crying my damn eyes out opening boxes of donated filament for whistles and reading all the notes they came with and seeing just how fucking much people give a shit and want to protect their neighbors.

Bill Melugin of Fox News may be the best-sourced journalist within ICE and CBP. If he's hearing this, the administration has a real problem.

Hello academic sky -- does your institution subscribe to the OUP? Do you have access to a PDF of this book? I can't find anywhere to purchase the PDF because the hardcover is still pre-order. Alighting from the Air: Tamara Karsavina, Dancer and Writer | Oxford Academic share.google/OZzT63z4Cwf9...

Dems are gonna miss last week when they could've grabbed for "abolish ice" sorry now it is "imprison ice" keep up

AI cannot feel. Its incredibly demeaning to both humans and non-human animals that feel actual emotions to frame it like this, Amanda, you weirdo. You should feel judged.

Y'all. Please. Today and every day. Do not write down criminal intent. Do not post about doing illegal things. Don't email your revolutionary plans via gmail. Don't make murder jokes on discord. Use a tiny bit of filter. Don't assume you're too insignificant to matter. Just don't write it down.

How many times have many had COVID? Over 40% of infections are asymptomatic with no testing going on. Children have no vaccine protection, they are still getting blood vessel damage. 🧵

Minneapolis, MN - Minneapolis PD SWAT is here and some city workers clearing things out of the street in front of what I guess can best be described as the “The Battle of The Home2Suites”

Minneapolis, MN - After FPS agents went into the hotel, shot teargas and kinetic munitions into the crowd assembled outside he wanted to know where the PD is to the press. I asked if he has a message for the community members that wanted out. No response. None to the mayor either.

aya and her family are struggling and they’re not receiving donations please share and help if you can! chuffed.org/project/1554...

fuck yeah, let's have multiple American cities competing to be the graveyard of empires, putting their own regional spin on that shit like antifa terroir; future generations are gonna argue over who did it best like they argue over whether cheesesteaks or juicy lucys are better

You can all just quit your jobs. I want you to remember that. You don't have to go try and do pointless stooge shit in a city that already hates you more than you've ever hated anything and will sniff you out as diaper baby cowards before your rental van gets over the Ben Franklin Bridge.

It was obvious from how Bovino answered this question that his only concern in this situation was that the public not learn the killers' names. He is at best absolutely indifferent to people under his command wantonly executing people in the street, and more likely privately celebrating it

An important point here: admin leave is a necessary and expected minimum response after someone has been fatally shot, even in cases in which there is no real question that it was justified. You just took a life. bsky.app/profile/toob...

I watched the entire DHS press conference which Bovino just held a few minutes ago. They are tripling down on the fascism. Bovino could not have not been more clear that there is nothing that can't be justified in the name of immigration enforcement, and that there will never be consequences for ICE

The Border Patrol agent in Chicago who shot Marimar Martinez five times “was back at work within, I think, three days of the incident in our case,” her lawyer told me. www.huffpost.com/entry/marima...

My take? It is a false economy to take shortcuts with your health while travelling. It takes a few seconds to wear a mask. A few minutes to boil or otherwise treat water. No time at all to make sensible decisions wrt food.

never thought i could feel sorry for ice but i … yeah i still don’t. fuck ‘em up philly.

A lot of this is coming form the churches these Conservatives are raised in. It's an almost ubiquitous belief amongst white evangelicals that Christians who don't believe exactly as they do are not "real" Christians. This is carried into their politics where they call Dems demonic.

this is all downstream of the idea that some americans are more real than others. it’s a manifestation of the basic and fundamental logic of authoritarian populism. we will not heal ourselves until we understand that this kind of thinking - and this kind of rhetoric - is anathema to any free society

IF we had a real opposition leader fighting fascism, they would: tell the truth, expose the fascists’ tactics, mobilize resources, unite the resistance, make it undeniable—accountability absolutely coming when they’re in power The brilliant @fieldsmeyer.com wrote the powerful words I want to hear

If they are doing this to white people in broad daylight imagine what they are doing to non-white people in detention facilities.

a distinction that I first noticed at the memorial in Paris to the “martyrs of the Deportation,” which focused on those deported for political speech instead of those deported for being Jews: There’s a difference between being treated as an enemy of the state and being treated as an animal.

Completely agree with @miawong.bsky.social here. There were multiple videos out of Villegas Gonzalez’s murder the same day he was killed that contradicted ICE’s claims. bsky.app/profile/gbro...

Just found out this dude’s store is called Dreamhaven Books. dreamhavenbooks.com

I want every Democratic Senator to read the speech @fieldsmeyer.com wrote that he hoped Schumer would give last night (bsky.app/profile/fiel...). I just emailed my Senators; here's a link to the text I used if folks want to crib: docs.google.com/document/d/1... #AbolishICE

The National Guard is still patrolling DC, carrying handguns & long rifles, patrolling vibrant community spaces in packs to intimidate residents, especially Black residents, of the city. Keep that in mind as you see the videos of them handing out pizza & coffee in MN.

Events like Minneapolis are tentpoles around which to organize defections from the regime – even quiet opponents into more vocal ones. Losing the NBA players' association, the WSJ editorial board, lots of movie stars, and even some Republican members of Congress is a not good for them.

Just watched the world premiere of Once Upon a Time in Harlem. In 1972 William Greaves filmed Harlem Renaissance luminaries bearing witness, sparring, reciting poetry, jubilating. The film was finally complete 50 years later. It's a masterpiece and a gift. www.onceuponatimeinharlemfilm.com #sundance

Goddamn this is a jeremiad

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

I've been saying to friends for a few months that the more I study authoritarianism in other countries, the more concerned I become that the CBS story is the sleeping giant here. The process has been a simmer (people inside the network have spoken out in real-time) but don't mistake slow for safe.

TikTok was sold to the Ellison family. trump supporters who are trying to control the narrative on media. It was never about China obtaining our information. It was always about allowing the Ellison family and trump supporters to control the media. Boycott TikTok. The Ellison family is dangerous

This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk. Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared. Well, here’s a link: georgetown.box.com/v/Vladeck-IC...

A number of responders were quite opposed to the idea of giving ridealongs to The Atlantic (I understand their frustration with the outlet). But I drove these guys around for two hours and they witnessed abductions, confrontations with the public, tear-gassings. The lesson: let the world see.

This is a really incredible piece. Share it widely 🎁https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/2026/01/minneapolis-uprising/685755/?gift=C-rzmQ8PsUHt15odxTKJDn7xrpPNxSpotkNz_P27oI0

there is no battle over the truth, what is this ridiculous framing there is video. everyone can see it

Can we steal them?

"Every day I have to marvel at what the billionaires and Fox News pulled off. They got working whites to hate the very people that want them to have more pay, clean air, water, free healthcare and the power to fight back against big banks & big corps." Reagan campaign: Ailes was our "Michelangelo"

Lot of replies saying MAGA’s nothing but astroturf. There is astroturf—O’Keefe’s part of it—but no, it’s not limited to that. I’ve been reporting on it 10 years. Let’s not respond to MAGA’s delusions w/ our own. The fascist threat is real & big; the truth is everyday people democracy can be bigger.

The fact that every right winger with influence screams "who is paying for all of this" tells you exactly how awash in cash they all are, and how much they rely on that to keep their movement afloat.

ICE has sent abductees from Minneapolis to a concentration camp in New Mexico. minnesotareformer.com/2026/01/22/r...

Each time all typos are successfully edited from a book, the entire universe is immediately replaced with a new universe containing a version of the book that has at least one typo.

If ICE was going door to door to sign everyone up for free healthcare, Schumer and Jeffries would have been stopped them already.

On tonight’s White House agenda: Trump and guests will get a private screening of MELANIA, the documentary about the First Lady, @thr.com reports. Attendees include Apple CEO Tim Cook, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy, Mike Tyson, per the article.

One of the many horrific ironies is that they took it from Medicaid, the largest funder of physical and behavioral health for survivors of gun violence, and put it into ICE, which is now perpetrating gun violence in our communities. open.substack.com/pub/ruthzaka...
