I’ve heard from immigration attorneys that clients say ICE guards lay out the WRAP device (essentially a full-body straitjacket) on the tarmac as a threat — “do what we say or you’re getting the WRAP on the whole flight.” And here’s proof, from Seattle livestream today via @lalabote.bsky.social.

Why are men like this?

Iceland has joined Ireland, Spain, the Netherlands & Slovenia in boycotting Eurovision due to Israel’s genocide* in Gaza. *The ICJ described the situation as a ‘plausible genocide’ & the UN special report called it a genocide. Israeli propagandists are now claiming every Icelander is ‘antisemitic’

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported? NOEM: We haven't deported veterans MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

Another way to interpret this: The Washington Post endorses re-segregation of American society.

Should have given them all extra fingers.

Can't say I ever expected to see a "That Font was No Angel" headline. But here we are.

Yeah, you just never see white men on TV anymore.

The mother of Chicago police Officer Krystal Rivera filed a wrongful death lawsuit Wednesday in which she says her daughter’s partner Carlos Baker was struggling to accept her decision to end their romantic relationship when he fatally shot her during a foot chase on June 5. tinyurl.com/5krk79br

Days after FIFA awarded Trump a fake peace prize, DOJ moves to drop charges in FIFA corruption case www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/n...

This is one of the *many* reasons it is important for folks who can do so to follow ICE around town. If they are tailed by 15 moms in their crossovers, it's more likely someone will be there to help when they dump a neighbor into a snowbank to die.

Chris Rufo literally was a core figure in boosting a lie that Haitian immigrants in an Ohio town ate pets. He offered a bounty for “information” after the lie was repeatedly debunked. Spare us the navel-gazing nonsense.

An incredible admission at how top down the right is and how the oligarchs propagandists view their followers as lemmings to manipulate through social media rage bait. Now they're upset that they have lost control of the manipulation machine.

When I was pushing my mom in her wheelchair and driving in and out of dialysis clinics and frequent visits to the ER, all I wanted was the ability to shop for health care like I’m on a Walmart run.

ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground. Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse. Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

i gotta hand it to the "let's ban african immigrants from voting" lobby, they got the one spokesman who could convince me.

They think it’s an anti white epithet rather than a factual description of a set of beliefs

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

A new investigation has revealed that grocery delivery service Instacart is using a covert, AI-powered dynamic pricing scheme to charge customers different prices for the same items — potentially costing households over $1,000 more a year.

White people can't be illegal immigrants anywhere. Duh.

I know this isn't the point but it seems to me that they only need to do this if the companies they're currently using to facilitate these kidnappings are facing outside pressure to stop

JUST IN: Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Snell just confirmed, at the prodding of U.S. Magistrate Judge Keri Holleb Hotaling, that this motion for dismissal followed a "no bill" from a grand jury. That means the grand jury refused to indict.

you just know weiss was like “we are going to elevate the HERO who stood up to the Chief Commissar of the Woke Left”

Wait, this is the dude who did that cringetastic [attack] interview of TNC?

elite DEI panic is just status competition, part infinity

I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

Time again for my favorite christmas post ever, one that still makes me laugh every time i read it

What I think is interesting is the lack of global protests, given how loud people were about boycotting Qatar...a country that doesn't commit 1/8th of the human rights violations the U.S. commits...but you know...they're Arabs

I just scrolled IG for five minutes and I don't think I saw a single post by an account I actually follow.

Fuck this airport shit

Is this a deleted scene from the movie Soft and Quiet?

that Voltaire quote the antisemites always use ("to learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize") was: 1) not actually said by voltaire - ironic, since he WAS a virulent antisemite who said a lot of other stuff they could use 2) wrong on its own merits!

Even the robots cannot fucking believe what we are doing.

I arrive early at the gate for my flight to Las Vegas. There are no seats, just rows of assorted workout equipment. I unbutton my suit jacket, shove the ends of my tie into my shirt pocket and nestle my dress shoes into the oversized pedals of an elliptical machine.

Gentle reminder that the European Union was established because the first four decades of our 20th century were mostly internecine war and genocide.

you: absolutely and correctly livid at the abject stupidity of this suggestion me: unable to stop muttering FEWER calories

Every legal story now is either Ancient Circuit Judge Delivers Crystal Clear 100 Page Rebuke To Trumpist Overreach or In Unsigned Shadow Docket Decision, 6-3 Majority Declares Trump Can Hunt People For Sport

It’s well known among reporters that Trump answers his cell phone. If you can get the number, he picks up.

I am against people not liking me.

I came across *the* example I have been hammering with these food delivery robots. A man with a mobility aid is forced to step aside because there is not room for him because the robot will not make room for a person (esp. those with a mobility aid who need addditional room)

Supreme Court oral argument this morning, in sum Sotomayor: you're asking us to destroy the foundation of government (derogatory) Gorsuch: you're asking us to destroy the foundation of government (complimentary)

You can’t ride a bike on a Chicago sidewalk—and for good reason. But a company can deploy a fleet of robots on wheels to traverse our sidewalks to deliver fast food? blockclubchicago.org/2025/12/08/d...

Let's be sensitive to our language choices this week!

Fuck vote blue no matter who. If all this madness isn't enough to get the Democrats to field a candidate who can support trans rights and be against genocide they're telling me they don't want my vote and I'm happy to oblige. I'm not voting for a more polite Trump. Full stop.

(Somewhat) randomly thought of this album this morning. I had forgotten how good it is. And it's not available on streaming services!

The reason to require government approval of big mergers is to prevent market-distorting concentrations of corporate power that harm competition and consumers, not so the president can distort the market in favor of ideological allies and/or solicit a bribe for himself.

On 16th March, 1968 Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson Jnr was flying helicopter recon for a US attack on My Lai, an alleged Viet Cong-controlled village in Vietnam. But as the attack developed below, Thompson realised he was witnessing something something else: A massacre. He decided to act. 1/28

When Dan Marino ruptured his Achilles in 1993? That's right: COVID vaccine.
