“Abolish ICE” isn’t radical, it doesn’t go far enough. Latest in @theguardian.com written with my friend @victorerikray.bsky.social. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

What I love about this article is it shows the enormous difference between the hold Hitler had over Germany and what we’re living through right now.

There have been confirmed reports from local organizers in Portland ME that ICE is knocking on doors claiming to be from MaineCare and “offering help“

Republicans insisting the Clintons testify about what’s in the Epstein Files instead of just releasing the Epstein Files is peak idiocy.

Native Americans protested in Minneapolis today after the ICE abducted four Oglala Sioux Tribal Members. Three of them are still missing. (1/17|26)

There’s no real debate. I have witnessed a very small number of ICE activists advocating for carrying firearms or even trying to agitate by physically striking ICE vehicles, etc. Let’s be clear: the incredibly vast majority of people resisting ICE correctly believe these people are fools.

"ICE Watch works because it surrounds men seeking approval w ppl loudly expressing their disapproval. The noise has the added benefit of drawing large crowds of bystanders who can quickly outnumber the ICE agents, who then have to decide if they want to escalate a situation or perhaps abandon" it.

NYT publishes audio of Karoline Leavitt threatening CBS over its Trump interview: “He said, ‘If it’s not out in full, we’ll sue your ass off.’” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/17/b...

From an optics perspective... the protesters being the ones waving the US flag while Bovino et al looks like every awful nazi inspired movie we've ever seen... hats off to Minnesotans.

saw a headline saying Elon Musk claims he was unaware Grok was making explicit photos of minors, an inevitable outcome of removing all safeguards thinking about sxsw 2023, where I tried interviewing web3 enthusiasts, several of whom told me to imagine social media where nothing could be removed

So stop trying!

okay so the landlord that ghosted me FINALLY MESSAGED ME — ngl it was literally what brought me back to life today — and i’m filling out the tenant self-disclosure form that he sent me : TELL ME WHY DOES THE LANDLORD NEED TO KNOW WHERE I WAS BORN? AND MY NATIONALITY?

I do not consider myself a DS, but I do fully agree with this statement. And I would also like to add that people should be able to get wealthy, but never so wealthy that they can freely destabilize nations when people try to regulate their businesses.

It's wild to watch people like Joe Rogan come to grips that voting for the "mass deportations now" candidate meant voter for a literal war against your non-White neighbors. The entire discussion around the 2024 campaign was so fundamentally unserious it might as well have happened in a fever dream.

Thanks, non-Kamala voters!

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

I just found out last night that the $50k enrollment bonus only pays out after 5 years of service, and reader, the laugh I let out when I read that woke the dog from across the house. These absolute fucking grapes aren't seeing a dime of that money. No way they can ride out 5 years of this job.

He’s 21. Aunt says a DHS agent shot him in the face with a “less lethal” at close range, nearly severing an artery

Is this AI? It doesn’t look like AI. I hate that I’m even wondering about this.

Hats off???

Ah yeah that really explains a lot

I wrote book reviews for a while for the WSJ well over a decade ago, and Bari Weis was my editor. One of her special tricks was to try to insert a sharp rightward slant into my essays *after* it had been copy edited, as a way of slipping her viewpoint in at the last minute.

“I did something so stupid and irresponsible that it would destroy our country to remedy.” That’s the argument the President is making regarding why the federal government should get to profit off of an illegal tax.

I am once again reminding you all that the UK government introduced an Online Safety Act that is effectively a porn ban on most adult porn websites, but is dithering over banning a website that is actually creating child porn.

Let's be clear. Donald Trump will indict the Fed Chair, kidnap foreign leaders and kill American citizens in MN if it distracts you from asking WTF is in the Epstein files because HIS BASE doesn't like pedophiles. None of this is normal. But everything he does is from weakness right now.

Tag yourself I’m “hysterical pussy hats”.

I cannot emphasize how much “be the news” is the opposite of what I was taught about how to be a good journalist and strikes me as an excellent way to churn out elite solipsism that has nothing to do with the public interest and everything to do with self promotion www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/b...

I can’t emphasize enough how shocked my out of state friends and family are when I tell them what has happened in Minneapolis since Renee Good’s murder. Without reliable media, most not-chronically-online people are completely in the dark. If you want to help Minnesota, tell people what you know.

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.

It’s maxing out their capacity for now. These are training exercises. They’re filming to increase recruitment. They’re blocking congressional monitors so they can build a parallel government. Everyone menaced by ICE that has grounds should sue. Cut their budget by other means.

Hey @thehill.com we’re still waiting on your apologies for this lie. 🤷‍♀️

Pretty willd how the DOJ just straight up stopped releasing the Epstein files even though they're legally obligated to do so.

Breaking News: The EPA will stop considering lives saved when setting pollution limits and instead calculate only the cost to businesses.

Very funny that the guy who turned the east wing of the White House into a pile of rubble one Friday is criminally investigating the federal reserve chairman about a building renovation

Having served in multiple countries run by ruthless dictators, I am accustomed to their tactics for keeping their populations under control. One of them is to employ a legion of fake opposition figures who promote the false narrative that "all parties are the same, so why bother voting?"

Someone had better leak the Epstein Files to prevent WW3.

New York City turned OUT. @handsoffnyc.bsky.social ✊❤️

Chris Murphy: "Let's talk about what's at stake here. The president is spending every single day thinking about invading Greenland, managing the Venezuelan economy, building a ballroom. He's not thinking about the American people at all."

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia. Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.” Really listen to it.

Bucks Coach Doc Rivers Calls Minneapolis ICE Shooting "Straight-Up Murder"

It would be hysterical if everyone at Davos next week decides to ban together and pass economic sanctions against the US.

And despite it all, this is Tehran 🇮🇷

Lots of worried people out there. That’s GOOD (Made this for Instagram but reposting)

I broke the story yesterday that masked ICE agents (not DOJ) were removing items including a personal computer from the home of Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. I have yet to see a single news outlet cover this or an elected official even acknowledge it.
