Many Europeans want to be free of American and Chinese Big Tech apps. Open, decentralized protocols like ActivityPub (powering Mastodon) and AT Protocol (powering Bluesky) may be the key to a new sovereign social media infrastructure.

New post at CAMPAIGN TRAILS on the movement to unmask ICE and the lessons we can take from the earlier, successful movement to unmask the KKK.

Tim Walz just DESTROYED Kristi Noem: 'probably the most incompetent or cruel cabinet member ever.' He's not wrong. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/movement-t...

Republicans' Big Ugly Bill gave Trump $190 billion for DHS, including $75 billion for ICE and $65 billion for CBP. That's money Republicans stripped from rural hospitals and helping people afford health care. Congress should claw it back and put serious restraints on DHS.

He lives in a pink house.

Thanks for the plane!

SUPERBOWL WEEK OF ACTION Your presence is requested in the run up to the big game! There are so many opportunities to show up & show out, so get plugged in now. The San Jose community defense coalition is organizing a week of action to keep our neighbors safe & say once again: ICE OUT OF THE BAY

In this Minnesota special election last night, the Republican's vote share (4%) was just 33% of Trump's 2024 vote share (13%). That's the lowest ratio for R/(last Pres R) we have on record going back to 2017! 1/3

George F. Will! "Today, it is more than prudent, it is good citizenship to assume that everything ICE says, and everything the administration says in support of its deportation mania, is untrue until proved to be otherwise." www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

ICE deported a 5-year-old US citizen to Honduras, where she had never been, after holding her & her mother in a hotel room 80 miles from home for several days and not allowing them access to a lawyer www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

They’re all so incredibly useless.

Here is my follow-up Law Dork coverage on Kavanaugh stops: - 50 days: www.lawdork.com/p/the-kavana... - 100 days: www.lawdork.com/p/100-days-o... - Kavanuagh's footnote pullback: www.lawdork.com/i/182459464/... - Noem's effort to expand Kavanaugh stops: www.lawdork.com/p/noem-says-...

For my Law Dork coverage, here is my original report on the SCOTUS order allowing these stops:

In a document unsealed tonight, here is a declaration from last June from Carlos Alexander Osorto, one of the previously detained named plaintiffs in Vasquez Perdomo v. Noem, the case that resulted in the SCOTUS order allowing racial profiling of Latinos working low-wage jobs, aka Kavanaugh stops.

united24media.com/perspectives... Russia is the last successor state survivor of Ghengiz Khan's Mongol Empire. A EurAsian empire founded on the basis of unending conquest. Russia (Muscovy then) was an empire before a national identity formed. Even now Russian nationalism means imperialism.

Who bought it?

Just kinda seems like refusing to tell us which ICE agents murdered Alex Pretti undercuts the idea that they’re wearing masks to protect themselves — rather than to be able to kill people with impunity.

NEW: In a court hearing for a TRO against the feds in Minneapolis, the plaintiffs just said one of their exhibits contains a recording of a federal agent saying "Well, this person is gonna have a hard time traveling from now on" after taking a photo of an ICE observer's license plate. 1/

While glad to see Bovino humbled, I really don’t have any higher opinion of Homan—a cruel, cold, corrupt, calculating bureaucrat who’s devoted more of his career to mass deportation than almost anyone. He’s the architect of child separation.

Democratic members of Congress are demanding access to Ghislaine Maxwell after reports of her again recieving preferential treatment in prison. That alone tells you oversight has been missing for years.

"He was protesting," "She moved her car." Any excuse to follow their Fuhrer's orders.

I have been waiting for this signal from Senator Rand Paul. Senator Paul, Chairman of Senate Homeland Security Committee follows House committee. Sends letters to heads of ICE, CBP, USCIS to testify in public hearing.

They can’t actually deescalate because the whole administration is staffed with edgelord trolls.

Of course he does. Is this a joke? He defended the guy who killed Good. He’s told multiple people that he thinks protesters should be attacked. He told people at a rally to rough someone up. He’s said nothing as ICE has hurt people for months. He doesn’t get to walk away from this now.

idk what's up w/ the tiktok views but i imagine both transferring ownership and a data center outage (if indeed that happened) could definitely mess with view counts (fwiw the NFL's site also had videos w/ 0 views). About the only thing that's clear is that most everyone's suspicious of new owners

This essay is SO good. I can't recommend it enough. Fascinating.

The administration is "deeply frustrated"? To my mind, Noem/Bovino carried out what the White House wanted (see statements from Miller absolving ICE and smearing Good and Pretti), and now that its backfired, they are being used by Trump as scapegoats to absolve the WH of accountability. Dont forget.

Horrible. The fact that this is happening as Bezos and his bride are gallivanting at Paris Couture Week right now in outfits what could fund a reporter’s yearly salary makes this all the more infuriating.

Nearly a year after 67 people were killed in a midair collision in the skies above the nation’s capital, all but the most critical helicopter flights near Reagan National Airport have been banned. But the work to prevent a repeat is far from complete:

Democrats should tie their clean energy push to efforts to lower energy bills, Granholm added.

Think. About. Having. To do this as journalists. (And citizens)

So. To date, I have seen ONE Dem Rep in Congress call for ICE to be abolished. Ilhan Omar. Not defunded. Not trained and restrained. ABOLISHED. Are there any others? If so, post them and let's get a count on the number of Dems in Congress.

If Trump didn't like the Minneapolis coverage, I'm sure he's going to hate what comes with this abc7news.com/post/ice-sup...

🧵 The one constant policy of Trump's is his attack on the dollar. Everything he does is toward that end. Hard to say he's not shorting the country: -Pressuring for hyperinflation interest rates -Attacking foreign allies holding trillions in Treasuries -Canceling foreign aid that dollarizes

-Massively increasing spending but only on things that destabilize domestic and international order (ICE, defense, Domestic bullshit) -Passing tax reductions to benefit billionaires against public programs -Slashing scientific funding that is the centerpiece of US economic global dominance
