The penalty for being disrespectful is now on-the-spot execution

Will be interesting to see who suddenly cares about the president’s weaponization of the Justice Department now that it might threaten their bottom line $$$

JUST IN: A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore $12 million in grants to the American Academy of Pediatrics, saying the terminations appear to be retaliation for the group's view points re: vaccine safety/efficacy. ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

I don’t see how this country survives until 2029 unless Trump is impeached and removed. This level of lawless malice is not sustainable. What fresh horrors await us this week?

You needn’t be a lawyer to know you are correct. Drawing up plans is a conspiracy to carry out that illegal act and thus is illegal. Additionally: Trump cannot “pull out of NATO” to avoid this bar. Only Congress can repeal its own law.

Yes, Jeffries and Schumer may have been elected to represent their caucuses and see themselves as vote-counters. But sorry. That’s no longer the job. Their job is to be popular leaders. If they can‘t do that they should cede leadership.

The reason so many ICE agents are willing to break the law is that their leaders have created a permission and protection structure for doing so. ICE is killing & kidnapping citizens because the Republican Party has given them the green light. If you break the law the president will just pardon you!

I didn’t even think of this but what Minneapolis is doing right now is literally modern minute men. And it’s true to the name: if anything happens, responders are on their way in well under a minute.

In his closed door interview last year, Jack Smith told House committee: “The evidence here made clear that President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy..”

That this message didn't hit is kind wild when you look at the time stamp on it

Maybe we should have apps for this available via the Apple & Google App stores (Perhaps instead of CSAM generating X 🤨) #AppleComputer #Google

“IT WAS MURDER” Several hundred people have formed a human banner at San Francisco’s Ocean Beach today (Sat Jan 10, 2026) 👏👏 (📸 Erik Castro)

This needs to be said more often. They don’t “need more training.” They need to be shut down.

You won’t like Elon’s definition of “people.”

Dave Mathews took time on his birthday today to speak out on ICE and the murder of Renee Nicole Good 🔥….HBD Dave! "Renee Nicole Good, murdered in the streets. He shot her three times in the head. Murdered in cold blood. These people are trying to tell us not to believe what we see. F*ck ICE"

Bouie's great video on the same idea youtu.be/Msz2daPeTyg?...

Johnson: It is equally inappropriate for ICE agents to just throw teargas out of a window because people are yelling at them. It is unacceptable for ICE agents to go up and threaten to arrest and harm people because they are honking a horn or exercising a protest, that is unacceptable.

Rep. Angie Craig: "We were told because this facility is being funding by the 'Big Beautiful Bill,' not the congressional appropriations act, that we would not be allowed to enter the facility. That's complete nonsense ... I informed them they were violating the law. They said they didn't care."

Absolutely nuts. Seems way crazier than the MN fraud scandal, but has received comparatively little attention. Why has nobody gone to jail?

ICYMI: Watch @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org sat down with @rparloff.bsky.social, @ericcolumbus.bsky.social, and @michael-feinberg.bsky.social to discuss the shooting by an ICE agent in Minnesota, updates in the criminal case against Rep. LaMonica McIver, and more.

I am ready for this version of accelerationism.

Congress could all get together and say enough is enough, remove Trump, put in someone with some common sense and mental health. It could all end tomorrow. Hard to believe we keep suffering like this

GERMAN PRESIDENT STEINMEIER: “.. the United States has broken with the values that it helped to establish .. “.. we have now moved beyond the stage where we can lament the lack of respect for international law or the erosion of the international order; we are far beyond that, I believe.”

Note from a veteran police reporter: NAMING law officers who use lethal force under any and every circumstance IS NOT doxxing. It is journalism. Officers who invoke lethal force are ID'd publicly as a standard -- or were when we were a republic. Asdress, no. Name, rank, posting, etc. -- yes.

Holy cow: TRUMP LEAKED THIS MORNING'S PAYROLL NUMBERS. At 8:20pm last night he posted a photo of a briefing he received from his CEA. It reveals market-moving numbers that were officially released at 8:30am this morning. (Note: CEA receives the data—confidentially—on Thursday evening.)

Frey: "I think [Vance] also asserted that because you work at the federal government you somehow have absolutely immunity from committing crimes. That's not true in any law school in America, whether it's Yale or Villanova or anywhere else. That's not true."

New: Trio of Dem senators urge Apple and Google to enforce their own terms of service and ban X, Grok apps for their flood of nonconsensual sexual imagery. I've repeatedly asked both Apple and Google about this for three days. They're completely silent, seemingly hoping the question just goes away.

I’m sorry the decorum argument was dead ten fucking years ago when the entire republican party hitched themselves to mister “grab them by the pussy” come on

Amazeballs. But not surprising at all.

the best antidote to blackpilling is remembering that every video you see of an ICE thug abusing their power was recorded by an American who volunteered to put themselves in harm's way for the sake of people they've likely never met and never will

Such a helpful podcast from the great @lawfaremedia.org team — @annabower.bsky.social, @ericcolumbus.bsky.social, and @michael-feinberg.bsky.social — on the Minneapolis shooting and the legal issues surrounding state prosecutions of federal officers.

I'm sitting on a lot of my own anger today but I am going to say that Ross's anger, the way he called Good a "fucking bitch" - it's going to feel familiar to a lot of women who have crossed thin-skinned men who cannot tolerate being mocked or stood up to.

This, combined with him *moving to the front of the car* and then reaching for, if not actually unholstering, his weapon before Good even begins moving forward deminstrates that the intention to shoot was not reactive to a threat posed by the vehicle

I made a fresh account to report on Grok's horrors and can confirm. followed 1 account, ESPN, and the feed was 90% Libsoftiktok, Elon, Matt Walsh, and sundry right wing slopaganda

Former election chiefs warned the U.S. Supreme Court that ending mail ballot grace periods would create a confusing and chaotic election system that risks disenfranchising voters and undermining confidence just months before the 2026 midterms. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

*holding my cellphone up to someone’s face and shooting them in the head* Yeah people are gonna love this. I’m gonna be so exonerated.

The tragic death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year old mother fatally shot by ICE, shows that ICE can’t be reformed and must be abolished. I’ll be introducing the Abolish ICE Act as a step toward justice, accountability, and humanity in our immigration policy. Time to melt ICE.

Stopped speaking to one of my cousins, her husband & her middle daughter & her husband & kids. Evangelicals. Had hoped that they did not vote for him — youngest daughter told me the sad news. Love them but that was the bridge too far

For a literal decade the official CBP policy has been “don’t stand in front of or behind vehicles” because the decade before that their internally commissioned studies found that agents were putting themselves in front of vehicles so as to shoot the occupants

Here’s how to “make sense” of all this: The right is composed of evil people doing evil things who do not give a single fuck about this country, your state or your family. All they want is power and the power to crush anyone who isn’t a white man that believes in society oriented around white men.

Apropos of absolutely nothing to do with the masked men with no visible agency insignia carrying crates of who knows what out of the shooter's house, but HBO just released an amazing documentary into DHS "shadow units" whose job was to destroy evidence of Border Patrol's crimes

So not showing even subjective fear for his life then huh Murder = Jail

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.”

“Why does the mainstream Democratic response to authoritarian violence … have to be abstracted … What would it take for these freaks to voice objection to the actual … state terror happening … front of their faces, rather than raising limp procedural qualms about not having filed … paperwork? #NY19

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers. Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

No
