"Under the 'Compromise Scenario', Denmark would agree to give Trump full military access to Greenland and deny access to Russia and China." This is the status quo. We've had it since before Trump was born. It's the most open-ended "put whatever you want here" deal we have for any foreign territory.

Wow at this 2019 @radleybalko.bsky.social piece. The NYPD tried to use the "vehicle was a deadly weapon" excuse for excessive force The video showed the officer was never in danger. Not only was the victim ruled innocent--the officer got convicted of perjury www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/201...

Remember too: Illegally crossing the US border is a misdemeanor. All this for fucking misdemeanors.

"why don't those cops arrest the other cops" answers its own question.

I can't believe local government is cowering while local normies are trying to protect their community. Just letting guys with guns threaten people like this

I've been watching this happen on the left and right for some time, and it always leaves a trail of harm impacting innocent people. Just stop.

Paying oil companies to extract VZ oil with taxpayer dollars because the oil isn't currently marketable at a profit is an interesting use of funds.

WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to: * 8 people shot * 5 of which were U.S. citizens * 2 died * no victims drew a weapon The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire www.wsj.com/us-news/vide...

"I don't want to be in the Pentagon all day I want to be with Da Boyz"

The Ta-Nahisi Coates line about if you can’t stand up to genocide you can‘t stand up for democracy. It’s the epigraph of our new age.

A group of young kestrels is startled by the presence of a butterfly. 🤣🤣🤣

I am shocked. SHOCKED.

She is aggressively trying to turn the wheel AWAY from the ICE agent. It is her very last action. They provoke her, surround her, then kill her in cold blood. I have barely slept since this happened and I don't think I'll ever stop being angry about this.

And Renee Good’s last words appear to be “We’re not mad at you.”

gonna have to wait a few more days to find out if the supreme court is more beholden to its fascist overlords or its corporate sponsors

a government agent, who murdered a civilian for peacefully protesting, flying a dont-tread-on-me flag is such a perfect distillation of the maga ethos it almost feels fake

Trump is not going to leave office. He is terrified of going to jail like Epstein and he is addicted to his grift and the power of being US president. He is militarizing the country and building a bunker in the WH for that reason. He is pulling funding from everything but funding the military.

7 Democrats just voted today to confirm a Trump judicial nominee who refused to say what happened on January 6 or answer who won the 2020 election: Durbin Hassan Kaine King Klobuchar Shaheen Welch

A reminder that the Uvalde response was led by Border Patrol, which waited 77 minutes to confront an armed gunman in a school. But shooting unarmed civilians in split seconds, no problem for them at all www.nytimes.com/2026/01/08/u...

I should also note that 7 Republicans (Cramer, Daines, Moran, Scott (FL), Scott (SC), Tuberville and Wicker) were absent for the vote. Had these Democrats not gone along with the GOP, Van Hook would have not been confirmed.

portland city council confirms that two portland residents have been shot by federal agents. at this time, the city council has been told that both victims are alive.

They're living their fascist dreams; murder for fun and profit. Democratic leadership needs NEEDS to understand they'll be chuckling that much harder about gunning them down as soon as Trump green lights his next Jan6th.

Democrats will continue to vote for Republican judges (like this guy, who refused to say who won the 2020 election) until Democrats are punished for voting for Republican judges

This is a good sign bsky.app/profile/ms.n...

interesting! here's a video i took yesterday of federal agents ramming community members with their car

ICE agent who killed woman identified as Jonathan Ross. Was reportedly involved in incident last June when immigration suspect tried to flee in vehicle; Ross broke rear window and reached inside to open door; suspect drove to shake him off car while Ross held on and fired Taser. Ross was injured

JD Vance asking the hard questions about the shooting victim who was killed in her car "how did she get there? "

there's video. multiple videos. what else do they need at this stage

If Minnesota doesn't at least try to charge the murderer in the ICE uniform, they should just return the Battle Flag of the Virginia 28th. There's a fight for freedom from tyranny or there's surrender.

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-...

Must-read - I've long thought the effects of social media on the mass public are likely overrated but their effects on elites are underrated

ICE’s Use of Force policy states officers may not: 1) Fire solely to stop a fleeing vehicle 2) Fire at a vehicle just because it is being used to flee arrest 3) Fire to disable a vehicle (e.g., tires, engine) 4) Fire if safe alternatives exist (stepping aside, cover) www.dhs.gov/sites/defaul...

So is Bari Weiss planning a town hall with Renee Good's widow?

No one can pretend this isn’t incredibly bleak, but we can take comfort in the fact that we have each other, we outnumber them, and we’re better than they are

Whatever you are feeling right now, let the fact that federal goons murdering their neighbor in broad daylight has not only *not* deterred good Americans from speaking out, it’s actually CAUSED hundreds of them to show up, knowing the danger, to protect their community

Not super fun to think about the degree to which literal brain damage is setting the American agenda at the moment

I don't care if your my mother or my wife. I'm putting my t-shirt in the air fryer

they're all friends playing a little game while we get shot in the streets

Just remembered this Hall of Shame tweet

it is the policy of this government to treat democratic-led states as conquered territories and the people therein as something like hostiles or even enemy combatants
