The 53 cars at the Hagerstown Maryland warehouse this morning, appearing a few hours after we left, are NOT the 100 on their way from Minneapolis. Detention center is more MASSIVE than you can imagine. All this “moving in” while there’s a law suit from MD & other actions to keep from opening.

THE DEATH OF US SCIENCE ☠️

This article should have made the basic point that other countries are governed by the rule of law. It’s not about “eagerness” to prosecute and it’s not a puzzle. It’s a marker of a deep US problem. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/01/w...

Over 300,000 workers went on strike in 2025 — a 13% increase from the previous year. Why? Perhaps it's because CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. Workers have every right to be fed up. Solidarity.

Preach!

Yeah hey also, THEY'RE NOT STOPPING WITH TRANS PEOPLE. That isn't how this works. Even if you, personally, dislike transgender people for some reason, please at least read Niemöller and develop a sense of self-preservation.

February 26 is an important date in the history of resistance, and it has to do with knitters during WWII. Come read the story. If you’re a knitter, maybe you’ll want to cast on with me tomorrow? And if you aren’t, there are other ideas for you here. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

A number of unusual deaths are associated with Deutsche Bank, including Val Broeksmit, who leaked secret files to the FBI related to the bank’s ties to money laundering, Trump, and Russia. Val was the stepson of William Broeksmit, a Deutsche Bank executive found hanged in his home years earlier.

If you were wondering whether MN's most senior GOP lawmaker would betray his own constituents to curry Trump's favor, worry no longer.

WTF is this?

@pizzacakecomic.bsky.social Damn 🔥🔥🔥

A goddamn cult. That is what this is. They are out of their minds with this nonsense.

Last month, a Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15M from data center developers to sell his farmland. Another in Wisconsin turned down $80M. America's farmers and others across the country are pushing back on Big Tech. This is what integrity looks like.

As you read @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social's piece on how Trump is fast-tracking his concentration camps by bypassing the bidding process, remember that Tom Homan accepted a pre-bribe from concentration camp co & Trump decided that was totally cool. www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/ice-buy...

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way. www.investigativepost.org/2026/02/25/b...

This is both an act of war *and* a war crime, as it is similar to cutting off water or destroying power plants. It's designed to kill civilians.

Second. Shoot him into the sun.

Remember, john roberts' logic for weakening the medicaid expansion was that it was "too coercive" to give the states money to pay for medicaid. bsky.app/profile/apne...

Anyone remember Ginger? That was the new transportation tech so overhyped that The Simpsons parodied it with a Mr. Garrison invention with an unusual user interface. My Prospect column asks why we so often succumb to these hype cycles: www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/techno... (Ginger was Segway!)

it's not exactly living long enough to dance on the grave of my enemies but it is a downpayment, i suppose.

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

The only surprise here is that a female was driving. I have questions

I have been awake for 27 hours. Still adjusting to the Crone in the Woods transition to the real world. In a just world, I could be a crone in peace.

My pup was rather anxious when I got home late this morning. I know city noises scare him. I know my being away scares him. So I wrapped him in a warm blanket, held him in my lap, and sang John Hiatt songs to him. He is a hound dog. He finally relaxed to “Lipstick Sunset”- Good Boy.

“Social Circle had taken out a $65m bond to fix the [sewage] system before ICE’s plans had materialized, the city manager said. With thousands of detainees at the edge of town, ‘you’ll have poop on the ground over there.’” No poop on the ground is a winning bipartisan issue.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported. He finally died. I am so angry. www.kptv.com/2026/02/21/n...

In the study but NOT included in the article: “However, reverse causation cannot be ruled out, as some individuals may begin to use cannabis to self-medicate prodromal symptoms of psychiatric disorders even before a diagnosis is made.”

Collins stood silently in the Oval Office clutching a red MAGA hat as Trump told lies about our elections and repeated his call for the federal government to take over vote counting in certain parts of the country. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/susa...

Two issues I'm pondering. One is that you can't move this many people without inflicting tremendous physical and psychological harm on those deported and on society itself. The second is that left in place for years, mass detention on a whole new level will be normalized. It rarely vanishes. [1/3]

I also took note of this yesterday. It was austerity messaging and I'm like... no.

They're quite literally pillaging the government.

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland. And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.
