Wow.

O'Keefe to Homan: "2 agents now on leave bc video evidence shows sworn testimony appears to be untruthful. DHS initially said officer who shot the migrant was being ambushed. Combine that w/ 2 deadly shootings & a Chicago incident where evidence contradicted govt - does this undermine trust in ICE?"

If Pam Bondi had any decency, she would resign.

Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."

McIVER: Do you consider yourself a religious man? LYONS: Yes mam McIVER: How do you think judgment day will work for you with so much blood on your hands? LYONS: I'm not going to entertain that question McIVER: Do you think you're going to hell, Mr Lyons?

So the feds ARE NOT considering an mRNA vaccine for the flu, which could save countless lives, but ARE backing research into whether horse dewormer can cure cancer, because the right views vaccines as elite and ivermectin as populist. Cool. kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Discord is about to require age verification for everyone #Discord

ICE exists to enforce CIVIL immigration law, not CRIMINAL law of any kind. Ergo, there is no legal justification for them: * to be armed. * to be masked. * to kidnap anyone they want when they require judicial warrants to make CIVIL arrests. * to provide security for the Vice President, ever.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

Starbucks Workers United baristas are escalating their fight for a fair contract. I urge you to keep boycotting Starbucks — and delete its app from your phone. Workers are fed up with low pay, chaotic scheduling, understaffing, and illegal union busting. Let's keep fighting corporate greed.

Oh my GOD, the White House copied our ad but made it completely deranged. The Nazi slop factory is all out of ideas! SAD!

For the first time ever, a state AG has filed a lawsuit to force a hospital back into providing gender affirming care for transgender youth. Our writer, S. Baum, dove deep and spoke with families that helped make this happen. You're going to want to read our latest, incredible story.

"ICE guys are pretty miserable. I don’t think morale is particularly high for them. They’re freezing, they’re getting shouted at. They can’t go anywhere without being tailed by 5 cars. They get out and immediately there's a crowd of 100 people shouting at them, blowing whistles as loud as they can."

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Today at school dismissal, I followed a suspicious pickup around for a bit, keeping an eye on them, trying to figure out if they were ICE. Then I realized they were keeping an eye on me also. Then I realized they were, in fact, other parents. Life in Minnesota, January 2026.

Folds on the Kennedy Center 3 weeks ago: I was sick to my stomach when I quit because I knew they were going to run it into the ground. No one that they were appointing had any experience in arts administration, but that was never the point. The point was to take that, run over it, and move on.

It's been fun seeing The Consultants lose their mind about how they don't get this ad, which is the coolest shit she's done yet. (Also, yes, that's Matt Mercer, who I've come to learn since this ad dropped is more famous than Michael Jordan.)

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

Concerning

Don was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles.

This is a cover up of a murder, led by our own federal government.

Democrats Condemn ICE For Murdering Without Proper Warrants https://theonion.com/democrats-condemn-ice-for-murdering-without-proper-warrants/

This number DOES NOT include those starved, crushed, missing or killed by disease resulting from the attack.

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

it is beautiful how we are having another moment of Bluesky unity. everybody basking in the glow of how Ilhan Omar was very visibly gonna punch that dude in the mouth

Murphy on Bovino: "That was a bone-chilling interview. I was shaking while I was listening to it, in large part bc it takes just an unbelievable amount of gall to lie to the American public. Everybody saw that video ... it should freak the public out that the Trump administration lies this easily"

You know this isn’t okay. You made a bad decision but that doesn’t make you a bad person. Unless you refuse to correct it when you know it’s wrong.

This is the man executed by ICE on January 24, 2026. A nurse at the VA hospital taking care of our country’s veterans. Alex Jeffrey Pretti, an American hero. 🇺🇸

It's time for a truly massive general strike. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-enough

Yes we do, we know exactly what ICE saw because we have video of it. We see them take the firearm and I'm fairly certain the agent that disarmed him negligently discharged the firearm causing the other agents to kill him. There is a frame where the slide is back matching the first gunshot

WELKER: Video seems to show an officer removing a gun before Mr. Pretti was shot. Was he disarmed before those shots were fired? BLANCHE: I do not know and nobody else knows either, which is why we're doing an investigation

This is, quite literally, our collective duty.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

AOC: "How rich is it that she is saying showing up to the scene of a protest with a legally owned weapon should be grounds for a person's death, execution at the hands of the state, by the same party and administration that praises Kyle Rittenhouse."

How the BBC sees it today.

Hey NRA, are you good with this? THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

FBI agent resigns after Good civil rights investigation shut down. "She was then ordered to reclassify it as an investigation into an assault on the officer.... [the DoJ's] Todd Blanche [told] Fox News Sunday... the shooting did not warrant a federal investigation." www.kare11.com/article/news...

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Gov. Tim Walz: "Thank God we have video, because according to DHS, these seven heroic guys took an onslaught of a battalion against them or something. It's nonsense, people. It's nonsense and it is lies."

Minnesota's state FBI-like bureau is suing Noem. It says before pre-emptively declaring the killing righteous and abandoning the crime scene, feds took exclusive custody of evidence, including "apparently seized cellphones." MN asserts a sovereign right to investigate crimes within its borders.

This is on one level amazing and on another level a lovely bit of art

How much of that first ten grand bonus that each ICE officer got do you guys think went on sports betting. Gotta be like 90% minimum right

The nurses are pissed

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."
