“.. In the last four months alone, immigration officers have fired on at least nine people in five states and Washington, D.C. All of the individuals targeted in those shootings were, like the woman killed on Wednesday, fired on while in their vehicles.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/01/07/u...

There are enough people who want things to be different to stop all of this.

there is no reason for ICE to exist. immigrants aren’t doing anything wrong by trying to live and work and provide for their loved ones. I don’t care how people got here. if they want to be here that’s good. leave them alone.

What ICE was up to in Minnesota before they murdered a woman

It is now confirmed from multiple sources that ICE shot a legal observer dead on Portland in Minneapolis between 34th and 33rd street. The victim is dead

CBP just shot a woman "in the face" as she attempted to drive away in Minneapolis. Unconfirmed reports are that she's dead.

What a distillation of the Trump-Vance-Rubio legacy. Young woman in Michigan says "this is not just a foreign issue, it's our tax dollars being used to commit these war crimes," referring to Venezuela. …Then police arrest her, on camera, for "obstructing" & "failure to obey."

"In my first 100 days I will begin an expensive reclamation process of Lake Timmycaca, formerly Hamilton's largest inland sea. Mister Horton, Reclog That Drain!" Waiting for a candidate brave enough to say this.

I think the AI angle of this is obscurant. It doesn’t matter that grok is “an AI” whatever you take that to mean. Suppose X hired a team of guys to photoshop the clothes off of women and children whenever anyone asks. That’s functionally identical what happening here. It’s not complicated.

Not to detract from the observation over a sloppy headline, but the reason we have 100% tariffs on an #EV made in China, is to protect these fuckers pimping planet killers.

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

Should actually just be The Law

“Agree or disagree with X, but” - is always from someone who agrees with it

The people demand a commemorative plaque! #HamOnt www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

George Conway, Bill Kristol, Rick Wilson and those guys are dragging the Democratic Party to the right because all that matters is that you despise Trump. Even if everything you stood for over twenty years lead to Trump. You just gotta be Never Trump or Used to Be Trump. It’s embarrassing

Israel is barring 30 humanitarian organizations The world watches & enables this collapse of humanity Global institutions & govts continue to fail in their responsibility, allowing Palestinians to be subjected to decades of violence, terrorism, deprivation, & death in full view of the world

This is why they want us talking about day care scams.

I'm against this

Suspending Doctors Without Borders is definitely a thing healthy countries do

There’s a funny Politico story showing that the latest polling on AI shows 80-20 in favor of heavy regulations, an absolute slam dunk platform, but Dems are worried about not winning back mask-off tech CEO donors www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Wishing all my friends a safe and dry 2026

It's incredible to me that so many people didn't see her as an obvious engagement bait huckster from the very start.

I hereby order content creators back to work I need to consume

Had to look up what day it is. Saturday fyi

oh shit has anyone heard about this

Obscene

Big day for dads with pocket knives

wait wait wait before we go on raving about global news pls know that they would NEVER have pubbed it if they knew about the bari weiss takedown

Doug Ford's government uses a lot of "D" words to justify their actions. But they're undermining the most important “D” word of them all - democracy. #onpoli #ontpoli (Totally forgot to post this yesterday when it was published, but here's a gift link to my latest in The Spec: tinyurl.com/533jm9rm)

(nobody tell them this was basically an accident)

You know how sometimes people will make sensationalist claims to the FBI for the fame and clout of them coming out six years later in a report no one was sure would ever be publicly available

Whenever I read "sources familiar with [so-and-so]'s thinking" in an article I automatically assume we're talking about a powerful telepath

[first day as a shepherd] boss: where are you going? me: [pointing] star boss: what? why me: [shrugging] baby

if bari weiss had tried to do 9/11 there'd be three towers now

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

I feel like the next thing we'll find out is bari didn't even bother watching the whole segment

If you begin Star Trek: Voyager episode Spirit Folk at exactly 11:49:35 on New Year's Eve, Ensign Harry Kim will kiss a cow as the clock strikes midnight. Join in a very dumb annual tradition and start 2026 off on the right hoof.

Until today I literally haven't watched a 60 mins segment in 20 years 👍

You can very clearly see why someone whose job it is to protect war criminals would need this pulled from the airwaves: It’s visible proof the Trump administration is operating concentration camps.

THE CANCELLED 60 MINUTES SEGMENT DOWNLOAD BEFORE APPLE INTERFERES

“We can’t run this story on concentration camps without getting a comment from Heinrich Himmler”

Oh yeah Global TV (in Canada or by VPN) has the full uncut 60 Minutes story on its 60 Minutes rebroadcast. CBS must have sent them the original tape.

Chicago just sold off its unpaid ambulance bills to debt collectors, to pay for an 8% increase in the police budget

On Sunday, @60minutes.bsky.social pulled a segment on torture against US deportees in CECOT, El Salvador's mega prison. Curious what the story said? Read HRW and @cristosal.bsky.social's report: www.hrw.org/news/2025/11...

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:
