hell yes

Some jawdropping CBP crime statistics here...

Chotiner shot that man right in the face with his own gun and he never heard the *click*.

They get mad over on twitter about following federal law, in this case 8 U.S.C. § 1158

We don’t owe them anything. They spent a decade ignoring obvious evidence implicating the most guilty while fabricating insane accusations against the innocent.

I visited hotels all over Minneapolis, went into back rooms & talked to the staff. They're afraid. One told me she resents how her undocumented coworkers spend their days cleaning the rooms of agents who are “hunting down their family members.” @notus.com: www.notus.org/immigration/...

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

People have been debating the meaning and usefulness of ”the professional managerial class”. One thing that might be useful would be reframe PMC as a mode of politics rather than a category of people. Specifically, the use of professional norms as a form of collective action. Like this:

So believe me I understand this is deeply frustrating and unfair, but a march that does everything right and still gets tear gassed is a successful march that is winning. A lot of the strategy of protest is luring the authorities into engaging in obviously, transparently unjust uses of force.

Big milestone for little Bao! 💙 Our otter pup is tasting and mouthing shrimp for the first time, an important step in learning how to eat solid foods. Dad Sebastian provided the shrimp. Bao provided the theft. 🍤😂 📹: Animal care staff Chrissy & Katie

HAPPY BOSTON MOONINITE PANIC DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

Smuggling things onto Drag Race has gotten crazy.

The entire arena chanting HAIL SATAN

Brother, I have pitched your outlet on this for half a decade.

“Anthony-Evenson, who knows ASL, said the hands spelled out ‘ICE out’ by using the sign for ‘ice’ and the ‘resistance fist.’”

We need to shut down the word "performative" until we can figure out what the hell is going on. Of course adopting symbols of protest and resistance is performative! Performance is a core strategy for mass movements!! That's why the call them demonstrations!!!

Quilicura, Chile, one of the communities I wrote about in EMPIRE OF AI, has launched a brilliant initiative to inspire more responsible AI prompting. Today, don't use AI; ask the townspeople instead: quili.ai. So heartened to see this creative act of resistance.

Someone in town has these flags, and they've been hanging upside down since Good was shot:

Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible

xbox live took stronger action against jeffrey epstein than the entire us government

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall. But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

Thousands of people filled the streets of downtown Minneapolis in protest of federal immigration enforcement for the second consecutive Friday. 📷️: Aaron Lavinsky

"Lindsey Graham is shutting down the entire federal government to steal hundreds of thousands of your dollars for himself" is the kinda thing that really ought to get mainstream reporters asking more questions about How Is That Fucking Legal and Hey Guys Have You Seen This Fucking Bullshit

I may have a stroke. Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.” A PROTESTant. I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

Here's an opportunity to support the other journalist arrested today; Georgia Fort, who will have far fewer resources available to her than Don Lemon.

Let me reiterate: THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUYS TO PERSECUTE LARGE NUMBERS OF DISSENTERS. What they are doing, instead, is using fear and paranoia as a force multiplier: they don’t have to persecute us if we keep ourselves home because someone told us we can’t walk in public without being terrified.

DOE wiped the last vestiges of “deliveryism” away a few days ago, cancelling the last cluster of loans and loan guarantees designed to secure a new partisan ceasefire in America. Barely warranted notice outside of industry periodicals.

rip to a FUCKING LEGEND

reminder that a small handful of Republicans in the House and Senate could end this madness today

Anyway congrats to our Free Speech Champions(tm) who helped usher in the most censorious American government since the Palmer Raids

A Chicago woman shot 5 times by border agents will testify in Washington next week. blockclubchi.co/4bsViGq

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.

Excited for Professor Wurman's new brief, "Why the Original Meaning of the First Amendment Does Not Include Black Journalists"

Don Lemon was arrested because he’s a black man and Donald Trump is an easily distracted, racist demagogue with an ever shrinking number of non-pedophile friends who is incapable of decency but wants to change the subject. To spin this any other way is to lie.

tbh I am less interested in how they're doing it than I am in what they're doing with the info (punishing u.s. citizens for legal and constitutionally protected actions) www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/t...

No vote tonight on the funding deal because — and I am not making this up — Lindsey Graham was insisting on undoing this so he can personally enrich himself to the tune of millions in taxpayer dollars

People just going out here saying the literal opposite of what happened. Thune caved! Thune did! This is a cave by Thune and Senate Republicans, any possible way you cut it.

The reform I want is the "no, you can't just ship alleged undocumented immigrants out the country without a real Article 3 judge adjudicating their case" reform. The existence of a rubber stamp fake court system for something so consequential is abhorrent.

We could all use a little baby Bao right now. 💙

the issue with american politics is that not that there's no taboo against lying, but rather that there's zero taboo against outright fantasy and delusion. i'm not talking about things like "we can have everything without raising taxes" esque stuff.

[0007010] Cave-in not occurring when I'm pretty sure it should

Sean Grayson, the sheriff’s deputy who shot and killed Sonya Massey in 2024, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison. He was found guilty of second-degree murder last fall.

"Zoe Hamburger made managing director of McDonald's Netherlands" @actualnames.bsky.social

Doing this lead to several deaths in The Odyssey alone.
