Immigration activists are celebrating new Virginia Gov. Spanberger’s decision to end state and local law enforcement partnerships with ICE

Three generations of law professors making history up is enough. Scholars spend decades researching and writing history with nuance and care. American law professors will take a couple of months to relearn all of science to explain why the world is, in fact, flat.

Christ, this (from Lizza's latest) is pretty fucking damning of...literally the entire media(?) What the fuck?

Covering this stuff tactically & reactively, focusing on "is this legal?" & "can he do this?" & "how will it work?" is important, but really beside the point. Enough. He's imposing fascism at home & destroying our most essential pillars of national security & world order abroad. The rest is noise.

this crystallizes why, despite truly heroic solidarity and activism, i can’t quite get in the “we’re going to win” mindset right now. the harm is so active and there’s so much violence we don’t even know about. people are being turned into ghosts.

We must unconstitutionally impose more taxes on Americans because the threat of illegal aggression against a heretofore American ally hasn't worked out as smoothly as we imagined.

They are kidnapping non-white people, regardless of status only to sort them out later, often not even taking them to the federal building but abandoning them beaten miles from where they were. And they are brutalizing witnesses, most of whom are white citizens who only have whistles and phones.

They nearly killed this woman. Then they went on national TV and tried to smear her.

So many great memes about this tragi-comedy. I plan to post many. ENJOY!

If a Democratic president had done something like this, Fox and the GOP would have turned Adriana Camberos into a household name à la Willie Horton or, yes, Hunter Biden. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/16/u...

There you have it; the Trump admin allows ICE lawyer James Rodden to stay on the job. His personal social media account praised Hitler, supported white nationalism, and said that America started going downhill the day that Lincoln was elected.

The Hmong community in America is here predominantly because they were our allies in the Vietnam War, and we lost so they had to leave their homes and move here.

NEW — ICE violence has spread well beyond Minneapolis, with agents landing in small cities like St. Cloud. I spoke with Alice Valentine, a local queer trans woman, who protested ICE on Monday and was pepper sprayed, beaten and jailed as a result, along with her girlfriend. This is Alice's story:

Because the media does not know how to frame what is happening, they keep referring to regular Minnesotans as protesters. But there is very explicit training that so many people done to learn how to be a constitutional observer. People are bearing witness to kidnappings, with phones and whistles.

1/ Ciji Graham was the mother of 2-year-old SJ, a sister to 9 younger siblings, a beloved friend. She's also the 7th case we’ve found of a pregnant woman in a state restricting abortion who died after being unable to access standard care. This is her story.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide. He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

The NYT has a new video analysis of Renee Good's shooting which is careful, accurate, and clear - he walked across the path of a moving car, then leaned in and shot her with his feet well clear of the vehicle. 1/

Meanwhile migrants are dying in ICE custody - 5 this year already. www.fox29.com/news/man-die...

If anyone was still pretending this isn’t just about excluding trans kids from public life, the Trump administration just opened a Title IX investigation into a Maine school district because a trans student is on a *co-ed* cheerleading squad.

And right on cue, Trump threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act. Trump and Stephen Miller are deliberately trying to cause the rule of law and civil order to collapse in Minnesota for a reason. This is that reason.

Breaking WaPo: The FBI executed a search warrant this morning at a Post reporter's home as part of an investigation into a government contractor accused of illegally retaining classified materials. 
It's highly unusual and aggressive for law enforcement to conduct a search on a reporter's home.

Net US immigration was zero or slightly negative last year, in important new estimates by @stanveuger.bsky.social et al. The loss of labor cut GDP growth by about 0.2 percentage points.

The Fed was designed to operate independently, insulated from political pressure, so that it can make tough decisions based on data and the long-term health of the economy, not the whims of any one president.

This is a corrupt, politically motivated attack on the Federal Reserve. The strict independence of the Fed has been paramount to the stability of the global economy for over a century, which will collapse if Trump moves to seize control of it.

What can history teach us about what happens when a populist strongman with an idiosyncratic taste for low interest rates undermines central bank independence?

it is not better today. it is worse. friends in federal detention for observing. friends maced and attacked. friends in car chases with ICE. please keep your eyes open and keep listening and taking whatever action you can.

ICE shoves protester in front of moving bus! #ICEhole #Resist #ICE #FuckICE #Pinks

TRUMP 2026: SHUT UP OR WE’LL KILL YOU

I see this take around from time to time and totally disagree. ICE just murdered a woman standing up to them. No Kings is among the largest protests in history. The complacency is coming from elites in media, business, universities, and the Democratic leadership

When Tom Homan says “Your rhetoric’s a disgrace” We HEIL [FART] HEIL [FART} Right in Tom Homan’s face To defy poor Tom Would surely be disgrace So we HEIL [FART] HEIL [FART] Right in Tom Homan’s face /1

Controversial counterpoint: don’t shoot babies

This seems to strongly suggest that the incoming president of UVA doctored his CV to the edge of outright dishonesty, and that the most recent changes came months before Jim Ryan was forced, as if they were made in anticipation in Ryan’s removal. augustafreepress.com/news/vanishi...

This is the way and every single Democrat should be on board. It won't get anywhere before the midterms, but it will make the midterms easier for Democrats to win and easier to take action on these promises once they do. Be the party of accountability. Own that space, starting now.

He once faced discipline over allegations he punched a 13-year-old. He’s now one of the officers approving felony charges in Chicago’s new bypass program, which allows police to file more charges without a prosecutor’s review.

Also, it's great that the bipartisan foreign policy diplomats & staffers are doing this. But I can't help but ask: Where the hell are George W. Bush & Barack Obama & Bill Clinton & yes, also Mitt Romney? Why aren't you in front of microphones all day, calling this out & demanding Trump's removal?

I can't say this loudly enough: THEY ARE TRYING TO NORMALIZE THE KILLING OF CIVILIANS FOR PARTICIPATING IN FIRST AMENDMENT PROTECTED PROTEST ACTIVITIES.

Another. Just doing the ones from MN

Timothy Ryan Gregg, 51, an ICE / HSI agent from Eagan, MN, was arrested in June 2025 for enticing a minor and production of child sexual abuse material. Gregg is a supporter of Donald Trump and his archived Parler profile is still online.

A reminder that the administration is attacking the rule of law both domestically and internationally.

Along with this being a total violation of both domestic law and international treaties requiring immediate impeachment & removal, this is an unbelievable shameful way to treat our closest allies who have died alongside us on the battlefield over many years.

🔥 sheryl crow calls out @govbilllee for intentionally letting kids go hungry

"...records show that none of ICE’s agents have ever been killed by an immigrant in the agency’s more than two-decade history. Instead, the leading cause of death by far among ICE officers is COVID-19. According to ICE’s data, the second leading cause of death is cancer linked to 9/11."

The deputy (a confirmed KKK member) raised his shotgun and pointed it at 17-year-old Ruby Sales. Daniels jumped in front of the shotgun and shoved Sales out of the way, taking the full shotgun blast to the chest. He died instantly. The deputy was acquitted by an all-white jury in Hayneville, AL.

REP. @aoc.bsky.social : “Trump, Vance, Bondi are engaged in one of the greatest cover-ups we’ve seen when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein and the protection of people in power or close to power.”

And senior Republican leaders who are not impeaching him now. The unprovoked invasion of our NATO allies is as cut-and-dried "impeach & remove immediately" as anything since WWII, aside from "incite an insurrection at the Capitol to steal an election." Total failure of Article I of the Constitution

Untrue. The universe is setting up for New England’s revenge for 1985

This is an "administrative warrant". It's not signed by a judge and is therefore unlawful. ICE agents carry stacks of these around in their cars and just fill them out on the fly. Make sure everyone knows what this looks like, as they have already started going door-to-door in some neighborhoods.

It would not surprise me if ICE ends up killing Episcopalian clergy, sadly. Episcopalian ministers go pretty hard in the paint for civil rights. The story of Jonathan Daniels, an Episcopalian seminary student, pushing Ruby Sayles out of the way of a KKK shotgun blast in Alabama comes to mind.
