Legal falsity aside, I think “our masked, anonymous paramilitary thugs have an absolute right to kill you and your job is simply to trust that they won’t” isn’t so much a defense as a confession

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has authorized the state's National Guard to help support local law enforcement as tensions have risen in Minneapolis after an ICE agent fatally shot a woman. https://cnn.it/3N9KXoN

Denmark deployed around 9,500 personnel in Afghanistan from 2002 to 2013, suffering 43 deaths—the highest per capita rate among NATO coalition partners.

Murphy: "As their agenda becomes more unpopular, they then become more dependent on trying to rig out democracy and rig the next election, bc nobody is gonna vote these guys back in ... You gotta connect the dots here. What they are trying to do is rationalize violence."

Yep, as always, JD Vance is completely full of shit. ICE agents do not have categorical or absolute immunity.

So far the BBC’s coverage of the Minnesota killing seems really, really off Get Verify to verify what happened - NYT, Bellingcat etc already have - and report that

surely the city of Minneapolis and/or the state can arrest the ICE goon for murder?

I get considerably more views and interaction of this site than most govt ministers combined on Twitter. There is no space to fill. No one sees their content.

There is a howling void where this man’s soul should be

We've heard your concerns, Illinois. Families are paying more to keep the lights on, and Trump's only making it worse. With the steps we're taking, residents today will benefit from new jobs and lower prices and residents tomorrow will benefit from a stronger power grid.

Desperate to paint scrutiny and heartfelt concern as procedural shenanigans Is it so hard to believe that many of us MPs and peers are hugely worried by this inadequate poorly-drafted mess of a bill, and take seriously our responsibility as lawmakers?!

my immediate thought is they are sending vance out to eat shit for the administration

Bishops and Spanish government agree on a plan to compensate sexual abuse victims

The right to life comprises a right not to be unlawfully killed and a right to have any killing properly investigated.

The murderer’s name is Jonathan Ross. www.startribune.com/ice-agent-wh...

BLITZER: Noem says Renee Good was 'stalking and impeding' the officers' work all throughout the day. Has your investigation shown that? ELLISON: No. It is perfectly legal to observe the apparatus of government, which ICE is

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

Channel 4 News close to examplary this evening. It pains me to point out that some people working for the broadcast partner of Bari Weiss's CBS News, the BBC, could learn a lot from Matt Frei & Anushka Asthana. But I also wonder how much 'balance' we give to obvious liars, however powerful they are.

The BBC has been trying to Both Sides the killing of Renee Good all day, and I've had about enough of what the Corporation has become.

This incredible woman is immensely brave.

If you’re a racist and have been all your life, and refuse to face up to the damage you do, then these accounts will trail around you forever like you’ve gone off. But Farage insists his voters love the stink of bigotry. So, he should be happy it just got worse. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

agree with what you say,there seems to be a very pointed choice by Starmer and the rest of the party to inform twitter or "X" if you prefer instead of having any contact here ,where at least a good few reasonable and concerned people live ,until the BBC makes that choice too nothing will improve

@louisehaighmp.bsky.social @sarahowen.org.uk @emilythornberry.bsky.social This cannot, cannot continue! Please exert all the pressure you can to persuade government, and colleagues, to stop using X to host their official comms. Thank you.

Christ. You think they can’t go lower. Then they do. And our 🇬🇧 Gov is willing to continue using that site for official statements thus drawing a large cohort of people to the site. bsky.app/profile/elio...

👉 Trump & Russia admitted collusion, once caught. Despite lying now. Proven in the Senate Counter-Intel Report 2020, which backed up Mueller's findings. More evidence since bsky.app/profile/chri...

So let me get this straight, if you’re a lesbian, a mother and you’re filming with your mobile phone after dropping your child off at school, you’re a domestic terrorist now? America is gone full on Putin.

A Reform UK source has admitted to PolHome that the council tax predicament is a "learning curve" for Farage's party At the same time, a senior Reform councillor in Durham tells colleague @matildamartin.bsky.social that the party is dealing with "huge headwinds" in local government finances

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

Bluesky community! This is my official NYC mayor account. I’ll be posting updates on what’s happening at City Hall and how we’re delivering for New Yorkers. It’s great to be here.

Hochul and Mamdani to unveil free child care plan in New York City

Again, the US president, his government officials, and supporters, are all lying to you about what happened here. This video clearly demonstrates the vehicle was not driving towards the ICE agent.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

Excellent, damning analysis of the video of the killing of Ms Good, from the NYT, including a quick debunking of the “evidence” the President showed other Times reporters last night. www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

Make this go viral. Labour MP Louise Haigh.

I have not personally used X/Twitter for some time now. It was already an unpleasant place prior to its takeover by Elon Musk but since his acceptance of hate speech and anonymous online abusers, it has become utterly unusable.

The absolute obsession on the British right, whether it’s Marshall Jnr or Miriam Cates, with Viktor Orban’s backward, corrupt and soon to be ousted administration is quite bizarre

Let's hope the majority of MPs find they have something more pressing to attend that day than Parliament, then.
