Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left. It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

The fact that mainstream media stopped covering ICE kidnappings in LA isn't because ICE stopped kidnapping (they didn't) Or ICE slowed down (they have actually increased their tempo) Or that resistance to ICE slowed down (it never stopped, it grew) It's the "political showdown" that stopped.

libertarians and radical centrists bursting through the wall like the kool-aid man to make sure everyone knows they think children can be hot

Her response to the State of the Union was one of the weirdest things I've watched over the last decade. The Onion can't top this. youtu.be/1Thbs_tLH8I

Friendly reminder that Barro was the Center on the show "Left, Right, and Center" lmao

It's fucking nauseating the way these people pretend like it was a bunch of 16 year old girls just lining up to have sex with this man and not a coordinated effort to pay, blackmail, and/or threaten vulnerable teenagers into being sex trafficked by a man with infinite resources and protections

This level of apologia (from Megan McArdle in a podcast with Josh Barro and Ross Douthat) is fucking appalling. Idk what else there is to say.

Breaking: The White House press secretary just said she "can't guarantee" that ICE won't be around polling locations in November.

Cops were frequently getting caught planting drugs in 2017 because body cameras were new and many of them didn't understand how the technology worked. When cops hit "record" it saved the 30 seconds from *before* they hit the button. Eventually, they figured it out.

Happy publish week to @letsgomathias.bsky.social, one of the most thoughtful and compelling reporters I’ve ever worked with. “To Catch A Fascist” is a view from the trenches in a secret war, fomented by an anonymous group of violent hate-mongers — anonymous until now. Get this book!

‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." … She offered me $2600 to self-deport. I refused. I wanted to talk to my attorney. They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’

Just circling back on this one. Anybody?

Hey, remember that time I said that pointing out that AI is giving bad data to ICE is missing the point because ICE doesn't actually care if the data is good? Check out how right I am.

Charles Manson.

for donald trump's sake i hope nobody brings up politics at the olympics, an infamously politics-free zone

This morning at the Minnesota State Capitol. An ice sculpture that reads "PROSECUTE ICE". I'm told the organization behind the sculpture is Common Defense.

How many evangelical youth pastors barely making enough money to survive use that position of authority to do the same thing? The depravity of men willing to abuse has nothing to do with class. Any type of control or authority works for them regardless of class or net worth.

Actually starting to feel very allergic to the claim that Epstein's crimes are a function of his class. His money obviously increased the scale of his abuse and granted him additional impunity, but to say that wealth was the genesis of his depravity feels like willful blindness to gender.

Who are you going to believe, MechaHitler or your lying eyes?

Just as Jesus once said- we love concentration camps and the fascists that run them. Amen

I can't get this one out of my head.

@ethanscorey.bsky.social and I have published a database of congressmembers who received donations from ICE profiteers GEO Group, CoreCivic, and Management and Training Corporation. Look up your reps at @inthesetimes.com + @theappeal.org. inthesetimes.com/article/ice-....

For fuck's sake this is not "how men behave" it's how abusers behave. To whatever extent it's how too many men behave, it's because those men are abusers. And people who cater to abusers ... are also abusers. David Gelernter should never be allowed near students again.

Timely topic for these times. Read about some of our work in Chapter 15. Congratulations @letsgomathias.bsky.social the fascists are bound to lose. #IgnitetheRIght

If ICE agents didn't wear masks, they would be FAMOUS for all the wrong reasons. So if you wanna see mass resignations, prevent them from wearing masks. That said, abolishing ICE is the only way to truly prevent more violence, harm and murder.

Yes! #FreePalestine

Oh if you think you’re upset about Helen of Troy being Black, Western Man, just wait til you see twink Achilles

lmao 67 is dead already. Might as well call it "headquarters_NFT"

The Washington Post fired every one of its staff photographers yesterday.

I am speechless. "The National Park Service has removed visitor brochures from the Medgar & Myrlie Evers Home National Monument. Among the anticipated changes? No longer calling his murderer a 'racist.'" 🗃️ mississippitoday.org/2026/02/05/m...

The calipers lady is looking for someone to sell people on the Epstein stuff being a nothingburger, actually.

Klansman have officially been downgraded to ‘complicated’. Nazis currently ‘misunderstood’.

the biden border bill and choosing to run on a “border patrol endorsed” piece of legislation should go down as not only cowardly and backward thinking but one of the worst strategic political decisions by democrats in recent memory, everyone involved should be out of politics forever

My only point is Yale is, was, and always will be a wretched hive of scum and villainy

McArdle: “I went to school with a guy whose father was a moderately famous musician who had gotten arrested for exposing himself to a 14-year-old girl in the '70s and that was not that abnormal.” I wasn’t around for the 70s, but I dare say exposing yourself to 14 year olds was still abnormal.

American academia is *full* of people who think rape is not that big of a deal. esp of young women and girls.

good ole Yale

So much for making a martyr out of him...

Name them shame them

Wtf you talking bout? In other words, "stop killing us, just kill and harm the Black and Brown ppl?" Fuck you!

dawg the pedophiles are unionizing

It really sucks that Microsoft sunk its claws into so much of the game industry and is attached to a ton of games I wanna play. What sucks even more is supporting genocide, which is something Microsoft loves doing. I’m very in favor of Microsoft fucking off until it stops loving genocide so much.

Love the "joking, not joking" moment.

Can’t believe Trump is building a gigantic gold statue of Christopher Columbus, the infamous pedophile rapist murderer, arrested and imprisoned for his numerous crimes that were so bad for the SPANISH that it was like witnessing a Lovecraftian eldritch horror, and announcing it outside of October

New Quinnipiac poll: 63% of voters disapprove of ICE 60% want ICE out of Minneapolis 58% want Kristi Noem removed from office

Trump loves children, tweens, and teens so much he had his best friend Jeff introduce him to a bunch of them.
