I need folks to understand this. The idea that local police forces will intervene at scale against ICE is a utopian fantasy totally disconnected from how policing has always worked

"you don't need hormones to be trans" does not comfort any trans person who has been denied access to hormones and only serves to speak over their needs and frame them as responsible for wanting to be comfortable in their own bodies

Every single time a story like this is reported, we must assume that there are many many more that do not.

They should have Ethan Phillips record like 400 hours of dialogue and he just never stops talking the whole game. You're trying to mine resources and quell discontent among the Maquis crew members and Neelix just keeps going, there's no soundtrack, just Neelix talking at you like Abe Simpson.

Pam Bondi: "There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime." Rep Lieu: "You just lied under oath." Bondi: "Don't you ever accuse me of a crime." Lieu: "This is all on videotape... I’m showing you evidence." #OpDeathEaters #EpsteinCoverup #EpsteinFiles

When i say the Atlantic deserves neither your money nor your respect, i also mean their newsletters, their crosswords, and all their podcasts the same issue launching their anti-trans hate as a cover article deprioritized ones about poor pandemic readiness and harms of anti-black discrimination

ICE invasion made an epic use case for anarchists and abolition.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

To all ICE agents:

Media moved on because for one hour Trump pinky-swore he was going to do his genocide in a nicer way, and every day since the people in Minnesota are showing us it looks like a war zone

When Daddy Hasbro forces Wizards to make Harry Potter Magic the Gathering cards, they're gonna deal with a reckoning. They know how supportive and inclusive of trans people (and trans) the MtG community is, but they'll be forced to act against their interests regardless. Punish them accordingly.

hey why do WASP parents get to have all the fun of having their every anxiety catered to by sweeping legislation? i want a turn! every american should have to submit proof that they aren’t mad at me any time i accidentally stand in the wrong place while waiting for my order at a restaurant

I believe Walz, Frey, Witt, O'Hara genuinely want the ICE surge out of MN and Minneapolis. Some of them genuinely might want all of ICE out for good. At the same time, the ICE surge is not an existential threat to their jobs/careers. The appearance of disorder in the streets is. An uprising is.

coming up with a new idea called "driving like shit olympics". no more bland, unprovable statements like "california drivers are the WORST" allowed. whichever state wins every 4 years gets a moonshot-sized public transit investment to get those fuckers off the road

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left. It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

lmk when the local DFL caucuses get this lit, i might just start going

Seen in SF Bay area:

We're gonna have to get tougher now. We're gonna have to take it to the next level. More people out on the street more people calling the senators and Congress people. More people texting doing what we do. More people exposing the Epstein files. Photographing ice. Put it on here. Double it up.

Fuck ICE in the Chat?

Don't let Republicans and transphobes re-write history when they're the ones who've been orchestrating a genocide with a cabal of pedophiles all along. Trans people, yet again, were the canaries in the coal mine, and everyone just looked and said, "huh, there's a dead bird in there".

So an odd thing here is that if you say "an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume" your point is to communicate "it is not really Batman" but the problem is that the real Batman, within the fiction of the comic book "Batman", is also, literally, an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume

This does NOT mean we sit them out. We must show up in overwhelming numbers. If they are going to try to steal the election, let's make it fucking hard for them, ok?

Justice department accidentally dropped a bomb. It's been scrubbed from the site but screenshots live forever. Content warning: explicit description of CSA

I'm visiting yet another business that has a bouncer posted and its doors locked, in case you believe there's any kind of vibe shift in Minneapolis after Bovino was thrown under the bus. They're still terrorizing us, and still being cowards about it.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Exactly right. Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign. Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE. Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them. Every possible angle.

Sen Chris Murphy warns Dems: "If people don’t see us fighting on something as existential as whether we condone the federal government murdering our own citizens, there will be a mass withdrawal from politics altogether." On the pod, Murphy lays it all out so well: newrepublic.com/article/2057...

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years. These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

because they don’t deserve our fear

My note to the US citizens: You know, just because you don't live in one of these cities that the Thugs are invading, you should not ignore the fact that this is occurring. People are disappearing, people are getting shot. This is wrong. Very wrong The country that you live in is under attack. 1/

my Blackest opinion is that the presumption of conflict between "America has a long and deeply rooted history of violence" and "we can and should fight against today's version of that, as did those who came before us" is less a philosophical debate about how to treat the past and more a skill issue

WTF happened to the Epstein files? Full release was required December 19 by federal law. Today, 99% are still undisclosed. Initially, there were rolling releases. Now, nothing in weeks. REMEMBER: The DOJ said the review of these documents was complete in JULY.

Deporting children with cancer. Using a 5-year-old as bait. Shooting moms. ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.

Tyler O'Ryan Gramlin, 32, of Borden, IN is a Border Patrol Agent who has traveled from state to state committing extreme violence. On Jan 21, 2026 Gramlin emptied a can of pepper spray directly in the face of a prone protester at point-blank range in Minneapolis #MPLS #OneOfOursAllOfYours #UnmaskICE

Renee Good was shot 3 times by ICE The first two shots were non lethal. One to her left forearm & another to right breast The final shot entered the left side of her head & exited the right side He didn’t have to keep shooting. He was out of the vehicle’s path before the kill shot That’s murder

Call your reps. Let them know that if they vote for ICE funding, you will not vote for them ever again. Representatives need to feel the heat. NO on ICE funding. No excuses.

What did Russell Vought say about government workers before doge started? “We want them hate going to work we want to demoralize them and make them want to leave”. Ok, we all want ICE to hate their jobs and not want to go to work. Blast whistles, lots and lots whistles.

there are only about 20,000 ICE agents in the country and most of them can't fight, aim, or handle light criticism without crashing out. there are hundreds of millions of us. those odds are in our favor if we keep fighting.

Holy shit. Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

I don't understand US peeps going on about the Epstein files. You all know he's guilty already. He's got secret police kidnapping, attacking and killing people already. He's effectively resigned you from NATO and is threatening a war against the rest of us. It's not distraction.

Today, it’s not your vote that determines whether the government brutalizes you or sends officers to your door. It’s your neighbors’ vote. If you’re ok with this happening to Minnesotans, don’t get comfortable. You won’t be exempt for long. In the end, a lawless administration comes for everyone.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

🚨Just clipped from a live feed: This is what they are do. They throw a couple of flash bangs, toss some tear gas and snag a sacrificial lamb. Wash, rinse, repeat. Thanks to Status Coup for freezing their asses off to film tyranny in the USA under DJT in 2026.

A mark of the strength of post-Trump reconstruction will be whether there we will impose legal consequences on these murderers.
