This is a good read

On Saturday, Jan. 24, federal agents shot and killed Alex Pretti. Our photojournalists @cengizyar.com and @peterdicampo.bsky.social were on the ground in Minneapolis, covering events in the days surrounding Pretti’s death. This is what they witnessed. Read more: https://propub.li/3ZjL7wH

“Dr. Peter Attia wrote in an email to Epstein in response to an email with the subject line “Got a fresh shipment.” Attia answered his own question: “The life you lead is so outrageous, and yet I can’t tell a soul.”“

This is v powerful We know who the criminals are. Over & over & over. They are in so-called 🇺🇸 law enforcement agencies. The damage this is doing to USA standing in the world is incalculable. The Republican Party is now too weak & too rotten to reign in executive power immediately & fiercely.

‘ “Indeed, for much of the 2010s and likely before and since, it appears the crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States.“ Garrett Graff

Yesterday was AMAZING! 🚴‍♀️ An estimated 100k cyclists from 200 cities road a Memorial Bike Ride to honor Alex Pretti. Why? Because Alex was an avid cyclist. 🥹 I'll admit this had my tear ducts gushing for a full 5 minutes. Fascists vs Cyclists. 🚴‍♀️ Here's a montage of my fav clips - Part 1 👇🏼🧵

‘Nazi Blood Tribe’ ’Genocide Vance’ 2025/6 history

I’ve put TECHNOFASCISM in all caps because it’s a new form of power, repression & political control. We have to understand the stakes. And that this is a whole new level of threat. Please read & share 🙏 2/

This. Thanks to all those observers and their training.

“Let me just be clear, those federal ICE officers are absolute cowards. I’m a marine veteran standing here telling you to your face. They are unprofessional, pathetic cowards. Because if a marine did that in Iraq in the middle of a war zone? He would be court marshaled, because it is murder.“

A world where our health records are used to power state-sponsored surveillance and target vulnerable communities isn’t so far away https://goodlawproject.org/palantir-uses-medical-records-to-target-people-for-ice-in-the-us-will-the-uk-be-next

A fascinating read. We created an entire agency of rejects and failures

Read the excerpts. This is how bad it’s gotten. And thank God for the judges that are still defending the rule of law.

At 6:20 in this video, you can clearly hear an ICE agent say, "It's like Call of Duty. Cool, huh?" The untrained, racist goons think that it's all just a game, and their video game fantasies come to life. youtu.be/xsJhg3q11Qo?...

I have been warning for weeks the administration will do anything to get these records. They want to rig the midterms 🚨“The letter adds the state’s unwillingness to share voting data to a litany of grievances the Trump administration has leveled against Minnesota.”🚨

Lots of people are asking me why DOJ is leveraging the ICE deployment in Minnesota to obtain unreacted copies of the state's sensitive voter file data. I recently explained why this is the biggest legal story and may be the biggest political story of the year. Watch and share.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Are you filled with righteous anger about Donald Trump's fascism in the States? Good, but not enough. Now, make it your personal responsibility to ensure Nigel Farage never gets to introduce it here.

This is so upsetting

💯 Every. Fucking. Word.

Good summary for outsiders of what it’s like to live in America at the moment.

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

This is actually the really simple story of the collapse of American democracy. You can explain America’s constitutional collapse in a single coherent sentence:

Donald Trump is a criminal who should be in jail and not the White House. ICE is a band of lawless goons who shouldn't be allowed to carry guns or badges. And the citizens who peacefully protest the Administration's violence against our nation are the true patriots.

ICE is out of control and needs to get the hell out of Minneapolis #ThisIsAmerica #ICE

‘Secretary Hegseth came to his position from his job as a weekend host on the Fox News Channel.’ ‘he never rose to a command position and his “track record falls short of military standards.” He is the least-experienced defense secretary in U.S. history.’

More than 5,000 people here in Powderhorn Park protesting ICE’s occupation of Minneapolis. #FuckICE #iceout #mpls #FuckTrump

Pastor: I said to this ICE agent, 'Take me, stop harassing her.' The agent got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, 'Are you afraid now?' To which I said, 'I am not afraid.'

In a similar vein, one-third of Americans killed by strangers are killed by police. granta.com/violence-in-...

“Please can this be a turning point” (I don’t have much hope, they’ll just employ more ‘agents’ (thugs) and send more in at a time)

Back in November I told Westminster's women and qualities that the UK government needed to get off X. The committee's chair @sarahowen.org.uk is completely right - X is not an appropriate channel for comms. Quite the opposite

“ICE, I wrote last year, “is eating the soul of America.”” So depressing.

At the bus stop, going to work #ThisIsAmerica #ICE

These are rotten thieving scumbags #ThisIsAmerica #ICE

"family members identified the victim as Tustin resident Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all U.S. Marines." #ThisIsAmerica #ICE

Ukrainian foreign minister Andrii Sybiha correctly points out this is an attempt by aggressor Russia to derail attempts to achieve peace.

This is really important work and I am amazed by the amount of work that has gone into this project. Please read this.

With all this talk of how to end Russias war against Ukraine, and a cease fire, keep this in mind: If Ukraine ceases firing, Ukraine will cease to exist. If Russia ceases firing. the war will cease to exist. Pretty clear

’You won’t remember the flu waves of 2020/21 because there weren’t any. Covid measures effectively controlled the flu virus.’ ‘people should isolate themselves if they develop symptoms of a respiratory infection.’ ’Improve ventilation and filter air in public buildings’

From Amnesty International:

So good. Succinct.

Musk, Medvedev and the Long War on Europe Dmitry Medvedev joining Elon Musk in a call for the abolition of the EU captures fifteen years of Kremlin information warfare since Ukraine’s EU Maidan, and encapsulates the story of Trojan Horses pdjukes.substack.com/p/musk-medve...

Everyone needs to know all this. “Putin’s AI “atomic secrets” gambit: Russian elites seeding themselves into US tech PR and venture capital to gain insight into, and leverage over, frontier technologies.”

The CEO of Palantir.

Elon wants the European Union abolished because he doesn’t have more power than those nations when working together. Cooperation of smaller groups terrifies the wealthy because it shows just how greedy they are and how little they care about who they hurt to get more money/power.

It calls for the U.S. to dominate the Western Hemisphere using “tariffs and reciprocal trade agreements as powerful tools” “The United States must be preeminent in the Western Hemisphere“ “a condition that allows us to assert ourselves confidently where and when we need to in the region.” 😮

“they reject immigration as well as “the disastrous ‘climate change’ and ‘Net Zero’ ideologies that have so greatly harmed Europe, threatened the United States, and subsidize our adversaries.” Bonkers

It's a mark of our moral disintegration that there's even a discussion about Ukraine giving up land. To even countenance it is to reward colonialism.
