Really enjoyed my discussion with @mjsdc.bsky.social about war powers, international law, and how the Trump administration has repurposed the “terrorism” framing, starting around 26:30 here. Have a listen. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a...

Slightly diminish a band Imperial

let it rain on us forever

every once in a while i remember this door

All real estate ads should be this good

when it's definitely going the way you thought it would

I think it's a bad sign that every major news media outlet has spent days asking whether or not murder is bad and how much child porn is an okay amount

Watch out for the ONE question where they try to trick you by putting "I want AI" as the bottom option where EVERY other question has "I don't want AI" at the bottom!

Keith Porter's daughter talks about how her father was murdered by an off-duty ICE agent in Los Angeles

Hi Angie! This you?

A quarter of all North American birds have gone extinct in the last 50 years. A modern reader is totally unprepared for descriptions of *just how many birds* there were 150 years ago.

Marine mammal populations halved since 1970. The "normal" amount of wildlife of all kinds, from insects to whales, you see in the US is actually a post-apocalyptic wasteland. A gasp of what it once was.

Fun fact: you can read descriptions from the 18th and 19th century of what North American wildlife and marine life was like, before basically everything died off. Wildlife populations in the US have declined 70% since just 1970, and even that was a fraction of what they'd been in 1870.

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE: "No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested". "Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

In the lawsuit requiring ICE to provide access, the Trump admin made rumbles about raising this argument. Looks like they’re leaning in. I find it very difficult to believe that they have perfectly avoided commingling funds in the custody operations account.

Pleased to speak with @channel4news.bsky.social earlier this week about the US President's fixation on Greenland and its implications for the US-built international legal order. Have a watch. www.channel4.com/news/is-trum...

These thugs recognize the GOP's "Beautiful Bill" rendered ICE into a massive internal occupation force that, quite literally, assaults our nation's democratic institutions.

DOJ is still violating the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred. It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

From firing the local MAGA-allied police chief to calling for the abolishment of ICE, so much inaction by elected Democrats boils down to "but I'm scared!" I am very sorry, but you said you could do this job when you were hired. Please step aside if you can't.

JUST NOW: Huge mass of agents in a standoff, weapons drawn as Reps. Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig, and Kelly Morrison attempt to conduct congressional oversight at the Whipple Building, which has been HQ for thousands of ICE agents. @zeteo.com

So, here it is. Thanks to a new state law that was NEVER DEBATED, Indiana University has committed itself to abolishing majors in African-American/African Diaspora Studies: American Studies; Art History; French; Italian; Religious Studies etc. DOZENS of majors. www.ipm.org/news-section...

When non-genetic cis fathers can be named on their children’s birth certificates but not trans dads, that is blatant transphobic discrimination. It is transphobic discrimination for them, their partners & most importantly for their sons, daughters or non-binary children.

Oh look. Yesterday I wrote: "They're trying to provoke enough violence so they can declare martial law and cancel the elections altogether" and now he's taking the next step:

rare to see an american politician speak in these terms and it rocks

Week 1. We invaded Venezuela. We killed the ACA subsidies. We destroyed the Kennedy Center. We murdered a woman in cold blood over deportations. We threatened Greenland, now we are offering them $100,000 per person to allow us to take over their country. First 7 days. Can we survive a year of this?

On day 8 of our Administration, @governor.ny.gov and I announced the beginning of universal childcare in NYC. No longer will New Yorkers be forced to choose between starting a family and continuing to live in the city they love. This only happened because of you.

here’s this letter from an allied soldier describing what he saw at the buchenwald camp after it was liberated. notable especially is the editor’s note, referring to the normalcy bias still in play at the time — and how people still disbelieved the truth and horrors of the camps due to that bias.

This lady looks like she rolled a 1 on a dexterity check for putting on pants

Found your mom at the aquarium today

This morning, Ms. Rachel and I visited District 2 Pre-K Center, where we sang and read with the wonderful students and educators. We also discussed universal childcare - and how we're making it happen for NYC!

"Mom, can we get Dark Souls?" "We have Dark Souls at home" Dark Souls at home:

How's everyone's lemon pig doing?

Renee Macklin Good's wife, Becca Good, released a statement and it moved me to sobbing tears: archive.is/ur35j

Last night's mask-making workshop was a hoot! It was amazing to see people's creativity with just a handful of materials and techniques. The second workshop, on the 13th, has just one open spot left! neworleans.libnet.info/event/15161461

(Going to see a band I like) this is a cool room. I hope they start to constantly email me about every single event that goes on in here.

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

President of Peace objects to the Senate insisting that he seek authorization before going to war. And POTUS's current rationale for the military intervention in VZ is taking the oil, not self defense (there is no self defense argument. And no, the WPR is not unconstitutional.

New: we've obtained material explaining how an ICE surveillance system, called Webloc, works. Draw shape on a map, see all phones available there, follow them home. All without warrant “This is a very dangerous tool in the hands of an out-of-control agency.” www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

i know we're all busy but i just overheard a plumber say "parlez-vous français ? non ? you motherfuckers don't even speak french, do you" to a pair of french bulldogs

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”
