🚨 NEW 🚨 The Men Making Millions Selling Pepper Spray To ICE Safariland, owned by billionaire Warren Kanders, remains the number one supplier of pepper spray and tear gas to ICE and CBP, via a large federal distributor run by a MAGA-aligned former Marine. www.forbes.com/sites/thomas...

"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.

Michigan folks: Ypsilanti Community Schools confirm several parents taken into custody by ICE. Not in my fuckin town.

In response to announcement that he will be a new CBS contributor, Andrew Huberman tweeted “I’ve always gone issue-by-issue on health & science, spoken to experts w/a range of takes & presented where I see the center of (data) mass pointed. I’ll do the same with @CBSNews”. In Sept he posted this:

This is the attitude & approach that won World War II

ICE sightings in Ypsilanti, MI:

Genuinely interesting. Kristi Noem is snitching that Stephen Miller is the one who made up the bullshit about Alex Pretti. It would be genuinely useful if Congress can get her to admit that he has been dictating ALL OF THIS just like he dictated the murderboats. www.axios.com/2026/01/27/t...

if a can of axe body spray mated with an episode of joe rogan these weirdos would be their babies

getting feds to say shit like this on camera with their face exposed is NUTS -- you can not reform this agency, everyone involved must go, there is no practical way to root out all of these guys

If nothing else I enjoy laughing at her. this is not someone who's ever run any kind of newsroom or done any kind of reporting. she learned to speak billionaire and that's how she's there.

brb jumping into my time machine to show this to a Trump supporter five days ago

"Once in the old neighborhood, when he was seven or eight, he’d fallen off his bike, his helmet splitting cleanly in half like a cantaloupe. He showed the halves to all the neighbor kids as a way to warn them to never ride without one." - @kristenradtke.bsky.social www.theverge.com/policy/86856...

this morning in the Mpls suburbs: "There were 5 Ice vehicles staged around this neighborhood and the elementary school, they seem to be watching to bus stops during school kid pick up and drop off. I believe they are trying spook kids/parents so vulnerable parents would expose themselves"

christ, what? comparing this to active war?

Downfall Bovino Edition. You're welcome.

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...

The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents border patrol officers at the National Border Patrol Council, calls on Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller to resign or be fired

Until Miller’s gone these are just gestural purges to sanitize and consolidate his reign of terror.

More frames from clashes near 26th & Nicollet following the k*lling of Minneapolis resident and VA intensive care Nurse Alex Jeffrey Pretti involving federal agents. 1/2 1.24.2026 📍South Minneapolis

"DHS has suspended Gregory Bovino’s access to his social media accounts effective immediately," CNN reports

BYE BITCH

ICE is changing tactics in Maine: "Now, the volunteers in Maine say federal agents have started showing up at their homes and intimidating them or threatening arrest. Some of them, masked and wearing tactical gear, have issued stark warnings not to follow them." www.pressherald.com/2026/01/23/i...

Footage of Bovino fleeing Minneapolis

“After you murder someone you should send a series of cryptic letters in some sort of unbreakable code. That’s the responsible — I would say, the fatherly — thing to do.”

Breaking WSJ: Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino will imminently leave Minnesota along with some of his agents, according to administration officials familiar with the matter. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

Probably sick of their meals tasting of piss.

I am just gonna say it, these guys are completely emasculated by the knowledge that they have been out-organized by a group that is significantly made up of women, and all the bullshit call of duty nonsense is cope for their wounded egos bsky.app/profile/jeet...

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment. Excellent article!

Two weeks ago this guy announced he was providing legal help to the agent who shot Renee Good. That's how quickly the winds are shifting.

Graham Linehan proves the point that trans liberationists have been saying from the start: If you'll permit dehumanising and stripping the rights of trans people, you will dehumanise and strip the rights of anyone on a long enough timeline.

I just...

This March 1965 Herblock cartoon about police violence against civil rights activists has added relevance today.

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

Wolves have a moment of silence for Alex Pretti, after seven seconds of silence several fans yell "FUCK ICE"

The @wsj.com in an editorial wrote today: "...Pretti attempted, foolishly, to assist a woman who had been pepper-sprayed by agents" According to the WSJ, it's "foolish" for a nurse to assist a person in medical distress. Incredible www.wsj.com/opinion/time... (gift link)

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

The hedging language used by outlets to cover their own asses has become worse than a professional embarrassment; it's contributed to why Trump, Noem and Bovino have been getting away with murder up until now.

Journalists need to ask, “What made Pettri a ‘suspect’?” He was ‘seized’ under the meaning of the Fourth Amendment, which requires *probable cause that he was committing a crime* MAKE THEM ARTICULATE THE BASIS FOR THE SEIZURE

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

Lord do I long to see this man behind bars for life

THEY CAN'T KILL US ALL

Two and half minutes. That’s all the time the CBS Evening News thought today’s events in Minneapolis were worth. Not even time to tell viewers what Alex Pretti did for a living. The winter storm got 8 minutes. NBC Nightly News spent 8 minutes, nearly half the show, on Pretti’s killing

JUST IN: In a new lawsuit, Minnesota officials say DHS mishandled evidence from today's crime scene and made "astonishing" law enforcement decisions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

so I went to r/climbing to check the reaction to Honnold free soloing Taipei 101 and the top post on the subreddit is a picture of Alex Pretti outdoors next to a rock face with the title “ICU nurse Alex Pretti, killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis today” it has 56000 upvotes

If you’d like to tangibly help Minnesota, let’s spread the word and donate where we can. This is FAR more impactful than doomscrolling or angry posting fueling someone else’s doomscrolling. No act of resistance is too small or insignificant.

just punched me right in the heart

These people cannot imagine being such a part of a community that the bicycle shop mourns you. It's as alien to them as a language they don't speak.
