I've been insisting to my screenwriting instructor that I could see pilot season and specs REALLY trying to make a comeback thanks to a new incoming class of showrunners and execs who see the errors of the streaming boom. It will happen. Pls let it happen. I would really love a job after school :)

I deleted a post of mine that said they were going to arrest Tim Walz as a show of force after feeling it was a little fearmonger-y. But alas...

"A fellow detainee says he witnessed Geraldo Lunas Campos being choked to death by guards at an ICE detention center in Texas on Jan. 3."

Posts from Minneapolis residents read like they'll be read in voiceover in a Ken Burns-like doc one day

the president has declared war on an american state and the leaders of the opposition wont shut the fuck up about retraining the stormtroopers

This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars. ictnews.org/news/north-c...

Hey! Remember when we, the New York Times, sane-washed Trump and aggressively spread anti-trans hate to help get him elected? Well, as a little treat, we've got some recipes you can can actually afford in our newly crafted economic Hellscape! Enjoy the recession the right way! With Tuna & Rice!

Near Lyndale and 24th Ave in Minneapolis tonight, feds have reportedly shot another person. Preliminary info is shaky for now, hearing two people injured. BORTAC just rolled up in an armored vehicle. A crowd is gathering outside the police tape—MPD presence as well.

That is what was relayed

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

now that's more like it

Yeah, when I'm trying to identify the masked thugs smashing a car window and dragging a woman on her way to the doctor's out through the shattered glass, I'm sure I'll be able to get a foot or so away to scan. Absolutely centrist Dem-brained useless pablum.

"TJ Sabula, a 40-year-old UAW Local 600 line worker at the factory, told The Post he was the one who shouted at Trump. He said he has been suspended from work pending an investigation. 'As far as calling him out, definitely no regrets whatsoever,' Sabula said" www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

“The founder of ICE List, a website which shares the first & last names of ICE and Border Patrol agents and DHS employees enforcing the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, said that a DHS whistleblower shared with him the personal information of close to 4,500 federal agents & employees.”

ive seen more articles this week about how the phrase “abolish ice” could hurt dems in the midterms than ive seen articles about how paramilitary death squads terrorizing cities will hurt republicans in the midterms

Jacob Frey told ICE agents to get the fuck out of Minneapolis, a hugely popular viral moment, and the media has been browbeating him over it ever since. Trump flipped a guy off and told him fuck you and it’s barely acknowledged.

Federal prosecutors are reportedly investigating MI Sen. Elissa Slotkin over her part in a social media video reminding military members that they may refuse illegal military orders www.detroitnews.com/story/news/p...

The worker who called Trump a “pedophile protector” has been suspended. He says he has “definitely no regrets whatsoever,” adding: “I don’t feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity. And today I think I did that.” wapo.st/4sG38CD

The president said "Fuck you" to a citizen and only the citizen will face any consequences

What a fuckin bar

it doesn't. And maybe that's what's needed. America has been a failed state for a while. It's not working. Capitalism isn't working. It's time for something profoundly different.

Unions and community orgs are calling for a Minnesota-wide shutdown in 10 days to protest the ferocious assault by federal immigration agents. They're saying on Jan 23, no work, no school, no shopping. SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, & others are supporting, w/ more to join. By me, Amie Stager

This one made me laugh hard enough to put my phone down bc no one on this platform can top the visual here. Outstanding.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

i think powell's response here is a demonstration of the folly of the idea that democratic accountability requires presidential control. what if the president is not acting in the public interest? you want independent agencies to be able to push back and pursue their *congressional mandate*

The animating force at the heart of US conservatism currently is incandescent rage at the mere idea of women's autonomy and independence. An image of a smiling woman who looks insufficiently deferential for their tastes riles them up enough to tear up the social contract.

TRUMP 2026: SHUT UP OR WE’LL KILL YOU

Let's be clear (and I'm not being cute): this is DHS trying to get ahead of the inevitable moment when they shoot a baby.

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

The current Dem leadership is failing to meet the moment. Not because it doesn't understand the situation, but because the party has always existed to protect institutions for the benefit of capital, even when that leads to an outcome where someone like Trump openly abuses it against the people.

you'll never get me to believe dems dont coordinate this shit to decide who can take the hit and vote for the fascist capitalist shit that they all also support and who gets to pretend they were against it

Those social media smear campaigns against women, especially queer women, laid the path to people celebrating the murder of a queer woman by a man in a uniform who called her a “fucking bitch” afterward. They unlocked the entitlement and rage to cheer gender-based violence from the online sidelines.

Here's the full moment of silence including a fan yelling "Go home, ICE"

1. ICE will kill you. 2. Trumpists will lie to justify it. 3. Because they are all thug trash.

A Republican House member endorsing the open murder of an American on the streets of Minneapolis.

I’m at the spot where ICE murdered Renee Nicolle Good today, along with my daughter and her bf. Still lots of people here at 11:00 pm. (Avoiding getting anyone in the picture) It’s beautiful, surreal but still mostly enraging. Abolish ICE.

We're not angry enough. These people deserve nothing less than being pulled apart by horses.

I can’t remember being angrier.

There's honestly been some pretty good news coverage tonight on TV regarding today's events. It's not a coincidence. Like half a dozen prominent Democrats finally came out this afternoon and said ICE is terrorist trash led by a secretary who should be impeached and it flipped the whole narrative.

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.

ICE is responsible for the *only* shooting and homicide in Minneapolis so far in 2026.

abolish ice is the moderate position to be honest. whichever candidate promises to nuremberg the ice agents has my vote at this point

Impeach. Convict. Remove. Prosecute. Imprison. Pretty simple. This isn't just an ethics question anymore, it's the moral bare-minimum for life here. The Trump regime will fall and soon. All of them must be held accountable.
