I don't credit the modern American executive with the ability to think beyond the end of the current fiscal quarter, but if they could, I would think they'd be looking out right now and wondering what the cost/benefits of collaboration with Trump is going to look like in two, three, five years

A team of content creators, not wearing any kind of uniform jumped out of the car and filmed the arrests.

Bottom line is there's all KINDS of things your state and local officials and city attorneys could do to protect your community from ICE's ethnic cleansing campaign, *if* they really wanted to get creative. You should be hounding your local pols about this constantly.

Border Patrol Agent Charles Exum, who shot Marimar Martinez five times (she survived) as she drove her car in Chicago on Oct. 4, is also a firearm instructor.

Hundreds of ICE protests this weekend. Find one near you via this link 👇

Last night thousands in Minneapolis marched to the site where Renee Good was killed by ICE agent Jonathan Ross. Protests have continued to pop up throughout the city, including downtown tonight and will continue into the weekend.

From Echo Park Tenants Union, 10 people taken today in Echo Park/Silver Lake. Some were gardners, painters, and workers. All of them my neighbors.

uuhhhh, the White House is blaming MTG for Code Pink finding out that Trump was eating at Joe's Seafood and put Secret Service on the case www.axios.com/2026/01/09/t...

I’m outside of the Canopy by Hilton hotel, where protesters have gathered for a noise demonstration after learning DHS agents may be staying here.

PBS News notes this Sunday will be “PBS News Weekend’s” last due to federal budget cuts

I’m watching the Ken Burns series on the Revolutionary War and it’s pretty radicalizing just 30 minutes in!

Been thinking quite a lot this week about one of the very first cases I tracked of ICE detaining a U.S. citizen A year ago, ICE agents detained a 20 YO they said swerved his car at them But local Utah police checked security footage. And it wasn’t true ksltv.com/local-news/u...

The federal government Friday agreed to pay $125,000 after a judge found a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent liable for civil assault for pointing a gun at a hotel maintenance man who came to the agent’s room to unclog a toilet.

Enjoyed seeing this wholesome guy just noping all of Fox's leading questions. It was like Q:Don't you thinks she was wrong? A: No obviously ICE was wrong Q: What about the people who shouldn't be here? A: Obviously they should be here Q: Anything el-- A: I have a bell!

What is the point of appropriations if the White House can just cut off spending against its enemies?

I got all the way to the end until I realized he was talking about Iran

The reports of violence, arbitrary arrests, and intimidation tactics by the Iranian regime against its own people are profoundly concerning. Canada strongly condemns the killing of protesters, and urges Iran to allow for freedom of expression and peaceful assembly without fear of reprisal.

The dog was in the car. Looks like a good dog though of course they are all good dogs. Gray around the muzzle. Wondering what was happening. Wagging its tail.

Alpha News, which first posted the Ross video today, has ties to someone who was among the most vitriolic police union heads in country: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

We put out a call for #ICEOutForGood vigils 24 hours ago. There are now more than 1000 events taking place across the country this weekend. Find yours: www.mobilize.us?tag_ids=2913...

Ellison: "In other words, we didn't vote for him, so we can't have justice? Also, no president I've ever heard of received a $400m plane from a country trying to curry favor, crypto deals...he's truly distinguished himself in the area of corruption, so for him to call MN corrupt is quite remarkable"

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Massive win for transit in LA: Metro will pick underground heavy rail over a monorail for the all-important line from the Valley to the Westside via (and under) Sepulveda Pass.

People on here deploying sentiments not that different than “fucking bitch” about people (including politicians) with whom they have relatively minor political or tactical differences is so not helping.

Trump's thugs are shooting protesters in the face with their pepper guns

Not sure if “calling for” means “I will ask my droogs in Congress” or “I will issue a crayoned executive order” or “do it or I will send ICE agents to your daughter’s sweet 16”

Continually sickened by the misogyny and homophobia that runs through this whole affair--from the words of her murderer to the many attempts by conservatives to devalue her life since

Newsom's budget includes $200M to make up for Trump's canceled EV rebates, among other climate items

the gun didn’t fire (addressed in OP thread) but still worth a few dozen watches.

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.

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

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

Philadelphia sheriff Rochelle Bilal: “No law enforcement professional wears a mask…No law enforcement professional shoots at a moving vehicle. “What Trump’s private army is doing…is not only against legal law, but moral law.” Vows to arrest agents on site who commit crimes.

Last year when I wrote about prison staff jumping ship for ICE, I reported that BOP had lost a net of at least 1400 employees by late fall. I just got new data showing they lost a net of ~1700 by mid-December -- though w/EOY retirements the final 2025 figures will likely be higher.

BIG FIGHT AT POLAND’S WROCLAW ZOO!!!

Minnesota AG is teaming up with Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty's office to investigate the killing of Rene Good by a reckless ICE agent. Thank goodness, because Patel's non-independent FBI can't be trusted to do it fairly. May justice prevail.

FDR defended his 1937 court expansion plan on the grounds that the justices couldn't keep up with the case load. The Chief Justice debunked that. The argument would stand on much firmer ground today. Just FYI... www.nytimes.com/2026/01/09/u...

Had to look this up. He repeatedly raped her. And she and siblings and stepmother killed him to stop abuse and the Pope had them all killed, horrifically en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatric...

Apropos of absolutely nothing to do with the masked men with no visible agency insignia carrying crates of who knows what out of the shooter's house, but HBO just released an amazing documentary into DHS "shadow units" whose job was to destroy evidence of Border Patrol's crimes

Q: Is this ICE officer immune to charges? HENNEPIN COUNTY ATTORNEY MORIARTY: I can't speak to why the Trump administration says what it says. I can say the ICE officer does not have complete immunity here.
