As consumption of strawberries and blueberries has skyrocketed among American families, so too have berry prices. But don't blame the farmers! New from David Silverberg: ambrook.com/offrange/cro...

There is no easier or more important political position to take than to do everything possible to stop this. It will change our society forever, and Democrats are going along with it.

“People want a perfect candidate ☹️”

Baltimore has seen historic reductions in gun violence. But 2 recent troubling cases involving kids. A 3 yr old recently shot himelf in the ankle with a gun belonging to a 17 yr old. And overnight a 15 yr old girl was found fatally shot in a West Baltimore home wbaltv.com/article/teen...

A man coughed in my face today. There are essentially no COVID precautions left. “You do you” has replaced public health. They got what they wanted, and it’s still not enough. The anti-mask weirdos also need to harass you in public.

The partial reopening of Gaza’s southern Rafah crossing with Egypt has been marked by chaos and severe restrictions imposed by Israel.

NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship. Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”

In 2023, CBP killed a young Black girl that they imprisoned by incarcerating her and failing to provide the needed medical care for her sickle cell anemia You cannot reform this apparatus which kills people no matter which party is in charge Anadith Danay Reyes Alvarez, who was 8 years old

“Where are the kids shoveling for money? Back in my day we were outside” The same kids y’all threaten to shoot cuz they be in the neighborhood playing?? Those kids? Who get cops called on them for playing ball and riding bikes? Doh vex mi.

Hand warmers, coffee, food. this is what travel baseball moms hand out to kids and parents during early morning games. Shit they had laying around or someone drove to the Walmart 10 minutes aways and dropped $30. “BANKROLLING”.

no need to imagine. we have years of evidence already.

By the way, ICYMI the person who killed Alex Pretti has been a border patrol officer for 8 years. "More training" is not a solution to anything.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon. wapo.st/49Zqv1L

top three patterns on Ravelry rn are variations of the red “Melt the ICE” hat and a free crochet pattern for 5yo Liam’s bunny hat just went up

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

I am trying not to post on these events in this state of mind but: I hope people understand what the observers are doing is brave and dangerous.

If you are talking about training today, you are a mark.

they went to an emergency room seeking help for their 7 year old child. ICE arrested the 7 year old and her parents. the family is here legally. www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

Big Artemis II milestone! The crew is preparing to go into quarantine. This is a required, necessary step to launch. And a possible sign that the February 6-11 launch window might hold!

My kids have discovered Frozen. Pray for me.

ICE is sending these kids to the concentration camp in Dilley, Texas, where they're preparing to have so many children that they're opening a new school there. They're actively hiring teachers now. I reported on it last month. We have to get people out of there.

Incapable of understanding how "abolish ICE" was silly but arresting 5 year olds is public policy

After multiple members of the Cabinet posted about the arrest of Nekima Levy Armstrong, a civil rights attorney and Minneapolis activist, the White House shared a doctored photo of her crying, appearing to make a mockery of them. trib.al/yq9erfI

Does he know or is this a season one of The Crown situation?

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

Not only are Democrats not using policy levers, they're not even really using the bully pulpit. How have Schumer and Jeffries not been on the ground in Minnesota? How are there not press conferences this am yelling about a 5-year-old kid being kidnapped, used as bait, and separated from his family?

Glambot director Cole Walliser is under fire for his responses to a possible customer inquiring about the camera for a wedding: Walliser reportedly doubted the woman’s ability to pay for his services.

Seems bad.

People who were actually enslaved believed that chattel slavery would end one day. I'm sorry but to me that suggests that you [who are not enslaved in 2026] can also imagine an end to the current horrors.

Going door to door asking people if they’re aware of the upcoming showtimes for @28yearslater.bsky.social at their local movie theater.

The New York Times is failing its readers when it minimizes 1) Child porn generated via Grok 2) The humans, not Grok, created it and 3) The "outrage" is not ambient anger but a demand for accountability. youtube.com/shorts/kkuC-...

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

Bring the war home:

The vice president’s comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith, writes digital editor John Grosso.

The shooting in Minnesota is a reminder that while authoritarian governments may justify abuses of power by directing them at scapegoats or vulnerable populations, the goal is ultimately to deploy them against anyone they wish to www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
