A federal judge has blocked deportation, for now, of 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos, the PRE-SCHOOLER with the red Spider-Man backpack and blue hat with floppy bunny ears who ICE agents nabbed on the street and used as bait to nab his dad in Minneapolis. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-ki...

Hey! Here's where somewhere all of you could be useful! (I know!) I once heard low straight jackets play The Munsters theme, and at one point they actually lampshaded the hidden existence of the mysterioso pizzicato, upon which the theme is based. I had never noticed! >

We need an ad campaign featuring old klansman on trial in the 90’s with some sort of tag line about how they should be waiting for prosecution for the rest of their lives.

there are many things to demand now and demand in the future and they all matter. but that's the one I want to make sure of. these people named and held accountable. and I want them to be afraid of it right now, so maybe the next one doesn't pull a trigger.

every agent on the screen knows who the other ones are. Someday, we'll offer partial amnesty to the first non-shooter who reveals the identities of the others. that day will come.

Maddow: "If you were one of millions of Americans who protested ICE out of Minneapolis, you should know, tonight you are winning this thing."

Hell yeah, another reminder that longshoremen are based as hell. After George Floyd was killed by the police in 2020 the ILWU shut down the entire west coast shipping industry for 8 hours on Juneteenth in solidarity with the BLM movement.

yes yes yes, HEAT ON MILLER ALL THE HEAT ON MILLER

Heads up everyone, it’s not just Minnesota. These fuckers are still doing their fascist bullshit across the nation.

This is dystopian… and not just because they’re dressed like a scene from the handmaids tale. These are mostly children. This is where Liam Ramos is being held. They’re screaming “let us out” and protesting the brutal conditions. These kids are braver than every ICE thug holding them hostages

Imagine a paramilitary gang kills 2 observers over 2 weeks, then shows up at your home to say, "You, observer, we know where you live." That's a death threat. If it happened to me or a colleague when I was a human rights observer in N. Ireland, we would've lodged complaints with three govts.

"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've been sent video from the end of the ICE raid at the Zipps on 32nd and Shea. It shows protesters -- on the sidewalk, impeding no one -- getting drive-by maced by an ICE agent from a truck as it rolls away down the road. Hard to see how such tactics are justifiable.

the murders have occupied all the attention but the indiscriminate assaults justified by no conceivable law enforcement purpose are another thing

something i'm kind of stressed about is that every time someone at dhs was ousted during trump 1, no matter what odious shit they were connected with, they had been ousted for being insufficient hardline

I truly hate that this idea actually makes sense, and I'm not kidding one bit.

🙄 And all because of 1, just 1 debunked paper. A million deaths is not enough for Andrew Wakefield.

Considering there are over a thousand accounts of sexual assault by ICE, women defending themselves from ICE "agents" by whatever means at their disposal falls squarely in the justification of "self defense".

Which is not unlike the game my wife used to play - looking up BBC journos and seeing where they went to university - until it got depressingly easy to predict.

Reminder that British journalists have a weird fetish for Harry Potter because it's a fantasy world where nobody mentions how fucking weird it is that everybody was privately educated in just five schools

Y'all if you do not take your wins and cling to them fiercely you are never gonna make it.

I note that “enshrined legal protections for wingnuts and cranks to behave as badly as they want, without negative consequences” is pretty compelling evidence that Britain has been deeply and maliciously Trumpified for quite some time.

Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)

UK PEOPLE: this is REALLY IMPORTANT. If the government bans under-16s from using VPNs, then logically they must intend to REQUIRE AGE VERIFICATION FOR ALL VPN USE. Which will affect adults too! *Your* right to anonymous web browsing is at risk! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/754408

this is so self evidently stupid i don't really know how to approach writing about it www.propublica.org/article/trum... how deliberately ignorant of everything would you have to be to think this was a good idea? this ignorant i s'pose

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Stop taking security advice from grifting "alt" accounts.

interesting to note both treatments for alzheimers are infusions that are delivered every 2-4 weeks via IV in the hand, and require both MRI and cognitive tests to monitor. Weird.

He smiled, tapped his head, and said "kidneys!"

The Philadelphia Inquirer is journalism at its best. And they are running a promotion right now - $1.00 for 6 months, or $1.00 for ad-free 3 months. That’s a deal!

​Why didn't people save my child and donate? Is it possible that the reason is my child's skin color because it's black? I don't want to believe that. Time is running out, and my child is losing his life. I love him so much; I don't want him to die. 😭 Donation link 👇🏻 www.muslimgiving.org/mohmed0 🙏🏻

I’m sure the NRA is going to put K$H on blast any second now. Any moment now…

People talking about Nuremberg trials for ICE should be reminded that Lt William Calley, who carried out the My Lai massacre in Viet Nam, served 3 days in prison before Nixon commuted his sentence to house arrest, where he spent 3 years at home. His defence was that he had been poorly trained.

Even when there’s no accountability, the record matters. Credit to the Wikipedia editors maintaining this page.

The sky over the station was the color of radio

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

There is an impeachment article right there. Article I: Lying About the Murder of a United States Citizen at the Hands of the State

Media: do not lead with the false government framing of what happened

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.

Has anyone in Canada's government responded to a US official calling for Alberta secession?

Can't believe I have to say this but climate change is responsible for extreme cold snaps.

Jesus Christ this is so far outside the norm. “government inquiries” mean they will share user data even without a subpoena.

"They all took off, leaving his car with the windows down, the lights on, unsecured and unoccupied," the sheriff explained. "They left it right on the side of the street. Folks, that's bush league policing." ICE is tainting all law enforcement, making their jobs MUCH harder for a long time

anyway, it's probably nothing, I'm sure he'll get over it soon
