nobody posted the clip anywhere so i went and dug the whole episode up

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

So the LAPD Police Chief Jim McDonnell said he wasn't going to enforce the law in California that requires #ICE to unmask. Here's some of the response. What do you think about what's being said by Angelinos like Catie Laffoon ⚠️ Warning ⚠️ Strong language

The forces that make Trump impervious to internal correction within the GOP are going to create huge obstacles to the party winning elections and governing for a generation.

Good. Hiding the names of people asking for 10 year old girls is fucking disgusting.

I lost it at Bureau of Land Management and couldn't stop laughing for a long time.

I know we’ve gotten used to it, but this type of behavior is disgusting and people should speak up about it

We need to listen carefully and listen closely. Trump is telegraphing his playbook to steal the 2026 elections. Here’s how he will do it. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

This is the key story of Minneapolis- mass organizing of a significant percentage of the population. Rallies are great but building trained networks of activists with real skills to challenge autocracy is the key to defeating the far right over the long term.

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I approve this message.

Another witness to Anderson Cooper: “Now is not the time to stay silent. We all need to be a little bit brave, and do what we can to stand up for our rights.”

Had Melania Trump kept it real and based her film on her career as a sex worker that led her to being one of Jeffrey Epstein’s girls, and ultimately the wife of a paedophile and corrupt president there wouldn’t be any empty seats in the theaters.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him. “When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Can't believe I have to say this but climate change is responsible for extreme cold snaps.

FACT: California sends $83 billion more to the federal government than we get back. Trump can talk down on California all he wants, but California pays his bills.

Colorado's Court of Appeals suggested last week that Tina Peters was incorrectly sentenced for a felony rather than a misdemeanor, adding 15 months to her sentence. A closer look reveals that misdemeanor charge didn't exist at the time of her crime. @marshallglasses.bsky.social reports:

Not a metaphor.

Primary them out of power so hard their own children forget their names

Republicans view releasing the Epstein files as a nuisance-rather than a vindication for thousands of victims by exposing perhaps the most extensive sex trafficking operation ever uncovered-because they’re afraid it might implicate Trump and their friends-therefore diminish the GOP’s power

It's hard to sum up the Trump Doctrine of International Affairs, but "But I want an Oompa-Loompa now!" goes a long way

Trump has destroyed our economy, unleashed an untrained homicidal secret police force on our streets, and is now randomly invading other countries. But the wine moms on BlueSky won’t shut up about Heather Cox Richardson. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Time to put grandpa in a home I’m sorry GOP

Donald J. Trump reportedly sent a letter to Jonas Gahr Støre expressing anger over the Nobel Committee not awarding him the Nobel Peace Prize, framing it as justification for seeking to acquire Greenland from Denmark. According to PBS News, staff at the National Security Council

I don’t know if the club had a cover, but the drinks sure did.

Kat Abughazaleh speaking at protest outside ICE facility in Broadview IL today. This is the kind of representation we need in Congress! Vote for Kat!

When Democrats folded in the last government shutdown—rescuing the GOP majority from itself and helping them pass a budget, giving validation to the Trump administration’s lawbreaking—the savvy politics knowers explained that folding was clearly worth it because it got the Epstein Files released.

We must unconstitutionally impose more taxes on Americans because the threat of illegal aggression against a heretofore American ally hasn't worked out as smoothly as we imagined.

Thank you, Bob Weir. For so, so much. For making this world a better place, for being a constant in my life and for making music fill the air. Fare thee well. Rest easy.

ken did a really great thread here that nicely articulates why i block doomers. the only thing i’ll add is this: doomerism is a form of voter suppression. saying shit like “there won’t be elections” is saying there’s no point in fighting. it’s demotivating. fuck that.

This might sound a little wild to some people, but I actually don't think it's a good thing that the senile, dementia-ravaged president of the United States believes in so many ridiculous lies that his basic grasp of reality is questionable.

Someone is jealous that Cybertruck owners are getting all that asshole cred that used to belong to Hummer owners.

How does an LED light change when dipped in liquid nitrogen? 💡🧪 Museum Educator Adelaide plunges an LED into liquid nitrogen and watches its color shift from orange to yellow to green.

Incredible that the Trump administration put out this new video of the killing of Renee Good as if it is EXCULPATORY for the ICE officer.

The 2026 election has already begun. In the words of Amanda Gorman in her poem for Renee Good, “If for us she arose, Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief, Crouches our power, The howl where we begin, Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater Of the worst of what we’ve been”.

No notes

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

Fuck Bari Weiss, fuck bootlicking regime propaganda

I want to find the consultant who convinced Dems to stick with this framing, tie them to a stake, light a match, and tell everyone they have to decide between caring about saving them or caring about milk being 2% cheaper

Our first ad of 2026! Because politics stuck in 2006 won't meet the moment. It's time to stand up to ICE, white supremacists, and the billionaire oligarchy.

COMMENTARY: It seems an increasing number of Americans, including elected leaders and journalists, are afraid to tell the truth about what happened on January 6. That's dangerous.

most americans dont know that republicans invented and are monthly subscribers to a kiddie porn generator you know how theyd learn? by democrats leaving the site and turning it into a national story

Why won’t Speaker Johnson display this plaque thanking law enforcement for their heroic efforts to protect our Democracy on January 6?
