Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin. New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

Bride Wars is an excellent movie about generative conflict, the importance of friendship, and how setting boundaries will remove people who shouldn’t be in your life

Hate to ruin anyone’s day off by sharing this horrifying story but OP is right I was hearing about Rotherham for years, bc the perpetrators were minorities- this is a group of 6k adults abusing children

The Trump regime is disappearing people to indefinite detention in third countries they’ve never been to, often giving them no chance to contest their deportation and breaking U.S. and international law. Cruelty and inhumanity beyond belief. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

I wrote a book about US media’s complicity in the Gaza genocide. It's available for pre-order. It’s a data-driven and, I hope, thorough account of how center-left media sold the American public on mass death in Gaza. Out 4/21. 100% of royalties go to @mecaforpeace.bsky.social.

I refuse to repost it but that photo of her in the dog bed is hilarious

Moments ago: tenants of the South Shore apartment building that federal immigration agents raided at the end of September held a presser to announce they're forming a tenants union. They're demanding, among other things, sewage removal and heat and electricity restroration. More updates TK.

Sent out a birthday party invite 45 minutes ago and not one person has responded, does this mean I have no friends

The absolute fucking gall of the Houston police chief to 1, blame the mom and 2, assert that cops had justification to not believe the child was disabled thebarbedwire.com/2025/11/24/d...

The Starbucks union strike is being covered by network news like CBS and ABC That means even the least online among us know this is happening; there is no excuse to cross the picket line for an expensive cup of terrible coffee www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHNK...

Still feel guilty but also when a white person in the audience starts bragging that they make eye contact with immigrants every day, what do you do but leave

I signed up for a Hands Off training aware that it wouldn’t quite be my vibe but I left halfway through (a mere 2 hours in) bc it was unbearable Now feeling guilty as I’m not engaged in anti ICE work (or any organizing). Maybe I’ll print/share some SALUTE zines

I hope people are seeing the through lines between these fields of racist violence and abandoning the whole "immigrants are not criminals" thing www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

NEW: The FBI spied on a Signal group chat of NY immigrants' rights volunteers organizing court watch+ labeled activists “anarchist violent extremist actors.” Joint FBI/NYPD report shows law enforcement accessed private planning convo of ppl monitoring ICE Docs obtained by @propertyofthepeople.org

Do not get caught up in his charisma (mostly talking to myself) !! Any NYC mayor needs to feel our heat to reduce the NYPD's power hellgatenyc.com/mamdani-dodg...

Ok, after my initial shock at how much this man adores our next mayor, I guess it makes sense that he'd be into anyone who attracts a huge amount of press - he is ultimately a celebrity! Albeit a fascist one now suffering dementia hellgatenyc.com/trump-and-ma...

Today there was an attempted ICE raid in Bensonhurst & community members showed up. Even though NYPD collaborated with ICE by trying to disburse the crowd; community members stood their ground & ICE left without kidnapping a single person per the rapid response groups I'm on. We protect us!
