A sweeping proposal by the Trump administration to expand offshore oil and gas drilling could result in more than 4,000 oil spills in U.S. waters, according to a new analysis.

The death of Alex Pretti has been ruled a homicide, the Hennepin County medical examiner’s office said. Pretti was shot Jan. 24 during a chaotic encounter with federal immigration officers in Minneapolis. Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez were named as the two officers who fired at Pretti.

If Congress doesn’t act, the last nuclear arms control treaty between the U.S. and Russia will expire. It would pointlessly wipe out decades of diplomacy, and could spark another arms race that makes the world less safe. This piece is worth the read.

Minneapolis, MN - The vigil for Alex Pretti on E 26th and Nicollet currently. Every day I’ve visited, it noticeably grows. Several stores here are still closed for businesses; a few of them have switched into mutual aid centers and continue to provide hand warmers and the like.

Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year. Do not forget who is profiting from cruelty and human suffering.

My 13 yo and his cousins are reviewing the Epstein files and I feel like a terrible parent but it’s literally the world he lives in.

"The largest immigrant deportation and prison contractors in the US are expecting an epic payout this year: for every $1 that they donated to GOP campaigns in 2024, these private companies stand to reap more than $11,000 in increased annual revenue."

DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range. And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.

In 2013, I won a debate on Islam and peace at the Oxford Union. It went viral across the world, millions of views, and apparently an Emirati business then emailed the YouTube link to it to… Jeffrey Epstein. So now I’m in the damn DOJ files lol 🤦🏽‍♂️ Need to go take a shower now.

Maria Santay, a U.S. citizen and community observer, live-streamed masked ICE agents detaining her after they boxed in her car from all sides and smashed her window. Local police showed up and did nothing. She was denied access to a restroom, and forced to pee in the parking lot while handcuffed.

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

Amazon has cut a combined 28,000 jobs since October. Its CEO made $40M+ in 2024 UPS has announced 78,000 job cuts since last year. Its CEO made $24M. HP announced up to 6,000 layoffs in November. Its CEO made $21M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

22/ Hunter: SCC has confirmed there is a distinction between positive and negative rights. Today, s. 7 has been held to ONLY be a negative right, and this isn't the case for it to be held as positive. Now on to some cases talking about distinction. Specifically Bedford, which used a bike analogy.

21/ Fairburn: If state has no s. 7 obligation to CREATE the safety measure, the removal can't engage s. 7, is that the point? Hunter: Yes. Fairburn: Where does the state have an obligation to create safety measures? Hunter: SCC hinted as s. 7 positive rights. But, doesn't exist currently....

Fair point. I am pretty nervous as to what the Court of Appeal will decide given CycleTO's lawyers were grilled pretty good, though so were the Crown lawyers. We'll see what happens soon enough.

I don't take much stock in judicial responses from the bench as indicators of how they're leaning. I've had hearings where I thought the judges were totally on board, and lost.

Thanks for covering this, Devan. I'm listening to this too and keep shaking my head over the Crown's arguments. The bit about most appeals failing sounds like a good sign, but it does seem more difficult to read the three appellate judges' impressions than it was with Schabas.

You can hear, however, that the government is no longer arguing that 19 km of bike lanes cause traffic congestion or that removing 19 km of bike lanes will fix traffic congestion. They're only saying the self-evident point that taking space away from cars takes space away from cars.
