Don was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles.

This. Remember they cut healthcare for this.

We live in times that are both cruel and immensely stupid.

This is a scheduled pogrom

Attempted attack on Rep. Ilhan Omar tonight in Minneapolis.

This administration is cooked. Literally no one is scared of them.

Easily thousands roaring "ICE out!"

"[M]asked agents apprehended 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos in his driveway on Tuesday...[the agent] led him to the door and directed him to knock on the door asking to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home, essentially using a 5-year-old as bait.”

Perennial reminder of this excellent paper about how secret police forces are swamped with underachievers “We don’t want clever people. We want mediocrities.” (Ungated summary here ajps.org/2019/10/08/w...)

We are so far beyond "show us your papers." They don't want to see the papers. We are now into the "give us the names" stage of the occupation.

Leqaa Kordia has been held by ICE since her arrest in March 2025. Her attorneys say the White House is targeting the last remaining Columbia University protester in custody for her activism, using racism and procedural tricks to prevent her release. mondoweiss.net/2026/01/the-...

NPR and liberal media outlets pushing the "ICE not trained to deal with protests" angle instead of the "ICE is being filled with angry racists who are excited to shoot people" angle.

Names aren't classified, publishing a government higher-up's name is not "doxxing," and journalists are entitled to publish news, even if it is classified, as long as they don't break the law to get it. It's not the press's job to keep the government's secrets.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

If you allow the Nazi scum to kill people and get away with it they're going to keep doing it.

Is it bad that the richest man in the world re-posting Nazi propaganda on the website he owns?

Bad times. www.wsj.com/finance/inve...

Trump’s announcements and addresses are usually nothing burgers but uhhhhhh yeah I don’t feel good about this one

Fun, but I don't believe these polling results for a second for reasons discussed here: www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

The feds are escalating in Los Angeles. We've seen record high kidnappings and our communities are under attack. The media focus on LA has died down so electeds don't feel the need to even feign opposition. People are out here fighting. We need all of us. Join the struggle. Defend your neighbors.

This will be a long thread on yesterday police massacre in Rio. In nothern Rio de Janeiro city, there is a couple of hills called Complexo da Penha. It's Comando Vermelho("Red Command", a drug gang), or CV, territory. CV is the greatest gang in Rio, second in the whole Brazil. +

ICE and masked federal agents are continuing their brutal raids across US cities — targeting homes, workplaces, and public spaces with military-style force — and detaining thousands of community members including children.

Alabama plans to execute Boyd with nitrogen gas tomorrow, an experimental method that involves suffocating prisoners to death. “There’s nothing you can do to prepare for something like that,” Boyd told me. “You can’t prepare a person for drowning.” For more: boltsmag.org/anthony-boyd...

Proud that I’m so checked out of national electoral politics that I had no idea who the Nazi Oyster farmer was until today.

BREAKING from PP We found immigration agents have held more than 170 *citizens* The govt doesn't track citizens held. So we did. We tallied: Nearly 20 kids, two w/ cancer More than 20 citizens held for day or more, incommunicado www.propublica.org/article/immi... by @nicolefoy.bsky.social

We’ve met with Greta Thunberg and others in the flotilla. They describe hours-long scenes of torture and sexual harassment in Israeli captivity. Experts conclude that they have been subjected to serious crimes – Sweden’s foreign minister believes they have themselves to blame. tinyurl.se/crR

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

Do it.

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

NEW Quinnipiac poll of registered U.S. voters: • Half now say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza • Only 47% see backing Israel as a U.S. interest, down from 69% in 2023 • 60% oppose more military aid to Israel • 58% favor UN recognition of a Palestinian state www.haaretz.com/us-news/2025...

Plenty dullards with guns in this country, so it is unfortunately totally believable that someone sympathetic to immigrants but who is nevertheless, an idiot, shot into a random ICE van. Regardless, worth pointing out that 14 people have died in ICE custody so it is obviously feigned outrage.

There is no domestic terrorist designation. There is no domestic terrorist list. He's just making it up as he goes along.

Holy shit

Regime threatens media company saying "censor or we will do y" -> company censors. Seems pretty clear what happened here!

Yes, the war in Gaza is a genocide. I hope you’ll take a moment to read my op-ed here:

"The masses will remember Robert Redford jumping off that cliff with Paul Newman, but it’s the work in Park City that may have had the greatest effect." @sonnybunch.bsky.social on the actor, star, and indie entrepreneur: www.thebulwark.com/p/robert-red...

We're close to reaching a chilling moment; the first time in history where the single largest group of people arrested by ICE in the interior and held in detention are people with no criminal record. The gap is now down to fewer than 300 people.

Now as someone who has written a bit on political violence over the past four years I’ve been very interested in learning about the Italian years of lead. Problem is I don’t know Italian and there isn’t a ton of literature in English that I can find. Anyone have a good recs?

"What does seem clear is that the American Years of Lead are here." Read @jscros.bsky.social on where we're at. www.discourseblog.com/p/the-americ...

You do not have to like or care for a victim of political violence in order to believe that it is bad. Can someone explain to me what there is to celebrate? This has accomplished nothing and only ill will come in its wake.

Writing a thing about this but what really jumps out about Kavanugh's appalling opinion is that he pretends to be doing the same "myriad of factors" analysis so he can claim he's not just authorizing pure racial profiling. The problem is the other "factors" are... FACTORS ABOUT LOS ANGELES.

What is happening in Gaza is genocide. Those enabling it—lawmakers sending arms to Israel, officials giving it cover at the UN and international courts, the lobby groups demanding such support—aren’t just accomplices, but full participants in a crime against humanity. They must be held to account.

ICE will 'ramp up' immigration raids in Los Angeles, other 'sanctuary cities,' border czar says

Emotional scenes as 11 New York rabbis were arrested at our protest last night at the Israeli consulate. Chants of “let Gaza live!” and “that’s my rabbi!” thundered through the crowd as the rabbis were taken away by the police.

Greetings! I’m here at Metro Detention Center in Los Angeles, where a group of a few dozen protesters have congregated around a 24/7 camp. Currently, DHS officers and (likely, it’s dark) have formed a line. Protesters chanting. Dead Kennedys playing. With @melbuer.bsky.social
