My goal as a parent was always to raise better men than me I just received a video from one son of my other son juggling dildos outside the Whipple Building There are many things I could have done better but I can't really argue with the results

"Hey I'm going back to the dildo box, I just had the idea to juggle them" Cameraman who would later be arrested after singing "FASCIST DILDO CLEANUP CREW DOO DAH DOO DAH": @ckinferno.bsky.social But don't ask him questions, he won't say shit ✊ (posted with permission)

My favorite part of this story is that Gabbard says she just had no idea what she was supposed to do, because the IG didn't tell her! FFS Tulsi you're the DNI. Short of POTUS, the buck stops with you. It's your job to know, or to ask agency counsel, what you are supposed to do.

Somehow the man's name is not "Hillary Clinton"

I hope this happens every day for the rest of his miserable life lasvegassun.com/news/2026/fe...

'Turn in your neighbors, and life will be better for you.' Logic circa 1930s Germany, now DHS policy.

For explaining to a judge how hard she had to bust her ass to get DHS to follow a single court order, Julie Le has been relieved of duty.

MPR’s write up is far more coherent than the earlier TV station one.

I’m here, your Honor. I’m ready to proceed. I am not a cat!

Not the main point, but what the FUCK is this? Jonathan Ross didn't kill Renee Good––his gunshots did. Most egregious case of Cop Passive Voice I've seen yet.

This is… astonishingly abnormal.

Up at Silverwood Park in St Anthony, MN, they built an ice carousel. Drill a hole in the ice, put in an outboard motor, cut the ice in a big circle, fire up the outboard, ice carousel. People do fun weird shit outside in Minnesota all winter long. Park was packed. It’s delightful here.

Given how badly staffing has been hit, this could be incompetence. But if the girls are underage, that makes their pics CSAM … and that makes downloading the files risky. Bc criminal liability for having CSAM attaches more or less at the instant you SEE it. We just trus DAs not to abuse charging.

I just use todoist's built-in capacity to do reminders for things like buying milk. Silly me, I could be using AI instead.

My mum had bombs dropped on her as a child. My dad bled on a beach in battle. I'm not yet bored of rules-based coexistence, because anger isn't the same as education, history isn't a comic, and interesting times don't just happen to someone else.

I work at a Big Giant Firm on a High Priority Client with Very Ambitious People, most of whom aren't based in Minneapolis. I wrote my team a super transparent message today, explaining that compartmentalization is impossible and I'm likely going to be bad at my job for a while. The responses 🧵

Somebody who is a bigger Article 3 nerd than me: how can there be an "actual controversy" when the plaintiff, as unitary executive, exercises total control over the defendant?

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

I have no doubt that the witness who asked to be called Javier heard DHS officials referring to "USCs", but it just means "United States citizens" not "United States citizens in custody." USCs is just part of the lingo. Like LPRs, EWIs, and (more recently) PWIs.

Unless you're doing some insane stupid Weather Underground shit the actual risk you face from the authorities isn't some crazy Big Brother tech shit. it's that some cop beats or shoots you from a foot away because he got angry.

Tho petitioner T.R. has been released, his atty tells me he will ask Judge Schilitz to go forward with Friday's hearing and make ICE director Lyons show cause why he shouldn't be held in contempt for not releasing TR earlier. (Info per TR atty Graham Ojala Barbour.)

At this point you basically have to assume that anything you tell an app will A) get hacked B) End up for sale on the dark web C) Correlated with your name, DOB, SSN, and with those details, anything else you ever told any other app

"Senator Chuck Grassley, a lifelong Iowan, has served on the Senate Judiciary Committee since 1981, when he was first sworn into the U.S. Senate." www.judiciary.senate.gov/about/chair He questioned and voted on every single justice on the U.S. Supreme Court during their confirmation hearings.

WOW

I've seen people arrested and convicted on threat charges for a lot less...

Important reminder that Alex Pretti did not "bring a gun to a protest." There was not a "protest." He was an observer filming and directing traffic because ICE showed up to terrorize his neighbors.

So Greg Bovino is back to his post at USBP in El Centro. There are many lovely hardworking Americans in El Centro but at a place to be it is not to everyone’s taste. I had a hearing in El Centro and drove there the night before because you can’t get there in the morning…../1

Minnesota hasn’t elected a Republican governor in 20 years, and hasn’t sent its electoral college votes for the GOP since 1972. They are currently working hard to add another whole generation to those numbers.

The terror kids have been put through the last 2 months will last for years. This is on the MNGOP. They did this.

"It has to, it's beyond debate" -- again, morally compelling but not a great legal argument. They are, after all, there to debate that very proposition, which the judge must decide. It would be great if they had stronger legal arguments.,

This does not sound like it’s going well for the state. When a judge asks for a legal authority and the lawyer responds by pounding the facts, it means they don’t have a good answer. The vibe I’m getting is that Carter’s legal argument is “c’mon you gotta help.” Which is not a *legal* argument.

BREAKING via Star-Tribune: GOP gubernatorial candidate ends bid, says he can’t support "stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.” Read more www.startribune.com/chris-madel-...

"If you use wrongspeak, my people will shoot you down in the street"

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today. This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

Update: In the evidence preservation lawsuit, the current Civil Chief at the Minnesota U.S. Attorney's Office (who appears to be Ana Voss, based on the letter), refused to accept email service of the lawsuit last night and then refused to accept in-person service until Monday. Ridiculous behavior.

Let us all have the courage displayed by the residents of Minneapolis.

Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration. Congress can: - Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage) - Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes - Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same - Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction It can be done.

Treat the US government and ICE claims like you'd treat a Russian government claim after they've shot down an airliner or bombed a hospital. America 2026.

All of Bondi's demands are moronic, but buried within that mound of shit is something interesting: Do you think, 48 hours ago, that anyone in the regime would have given ANY conditions for exit? I don't.

BREAKING: Hennepin County DA @marymoriarty.bsky.social and the MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension file federal lawsuit against DHS, demand preservation of evidence from the murder of Alex Pretti this morning: www.courtlistener.com/docket/72185...

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

Rest in Power brother Alex Pretti, AFGE Member and VA nurse murdered by Border Patrol

I’m not sure how many more people I can watch die on social media.

years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

A magistrate judge found no probable cause to support arrest warrants for 5 people involved in the St. Paul church protest. DOJ appealed to the 8th Cir. That appeal led to this remarkable letter from the Chief Judge of the Minnesota district court… storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Whatever well-earned beef folks have with the strib, this front page is 10/10

Demonstrators as far as the eye can see. Current status of the march in Downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota for Ice Out of Minnesota. They are turning onto 3rd Street from 5th Avenue.

Cannot see the end of it.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.
