DHS filed an answer today in the lawsuit Los Angeles Press Club filed against them for violently assaulting journalists, legal observers and protesters. Basically two dozen pages that look like this. Days I'm glad I'm not a lawyer ...

From someone on the ground in Lewiston, Maine:

Joe Rigney has been encouraging Don Lemon’s arrest. He’s one of Doug Wilson’s minions. 1/

God I hope someone is looking out for Nestor

Read the full report here: www.floridabulldog.org/wp-content/u...

The House Ethics Committee found that Matt Gaetz did all of the horrible things previously claimed—sex trafficking minors, prostitution (including of minors), drugs, drunk driving, obstruction, the works. The Florida Bulldog has secured and published the House report this evening.

EXCLUSIVE: The government has asked a federal judge to hide the identity of the informant in the "Turtle Island Liberation Front." www.permanentrecordx.com/p/motion-to-...

There may be additional forces at play, but we would be foolish to ignore that the “Tech Bros”were salivating over Greenland even before the 2024 election. 1/

Thinking of Logan Roy tonight.

My governor and federal reps should be holding press confs and going on tv telling people that one of the largest school districts is closed because of a federal gov’t-led ethnic cleansing campaign run by armed, masked goons who are brutalizing citizen observers and disappearing non-white neighbors.

Meet Raymond Thomas Reynolds, 35, of Minneapolis, MN. Reynolds attended the racist, anti-Islam rally with his fellow nazis including Jake Lang, the sieg-heiling Capitol rioter who was pardoned by Trump. Included is Raymond Reynolds's 2013 booking photo for driving while intoxicated in Wisconsin.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland. And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

Google makes billions per year from journalism. They only coughed up $10 million after this backroom deal. Google literally spent more on lobbying — $11 million! — to kill proposals that would have meant more funds for public interest journalism. As a whole, Google made $100 billion last quarter.

Europe may begin selling U.S. assets in response to a new conflict with the US—a move that could trigger a dollar collapse, Bloomberg reports. Deutsche Bank analysts warn Washington’s key vulnerability is living off global financing—and Europe may decide it no longer wants to bankroll the U.S.

Friends are pointing out that this church is more tight with John Piper than Doug Wilson but that they’re part of a greater affiliated crew.

People mad about a peaceful protest at a church have nothing to say about raids of hospitals ( and churches). With tech from Palantir.

Matching trends seen here the CREC (Christian nationalist sect led by patriarchal supremacists John Piper + Doug Wilson) church w/ an ICE pastor was involved in opposition to bike lanes— an issue that’s become a shibboleth for reactionaries trying to lure nimby centrists to fascist efforts.

Senior White House official says local and state police in Minneapolis “have been ordered to stand down and surrender.” What?

ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

mad king moment from the PBS Newshour correspondent

It's great that the most prestigious domestic intelligence agency in this country is now personally responding to X posts by racist incels.

It is reasonable to expect that ICE detention is a death sentence

They’re trying to deport witnesses to a murder by ICE guards

For weeks, I was watching LibsofTikTok and the rest of the right-wing internet post some of the most insane shit I've ever seen about the Minnesota Somali community. "Inciting a pogrom" is the only way I can describe the tone of it. I really do feel like that propaganda has been rejected now

This message is for the 11th Airborne Division. Your government has lied GI. Do not trust them, defect. It is a very good idea to leave a sinking ship.

ABC News reporting 1,500 active duty soldiers are on standby to deploy to MINNESOTA. The soldiers are from the 11th Airborne Division, based at Joint Base Elmendorf--Richardson, one of the Army's premier infantry formations. The division is also the military's leading formation for Arctic warfare

It’s 15 degrees in Minneapolis ❤️

You ever look in the mirror and ask yourself: how did I become one of the world's leading experts on some guys named "Combat Carl" and "Handsome Truth"?

“Kristina Olson” joined Jake Lang’s hate rally. She assaulted press while chanting “you will not replace us!” She appears to be a member of Assatrau Folk Assembly, a white nationalist group that shares some membership w/ Neo-Nazi group Blood Tribe. www.runestone.org/post/no-batt...

Right-wing influencer Jake Lang is stuck in a window recess against Minneapolis City Hall. He’s soaked with freezing water after counterprotesters hurled water balloons at him. bit.ly/4baGhJn

Lang's boys are vastly outnumbered by folks in opposition across the road here. People chanting, "go home Nazis" and "Nazis fuck off!"

Downtown Minneapolis currently— Jake Lang and a handful of other racists/RW propagandists are surrounded by about 50 cameras and some antifascists chanting him down. A banner the group arrived with has been broken.

My fellow “organized gangs of wine moms” and I cordially invite you to a screening of the #MomsClub documentary 2/5/26!

Trailer for “ Moms Club” , a documentary about 🍷Moms Committing Deadly Crimes in the service of Democracy. Here’s a link to donate and attend a virtual screening gofund.me/cc5f3fcef

I’m honored to have been able to be part of this documentary that follows some of my favorite moms and our work battling SoCal right-wing school board takeovers. There’s a virtual screening with a q&a on 2/5. A minimum donation of $25 will get you a link. All funds go toward finishing the film.

It seems there is some concern of #hostilemedia in Maine, given, well, a potential surge of ICE into Lewiston. I'll be reviewing a good amount of work by the indefatigable @crashbarry.bsky.social & @aobrien2024.bsky.social, whom have a good bead on who the bad players might be. Thread follows:

Over the weekend, the White House and the Department of Homeland Security shared posts with a song, "We'll Have Our Home Again." I dug into the group that performed and popularized it. Its cofounder said his goal was to create "the seed of an eventual government." www.splcenter.org/resources/ha...

It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.

Jesse Walker of San Diego, CA: DHS/CBP agent, a former Navy SEAL who travels with Greg Bovino as one of two personal bodyguards. Last seen in Minneapolis guarding a Target bathroom while his boss Bovino was pooping. Patches include "GTAC", "SC2005", "CASC-2005". Tattoo on his left outer triceps.

New: meet ELITE, the Palantir app ICE is using to find neighborhoods to raid. Map interface; officers search for immigrants; click person to bring up individual dossier. This is clearest link between what Palantir is building and ICE's activities on the ground yet www.404media.co/elite-the-pa...

On Fox 9 just now they interviewed a woman at the scene in Minneapolis. She says she’s not an activist but felt a call to action like she hasn’t felt since 9/11. She says she was raised to love America. She says she’s never felt scared of the government in her life, until now.

Making an entire database of 3 million people who think you suck absolute shit.

Got my photo taken earlier standing on patrol outside of my kid’s preschool in a high-viz vest. ICE seems like they are trying to collect the photo of every person in the Twin Cities who they feel is doing anything to stand up to them. Pretty frustrated that my hair looked like shit.

This dude, indeed, rules. I guess he’s an influencer of some kind, but I feel like so many people are, more or less. out there yelling “shoot me, bitch.” Every single threat and warning from an ICE agent is just met with greater disdain and more people in the street telling them to fuck off.
