Haven't checked out the #Sinners syllabus yet? Well, w/ a record of 16 Oscar nominations, it's high time to do so! bsky.app/profile/disc...

Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS. ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion. This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

ICE-Gestapo have now changed policy to allow their murderous agents to illegally enter homes without a judicial warrant. I repeat once again, they aren’t law enforcement, they are a domestic fascist terrorist group that should’ve been abolished long ago.

are they not monsters?

Here’s the report www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

How is a 5 year old a dangerous person???

I try to avoid hyperbole when it comes to Trump policies, but this is absolutely frickin’ insane—on about eleventy different levels. Massive, systemic Fourth Amendment violations because … reasons.

look what they’re doing to my city. apologies for the camerawork

The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

Your regular reminder that Republicans in Congress approve of what the President is doing.

Belarus has arrested several HAM radio hobbyists and is threatening them with the death penalty, extremely wild situation: www.404media.co/ham-radio-op...

The Don is making "an offer they can't refuse" threat which our entire media is now framing as "rules out use of force". bsky.app/profile/atru...

Donald Trump at Davos, probably : « You gimme what I want, nothin’ happens to your family. »

Mafia goon: Nice house you got here...it'd be a shame if something happened to it Media outlets: Mafia goon rules out use of force. Expresses regret at the mere thought of it

World-historical batshitness: "We probably won't get anything unless I decide to use excessive strength & force where we would be frankly, unstoppable. But I won't do that. Now everyone's saying 'oh good.' …I won't use force. All the United States is asking for is a place called Greenland."

Does Trump not fucken realize he’s standing insulting a room of people? Stunned silence and disgust.

Trump is making jokes about committing war crimes in the waters off Venezuela while the world’s wealthiest sit in silent surrender.

Russia is invading Europe and the president of the United States is ranting about the danger that "windmills" pose to the Western World.

Absolutely massive turnout at the ICE Rapid Response training in Pittsburgh tonight, hosted by Frontline Dignity. Over 500 people showed up, including dozens from out of county & out of state.

A brilliant speech by Canada's Mark Carney in Davos: "The old order is not coming back. We should not mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy...The powerful have their power. But we have something too — the capacity to stop pretending, to name reality, to build our strength at home & to act together."

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers. I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

Moulton: I have an idea for ICE funding: zero. That’s what ICE needs.

Crazy

A reminder how ICE treats priests.

I'm so tired of working through the apocalypse.

1. ICE has STOPPED PAYING for medical treatment for its 73,000 detainees ICE has not paid its bills to 3rd party providers since OCTOBER and the situation will likely persist for MONTHS, a Popular Information investigation reveals Meanwhile, critically ill ICE detainees are not receiving care 🧵

ICE is a secret police force. No warrants. No courts. No lawyers. And no appeals. People vanish in the night, not because they broke the law, but because the law no longer means anything. The knock on the door is the sentence.

Federal immigration agents forced open a door and detained a U.S. citizen in his Minnesota home at gunpoint without a warrant, then led him out onto the streets in his underwear in subfreezing conditions, according to his family and videos reviewed by The Associated Press.

We cannot normalize this federal occupation of Minneapolis. It is not normal to watch people abducted in front of our eyes—dragged from car windows, pulled from their homes, and children left without parents. This is not about immigration. It’s about unchecked cruelty.

BREAKING A federal judge STRIKES the words "United States Attorney" from Lindsey Halligan's signature and warns that he will refer her to disciplinary proceedings if she persists in calling herself one. Doc buff.ly/JvTKLlD Background buff.ly/Ay2iB6u

Quite the statement from the Prime Minister of Poland

lol. lmao.

Canada PM gets standing ovation at Davos as he warns of world order ‘rupture’

This

NYT: Federal prosecutors issued subpoenas to at least five Democratic officials in Minnesota, including Gov. Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis, ramping up the Justice Department’s investigation into their response to the immigration crackdown in the state.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland. And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

Would be amazing if European leaders would also start throwing out truth bombs like this. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Jack Smith is preparing for public testimony. That means evidence, timelines, and sworn answers...on the record. Facts don’t shout. They ACCUMULATE. And once they do...they don’t go away

A reminder that the same people screaming at Dems for talking about affordability & “kitchen table” issues today instead of fascism were screaming at Dems for talking about fascism instead of inflation & “kitchen table” issues a year & a half ago.

Rachel Maddow: The people, by and large, stand in opposition to Trump — his approval ratings have fallen through the floor & then down into the basement & then through the basement floor into the bedrock — He is just despised as a political leader in this country in almost unprecedented terms

Ellison: This is the essence of dictatorship. It’s the essence of it. And we’ve got to get over the idea that this couldn’t happen here. Not only could it happen here—it’s happening here.

I've harped on congressional war powers for a long time and we do need to fix all that, but threatening to invade Greenland while ranting at Norway about the Nobel Peace Prize and imposing trade sanctions on NATO is more the kind of thing you can only fix by not having a literally insane president.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

My turn with Ev.

Never thought I’d see this. Until I read project 2025.
