government. chuffed.org/project/1865...

Christian Nationalism is a cancer on society

The people who were indicted on "Antifa" charges in Minnesota today are accused of participating in community rapid response networks like hundreds of thousands of other people around the country. Everyone up to @maddow.bsky.social has promoted these tactics. This concerns all of us. Resist.

GenAI is a tech bubble of hype and absurdity. It runs on nothing but vibes and dollar signs in billionaire's eyes. But that's why we must resist it. We broke NFTs, we broke the Metaverse, we can break this nonsense too.

Whether you rent or own, you deserve the chance to stay in the city you call home. This week, we cut the ribbon on dozens of apartments in Morningside Heights that have been transformed into permanently affordable co-ops.

I have never seen such a bunch of reactionaries in my life as the US media establishment. Someone with 0 followers & a sickle in the bio told you to go die so now all leftism is evil. some asshole on an ebike ran into your kid so now bike lanes must be destroyed. Its like watching children do meth

Some really crazy cases in here - cop looked up ex-girlfriend and family in Flock 100+ times - cop stalked wife giving "test" as reason - cop searched one plate 395 times in 10 months; was later fired Cops keep getting arrested for using Flock to stalk people www.404media.co/cops-keep-ge...

This is a journalist from 60 minutes describing how they tried to present Twin Cities protesters as violent. Nonetheless, Bari Weiss said it wasn't enough. Note the double standard: "violence" for ICE is murdering people, "violence" for protesters is raising their voices. crimethinc.com/violence

Everybody talks about how nothing is affordable anymore but no one talks about how poorly made and disposable things are. Part of the affordability crisis is because we keep repurchasing things, cars, appliances, clothes etc because things don’t last.

I think conspiracy may be a bad frame for right wing election denial because what they’re really expressing is a belief in is the idea that non-white people shouldn’t be able to vote.

There are currently more bills attacking trans youth’s right to play sports across the U.S. than there are trans youth in school sports.

So many people focused on Bari Weiss asking to make protesters look more violent and glossing over Pelley admitting they’d already dug deep for the most violent protester footage they could find. His interview is more of an indictment of corporate media than many want to admit.

No wonder the entrenched bureaucracy hates him to much. He's showing America that things REALLY can get better when you work on behalf of everyone, not for the Epstein class.

The Claude Code leak makes clear the extent to which the wrapping around the “LLM” itself does so much heavy lifting. The stochastic flock starts a murmuration in these places, which are also Anthropic’s way of constraining it. The flock escapes the aviary when systems interact. ⬇️

When a Republican who didn't even campaign is running ahead of the leading Democrat in a blue-leaning congressional district, you might want to rethink your election system.

Inside the Clashes at Delaney Hall Detention Center A participant in long-running mutual aid efforts at Delaney Hall describes how the clashes with federal, state, and local authorities unfolded during the hunger strike within the facility, offering a blow-by-blow account of ten days of resistance.

Chat, is it good when your marketing strategy is indistinguishable from a heroin dealer?

Police try to move press further back as arrests are made outside Delaney Hall, journalist @jonfarina (@statuscoup) wasn't having it.

I am begging Democratic leadership: don't make fear the strategy for 2028. The GOP attacks everyone. It doesn't matter if it's a woman, a man, a Christian, a moderate, or a progressive. Pick the best candidate. Trust voters. Meet the moment instead of running from it. #ProudBlue

Reminiscent of the “no one cares about starving kids in Africa” reaction to the dismantling of USAID too.

Millions of Democratic voters are putting it together that the average Democratic politician has no intention of standing up for them, even as fascism arrives. This is a terrifying truth to face. But the good news is—we don't need them. They need us. We need each other. But we don't need them.

Today we announced the most ambitious housing plan in our City's modern history. We're building 200,000 affordable homes. We’re overhauling code enforcement. We’re cracking down on bad landlords. We’re creating tens of thousands of good-paying jobs.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine known as GLA-3M-052-LS+OVA, that protects against a wide range of respiratory viruses, bacteria AND even allergens. The vaccine is delivered intranasally AND provides broad protection in the lungs for several MONTHS.

We are going to savor this one. Our client, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, is freed of these outrageous, vindictive charges. It’s a good day.

It's actually terrifying how much the surveillance state has expanded with Flock cameras in our community since January 2024. Cities sign contracts with Flock, the police get access and Flock owns the data. Tech companies OPPRESS US. #Flock #Surveillance #BigTech Credit @jason.e.bassler

🤭 this Tesla owner is trying to drown it. It's working. It's stuck

Donald Trump has intertwined his wealth so fully with our government that the only solution is to nationalize his companies and assets, along with those of his entire family. In the interests of fairness, we can provide them a one bedroom apartment in public housing and minimum wage jobs.

When a federal agency tasked with protecting all Americans decides to mandate a specific religious worldview, it ceases to protect democracy and begins to threaten it.

People have already memory-holed how critical #TeslaTakeDown was. It was the earliest decentralized set of protests in the second term as early as Feb 2025 at a time when most people were shell-shocked and Dem leadership was cowering and capitulating. And it pushed Elon out of the WH.

"I have a genius plan to elect more democrats?" "What's that?" “I'm going to spend millions of dollars attacking popular progressives like Mamdani, AOC, Abdul El-Sayed, Chris Rabb, & Bernie!" "Brilliant!"

We keep hearing folks rejecting the warning bells about the trans genocide, saying “it’s not like there’s gas chambers & ovens”. Aside from the reality that the Holocaust didn’t start w/ gas chambers & ovens, this comes from an ignorant understanding of what a genocide is. Let’s talk about it. 1/15
