This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility. Read this thread. Don’t look away. Keep your eyes and the pressure on Broadview.

One of the funnier parts of Laura Loomer's bonkers deposition in her lawsuit against Bill Maher is how grumpy Larry Klayman is. Like, it was either his nap time, or he was seriously regretting his life choices.

Ngl, sandwich guy's lawyer has got to be a secret screenplay writer or comedic novelist because in one sentance she's manages to reduce the border patrol agent to a 10 year old carrying his favorite plushie and a lunchbox to school everyday.

I feel like Sandwich guy's defense attorney may have majored in creative writing in college, because these 2 sentences are just absolutely beautiful.

Looks like that "felony footlong" was a nothing burger.

And while they're at it, enforce the General Assembly veto on Youngkin BoT appointments at several Virginia universities!

Thanks for sharing @sisresearch.bsky.social !

I see Conde Nast is taking the @washingtonpost.com approach here. Fire your top writers ➡️ insult your readers ➡️ lose subscriptions. That's been a disaster for wapo. They've lost more than ~300k subscribers. And new/returning subscribers pay much less than they did before. Bend the knee capitalism

What's so interesting about this whole Heritage Foundation thing is how surprised some of these guys are to discover there are nazis in the maga coalition. Seriously, what did they think trump meant when he said "there are good people on both sides" after 2017's unite the right rally in C'ville?

This is awful news. Sign of you can.

Menswear history is so much more interesting than I ever thought possible!

Imagine being David Ignatius and realizing your boss Will Lewis is headhunting Olivia Reingold to join you in writing for the @washingtonpost.com editorial page. We live in the stupidest of times.

This thread is gutting to read. I know @mayorbowser.dc.gov is trying to save home rule, but if you're letting your police dept. help ICE kidnap your Latino residents, tear kids from their parents, and surveil construction sites and schools, you don't really have home rule.

Not my biological aunt, still my auntie! (Auntie = respect)

@jaketapper.bsky.social this looks like your beat!

@washingtonpost.com is trying to get readers who canceled their subscriptions to come back. But why would any one pay for propoganda? You can get the old man's yelling at clouds drivel for free on truth social. And, yes, I know some good journos still work there but the stench is too much to bear

This horror fable has 3 very modern villians: 1. a millionaire slumlord hiding behind an LLC 2. a management company doing said slumlord's dirty work 3. A federal police agency (ICE) morphing into the oligarchy's private army.

Strange tags on raided apartments, a slumlord speculator under water with the bank & eviction drives in a gentrifying neighborhood. @rebeccaburns.bsky.social investigates how tenants were systematically targeted during September's military-style raid of a Chicago apartment building @inthesetimes.com

Last week the @washingtonpost.com sent us a free paper, asking us to renew the subscription we'd cancelled. To do that WAPO will need to restart the metro and sports pages, rehire @karenattiah.bsky.social and @marcfisher.bsky.social and fire Will Lewis.

ICE has lost George Will. (gift link from my uni access) wapo.st/3WRMcKG

Great news. USIP's lawyer called MPD thinking they'd help keep DOGE at bay, and instead they helped them get in. That's when I realized MPD wasn't on DC's side and didn't care about home rule. I still remember feeling like someone gut punched me.

I would never have expected @politico.com to dig into the current republican zeitgeist in a critical way, but these last few weeks have surprised me. Deep reporting on hateful chats btw young republicans & gleeful references to Hitler by administration nominees. And now a genealogy of GOP toxicity.

I know several Americans who are afraid to carry their passports w/ them. They worry that if they are detained bc they fit the profile, ICE will take their passport & 'lose' it. Many don't want to be w/out a passport right now, even for the relatively short time it would take to replace one.

My students couldn't take their exam yesterday bc Canvas lockdown browser was down (which I use to prevent having to read Ai generated answers). But on the positive side, I got a free lunch bc the register & credit card reader at subway were also down. Today's ensh*ttification win/loss ratio.

Genuinely curious about the backstory behind all these leaks. Are they the part of an internecine war between different camps of nazis or has some republican finally developed a hint of a moral compass?

Its official, I am a K Drama fan. I've spent the last few weeks watching Crash Landing on You. It was swoon worthy, but the thing i wasn't expecting was how funny it was. ❤️

The most notable thing about this video, besides the condescending entitlement dripping off him, is his anger at being separated from his kids. He probably got to see his kids the next day. Most of the people taken into ice detention centers will go months or years without seeing their kids.

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

Hilarious to see jury nullification turned against maga prosecutors. When I was researching militias in the late 1990s, militias were often part of the fully informed jury movement, which told people to find defendants charged w crimes against the state as innocent no matter what the evidence

BREAKING: USC HAS JOIN THE RESISTANCE! That’s four (MIT, Brown, Penn, USC) of the nine schools Trump targeted. Stay tuned! 🍿 #DefendHigherEd #StandUpFightBack

ICE has moved way beyond aggressive policing. Their behavior is antisocial if not sociopathic

This whole revolting episode has me thinking about who the GOP is and how it got that way. The 1970s 'new right' coalition contained 3 constituencies: big business, evangelicals, and neocons. The new right put up a fence that kept the Birchers, racists, conspiracists outside the fence line. 1/

I'm shocked—SHOCKED! to find racism is going on in here!

Alex Jones' last (I hope) hail Mary pass has failed. Time to go back to bankruptcy court and start selling his assets so the families get their due (which will never be enough).

Imagine being the billionaire that runs the paper that broke Watergate into the ground.

Prevent 22 million people from losing healthcare is a moral goal. Eliminating ACA subsidies is a recipie for disaster bc most recipients can't afford ACA w/out them. Kids will miss yearly appointments at the pediatrician. People will die of cancer bc they can't afford surgery/chemo. The list goes on

We are an independent, nonprofit newsroom with more than 150 dedicated journalists. For those who want to read the facts of our reporting — and the documents on which it is based — here’s the full story:

More sociopathic and immoral behavior from ICE. Children should NEVER be separated from their parents. It's revolting.

It's good to hear political candidates for office saying the obvious. ICE is acting like the secret police and are operating outside the law (and also breaking the law). It honestly makes my stomach churn to see all the horrible videos of their behavior.

Grandpa Rock over here complaining about the young ones' fashion choices while wearing a cowboy hat and red sunglasses in his basement.

A big thanks to @mit.edu. Their saying NO to the compact will hopefully make it easier for smaller schools to say no as well. This is a collective action problem & MIT is signalling they're choosing cooperation over self interest. Too bad @columbiauniversity.bsky.social didn't do this earlier

Thanks to @ggwash.org for letting me write this piece on Montgomery Co. as part of the Homelessness Crisis Reporting Project. In the DMV, Montgomery County saw the biggest numeric increase during this period. I look at how service providers like Shepherd's Table see the problem & are responding.
