As a reminder, here are texts Charles Exum wrote bragging abt shooting Marimar Martinez in Chicago on 10/4. Exum yelled "Do something bitch" as he shot, first through windshield, then side window. ALSO a Greg Bovino deployment. ALSO a weapons instructor. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Beyond all their other social functions, universities are economic engines. Colleges bring in thousands of foreign students, generate patents, and employ thousands. Attack us and you attack the foundation of the American economy.

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...

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

I've been testing Grok vs. ChatGPT and how they compare when generating deepfakes. - ask the chatbot to search the web for photos of me and then regenerate me in a bikini: Grok complies; ChatGPT refuses - upload a photo of myself (not id'ing as a public figure): Grok complies; ChatGPT refuses

Yesterday I documented how DHS lies all the time and suggested you not trust their claims, in case you did.

It’s hard to know if people outside MN understand how much of life is grinding to a halt here because of Trump’s occupation. Schools have shut down, businesses are scaling back hours or closing because their employees aren’t safe. The whole city is weighted down.

The most successful Indigenous rebellion against colonization in the history of what became the US happened in New Mexico long before the American Revolution Po’pay led the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, as described in fascinating detail by @theconversation.com:

Anti-ICE protesters are having a rolling noise demo and protest in downtown Minneapolis targeting hotels where federal agents are reportedly staying -- starting at the Canopy by Hilton and going to the Renaissance Minneapolis Hotel. Police have just arrived as we are posting this.

“When I speak about making our city more affordable, my vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the child care that we’re making universal — it’s also a vision where we make it possible for working people to afford lives of joy, of art, of rest, of expression.”

rare to see an american politician speak in these terms and it rocks

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

For what it's worth... In 1916, the United States and Denmark signed a treaty in which the U.S. formally recognized Denmark’s sovereignty over all of Greenland in exchange for Denmark's relinquishment of the U.S. Virgin Islands. history.state.gov/historicaldo...

that’s why they say “all cops” and not “some cops”

there is something about watching them clearly envisioning themselves to be an elite fighting force, yet barely able to keep up with townspeople in snow pants who are outnumbered the dangers to citizens are obviously real but aren't more ppl going to watch these videos and think "I could take them"

How many women have died with “fucking bitch” ringing in their ears? Don’t let the misogyny get erased here

He shot her in the head, then called her a “fucking bitch.” That isn’t self defense, it’s an angry execution.

These videos now making their way out of Tehran are absolutely unbelievable and truly, some of the most important moments history. This is a still of one of thousands of events taking place right now across Tehran, where women are taking their veils off and burning them in mass in public.

This is horrific and barely being reported on in the UK media. Shame on the British government. www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/202...

We're at the scene of a protest in downtown Minneapolis outside the Canopy by Hilton hotel, where ICE agents are believed to be staying. Photographer Alex Kormann estimates at least 1,000 people are in attendance.

African officials express concern that the nuclear armed, ethnically volatile former British colony is sleepwalking towards a human rights disaster. #NewsIfUSAWasAForeignCountry

the best antidote to blackpilling is remembering that every video you see of an ICE thug abusing their power was recorded by an American who volunteered to put themselves in harm's way for the sake of people they've likely never met and never will

Note from a veteran police reporter: NAMING law officers who use lethal force under any and every circumstance IS NOT doxxing. It is journalism. Officers who invoke lethal force are ID'd publicly as a standard -- or were when we were a republic. Asdress, no. Name, rank, posting, etc. -- yes.

Emily is such a wonderful scholar! Buy her book!

NEWS --> Reps Eric Swalwell and Dan Goldman are introducing a new bill to strip ICE officers of qualified immunity, making lawsuits and prosecutions easier. They also say agent who killed Renee Good should be prosecuted in Minnesota. They break this news on our pod: newrepublic.com/article/2051...

Excellent

Renee Macklin Good's wife, Becca Good, released a statement and it moved me to sobbing tears: archive.is/ur35j

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

China's fentanyl crackdown led to a stunning drop in U.S. overdoses, research says

So hey, while Frey is doing soundbytes and spouting off, Sheriff Dawanna Witt and Frey's Police Chief Brian O'Hara's people were at HCMC last night protecting ICE agents, refusing to trespass them from the ER waiting room there despite requests from the hospital, and elected officials.

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

"...the more one relies on vice signaling as a style of action and communication, the less relevant and powerful the in-group’s moral compass is as a practical constraint on anyone’s behavior." latest for @bostonreview.bsky.social www.bostonreview.net/articles/emp...

NEW: A growing body of research shows that trauma caused by ICE and Trump's immigration policies can potentially cause long-term harm in the bodies and brains of Asian youth. This story is the first part of an investigative series produced by @mindsitenews.bsky.social and co-published by The Xylom.

While it may seem from the outside that state investigators could proceed on their own, legal experts say being shut out of the federal investigation creates nearly insurmountable obstacles to winning a conviction on state charges:

We love to see universities caving to right wing hysteria both literally and figuratively paying the price for it

I am absolutely furious at this. We’re working overtime to flush our legacy down the toilet. Dr Acosta “did everything right” and worked like hell to build an incredible career after growing up low-income in El Paso. Now we won’t accept his donation.

It's time to revive my daily good news practice. Today's good news comes from Tennessee, where Austin Peay State University has been forced to rehire a professor they fired for expressing an opinion about Charlie Kirk. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/07/u...

3. After months of pressure, Avelo Airlines has ended their contract with ICE. This is the result of TONS of organizing from partners and Indivisible groups who have used their consumer power to force Avelo into noncompliance with the regime.

"How does it feel to be a worker in an oil-and-gas industry and a Canadian petrostate amid the climate crisis and the early stages of a transition away from fossil fuels?" - Melanie Dennis Unrau niche-canada.org/2024/11/27/n... #envhist #envhum #fossilfuels #labour #poetry

Because of people bravely choosing to share their experiences, we are able to shed light on what people in Eloy Detention Center have endured over the past year in our report, “Medical Neglect, Strip Searches, and Abuse: Deadly and Dehumanizing Conditions in the Eloy Detention Center.”

Rest in power to Keith Porter who was murdered by an ICE agent in Los Angeles. It’s terrible that his name is just now being circulated, but now that it is, continue to say his name.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.
