There's a real glut of AI videos of men of the cloth in full regalia chewing out ICE officers and the way I was able to identify them is: When men of the cloth get involved, it makes news, as in Rev. David Black. So if there's real footage of a priest screaming at ICE at a CHURCH it will be NEWS.

Hey 2A folks: is this the tyranny you’ve claimed you need your guns to protect against? The only diff btw these and Ruby Ridge is that, unlike Weaver, these folks were all unarmed. Or was tyranny always a ruse - you just love guns?

This is harassment, plain and simple. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/08/u...

A reminder that ICE violence IS gun violence.

RIP free market capitalism.

This is the video.

My periodic reminder to NEVER donate money to candidates in a primary outside your state. Locals will know whom the strongest candidate is. Outsiders throwing money at candidates b/c of social media are how we got Amy McGrath, John Fetterman and others, while locals wanted other candidates.

Couldn’t make the cut for ICE? There’s a new job opening for you.

I can’t think of anyone who would be a stronger voice for District 3 than @lindseyboylan.bsky.social

Have they renamed the country to Trumpezuela yet?

Continued fallout from SCOTUS 2022 Heller decision, which was wrong at the time and remains wrong today. I assume California will emulate the laws we passed in NY in 2022 to counter this decision. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/02/u...

I was curious, so I looked it up. Trump's three cognitive exams were on 1/12/18, 9/13/23 and 4/11/25 — not, as he suggested today, recently. www.pbump.net/o/when-were-...

Wasn’t he a Long Island resident anyway?

Strong move. Every EO Adams pushed through is tainted by his indictment and should be assumed to have corrupt intentions.

This is the best that the Post can do? Sad

New year, new start!

Which Tiny Desk made an audio engineer question everything? Which one made a producer want to cry? Touch grass? Look back on the year in Tiny Desk, with the people who make them.

And in California, former volunteer-turned-Assemblymember Catherine Stefani (pictured) co-sponsored a first-of-its-kind bill blocking the sale of pistols that can be easily converted into machine guns. These victories prove what happens when advocates run for office: gun safety wins!

damn that baby looks cool as hell

Having drinks at a rooftop bar with a friend. Communal seating on big cushions & sofas. Couple sitting with their backs literally up against ours get up to leave and we realize it was Claire Danes.

Ironic to see mathematicians on the list, considering most AI models (at least LLMs) are designed to guess the next token and tend to do poorly at computation. Though as new models are trained on math, that should change.

Julie K. Brown, the tenacious Miami Herald reporter whose strong reporting on the Epstein case is the reason his crimes were not forgotten, discovers from released Epstein file materials that she was being monitored by the DOJ in Trump 1. Why?

joining the "cybertruck owners only" group on fb is one of the best decisions i've ever made. every so often when i'm scrolling through fb getting pissed off, i get to see a little treat like this

If you’re a fan of competition in a critical tech space, you’re not a fan of this deal.

Warm wishes for a joyful Kwanzaa! May the seven principles—unity, self-determination, collective work, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith—guide us as we honor culture, community, and our shared commitment to justice and joy.

Hey @northwellhealth.bsky.social Your Tarrytown urgent care wanted me to have an EKG yesterday; after 90 minutes they couldn’t get machine to work. They tried Yorktown, but EKG was broken there. Told me to instead go to Dobbs Ferry today. I arrived - and learned EKG machine broken here too

To Prez, this remains one of best community notes of all time. To prove we can’t be beaten this idiot tweets a picture of 5 of our warships, 4 of which had been sunk. The remaining is probably now out of action. I am surrounded by idiocy

The government failed at actually redacting the Epstein files because DOGE cancelled the feds adobe acrobat premium subscription is the funniest shit.

I’m not saying they know me, but my wife and daughter both got me this book.

Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate.

Phone calls home help maintain the connection when loved ones are separated maintaining that connection can translate into a softer landing when being released. This is just cruel and bad policy if you truly want people to be rehabilitated, which we know they don’t.

Honestly didn’t think Santacon could get worse but they found a way!

I promise this integration of Indian classical music into Radiohead's Creep, from Avie Sheck and his mom Uma Pant, will delight your ears and heart. Merry Christmas.

These weapons are legally owned in Tennessee & gun owners are allowed to openly carry assault weapons, shot guns & handguns without permits or training. Meanwhile gun deaths in Tennessee hit a record high in 2023, with nearly 1,600 fatalities, averaging one every six hours. @newtownaction.org

I count 10 cities in 2025 that are on track to have the fewest murders since at least 1970. Newark is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1956 (though only have data through Oct this year) and San Francisco is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1942.

TBF, Bari Weiss has gotten many of us to watch a 60 Minutes segment, something we hadn’t done in many years.

!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social: is.gd/paU8Ko (It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)

Between gun policy and vaccine policy, they won’t be happy until the child mortality rate is back where it was in the 19th century.

BREAKING: The Trump administration is suing D.C. over its ban on semi-automatic (AR-15) weapons. DOJ's Civil Rights Division under Harmeet Dhillon is seeking a court ruling that D.C.'s law "prohibiting registration of the AR-15 by law-abiding citizens violates the Second Amendment."

If you like how Bari Weiss and CBS are handling the CECOT story, you’ll love how the Ellisons will run CNN if Skydance acquires Warner Bros Discovery.

The White House has a “kill switch” on CBS News stories. The White House also has a “call Bezos” switch on WaPo stories. The media is broken
