under questioning by Rand Paul, ICE officials confirm that yelling at officers is not assault and recording officers is not a crime

One year later, justice. #ICE #GOP

Activists at Stonewall put a Pride flag (back up!) at the park, after a Trump admin decision to remove it. They tied it to the American flag.

Prediction markets are exploding in popularity. Kalshi alone saw over $1 billion in trading volume on Super Bowl Sunday. Remarkably, more than $100 million was wagered on what song Bad Bunny would play first during his halftime show. That kind of market has raised concerns about insider trading.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

The potential foreign agent was Saudi foreign agent Jared Kushner. I mean, I was betting on Roger Stone but this is actually far more problematic.

More #Epstein party people. #GOP

#patriarchy Fuentes style.

Absolute clown car. Kids playing with real life weapons. #CBP #ICE #DoD #DHS

“If we’re going to say it’s OK to kill so-called terrorists in the Caribbean, for actions that have traditionally been dealt with as a criminal matter... what’s to say you can’t do the same in an American city?” @scanlon.house.gov told @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2026/02/02/t...

This is amazing. Good news in the thick of the shit tsunami coming out of the #WhiteHouse.

#Resistance to #ICE grows.

When the CIA did this to the Senate it was one of the biggest intel scandals of the 21st century. But here it’s not just a huge scandal, it’s dumb: Pam Bondi is so bad at her job she brought the evidence herself to an open congressional hearing. www.theguardian.com/world/2014/j...

How quickly some have forgotten: No Irish No Blacks No Dogs. We say: No Trump, No ICE, No White House Shamrock. #trump #eu #ICE #ForTheLoveOfDublin

Israel used illegal, US-made bombs to "evaporate" almost 3,000 Palestinians. www.aljazeera.com/features/202...

“When a government is dealing with scrapping due process for millions, detaining them, physically breaking them down, and removing them from society, it often comes down to a question of logistics. And by the time logistics are the focus of the questions being asked, a country is in a bad place.”

What Trump's DHS officials won't say: No immigrant has ever killed an ICE agent. CBP agents commit more crimes per capita than undocumented people. You can't "dox" public servants. Body cameras don't reduce misconduct.

i think this more than anything is what miller wants. vast detention camps with all of the suffering and death that means.

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?” There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

“When we say (the attacks on) immigrants are the battering ram, we mean this is how the regime smashes through the last restraints. Immigrants are the first people they come for because they think they can get away with it…And once that wall is down, they drive straight through the rest of society.”

“Less than 14% of nearly 400,000 immigrants arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement #ICE in President Trump's first year back in the White House had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses, according to an internal Department of Homeland Security document obtained by CBS News”

SCOOP: Tensions at Palantir have grown in recent weeks over the company's work with ICE. On Friday, CEO Alex Karp tried to calm concerns in an hourlong video that offered few specifics—instead offering NDAs to workers who want to understand how it's empowering ICE. www.wired.com/story/palant...

More and more we see examples of how #artists and #culturalworkers are using tactics that bring us together to resist this #war on #Americans. We’re also good at visioning. It’s probably why they don’t want to fund the #arts and #arteducation.

Vladyslav Heraskevych, who wore a helmet with photos of Ukrainian athletes killed by Russia’s war, says the IOC has banned him from using it during official training sessions and competitions. Please listen to his words! “The world must know the price of freedom.”

#Epstein and I’ll keep #GOP until the rest of them speak up.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

This is sick

It bears repeating that Tom Homan is a fucking psycho and Greg Bovino's exile means functionally nothing when it comes to what's happening on the ground in Minnesota.

It is perhaps a good time to check if your university, city, retirement account, etc hold CoreCivic stock, and if they do, make your feelings about that known

In case you missed the moment. Art is powerful

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Amber Glenn, a queer Texan who started ice skating at the stonebriar mall in frisco at age 5, who plays magic the gathering, is an olympic gold medalist

Europe gets it! The UK raids the home of a close Epstein pal. Poland probes ties to Russian intel. France raids the office of Musk's X. But the U.S. elites who palled around with the world's worst sex creep get away with it The crisis of elite impunity. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/jeff...

Why did the American audience apparently hear different audio of JD Vance's appearance at the Olympics than the audio heard by the rest of the world? NBC denies muting. But it's part of overall disturbing developments in the US corporate media world.

So my Governor was singled out and disinvited by Trump to the National Governors Association Bipartisan dinner at the White House. Trump’s racism is a mega phone. Moore is the Vice Chair of the NGA & the only Black Governor in the US. In solidarity w/him, all governors/esp Ds must refuse to attend!

Great @zeblarson.bsky.social piece - much more from me coming soon on big tech greenwashing When I have time I will properly put together my notes and work on the bluewashing / minimisation of water impacts being spun by effective altruists on data centres too - wild how much cut-through it has had

Having my #K12 #education students read this as part of an arts-based curriculum planning project. Embodiment, nature, connection, meaning. @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social

🚨BREAKING: Someone just projected this video onto a Las Vegas building ahead of the Super Bowl, dubbing it the "Pedo Bowl" and highlighting the men who dominate the Epstein files. Spoiler alert: Donald Trump, Howard Lutnick, and Steve Bannon are the MVP lineup nobody asked for.

Martin, an 18-year-old citizen and soccer player, traveled with his Madison-area team to Minneapolis for a Futsal tournament (which my kid's team was going to play in, then opted out). While there, ICE stopped Martin and took his mom, who has been detained since. www.jsonline.com/story/news/l...

Even people who never pay attention to politics are waking up. Here's why that's a huge accomplishment.

This is amazing but missing alt text, so I'll do a thread with detailed alt text for each of the three pictures.

NYT confirming MS NOW reporting: Prosecutors began investigating Renee Good's killing, then Washington told them to stop. Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.

Rubio/State Dept. and #Musk, the richest man in the world, took away support for millions globally. If not reversed, this could lead to the deaths of millions of children. Instead of spending money to keep children alive in Africa, #MarcoRubio will instead spend it to boost #NigelFarage in the UK.

Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved. DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.
