Every picture of Bovino looks like an outtake from the scene in the Dark Knight where Heath Ledger's Joker isn't wearing makeup.

Acting Field Director David Easterwood.

Important perspective from Greenland.

Being here every day and watching American posters yell at senators for not invoking the 25th Amendment, or members of the House for not delivering the president to the Hague, or the media for not impeaching Trump really doesn't give me a lot of confidence in any potential post-Trump administration.

it's just interesting that Zohran Mamdani can go "hey look at me, I'm the mayor of New York City" and everyone likes it. but when I do it I'm just asked to stand on the other side of the sneeze guard at Subway. I'll let you guess why there's a discrepancy

I’m probably about to be banned from CNN — but someone has to say this about Scott Jennings. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...

Precisely.

I think the White House badly underestimates the strength of the pan-European folk memory of 1930s appeasement, and how deep it still cuts. I suppose this is what happens when you learn in school that WW2 started in 1941 in Hawaii.

Angie Craig is now arguing for the brilliant reform of ... making ICE wear body cameras. Angie, Jonathan Ross filmed himself killing a woman on his own phone and released it to the press.

BREAKING: Condition of ICE agent that murdered unarmed civilian has been reassessed and his wound has been upgraded from "ouchie" to "boo-boo", though surgeons report that his tactical pants suffered considerable internal damage and they were unable to save them.

New: We built an interactive map of every ICE contractor working with the Trump administration. readsludge.com/2026/01/16/t...

To the "civility" people, saying the word "fuck" is violence, but the cops shooting tear gas is "peace keeping", ripping a parent from their children is "doing their job". They want to control the definition of violence and their monopoly on the use of it.

ICE must be abolished. It has become a lawless, rogue agency. Federal law enforcement agencies must follow the law, if they're going to have any credibility enforcing it. We are demanding justice for Renee Good and the prosecution of ICE agent Jonathan Ross for her murder.

There are people on here claiming that Trump doesn't have the power to cancel elections because elections are held at the state level, and I think that's probably true. However, I've yet to find one such poster who will explain how states can force a GOP congress to seat new Democratic members.

One thing about the US mainstream media finally covering ICE shooting people in the streets is that we might be done with the interminable articles where some tourist trap owner in the USA tries to come up with reasons the tourists aren't flooding in from other countries.

Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

It's like a Bizarro World version of Norman Rockwell's painting of six-year-old Ruby Bridges getting escorted past racists by federal marshals.

it is 2016. the cops have murdered someone in minneapolis. the dem faithfuls say they just need more training. it is 2020. the cops have murdered someone in minneapolis. the dem faithfuls say they just need more training. it is 2026. the cops have murdered someone in minneapolis. the dem faithf

They're using Grok to deepfake Renee Good's body into a bikini.

Who knew that a decapitation strike on an authoritarian government might lead to violence and chaos? Other than anyone who's read anything from any era of history, that is? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I posted these to insta yesterday because I really don’t know what else to do. A portion of these sticker sales will go to the ACLU. Keep each other safe.

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in south Minneapolis has been identified as Jonathan Ross, the Star-Tribune reports

For those wondering what Mamdani's quote, "For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty," was in reference to...

There’s a real echo effect between the Dems trying to make everything about “kitchen table” issues and the people on here claiming everything is a distraction from the Epstein files. Dead Venezuelans aren’t a distraction. People shot and killed by ICE aren’t distractions. Give your head a shake.

Frey: So, they are already trying to spin this as an action of self-defense. Having seen the video of myself, I want to tell everybody directly: That is bullshit.

There is video of the shooting of a woman by ICE in Minneapolis circulating that shows an ICE agent repeatedly shooting her at point blank range while she tries to drive off. There was no obvious threat to any ICE agent.

masked, unidentified goons who assault and murder with impunity. a literal gestapo.

If we learned that the Obama or Biden DOJ was casually monitoring the comings and goings of a reporter for any reason, much less b/c she was the lead reporter on all things Epstein, it would be a Watergate-level scandal but of course since it's Trump, one day (at best) and we move right along 🙃

Trump's DOJ was monitoring all the movements of the Miami Herald reporter who was covering the Epstein case.

Black father kills a man who tried to rape his daughter & media posts his solo mug shot. White father murders his wife, shoots step child, kills himself, & media posts his smiling picture with family. Make no mistake, this is how media normalizes white supremacy & extremism. We must reject it.

As people comb the Epstein files for some crime they can get Trump on I’m thinking about how he was found with boxes of stolen top secret files in his possession and somehow that ended up being impossible to prosecute.

I wonder if there were people im the Weimar Republic who lectured people about being "doomers" while insisting that the law simply did not allow Hitler and the Nazis to do any of the things they planned to do. I bet there were people like that, but weirdly, nobody talks about them anymore.

"Get the principals on camera" is such a telling phrase here, because it tells us that for Weiss there's no world in which the victims of these horrific actions can actually be seen as the subjects of the story: They're background noise, and the people who matter are the ones sending them.

David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov. He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker. This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

This is bullshit. Just after I got a new pack of Pedomon yesterday, they officially release a holo Dersh.

I tossed off a post yesterday where I used Bitcoin as slang for crypto, so I deleted and will now be more specific: Crypto is for crime *and* speculation, and the biggest use of generative AI is porn, and the fact the current government and economy is all in on this strikes me as problematic.

Ten years ago.
