“Elizabeth has flu-like symptoms, while her mom has broken out in hives, Gutierrez said. Neither has been given any medicine or testing — a particular concern given the measles cases in the facility.”

So when Jesus crossed into Egypt what was that?

Martinez: "[I] sat in federal court and watched from 20 feet away as the border patrol agent who attempted to kill me testified at a hearing. Agent Charles Exum—Charles Exum, my attempted executioner was Charles Exum—I hope the government does not consider my use of his name here to be...doxxing."

Can comfirm from MN, as can anyone who lives here, that not a THING has changed except little Bovino isnt peacocking around the streets anymore. And there hasn’t been a third high-profile murder of a white person yet. But the gestapo attacks haven’t stopped. At all! bsky.app/profile/jyse...

we say this guy chases polls or the Baileys or whatever, but the reality is that he’s just misaligned with Democrats. the polling is clear that this is not what Democrats want. Chuck is an ideological, pro-cop centrist. He’s saying this because it’s his policy preference. It’s what he wants.

The "commonsense reform" this calls for is firing this so-called 'officer' / thug and getting thugs like him off our streets @schumer.senate.gov

Trump says this stuff surrounded by Republican leaders in Congress who are clutching the new MAGA merch he gave them. They love it. Shameful.

You don't reform this. You disband it, then you put it on trial.

Chomsky’s casual misogyny with Epstein says a lot about what counts as left wing. This is a guy who co-wrote an entire book about the press manufacturing consent without once mentioning patriarchy (or white supremacy). We need a definition of ‘left’ that doesn’t center the concerns of white men.

Elizabeth is a Columbia Heights fourth-grader who loves volleyball, learning English and giggling in the halls with her friends. She's been held in the Dilley Immigration Processing Center for nearly a month, and she and her mom have both fallen ill. sahanjournal.com/education/co...

More attention here, please.

This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US — and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

“.. Not a single Republican member of Congress showed up to the public forum .. on the violence inflicted by federal immigration agents, featuring testimony from the brothers of Renee Good ..” @newrepublic.com newrepublic.com/post/206100/...

This needs to be at the top of every story about the ICE body-cam thing. They already have body cameras.

Re: the discussions up and down my timeline today, let me resurface this essay I wrote up about 18 months ago, about the perils of idolizing creative people, up to and including me. Some of you may remember it, but many of you weren't following me then, so. whatever.scalzi.com/2024/08/15/p...

Alert to everyone working for this fascist administration: Quit your job.

This is someone at the absolute end of their rope, overwhelmed and beaten down by having to constantly choose between doing what she's told and doing what she knows is right. It's easy to say "she should just quit" but anyone who's been in that situation before knows how stressful it is.

I'm worried that the broader public isn't really understanding the Epstein Files. The problem isn't that everyone in the files is a secret pedophile, it's that all the people are corresponding with him because they *don't care that he's a pedophile*. It's a story of elite impunity.

Snowed In #oldknees

UPDATE!!! The Tribune Editorial Board endorsed the AlPAC candidate in my race partially because she left the IL progressive caucus because she supports unconditional military aid to Israel. In their eyes, it’s “a principled position for a principled Democrat.” www.chicagotribune.com/2026/02/03/e...

How did they redact abusers but not the victims? And they expect us to believe 40 nude photos went unnoticed? That’s exactly why people think the DOJ did this on purpose, to shame these women for coming forward.

If you're rich you get a tax cut, if you're not you have to work longer and harder. Populism! bsky.app/profile/atru...

Making it make sense: Epstein wasn't a global mastermind. He did not orchestrate a vast conspiracy that led us to today. He was a very rich man with connections to other very rich men. The shared culture of these men is that they have a right to dominate and abuse others without consequence.

This is legitimately the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen in the New York Post, which is saying something. This makes their incessant astrological coverage seem studied and informative. nypost.com/2026/02/03/u...

A multimillionaire thinks that paying down the national debt is so important that all the poors should get into the workforce earlier, work in it harder, and stay in it later to help pay it off. It's the only possible way to do it!

The indictment of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers revealed that they had a cache of weapons, entered the Capitol in military formation, and were prepared to harm lawmakers. They were all pardoned and no doubt many of them are now in ICE

I feel like getting the dudes who demand government issued girlfriends out of the gene pool might be one of those problems that solves itself

" states in which we've seen a high degree of fraud like California & New York" Outright fucking lie! Where is the media pushaback?

Every university that capitulated to Trump’s financial demands looks so fucking stupid right now

Dem leadership: changing this is a difficult process, you fool. You rube. You utter infant. Give us between $5 and $50 Mamdani, wiping grease off his hands: So it turns out there's a switch on this machine that puts it into either orphan-shredding mode or free school lunch mode. Just had to flip it

Christopher Nolan has cast a Genovian as Penelope and a Bostonian as Odysseus. And they will be speaking English, a language that did not exist in antiquity. This whole production is pure chaos.

this is a good one storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

My three-year-old was watching the Melania documentary when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why do the shitlibs hate the nice first lady so much?" And when I told her "Because the woke mind virus has made them knee-jerk liberal partisans," she started crying.

Bro, what do you mean the AI-based avatar is out-of-network?

one thing you can say about jeffrey epstein is that he simply loved emailing

The thing about all these men is they could date anybody. They're rich, they're famous. They could bag socialites or models or actresses or whoever. Instead they single out the most vulnerable women and girls they can find. They cannot form relationships with women who are their peers.

Incrementalists take it on the chin again. This is why they hate Mamdani. He's giving up the game that people in power HAVE POWER and don't solely exist to beg you for $5 every day. He's ruining the Democratic Party by showing voters that they have the power to do stuff instead of crouching in fear

Yes, Helen of Troy can only be played by Germans with blue eyes… because of… you know… historical accuracy.

A fun case study since there have been 72 million articles on the cold in the east and 4 on the warmth in the west

AOC on ICE: It’s our task to figure out how to claw back what has essentially supercharged this agency into becoming a relentless domestic paramilitary that is also a blank check to Palantir to create facial-recognition scans on U.S. citizens.

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.

My ancestors were looking for a better life in their own country when they suddenly got snatched onto some boats

the literal easiest way to have rural healthcare and get more doctors is to create a federal program where people get their med school paid for and then have to “serve” in rural or urban hospitals for 4-6 years for a reasonable wage. i’ve been wondering why this doesn’t seem to exist since 2008.

Judge Reyes begins by explaining who the plaintiffs are: not "killers, leeches, or entitlement junkies" as Kristi Noem suggested. They are a neuroscientist, a software engineer, a laboratory assistant, a registered nurse, and an economics major. All were facing deportation.

Judge Reyes starts with a comparison: George Washington versus Kristi Noem.

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.
