You’re asking too much of him, Kevin.

Members of the American Indian Movement and the Many Shields Warrior Society are patrolling the streets of Minneapolis.

The number of people currently in ICE custody is now over 73,000, the most in history. Your reminder that ICE is a for-profit industry and the companies profiting are huge donors to the politicians who voted to continue funding ICE.

Concentration camps: stories of as many as 50 people to a cell — men and women in some cases — with no windows and limited airflow, a single camera-monitored toilet, aluminum blankets, no showers and poor quality food.

Concentration camps lead to disease and death.

I know everyone here knows it but just to repeat for everyone *else*... Nothing has changed on the ground. It's still as awful as before. Don't believe this man. And we won't stop protecting our neighbors.

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword

Judge Dana Douglas's dissent sets up the unusual circumstances of this appeal, the stakes of this case, and the error of the majority very well from the start. "Straining at a gnat, the majority swallows a camel."

BREAKING: A 5th Circuit panel has backed ICE's mass detention policy, a decision that clears the way for the administration to lock up people who are in immigration proceedings It's a 2-1 ruling Majority: Jones (Reagan), Duncan (Trump) Minority: Douglas (Obama) s3.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

You … umm.. wanna cite a source there champ?

In case people aren’t getting this, this whole thread appears to be lifted from my published work on the topic, complete with phrasing I used in my own work. None of that is cited. also anti fascism was not “an idea” in 1936, people had fought and died for it in Italy and Germany.

St. John’s is playing some serious defense against UConn.

I do want to shout-out my fellow sociologists, who have collectively created a discipline so woke that not a single one of our introductory textbooks can make it past Florida's censors. Great work everyone.

ICYMI: 950+ Google workers signed a petition demanding that executives "disclose all contracts and collaboration with DHS, CBP, and ICE, and to divest from these partnerships." www.nytimes.com/2026/02/06/b...

Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved. DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.

Just unspeakably cruel

gotta abuse government antitrust review to ensure Larry Ellison can buy every media company under the son in order to construct state television Next up: Matt Stoller quoted in Politico saying this is a good faith example of the administration's populist monopoly busting bonafides

With alt-text:

Blumenthal: ICE and CBP are out of control. The practices of this agency have to be completely overhauled. It’s like a corporation in bankruptcy—either dissolved or reorganized. They’re morally bankrupt, legally bankrupt, and politically bankrupt.

genuinely unbelievable to me that Shapiro — a genuinely malign figure who has used his large platform to spread hate and misinformation — gets treated as a Respectable Commentator.

I wrote about how the women Epstein and co victimized have been minimized and ignored as individuals even in popular discourse about the very abuse they endured—and how the legal system has punished them and other women, not helped them, for daring to come forward. spitfirenews.com/p/even-the-m...

I’m glad I read that whole BS thread about “talent” and AI before it was deleted.

I am done with collaborationist bullshit

The racism on view in that video Trump posted (and has now taken down, having bent the knee to woke cancel culture) is relevant because it's the same racism that is animating the anti-Somali federal occupation of Minneapolis and will animate the surge of anti-Haitian feds into Springfield, OH.

I’m sorry but I have to push back on this: They were designed originally to be concentration camps. They have been a hotbed for abuse and neglect since their inception. This is not unique to Trumps governance, this is the reality of the US immigration system.

The inspector general is investigating whether ICE’s surveillance is legal. Even if this doesn’t result in any changes it will likely result in more details about how these systems work and that will hopefully be useful: www.404media.co/inspector-ge...

Every time I re-read Trump v. United States, it feels like getting hit in the head with a mallet.

Imagine being the international Olympic committee and saying yeah, we’re not really into winners

DHS has been posting Nazi memes for months. None of this is an accident.

Giving any energy to who posted it doesn’t matter. It was done that’s all that needs to be said and understood.

We don't have to share the impending articles debating whether or not the monkey video is racist. We don't have to argue with anyone who minimizes the video as a distraction. We can literally do anything else with our time. Be handsome Be strong Fuck ICE

I’m not waiting for an apology or any of the GOP/MAGA to denounce it. I could care less what they think. Pretty much all of them feel the same way.

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Oh, were there other, less racist things, senator?

Cops were frequently getting caught planting drugs in 2017 because body cameras were new and many of them didn't understand how the technology worked. When cops hit "record" it saved the 30 seconds from *before* they hit the button. Eventually, they figured it out.

I am a one issue voter and that issue is Consequences For Motherfuckers

What I appreciate is him and everyone else just letting them be kids.

Texas handled LSU tonight.

They're trying to tell us that they always get what they want. That there is nothing so hideous that they won't do it, even if it's kidnap a five year old child and then, when they lose, really try even harder to make him suffer more. Fuck them.

I know that they will always do the cruelest thing and the most racist thing, but the extent to which these particular fuckers will also do the stupidest thing. Fire up the phones. Make every fucking member of the GOP own this. Fuck them.
