Jared Kushner presented a 'master plan' for Gaza at the Board of Peace event this morning. Slides included 'New Gaza' and 'New Rafah'.

I know I will probably get flamed for what is an incredibly cringe and definitely borderline, at minimum, histrionic statement but what the fascist Republican Party is doing with acts like these are the preceding steps to culturicide.

I was at MANY of these stops. Here’s what would happen: the agents would stand guard at the cars, Bovino would literally pose out front while people yelled at him. It was a pathetic, obvious attempt to antagonize neighbors - they transited three gas stations and did the exact same thing thrice.

This is who federal agents are ripping out of their communities and shipping across the country. This is the danger we're being protected from.

same, except with the Mulkeys

I’ve been writing Popular Information for 8 years, and this is one of the most important stories I’ve ever published. This is a humanitarian crisis that has gone unreported.

hey internet people ! i donated to this - and you can too, if yr able . any bit helps obv the world is a dumpster fire - i think supporting music and community is the way to get us thru www.gofundme.com/f/support-je...

i could be convinced JK Rowling represents a bigger commercial proposition than Trey Miguel but would really need to review the numbers

TX punk history: Houston’s AK-47 vs HPD The song “The Badge Means You Suck” (HPD’s PR phrase in the 80s was ‘the badge means you care’) named some of the names of victims of police brutality The Houston Police Officers’ Association sued the band for 1M 1981 dollars; the suit was eventually dropped

could not be any worse to deal with than the local plant that throws 60 LP’s in one box (with nothing else) and wonders why that’s a problem

A more important task would be to get Democrats to stop confirming Trump’s nominees.

would’ve spared everyone a lot of “those were different times” chatter, countless scenes of gratuitous smoking

Every time the Trump regime uses the words "funded protesters" and "outside agitators" news outlets need to cut to this photo from last week. ICE has invaded these communities. Outside agitators don't show up in their fucking bathrobes.

Jennifer Kelly (@aquariumdrunkard.com, Dusted) needs our help. Underground music heads, please join me in chipping in.

what if the original colonialists had been familiar with the concept of time-shares

ICE is using an array of tools and programs to track people's social media activity and location. But 404 Media journalist Joseph Cox told Minnesota Now host Nina Moini that there's a "solid and robust" way to help combat even more surveillance: turning off your phone's location services.

2026 : less Turnstile jumping more turnstile jumping

Doc Rivers, Steve Kerr, the T-Wolf fans, Sportsguy Nick Wright. More please. Let’s go sports world. You want to see brave? Be an immigrant walking to work in Minneapolis. That’s brave. You just have to say “state murder is bad.” It’s not fucking hard and it’s needed from all corners.

the only thing i have less patience for than some show biz dork bragging about the bands they’ve signed is someone doing the same about bands they _almost_ signed. the old cliche, “those who cannot do, teach” has been replaced with “those who cannot do, substack”

Not an exaggeration at all to say that the feeling in Minneapolis is that the entire metro area is being treated as occupied territory by federal agents. Impossible to overstate how overwhelmingly people here do not like it. This does not feel sustainable.

the demonization of great American cities knows no bounds. Minneapolis, PDX, Chicago, Memphis, NYC… you know what they all have in common

The federal government seceding from the union is a new one

Prison guards are flocking to ICE jobs and frankly this makes sense. Those of us who have been anti-prison organizers for decades have been saying that fascism already existed within prisons/jails. Our best teachers for how to survive fascism are incarcerated people.

they began covering this story by letting others infer wrongdoing on Good’s part, segued to serious analysis of the multiple videos (once it was clear this was a massive story) and have now pivoted to selective reporting. on the best of days, the Times is rudderless. on the worst, they’re much worse

i would like to legally change my name to Experimental Mark Downs

Today on WFMU: Beginning today, and for the following two weeks, The Hour Of Crap (Sheena's Jungle Room Stream) will commemorate the 35th anniversary of the U2/Negativland EP, the recording that launched a lot of noise and a few lawsuits (6 p.m. ET). www.wfmu.org/upcoming

I patiently waited for the NY Times' Katherine Rosman and Nicholas Fandos to fully explain why Zohran Mamdani socializing with celebs was bad or disingenuous but upon learning "he chatted with the actress Fran Drescher", I think we can all agree the mayor is simply out of control #onlyfrans

just saw an especially bad band called out as “performative hardcore” and i think i’m just gonna start calling everything and everyone that regardless of what they sound like. my fave bin in the record shop

Times says he’s 18 and since he’s not competing in the Little League World Series, there’s no reason to doubt this

Excellent, damning analysis of the video of the killing of Ms Good, from the NYT, including a quick debunking of the “evidence” the President showed other Times reporters last night. www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

It’s absolutely the right call and fucking surreal that our public schools have to close because of the threat posed by OUR OWN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. I am beyond livid.

This is the current front page of the Times. The Washington Post is even worse. Their headlines are privileging the accounts of the administration with a track record of lying as being as valid as eye witness accounts and videos.

This is a vetted fundraiser for the family of Renee Good, the woman who was killed by ICE in Minneapolis. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...
