worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

It’s 2026. There is a measles outbreak in the prison for babies

BREAKING: CBP agents who murdered Alex Pretti have been IDENTIFIED: Jesus Ochoa, 43, and Raymundo Gutierrez, 35. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

It's been fun seeing The Consultants lose their mind about how they don't get this ad, which is the coolest shit she's done yet. (Also, yes, that's Matt Mercer, who I've come to learn since this ad dropped is more famous than Michael Jordan.)

Video shows ICE leaving behind an infant and broken glass after arresting a man with no criminal history. “There was a car seat in the back... There were broken glass shards all over it... There was just this tiny peanut of a baby. He was crying.” My latest: www.pressherald.com/2026/01/28/i...

“are you scared of a fucking whistle dawg” has been knocking around my head all day

Alexander Hamilton warned that when a government betrays its people, the right of self-defense remains. “If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is no resource left but the original right of self-defense.”(Federalist Papers, No. 28)

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jewish people murdered by the Nazis, as well as countless other victims. We honor their lives by rejecting the evils of antisemitism, dehumanization, and authoritarian violence wherever they appear. Never again means never again for anyone.

Rep. Veronica Escobar on a homicide in a Texas immigrant detention facility: "I've learned nothing else from DHS, and I think what's also very telling is DHS tried to deport the witnesses to this homicide"

Here is the shot his weapon is removed before he was executed

We still don't know the names of the ICE agents who killed Gonzàlez behind the wheel of his car outside Chicago in September. They were unmasked in this BWC footage from Franklin Park police. If you have any information at all about these men—please text us on Signal at unraveled.66

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

Fellow followers (especially those who love Critical Role): COMMISSION THIS ARTIST. Her art is SPECTACULAR, you will NOT regret it.✨🔥

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped from Minneapolis. He was my neighbor and he died in an American concentration camp. He was not "illegal," he was a human being made in the image of the divine. May his memory be a blessing, and may the rest of us fight like hell until we stop this brutality.

This. All of this. Generative AI has opened that hellish CSAM doorway even wider.

Trump bought stock in Netflix, so I encourage you to cancel. Tank it like we tanked Tesla. Don't line his pockets. Don't support state control of media.

If only they’d listened… DC, 2020

The centrist plan on ICE would backfire spectacularly. Dont say, "abolish ICE, say reform ICE" will lead to money being given to ICE for them to spend at their discretion. Giving people money, even scornfully, is not punishment.

published this and was then immediately without internet for 3+ hours to share it so please read 🙏

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now. If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

📣📢🚨 REPOST📣📢🚨 . www.womensmarch.com . On January 20, we walk out, everywhere. Resistance does not require purity or permission. It requires us to confront and expose power to drain it's time, momentum, and resources from their goal of making this their 'cash-out year. . GET ACTIVE (men too)🔔⚠️!!!

The issue with ICE is not training, the issue with ICE is that it fundamentally should not exist. The violence is the purpose

Blues Brothers is streaming on Prime. You're welcome.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

MN police unions released a statement in support of ICE. They are not going to arrest any of them.

AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”

Fascism is here. Whether or not we stand up to and eradicate it is the only question left. NO ONE is coming to save us...not Congress, not the courts, not law enforcement, not the military. IF, and it's a substantial IF, we get out of this, it will be because of us.

Sent this out via the newsletter earlier and no one really responded to it, so here it is. Someone said writing a poem wasn't an act of resistance, likening it to a fart in the wind; true, but I didn't write this as an act of resistance. I wrote it because I didn't know how else to process it all.

To cheese, or not to cheese? 🧀

My purity test... Anyone who wants my vote has to explicitly state that they will completely dismantle ICE and pursue all legal means to arrest, try, and imprison or execute every single ICE employee for crimes against humanity. Anything less will not get my vote.

Google the video & see for yourself. This is not law enforcement. This is murder. Sickening.

What do these companies have in common? -Cigna -Comcast -General Mills -Allstate -Marriott -Hilton -Walmart -Amazon -Microsoft -Meta All promised after January 6, 2021 to stop funding lawmakers who tried to overturn the 2020 election. And all have broken that promise.

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation. I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

My 2025 in Books

things to leave in 2025: giving people who engage with Taylor’s content in bad faith purely for clicks and views. I don’t know one person in real life who spends their time talking about the stuff they don’t like so why give someone on the internet attention for it?

A growing body of research indicates that Texas's restrictive abortion bans have negatively impacted the health and lives of Texas women and babies in multiple ways. Across the board, pregnancy outcomes and complications have worsened.
