They refused to probe a murder. The people with consciences walked out. 🚨 NEW: At least four leaders of the DOJ Civil Rights Division resigned because the section's head, Harmeet Dhillon, decided not to investigate shooting of Renee Good.

It's a cotdamned masterpiece of a photo. @pulitzerprizes.bsky.social

hegseth is just anakin skywalker, exhibit #69

screw it, i’m gonna do another crackpot star wars theory none of the religious content in Star Wars is proven to be true. if we treat the camera as more or less reflecting the viewpoint of some human character in a given scene, what we know are that some religious people had some visions

Here’s a great whistle 3D print file. I can confirm it’s loud as hell, and very easy and cheap to print in bulk. www.thingiverse.com/thing:2933021

It's upsetting to even think about this way but you frame it well.

many commercial jets have been blown out of the sky because they were believed to be covert military aircraft. Secretary Hegseth just gave every SAM site on the planet an excuse to take pot shots at any 737s they think are suspicious, and now we’re all less safe

This is very very funny (also kinda mean). “Fascination with feces” lol www.reddit.com/r/ICEwatchMN...

If you're in Massachusetts, LUCE is a great organization to join, but if you go to the bottom of their website you can see a coalition of groups supporting immigrants across the state.

that’s how you thread the affordability + ICE needle

War crimes upon war crimes. Gift link.

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this: America's problems are solved problems. Just not here. What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵

What are your rights if ICE shows up at your home, workplace, or school? How do you make a safety plan? Written by Anna Nguyen

Dropping this here. Very useful! theridecafe.com/2025/09/14/a...

the crime of perfidy is in many ways among the most heinous because it invites further war crimes in response (namely, targeting civilians or issuing no quarter orders) as the sole means of defense against them.

I am, in fact, triggered by someone being murdered by the Gestapo and our government lying about it and celebrating the murder. It’s time for decent people to decide where they stand — with the Gestapo and its supporters, the juvenile shitposting government, or with America.

He’s a child. The same age as my child

I don't mean to get controversial, but I think US agencies should avoid echoing "Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fuhrer."

Six-byline alert: 🚨 “.. laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status to fool adversaries into dropping their guard, then attacking and killing them. That is a war crime called ‘perfidy.’” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/01/12/u...

A term like "immigration crackdown" is no longer sufficient to describe what's happening in Minneapolis. We're seeing a state terror campaign being waged by the regime's paramilitary forces.

Does she think that the problem with CSAM is just that children might see it? That it’s OK if consumed only by adults, like alcohol? 😳

God, imagine a policy so shitty that Bessent would criticize Trump for it.

ICE observers in the Twin Cities are in need of dash cams to prevent further intimidation and frivolous claims. Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/... If you've been looking for a way to help, we'd sure appreciate it!

“Pro-Auschwitz Republican” is a hell of a thing to read.

Why, it's almost as if Stancil is a perfectly normal person and a good egg, and it's the people who have made obsessing over his every action as if it proves his innate perfidy who are the weirdos.

NEW: GoFundMe strictly bans fundraisers for “the legal defense of financial and violent crimes,” yet is currently running one “to help pay for any legal services” for the ICE agent who killed Renee Nicole Good. Its conflict is not even the least bit contestable.

Last night, Toronto Police were blitzing working delivery cyclists and ticketing them for parking on the road AND on the sidewalk (in front of food pick up spots on Yonge). 2 hours later one of the ticketed cyclists captured a pic of officers on a Timmies run while parked in a bike lane. No tickets.

The principle being contended for – they're very explicit about this – is that trying to watch what the secret police does, for purposes of democratic accountability, is a capital offense Indeed, that citizen observers have no rights that the secret police is bound to respect

News --> Senator Mark Kelly just filed a lawsuit against Pete Hegseth, alleging that his campaign of retribution violates the First Amendment and is designed to silence congressional criticism of Trump. He calls on the court to end this harassment. Strong stuff here:

Handy tip: If they’re wearing “Police” markings, but insist on keeping their identities secret, what you have there are secret police. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_...

On the phone with them right now. You can host the armed goons terrorizing our families, or you can host us.
