Laken Riley’s killer is currently sitting in prison without the possibility of parole. Alex Pretti’s killer remains hidden from the public as the Trump White House pursues a massive cover up to ensure he never faces justice. Oh and there is no billboard. It’s an AI fake.

we’ve got a ways to go until 2030 so this could change but it’s pretty much an across the board disaster if it doesn’t building more housing isn’t just good policy, it’s existential politics

Highly suggest if you visit the Anne Frank house if you are in Amsterdam. It is a good as it’s talked up to be, and you can buy tickets on StubHub easily. Tickets are snatched up by tourists and scalpers instantly.

I think Democrats should understand that every “reform” will be met with demands for even more funds for immigration enforcement, just like local cops do: “If you require us to get warrants for every stop, we need more officers and funding.” “Body cameras? We need more funding and staff.”

There's something so insane about the fact that the app stores will, to the best of their ability, prevent you from accessing consensual pornography while letting pornography that is, by default, nonconsensual pass with a shrug

Ya they are being subsidized because they aren’t safe (no LIDAR) and Teslas safety reputation is absolute dogshit.

I don’t think we should make concessions to the Masked Murderers Guild of America. I don’t think we should compromise so the Masked Murderers Guild of America stops using kidnapped kids from schools as bait. I thought this was already illegal. The Masked Murderers Guild of America should not exist.

Turns out that Bari Weiss's all hands at CBS today is to announce she's bringing on some anti-vax guys and Niall Ferguson. www.axios.com/2026/01/27/b...

what a tidal shift

Trying to understand what authority the US DHS has in Italy? Or is it just more distraction, intended to obscure yet another grift, scheme or inhumanity?

Sending ICE to watch the Melania movie could really solve two of Trump's problems at once.

"Minnesotans are insisting that their neighbors are their neighbors whether they were born in Mpls or Mogadishu. That is, arguably, a deeply Christian philosophy, one apparently loathed by some of the most powerful Christians in America" ~ @adamserwer.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Qualified immunity destruction or bust.

"In the past, Republicans have just waited us out because they thought we would break. This would be a very dangerous moment for us to do that because of the specific moral question being put to the nation: Does the president of the United States get to murder American citizens?"

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

The US Embassy to Italy has confirmed ICE agents will be attending the Olympic Games and _surprisingly_ local politicians do not want murdering goons who provoke protest to come (Milan’s mayor: “Militia who kill are not welcome”) www.milanotoday.it/sport/olimpi...

We owe it to videos taken by brave Minnesotan eyewitnesses for exposing the lies of Kristi Noem, Greg Bovino, Kash Patel, Stephen Miller & Karoline Leavitt. While these often anonymous bystanders have the right to record, they do so at great risk; Pretti was initially targeted for recording ICE.

Getting ICE to take off their masks is the only path I see to ensuring harsh future accountability. It can be immediately verified. Every police force squashes and hesitated to release body cam footage, and makes poor excuses like it wasn’t charged or malfunctioned.

Bovino’s retirement needs to be a cage. His command environment yielded Renee Good’s death, Alex Pretti’s death & Julio Sosa-Celis’ shooting. Failure to prosecute Bovino & everyone else materially responsible for these atrocities will be understood by ICE, CBP, etc as a green light for the next ones

I know there is a high standard and all that but social media activists can analyze footage and call a murder a murder in 4-12 hours. I expect more of our journalism outlets in our viral, first reaction world, while the NYTs editorial team was still both sidesing it the first day.

Last year, a human trafficking victim trapped in a crypto scam compound in the Golden Triangle region of Laos contacted me. He then proceeded to leak to me a huge collection of the compound's internal materials. Then he had to get out alive. This is his story. 🧵👇 www.wired.com/story/he-lea...

You’ve got to love how actress Kelly Marie Tran, one of the most harassed people ever to be on the internet, still leapt up to defend trans people in a recent interview. No one would blame her for keeping her head down and shutting up forever but she will NOT and I admire her for it ⭐

Bari Weiss visualized as a lowly servant typist/podcaster from the regimes Führerbunker. 💀🎯

Downfall Bovino Edition. You're welcome.

And while the Democratic Party is deeply rotted, Democratic politicians are waking up—and will continue to wake up—to the fact that courage against fascism pays dividends. …while timidity will have a price tag. You want a big political future? Be brave. We’re in a dark place. But dawn is coming.

Now of course large group chats are always risky (larger risk of infiltration, etc), but at least Signal with expiring messages plus deniability plus forward secrecy has a significantly higher chance of keeping the messages away from people who weren't in the group right then and there

It's going to be fun to watch the ICE agents turn on each other when the prosecutions start.

Again: sounds like some little MAGA turd convinced some people in Minneapolis to add him to a few gigantic and minimally vetted Signal group chats. Zero fancy technology is required to do this. Do not flatter the Trump admin by assuming they’re better at this than they actually appear to be.

Still trying to sell studios on my Inglorious Bastards but with Muppets idea.

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

they put parental controls on his social media accounts. they got lil squirt on restriction 🤣

it is amazing what happens when you provide the slightest amount of pushback on these freaks More than anything they just want to be liked because through their fucked up dipshit ways they have driven out every normal person from their lives and so if you go "go fuck yourself" they clam up and freak

Goddamnit Bovino stole Stuart Little’s car, he’s getting away!

RIP Southwest Egalitarianism - The private equity era offocially begins.

The testing ground for Bovino’s Operation At Large was Los Angeles. A California judge initially prohibited ICE/CBP’s most flagrant constitutional violations. SCOTUS overruled her 6–3, handing Bovino a blank check to inflict unspeakable brutality on Chicago and Minneapolis. The 6 bear so much blame.

I'm gonna add to this that the Dems had ZERO to do with the Bovino firing. It was the tireless work of the good people of MSP standing strong, filming and writing the news with their first hand accounts. The press tried to both sides it. They WANTED to. But the citizens of Minnesota ended this guy

this is a negotiation phase. the first counteroffer to "shut down ICE" was sidelining bovino. that's not good enough

I know this is an uphill battle but it's kind of a problem how people will flippantly throw around the word "hacked" because the infosec specialists start sweating about zero day vulnerabilities when the editor in question meant "we found his passwords on the post-it he uses to obstruct his webcam"

many of you are coming off the top rope for greg bovino, but you really don't need to do that. bottom rope is high enough

Important: Kash Patel’s egregiously anti-first-amendment statements here and Cam Higby’s claim to have “infiltrated” huge ICE-monitoring chats do NOT mean Signal is somehow “compromised.” “An asshole manages to get added to some massive + intentionally minimally-screened chats” is not surprising.

Nilo mentions this downthread but like, the 3 trunk routes in DC run trains the same size as Shanghai line 2, a line that serves 2 million people per day, more than triple the entire DC network. We're not really short on infrastructure in the large cities for the most part, it's a land use problem!

I want to say this too: this victory was won because we had observers EVERYWHERE. ICE and CBP couldn't set foot in our city without cameras rolling. Much of the nation seemed determined to ignore our plight for weeks, but the avalanche of documentation we produced dragged the nation to us.
