really interesting to me how many professional political commentators have basically retconned the draconian immigration enforcement policies of Obama and Biden out of existence and have completely swallowed the right wing narrative of immigration enforcement

On the other side we have to prosecute them all Hitler pardoned his officers preemptively for war crimes, they were still prosecuted at the end of the regime Pardons are not absolute for crimes against humanity

I would like to argue that my artwork depicting the end of Aeschylus’s life is just as historically accurate as the average “Death of Cleopatra” painting. Klaire Lockheart, Death of Aeschylus. 2025. Oil on Canvas. 60x54”. #brodalisque #FigurePainting #PKFGrantee #Aeschylus #art

My god, this thread by a Minnesota lawyer who handling pro bono cases for DHS detainees is horrifying. DOJ's complicity in ignoring court orders shouldn't be shocking anymore yet somehow it still is.

The only Republican challenging Dem Sen. Ben Ray Lujan is disqualified by New Mexico SoS. The ABQ Journal says this would leave the GOP without a Senate candidate for the first time in "modern history," and just six years after Lujan won by only 6 points. www.abqjournal.com/news/four-ne...

If you live in Washington state like me, you can tell you senator to please vote in favor of SB6045 to allow farmworker collective bargaining in WA state. This bill is critical for WA farm workers who have been fighting to get a contract Thank you! app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?...

We have SIX DAYS to get this out of the Washington State Senate. NEXT TUESDAY is the legislative deadline to get bills out their house of origin. If it doesn't pass by then, it likely dies till 2027. Since farmworkers were written out of labor laws in 1937, we have to win at the state level.

For those of you who were keeping up with the mass market mess, here is a more informative article. Trade paperbacks cost only 30c more to make and are priced $18-20 now, where mass market paperbacks didn't sell at $12. So... there's your answer. It's about margins. boingboing.net/2026/02/10/t...

UPDATE: This plane landed in Cairo and is now headed back to Shannon. Previous ICE flights to Cairo delivered Russian dissidents and asylum-seekers to Egyptian authorities, who forced them onto planes to Moscow. At least one is now missing. #speirghorm gillianbrockell.ghost.io/ice-flight-r...

New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill on Wednesday unveiled a statewide portal for residents to upload photos and videos of federal immigration activity, as her administration moves to more aggressively scrutinize the work of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Yeah can you imagine if you tried to pull this shit with a home security system that had footage of you cutting your neighbor's tree branches? You'd be in jail! But put people in concentration camps and it's all sternly worded reprimands and scoldings.

It's just a sports ban. It's just a bathroom ban. It's just a healthcare for kids ban. It's just a military service ban. It's just a federal jobs ban. It's just a university housing ban. It's just a passport & visa ban. It's just one Constitutional right. It's just your status as free citizens.

Palantir billionaires are spending heavily to get this guy into office. The race for California governor is about to become a major flashpoint for tech fascism.

My Kalma has been diagnosed with breast cancer. The good news is she is in good health it may be low grade, meaning surgery will drastically improve life expectancy. The bad is it normally costs around $6000 and is time sensitive- things I just do not have. ko-fi.com/coyoteprince

Here’s an interesting fact we should all know: From 1975 to 2023, $79 trillion in wealth was transferred from the bottom 90% to the top 1%.

"administrative leave" is not enough.

4 months later - and only because the court ordered release of the records.

JUST IN: U.S. Customs and Border Protection says Border Patrol agent Charles Exum, who shot Chicago's Marimar Martinez, "was placed on administrative leave":

Too often when discussing trans rights, we’re forced to be on the defensive, as Republicans wage attacks. Today, we take the opportunity to look forward by introducing my Trans Bill of Rights, a comprehensive vision to provide protections for all trans and nonbinary people.

Court battle over surveillance footage at the Broadview ICE detention center reaches new levels of kafkaesque absurdity: The DOJ claimed it *couldn't afford* hard drives to put video footage on. Plaintiffs bought THE US GOVERNMENT hard drives. ICE "lost" them. www.404media.co/government-l...

A group of friends started singing a song in a language they didn’t understand and unintentionally opened an interdimensional portal.

So DOD risked civilian airspace to obliterate some fucking balloons; when FAA found out and asked them to stop they refused; FAA did what it had to keep people safe; when the public rightly freaked out, DOD relented, lied, and blamed the FAA. Sounds like Hegseth! www.cnn.com/2026/02/11/u...

First they said critical ICE detention footage was "destroyed." Then, lost in a system crash. Then, never recorded. Now, in the latest court docs, it shows the federal government lost three hard drives it was supposed to put footage on in a case where ICE detainees say they faced inhumane abuse.

BREAKING: The IRS admitted to improperly sharing confidential taxpayer data with ICE. In 2025, we sued the Trump admin to stop this data sharing — and this admission confirms that the IRS’s decision to bow to ICE was reckless. Trump's mass deportation agenda puts everyone risk.

NEW: ICE is crashing the US court system in Minnesota. Thanks to Trump's push to detain an unprecedented number of people, and its attempt to kill bond hearings, petitions to secure people's release from custody have skyrocketed. @regret.bsky.social w/ the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-cr...

We need to shut this airport down until the Irish government stops this shit and it is well within our collective ability to do so.
