"If we have to follow the law and constitution we won't be allowed to break the law and violate the constitution" says man sworn to uphold the constitution.

Car chases are dangerous to bystanders and therefore often not worth it. Real law enforcement officers know that.

This is how you live a life

It reads like a warning, not an endorsement.

Once again, Republicans in Congress are spewing horrible, dehumanizing anti-Muslim comments without condemnation from their peers. We need to call out this poisonous pattern of hatred from Republicans, and they need to answer for it.

Fourth Amendment of the Constitution doesn't care, man.

So the Constitution requires us to abolish ICE. Cool cool cool.

Terrific piece by @rexhuppke.bsky.social on Elon Musk, White Nationalist

my take is that vibecession was a product of two really nasty global supply shocks (COVID and Ukraine), the general disruption of life from COVID and its aftershocks, ZIRP dying and cheap credit disappearing, and the pop-up COVID welfare state poofing out of existence

If they recovered even one missing child, that child's face would be all over Fox News. That's how we know the number is zero. Now, have they arrested and imprisoned 145,000 children? Maybe!

man ... lying under oath really ought to be a crime, you know?

Federal agents convinced an 11-year-old boy to open the door at 7:30 a.m. and then detained this Hmong grandma for 2 weeks in Texas. She shared a cell with 20 women. What did she do wrong? She has no idea, but ICE has returned repeatedly. She's still in hiding. www.twincities.com/2026/02/15/h...

Can’t believe we are still doing this

"White people are becoming second class citizens in America because of the radical left agenda." Is it Jeremy Carl in 2026, or an Oregonian's white supremacist screed written in 1959 in opposition to a proposed Civil Rights bill?

"The right people voting."

He was always going to find some fake legal pretext to reject results. I don't think this changes anything.

In an information landscape where people routinely accuse health professionals and reporters of making up the risks of not vaccinating, publishing a fictional piece as though it's a personal essay/true story seems irresponsible!!

seems bad

Gross. We need a real opposition leader, not MAGA lite.

This. It would be really, really great if Democrats would start *consistently* calling out the way that the media is led around like f'ing children by the right-wing hate machine. Don't just accept the frame. Call out the frame. Force viewers to confront the frame. It's so f'ing basic.

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women." Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration. It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. Our latest.

I'm just going to say a thing. What a person looks like is not reflective of their soul. Insulting the appearance of bad people who do bad things as an outcome or indication of their rotten hearts perpetuates the notion that conventional beauty = virtue, a myth that's led to untold human damage.

We are now here

“The Constitution does not permit the government to arrest thousands of individuals and then disregard their constitutional rights because it would be too challenging to honor those rights.”

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

The El Paso story is a perfect little slice of Trumpism. You take the combined incompetence of our Dep'ts of Transportation, Defense & Homeland Security and create a major public safety risk, shut down a major airport, alarm our neighbors that we are about attack them & shoot down a party balloon.

This is VERY BAD gift article www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/c...

as a kid I thought the Captain Planet villains who said stuff like “I love pollution” were unrealistic

UPDATE: He was just released. This shows that just indiscriminately took someone because they were Latino. Their illegal tactics continue so we still need neighbors to patrol, observe, and support our immigrant community.

I'm not believing this until I hear from people in the streets of MN and neither should you

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/11/u...

really interesting to me how many professional political commentators have basically retconned the draconian immigration enforcement policies of Obama and Biden out of existence and have completely swallowed the right wing narrative of immigration enforcement

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

When people read current writing on immigration a few decades from now, it'll hit the same as a reading the way people wrote about "the Jewish problem" in the 1930s. Just loads of well-educated and seemingly normal people accepting a monstrous normative frame as though it's natural.

Rand Paul to ICE officials on Pretti's killing: "Because people within the government made conclusions immediately that he was a terrorist and an assassin, people aren't believing that it's gonna be an honest investigation ... there has to ultimately be repercussions ... it's inexcusable."

Ending this operation is not enough. We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

Everyone in the Epstein emails is making a pubic statement like, “You have to understand: at the time, nobody CARED that he was raping girls!”

Hegseth's unconstitutional retaliation against Sen. Kelly was so brazen that an exasperated federal judge used more than a dozen exclamation points! Highlights from the ruling: "Horsefeathers!" and "Please!" "That is a troubling development in a free country!" buff.ly/YY60KWM

we know this, but a reminder: anytime ICE CBP etc says they’re drawing down their presence in a city, it’s bullshit. whatever their numbers, lawless federal agents remain behind & still cause havoc & kidnap people. Also relocated agents just go somewhere else to destroy lives. Abolish ICE end DHS
