BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

Corruption, plain and simple. Steve Witkoff, David Sacks, and Howard Lutnick must testify in front of Congress. And Congress needs to grow a spine and put a stop to Trump’s crypto corruption.

A note from our editors:

Musk has been spamming crap about SpaceX and Grok all day but now every single reply to any of his posts is someone calling him a pedophile. the stage has been set for something historic

Senators and staffers will swear to you up and down they can’t do hardcore obstruction or that they tried once and no one cared. In reality, they can, but it’s hard work and if they’re successful Republicans might change the rules on them to which I say, cool, make them do that.

WATCH - “You SHOULD sue!” @LindseyGrahamSC pathetically defends Trump’s attempt to steal $10 Billion from taxpayers. (Because he’s trying to do the same thing over the 1/6 investigation)

Technically Elon is right, because the article speculated about a trip to Epstein's island in December 2014 when the emails show he went in December 2013. You know, five years after Epstein pleaded guilty to charges of procuring a child for prostitution.

Elon Musk chatting it up with his friend Jeffrey Epstein five years after he was convicted for child sex crimes 👍

Uhhhh this file magically disappeared from the dump after being up for a while apparently

Or how about this headline — “American citizen arrested without cause after exercising his Constitutional rights.” Very important that government propaganda not become the default framing.

Europe stood up to Trump over Greenland—and he backed down. Appeasement emboldens bullies. Confrontation constrains them. There’s a lesson here for Europe and for America. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Dear Democrats: stop trying to compromise. It’s not working. Grow a spine, say fuck it, and take a stand. Don’t vote for ANYTHING. You need to bring this whole damn thing to a grinding halt.

These are all Black people. The regime is betting that you wont care Jamael & Trahern the way you care about Alex & Renée

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

The EU has the ability to go after Trump personally - his properties, his access to the EU, etc. His business is a massive Achilles' heel and I'm surprised they haven't said something about seizing his properties.

Mubashir and his family came to the United States as refugees from Ethiopia when he was a child, and they all became naturalized citizens in 2019. Despite being a U.S. citizen, Mubashir was targeted by ICE, assaulted, and detained. Listen to his story:

I wonder how long it will take the media to catch on to the fact that ICE’s recruiting spree has effectively deputized every white supremacist hate group out there.

Investigating elected officials for speech is not law enforcement but intimidation. If governors and mayors can be investigated for criticizing federal actions, neither elected officials nor anyone else is truly free to speak. #holdfast

Trump just placed a tariff on most of the EU of 10% that will increase to 25% in June unless they agree to sell him Greenland. This is mad king shit.

There is a reason he’s forced to cause all of this chaos. He has NO PLAN. He funds no programs, no healthcare, no education, no lower prices, money coming in only supports more chaos. He envies other dictators. I challenge ANYONE to tell me just one single thing he’s accomplished? Discussion open

That there’s not a massive, credible, instant, bipartisan impeachment/25th Amendment move over these senseless and destructive Greenland threats is a sign of how broken our politics are — and especially how broken the Republican Party is.

Trump is openly waging war on the entire constitution and these fucking losers are still whining about a slogan people chanted for six months 6 years ago.

These are the thugs Trump is giving absolute immunity to terrorize American cities. www.latimes.com/california/s...

ICE raids are not the first time this was made explicit. I think people downplay how much Jim Crow was not just about controlling Black people but it was also about controlling white people. If you thought racism was dumb and acted that way you could end up with a bomb in your home

Heard from a public school staffer. ICE agents follow school buses on their afternoon routes & target some parents picking up kids from bus stops. If ICE knew anything abt particular parents, they'd go to homes. Seems they're just leveraging kids' vulnerability & mixing with racial profiling.

ICE is the group of the professional agitators.

House Speaker Mike Johnson apparently doesn’t understand how our justice system works. He said if Fed Chair Jerome Powell is innocent, “then he can prove that.” No, Mikey, he doesn’t need to prove he’s innocent. His accusers need to prove he’s guilty.

You cannot reform this. Abolish ICE and defund every line item for the job and equipment of every agent from every agency who collaborates with them.

Local cops working for ICE? Fire them, remove their jobs from the budget, melt down their equipment, and give the money to public libraries. If you were working for ICE, I guess you weren't necessary and your job should be eliminated.

America is now at the heavily armed secret police doing warrantless door-to-door house raids in search of undesirable ethnicities and/or political dissenters stage. The difference from well known historical cases is down to scale.

Impeach Trump, Noem, Kennedy, Oz, the whole lot. And constantly push for it. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have the votes. Make the GOP keep voting for fascism again and again. Make them own it all.

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*

Game is kinda boring so I toggled over to check the news, which is how I found out the Fed chair is releasing proof of life videos because the insane president is trying to put him in prison for not doing what the insane president wants

This is literally what the 4th amendment was written to protect against. There are lots of things that are up for discussion and debate about how one interprets the 4th amendment. This isn't one of them.

Separate from the obvious misogyny of the last few days, it’s been striking to watch the right wing media apparatus really confront the role of normie middle-aged women as a leading and increasingly radical force of opposition to trump

BREAKING: ICE agents pepper-spray peaceful demonstrators and journalists and deploy chemical irritants in Minneapolis. Our partners @statuscoupnews.bsky.social captured the moment live on the ground as it happened.

This is a ethnic cleansing.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

once again we are all tapping the sign

rightwingers always call women “too emotional” but renee good states she’s not mad in a calm voice while the agitated emotional ICE agent unloads his gun umprompted and calls her a “fucking bitch” after she’s dead

Many of you have become drama-addicted doomers, and you seem to think it's important for the rest of us to join you. Yes, things are bad. But change is within our power. Grow up. Act like sober, responsible adults in a democracy instead of cynical, all-is-lost teenagers. Now get off my lawn. /5x

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.”

Frey: "This notion of inflammatory comments -- c'mon guys. I dropped an F bomb, they killed someone. Which one of those is more inflammatory? I'm going with the killing somebody."

unspeakably pathetic stuff from Trump here as he says he'd be honored to accept María Corina Machado's Nobel Prize if she wants to give it up to him
