18 mo baby Amalia had COVID-19, RSV & pneumonia. #ICE nearly killed her. What if your precious child were dangerously sick & denied medical care? What if you & your baby were being held in a facility serving worms in the food, with foul water & nothing to keep warm but a thin foil blanket?

Good. Hiding the names of people asking for 10 year old girls is fucking disgusting.

I was really tired and also did not want to work, so I took a nap. When I woke up, the work was still there. That seems unfair, somehow.

Will this mean Trevor Noah's lawyers can ask for unredacted Epstein Files as part of discovery?

This is what most anti-vaxxers believe, that they are really healthy, do all the right exercises and take the right supplements, are immune from any disease, and the only thing that can harm them are vaccines.

Ifmost there's anything I've leaned in the past 6 years it's that the powerful force building and tearing down nations is propaganda.

Imagine this in a trial. Devastating first-hand witness to Alex Pretti's killing Declaration filed in federal court: "I don't know why they shot him. He was only helping. I was five feet from him and they just shot him."

If being armed is a valid reason to kill people, a lot more Americans would be dead

So I watched the shooting video frame by frame and it looks like: 1) They were beating a struggling man with batons 2) His jacket opened revealing a gun in his waistband or lower back 3) The agent in gray grabbed the gun and was walking away 4) THEN the other agents shot the man in the back

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

Pay CLOSE attention to the wording in any DHS statements. DHS will say "armed suspect" DHS will say "approached officers with a gun" These are copaganda phrases to make it SOUND like the victim was holding or brandishing the weapon. He was not.

When everyone videos everything, if you still believe the party line, there's something wrong with you. The anti covid vaxxers who insisted they believed "what was in front of their eyes" over reams of globally funded and conducted research are demonstrating who the #sheeple really are #Minnesota

I am trying not to post on these events in this state of mind but: I hope people understand what the observers are doing is brave and dangerous.

Even if taking GLP-1 RA was "taking the easy way out" (it's not) there would be absolutely nothing wrong with that. Weight is not a moral failing requiring punishment.

A pilot just flew through one of the strongest aurora storms in years — and saw the sky explode in color. From the cockpit of a Boeing 787, pilot Matt Melnyk had a view like no one else. Flying at 37,000 feet over Manitoba, he watched as the auroras filled the entire sky.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

The beating heart of the wellness industry flows with pseudoscience, and to say that it’s lucrative would be an understate­ment. I wrote about its unsavory history in @bigthink.com: bigthink.com/health/the-u...

A man told me yesterday that it was important to "take emotion out of the equation“ when analysing the situation in the US, at which point I told him very calmly that "a woman who disagrees with you is not necessarily emotional". Ladies, it was a breakthrough. I should have done this years ago.

“America is not supposed to be a place where an angel-faced 5-year-old named Liam, with a floppy-eared hat and a Spider-Man backpack, gets seized and taken to a detention center by men in masks.” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/24/o...

Perfect example of how MAGA doctors are leveraging their COVID disinformation as a pretext and justifications for withdrawing from the WHO and other acts of self-destruction. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuBU...

If this is how they’re treating purple heart recipients and US veterans… imagine what it’s like for the undocumented immigrants. These camps must be closed. Abolish ICE.

The party of law and order literally just wrote themselves a memo that says they don't have to follow the 4th Amendment. That's right, ICE intends to perform illegal search and seizures without a warrant. Add that to the list with "we had to beat up the police on Jan 6 to defend our democracy".

One lie that RFK Jr & his MD lackeys (Drs Makary, Oz, Bhattacharya, Høeg, Prasad) keep spouting is that their polices will boost trust in public health 📉Surveys show such trust has FALLEN since they took power By @elizabethjacobs.bsky.social & @jimalwine.bsky.social thehill.com/opinion/heal...

😂

How do you tell someone with post-exertional malaise, brain fog, shortness of breath, musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, dizziness, chest pain, gastrointestinal distress, hypersensitivity to sound and light, and tachycardia that “you’re fine!” Really???!??

Epidemic abuse: "One-third of all Americans killed by strangers are killed by police" "White nationalists pervade law enforcement 10,000 family dogs killed by police every year (DOJ: "epidemic") "Police solve just 2% of all major crimes" "NYPD Costs $10 Billion a Year "50% of municipal budgets

“ICE isn’t the Gestapo. The Gestapo was…” (proceeds to describe qualities that apply to what ICE is currently doing)

This is pure, unabashed bigotry. If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party. But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence. A stain on our Congress.

Le *gasp* Galaxy cane 👀👀👀

Polls like this make me so frustrated. The Liberals and, even moreso the NDP, have GOT to figure out how to reach young people. There is zero reason Conservatives should be polling like this except for their opponents clearly not understanding or embracing what they should stand for.

bill cassidy traded countless lives of babies and children and grandmas so trump wouldn’t burn him. and trump just burned him.

Given the current situation, it’s really important to know that a person can get the MMR vaccine for up to three days *after* exposure. This may help reduce the severity of the infection if not ward it off completely, but only for those in whom it’s not contraindicated. (1/2).

A family from South Carolina brought their measles infections to airports, ferries and various locations in Washington state. The health department says that they didn’t know they had measles. But this is why unvaccinated people are a danger to communities, not just themselves.

NEW: Jonathan Ross, the ICE thug who murdered Renee Good, was NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL according to police reports. He was taken to the Federal Building. He was NOT INJURED. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

The antivaxxers and misinformers will shout “we are being censored!”

One week ago they shot and killed a white woman in broad daylight. Tonight they’ve shot a protester in the leg and put six children in the hospital. The kids were in a car with their Dad who was trying to get them out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash bang into the car. They have no limits.

You may have heard that there’s a measles outbreak in Arizona. You may not have heard that 97% of the cases were unvaccinated, and that measles continues to spread in the state.

It’s past time people left X. It’s way past time for governments and politicians to get off X. @mark-carney.bsky.social - Very disappointed in the response of your Ministers (Solomon and Miller). It’s time to act.

🎯 (Alt text: Cartoon with people fleeing a death ray, one saying "I really don't mind the government's new death ray, because it hasn't hit me yet.")

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

ICE orphaned a 4 year old child. That child will grow up and have to hear vicious lies about his mother because of propaganda, hatred and fascist leaders He will hear that his Mom “deserved” to get shot Shame on everyone blaming Renee Nicole Good for what was clearly murder.
