This city is home to people of countless faiths. But no matter what you believe, one thing unites us: we are all New Yorkers. We will not allow ICE to terrorize our neighbors. youtu.be/uoU9Img_B40

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it. I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.” 1/

wild to me that grand juries - grand juries, the part of the legal system where the only ones presenting their case are the government! - have shown more resistance to all of this than most elite institutions

New NHTSA crash data, combined with Tesla’s new disclosure of robotaxi mileage, reveals Tesla’s autonomous vehicles are crashing at a rate much higher than human drivers, and that’s with a safety monitor in every car. Tesla has reported 9 crashes involving its robotaxi fleet in Austin, TX. /1

An important thread. I would be doing this myself if in the US.

I love this guy, very calming using historical analogy reading his city council for filth.

Open letter from students from various central Indiana high schools explaining why they are organizing walkouts in protest of ICE. Hard not to get emotional in response to the moral clarity on display.

random Yale law professor: jeffrey you naughty dog.... will i be seeing you at this year's Skull Size Forum or will you be busy with your hobbies ;) JE: we must invent trans phobia,,

People have been shouting for years that no one should be a billionaire, that wealth on that level is personally poison and societally catastrophic, and now we have millions of terribly written emails demonstrating in the clearest terms that every one of those shouts was impossibly correct.

This is the Occam's Razor take. They do it because they can. A world with a power structure that even slightly tilts away from them is simply intolerable to them.

Springfield (eating the dogs / cats) Ohio desperately needs your help with ICE. Ohio Gov Mike DeWine said it will be “the next Minneapolis” as 15,000 Haitians (1/4th of the entire city) will have their TPS status prematurely revoked Weds Feb 4th. Here are links to donate and volunteer directly: 1/

Just think about the amazing Epstein scoops the new CBS Evening News contributors will have just by interviewing each other.

It’s an affront to the idea of a written constitution that this case will reach oral argument.

This is grim. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Fun fact about new Fed chair Kevin Warsh: he’s married to the daughter of billionaire makeup baron Ronald Lauder, the guy who also convinced Trump he desperately needed to seize Greenland, which helped his own business interests. It’s grifting all the way down www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I remember a podcast I listened to described it something like: "In many protest movements you hear 'this radicalized me' but that's not what I see here. These aren't people who are radicalized. Not wanting children to be kidnapped is not a radical position."

ICE are alllll over Harlem right now, 116 & Frederick Douglass, checking IDs and targeting the area’s African community. Multiple people have been detained. Community members are advising folks to carry citizenship documents - or stay away if they are at risk

In every possible way, Fiona Apple is a real one. lethergohome.org

does anyone want to guess how many little children have died in camps while dick durbin and democrats had a trifecta, aka the power to “reform” it? hint: it ain’t zero

"I am 5 years old" Shut it all down. All of it. ICE, DHS, Border Patrol, the entire Republican Party, all the fascist billionaires, X, Tesla, Avelo, and every Democrat who supports them. It's evil through and through.

I was trying to determine what the feeling I'm experiencing tonight is, and it's...hope? That regular people fucking broke shit up, without waiting for any useless elected fucks to do anything about it. the bullies have been stood up to and were revealed to be impotent cowards with no fucking game

Shout out to my student who, after reading about Indian Removal and the Trail of Tears said, "You know, all of this is giving...ICE"

I do think that a possibly underrated dynamic in The Horrors is that the Right as it has reconstituted itself under Trump legitimately can’t understand sincere moral or physical courage

Trump and his allies are already smearing Alex Pretti’s name instead of confronting the truth. Veterans who served our country and lived because of the VA are outraged. Alex was a VA nurse and hero, not a villain. Stay informed. Join the fight. Follow @saveamericamvmt.bsky.social

This is a white supremacist paramilitary operation. Their goal—their stated goal!—is to force America to submit to the President's racist domineering vision for the country. The sooner everybody starts confronting it on the terms that they themselves have stated, the better.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

This is why organizing that reaches for relationality is central, not secondary - it breaks the capitalist idea of us as atomized, individual consumers and compels us to act in solidarity with others. And, perhaps more than anything, it's a politics more rooted in cultivating belonging than ideology

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Hello from Portland Maine, where 88 of about 550 kids were absent from my youngest’s middle school yesterday, hiding from ICE.

Everybody matters in a bucket brigade, as long as you’re actually holding a bucket

“nobody is insider trading off his death so it almost certainly didn’t happen” really sums up the state of the world in 2026 huh

I think people underestimate how big this is. Like a city-wide strike is not something that has happened in the US for nearly 100 years

Look for the helpers

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

“Now is the time”: Minnesota calls for general strike on January 23 to drive ICE out Faith groups, labor unions, community organizations, businesses, and more have come together to mobilize millions to withdraw from the economy on the day of action. peoplesdispatch.org/2026/01/13/n...

The message about not ceding my spiritual and emotional sovereignty is what I needed to hear.

For people elsewhere who have asked how to support Minnesota while we’re overrun with nazi thugs, here’s an excellent list of places that could use financial help. Lots of choices. Thank you so much! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

You know who else died of a medical emergency in a detention center? Anne Frank

To be real clear This is not about evidence. No new harm have been discovered. This is about personal beliefs. It's about power. It's about controlling you. It WILL cause harm. Panel Votes to End Recommendation for Hepatitis B Shots for All Newborns. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/05/h...

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries: “Strong floor, no ceiling” Colombian President Gustavo Petro: “A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy.”

Frikkin amazing stuff.

I think it’s pretty clear at this point that one of the main impacts of LLMs is to disrupt thinking: to make it so that far too many people never properly learn how to do it, and then to control the output so there are thoughts that people never learn how to think.

I'm a Nuzzi/Lizza truther. Considering the character they clearly share (rapacious attention seekers with an utter lack of integrity) here's my theory: they are in cahoots on this whole thing (which is more or less true) and hoping the story will be optioned.

It is genuinely incredible to me how much evidence there is to support investing in the public good and how much animus there is to do this simple, effective thing.

Every time I see a clip of RFK, I’m shook anew. He’s the crypt keeper y’all!!!! We put death itself in charge of health!!!!!!

Could argue the misogyny Summers expressed both publicly while president of Harvard and in emails to Epstein says more about the culture at our most elite institutions than any of the frontpage freakouts over academia in the past few years but hey

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans: Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet. So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.
