"'Our operations are lawful, targeted and focused on individuals who pose a serious threat to this community,' Bovino said..." Again, Liam is **five**. Five years old.

There is going to come a time in your life when you are chatting with a guy, at a barbecue or something, a new coworker maybe, a dad at school drop off, and he tells you he used to be in ICE. You’re going to need to spit on that guy

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

pepper spraying someone in the face from inches away while they are already restrained on the ground should get you fired and land you in jail, no exceptions

Heartbreaking cruelty visited upon children in our name

The Unitary Executive Doctrine is a theory of American constitutional law holding that the President possesses the sole and absolute authority over the entire executive branch, unless it will nuke your 401(k)

And conversely, coverage of the election that first put Trump in office was utterly dominated by an issue of little substantive and absolutely no prurient interest nobody has even pretended to care about before or since

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

China has the largest installed wind capacity in the world.

Right on cue, here are the push alerts from the 3 major newspapers lmao

get er done, Europe

trump getting his feelings hurt by european leaders is the culmination of this new type of guy that emerged in the last decade or so: guy who goes out of his way to be a huge asshole who then gets really offended when the people he's being an asshole to don't like him

Literally everyone who even vaguely knew what a tariff was said this when they were introduced! You don’t need a team of economists to analyze the situation — no one who lives in reality was confused by this!

“You know, I’m a Marine Corps veteran.” “I don’t care what you are.”

They were not easily moved, They were icy-willing to wait Till every count should be proved, Ere the wine moms began to hate. Their voices were even and low, Their eyes were level and straight. There was neither sign nor show, When the wine moms began to hate.

I genuinely don't understood how America took the emoluments clause -- the common-sense bar on a president using his powers to line his own pockets, a law children can understand -- and just said, nah, that doesn't apply for our Very Special Boy.

The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

📺 OMG—who made this?! Noah Wyle has a message for all you—vaccine skeptics… Share with a friend who needs to hear it.

So she had a pulse. That’s what the doctor on the scene wanted to check. She wasn’t breathing, but she had a pulse. He could have started CPR right away. Instead ICE barred the doctor from attending her and waited 15 mins for EMT to get to her.

Because the media does not know how to frame what is happening, they keep referring to regular Minnesotans as protesters. But there is very explicit training that so many people done to learn how to be a constitutional observer. People are bearing witness to kidnappings, with phones and whistles.

“Can I go check a pulse?” a bystander said after Good was shot, his hands in the air. “No! Back up!” an ICE agent told him. “I’m a physician!” “I don’t care!” the agent replied, before another came up and said they had their own EMS on the way. trib.al/0QT1gBF

The 6-month-old that DHS is tweeting about here lived in the neighborhood and the baby’s father was just trying to evacuate his family after federal agents had shot someone.

in any case, i have been a vocal critic of trump for a decade. i want nothing more than to see trumpism purged from this country. my view is that this will only be accomplished by a deep and nuanced understanding of where trump is strong and where he is weak.

Lewiston, Maine: “One property manager whose tenants are almost exclusively African immigrants showed a reporter a form being passed around so undocumented parents could designate temporary guardians for their children in the event of their arrest.”

Another absolute banger in his obit

“Noem: U.S. Citizens Should Be Prepared To Show Proof.” Did you vote for a “Show Me Your Papers” society?

It’s like ICE stealing that kid’s phone and selling it. No responsibility, no law, just greedy violence. But on a massive scale. As though McKremlin consultants were explaining how to do it.

The January issue of the Journal of Chinese History is now online, with 12 articles & 25 book reviews covering most periods of Chinese history.

I made this video so we can talk about what ICE is actually doing in our cities. I have the details and you need to hear them. Please share this. ICE isn't targeting criminals or even people here illegally. They are just making up the law - every day. Here's what's going on.

I think we can call that a wrap on Giving A Shit About The Nobel Prize

The more info we get about this raid, the worse it becomes. ICE had NO valid warrant (administrative warrants do not authorize forceful entry into a home), the guy's sole prior conviction was a since-dismissed drug charge from 2008, AND he had checked in with ICE just days earlier.

ICE delenda est!

This dude is intense and correct

ICE keeps saying the people protesting it are being paid without any evidence, but we have receipts showing that the people *defending* ICE are absolutely being paid. And yet we only hear lies about the former on cable news.

His 6 month old stopped breathing! HIS SIX MONTH OLD STOPPED BREATHING! A father was getting his kids out of the neighborhood because it was unsafe & ICE threw flash bangs & tear gas at his car with children & a baby inside! His 6 month old stopped breathing & all the children were hospitalized!

Cripes a’mighty people, Steven Miller is not staging a militarized ethnic cleansing and sending the border cops to murder people in the street to distract from the Epstein files. He’s doing it because he and Trump (and Vance and Homan and Noem etc) really really want to.

ICE is coming to Portland and Lewiston imminently, their mayors confirmed today. Both cities have large Somali populations. When reached for comment, ICE wouldn’t even confirm whether or not this action was happening.

...... okay... everyone... um understand the red flag that is a man needing! to publicly spell out that he's got good (no GREAT!) sperm and that infertility is ALL the woman's fault? now, that man isn't just some guy at your work, he'd like to be a US Senator.... nope.

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open 'just to do quick research'

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

99% chance this is what they mean

🧵 The autoworker at the Dearborn Truck Plant is a proud member of a strong and fighting union—the UAW. He believes in freedom of speech, a principle we wholeheartedly embrace, and we stand with our membership in protecting their voice on the job.

So to be clear we have actually reached the point where NATO states are deploying tripwire forces to deter *another NATO state* from invading *another NATO state.* I struggle to communicate the strategic and just regular insanity of this moment.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just launched flash bang grenades at protesters in front of federal building in Minneapolis—causing massive explosions. "It's terrorizing, this isn't the America I served for 20 years in the U.S. Navy," tearful protester tells us. WE'RE LIVE NOW ⬇️

Almost uniquely among his many claims, when Trump said he was going to treat American cities like military training grounds... he was being 100% truthful.

Yes, immigration agents not only took Arnoldo's phone, the 10th grader had to use Find My Phone to locate it — in a vending machine for used electronics, close to an ICE detention center. Read the full story here: www.propublica.org/article/vide...
