Highlights from this crazy story we just put out- - One of the incarcerated women has a lawyer who has spent his time misgendering his client to random social media users. - The government's case relies on an "antifa expert" who recently suggested support for drone striking weed smokers in the US.

Somebody pls primary this clown.

A public servant was detained by ICE. Masked police kidnapping a City Council employee who works every day for New Yorkers doesn’t make us safe. Trump’s deportation agenda was never about safety. It’s about scapegoating immigrants for problems caused by billionaires. Free our neighbors. Abolish ICE.

Six-byline alert: 🚨 “.. laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status to fool adversaries into dropping their guard, then attacking and killing them. That is a war crime called ‘perfidy.’” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/01/12/u...

I wish them the trauma they cause to others. I hope they wake to a head of fear every morning, I hope their hands shake as they grip their guns. I hope the stress, drinking, drugs takes decades off their lives. I hope their wives/families leave them. And I hope trump never pays them.

I am at a vigil for Renee Good at St Mark's in the Bowery. They handed out cards bearing the names of people killed by ICE in this second Trump era. There are a lot of cards.

What if non consensual sexual imagery and leaking of sexual images without consent was illegal and we framed laws on consent not on the apparatus used to violate consent

Fascism at its finest.

it's not just that they're supporting out-of-town ICE shock troops against their own community; it's that they're being paid with money you would rather have spent on buses and schools and parks and social services. I feel like in the year of our Mamdani 2026 that's an argument we can push harder

I'm not sure most people have any idea how often the answer to "why can't I get the municipal service I want" is "because the police union sends their heavies to budget meetings" I heard WILD stories from a friend who was the arts rep to a midsized town's council. the cops basically had veto power!

Good for these kids.

Dan Ceisler was sworn in as sheriff of Bucks County last week. He confirmed upon taking office he would withdraw from ICE's 287(g) program this month: www.phillyburbs.com/story/news/l... This was one of the defining election results in November: boltsmag.org/sheriff-of-b...

new york city is Real America. los angeles is Real America. chicago is Real America. minneapolis is Real America. seattle, portland, detroit etc etc. sick of this framing that it's otherwise. shut the fuck up

If this person who burned a synagogue had cited the Quran in defending their antisemitic attack, we'd be reading dozens of news stories about Islamic extremism. Since he cited the Book of Revelation, the media really needs to connect this to extremist forms of white Christianity.

I understand the hesitance for Dems to adopt Abolish ICE as a nonnegotiable in their platforms because “should there be a racist, unaccountable paramilitary organization that kills liberals” polls very well with people who will never understand any circumstances vote Democratic

I don’t even know how they could more forcefully assert that they don’t care about human lives — but ESPECIALLY don’t care about the lives of the poor and minorities most affected by industrial pollution — than to rewrite the cost-benefit calculations to explicitly set the value of those lives to 0.

🚨"We've got a Honduran here" A SWARM of Border Patrol agents violently invaded a Minneapolis gas station—crushing car windows, tackling and brutalizing drivers, and taking several. We've confirmed at least one of them was U.S. CITIZEN Lalo Rios Meza.

A very helpful tool!

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.

one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny

For whatever reason I have a ton of friends all over Minneapolis. Folks I’ve known for over 35 years. Which means I know their cadence and their concerns, their emotional reactions to things and their skill as observers. And what they are describing to me is a horror movie -

Today we commit to making New York affordable not just for artists, but for making art. We are proud to name Rafael Espinal as Commissioner of MOME as we stand with union workers and usher in a new golden age of NYC creativity.

If ICE is gone tomorrow, there is no negative net loss to our society. Abolishing it is unreasonable? What do they do that serves us? Their purpose is to run around snatching people up & shooting. Like that's it. We'll be cool without that.

Breaking MS NOW: The Justice Department has fired the No. 2 official in the U.S. Attorney's office for the Eastern District of Virginia after he declined to lead the controversial prosecution of former FBI Director James Comey, according to multiple people briefed on the matter.

Still can't get over how Apple and Google removed the ICE app that alerted people that ICE was in the their community, but won't remove an app that has an AI tool that creates 'nonconsensual sexualized images of women and CHILDREN'

ICE rammed into a car at 34th and Park And then began to question the immigration status of U.S. Citizen Latino’s they crashed into. They also deployed chemical irritants into the eyes of the press. Abolish ICE now.

The official explanation they’re apparently going with here is that they aren’t 100% convinced that breathing soot and ozone is actually bad for you.

NEW: GoFundMe strictly bans fundraisers for “the legal defense of financial and violent crimes,” yet is currently running one “to help pay for any legal services” for the ICE agent who killed Renee Nicole Good. Its conflict is not even the least bit contestable.

And so was Laura Ingraham’s in 2016.

CBS buried an interview with a 25 year police veteran who clearly explains why ICE’s killing of Renee Good in Minnesota was unlawful and unjustified—just like they did with CECOT. So I’m airing it. This is the danger of billionaire owned media and censorship under the Trump regime.

This is a good example of the way that top-down approaches to AI in higher ed can't even imagine "no AI use" as an informed, pedagogically sound position. I DO want to understand AI, and student use of it, better, but it doesn't automatically follow that I'll want to use it in my classes as a result

Last week, Austin PD called ICE to turn in a woman from Honduras and her US-born 5 year-old daughter. They only knew about them because the woman called 911 for help with a domestic disturbance. She needed help and they handed her over to ICE. The police don’t care about protecting you.

“Gay/trans panic” was literally an effective legal defense for I don’t know how long. We don’t tell men they aren’t allowed to be afraid; we enshrine their fear.

Except men ARE allowed to express fear. A man just shot a woman in the face for existing and half the country is rushing to explain that he was afraid of her and therefore justified in murdering her.

Oh, I see we’re doing “men are punished for expressing emotion” again, instead of the truth, which is that men and women are both punished harshly for expressing emotion, it’s just *which* emotions get punished that’s different. Your average man has zero curiosity about women’s experiences.

NYSNA nurses go wild as Mayor Zohran Mamdani arrives at the picket line in Washington Heights @thecity.nyc

Yes, ICE is a Gestapo-like police force compromised largely of white supremacists who were unable to obtain jobs in traditional law enforcement. But so many of the anti-ICE people I talk to are like the worst wine moms . I have never felt more politically homeless.

The nonprofit Trevor Project received a $45 million gift from billionaire MacKenzie Scott at the end of 2025.

Another thing Walz could do is lift his return to office order.

ICE targetted a white queer legal observer in the Twin Cities. They said "havent you learned? this is why we killed that lesbian bitch." they called this person "it" and smashed her face into the ground and tried breaking her ankles. They also broke the hand of a queer person earlier this week.

Bloody hell

Anything less than abolishing ICE is unacceptable. I don't want to hear people talk about training these motherfuckers or throwing more money at them. The entire institution needs to be permanently disbanded. Do not let politicians sell you on anything less.

The feds are not only blocking Minnesota from investigating a murder that happened in Minnesota, but they are blocking a federal investigation as well. They are trying to bury this.

Solving antisemitism by *checks notes* making a Jewish woman their scapegoat and target.

This headline is blatant misinformation. One guy quit because of Adler’s “anti-Zionist” program and zero people noticed or cared. The Board then acted against Adler and Randa, the whole festival collapsed and 4 board members quit rather than fix the mess they made. This upheaval is solely theirs.

sounds like a plan.

We want to be absolutely clear: If you are sick, please do not delay getting medical care, regardless of whether we are on strike. We invite you to come join us on the strike line after you've gotten the care you need. We are out here so we can provide better patient care to you!
