Justice department charges man accused of attacking Ilhan Omar at town hall Anthony Kazmierczak faces federal assault charges after he appeared to spray the congresswoman with liquid from a syringe

I don’t think we can take anything this regime claims at face value & as such we should caveat the material identification as a “Trump Regime claim”

AND:

Supposedly it was apple cider vinegar mixed with water, like, I thought that was for keeping pets from chewing wires, not felonies.

Every article makes it sound like the Dems won something but the bills everyone agrees on is their fucking leverage. And they gave it up.

if this guy had any real talent for posting he'd announced he was opening negotiations with Minnesota

a sweating cuttlefish holds up the phone and above in big yellow block letters it says "Call your reps". Underneath the cuttlefish it says "squid can't use phones"

Call your reps to demand they:
1) Abolish ice (every day!)
2) Vote no whenever the "Make Elections Great Again" Act comes up. It's an atrocious set of restrictions on elections made to make voting harder. Fuck that! Don't let them hear the end of it.

Remember. Squid can't use phones, so we have to.

FBI seizing ballots and election records from a Georgia election office isn’t normal law enforcement. Nor is it normal for the Director of National Intelligence to be involved.

If the DOJ can be used to relitigate a settled election, it can be weaponized in every future one. This is not democracy.

Looks like a StarFleet emblem on his jacket.

Yayyy!

Nope. Stolen work.

Anyway, you can give $5 tax deductible to PBS for their app and get Ken Burns Revolutionary War doc along with Lupita and Sandra Oh in Twelfth Night and not pollute all of Memphis while you’re watching it.

Trump Administration Live Updates: Senate Democrats and White House Reach Deal to Avoid Shutdown

Fuck you

Screenshot of an X post by Omar Jimenez (@OmarJim…, 7h) stating that Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison says he doesn’t have the names of the agents who shot Alex Pretti, adding: “I’ve been a lawyer for 36 years. I’ve never seen anything like this before.” Below is a CNN video thumbnail showing a split screen: on the left, an older man in a black cap and glasses labeled “Brown | Business Owner,” and on the right, Keith Ellison in a suit. A CNN “LIVE” bug appears in the corner.

This is a cover up of a murder, led by our own federal government.

BREAKING: New Jersey Governor Sherrill is creating an online portal for New Jersey residents to report encounters with ICE agents. She wants you to record as much as you can!

This is so unhinged

Aww, the poor little guy. When he comes out give him a hug for me.

Same reason they made the movie to begin with. Because they're idiots.

YouTube video by Huppelplopp1848 Chumbawamba - The day the nazi died

So if you meet with these historians
I'll tell you what to say
Tell them that the Nazis
Never really went away

They're out there burning houses down
And peddling racist lies

And we'll never rest again
Until every Nazi dies.

Outside the stage show, that's my favourite version.

Yup. Forget and move on is the Schumer play.

Nope and nope.

Schumer caved.

Congrats MAGA and ICE.

When the president was calling all Somali immigrants "garbage" who "come from hell" and "contribute nothing" to America and therefore needed to go "back where they came from" did you ask him to "stop the rhetoric," Tom?

Screenshot of an X.com post by Republicans against Trump (@RpsAgainstTrump) quoting an exchange: “Reporter: The president called you a loser.” It attributes a response to Republican Senator Thom Tillis: “I am thrilled about that. That makes me qualified to be homeland security secretary and senior adviser to the president.” Below is a CNN hallway scrum video thumbnail of Tillis speaking to reporters. A lower-third reads “DEVELOPING STORY” and “GOP SEN. TILLIS: ‘I DON’T HAVE ANY CONFIDENCE’ IN NOEM,” with “LIVE” and CNN branding.

Zing! Sen. Tillis goes for the jugular with Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller.

In acrylic since I neglected to mention it.

3.5 hours spent working on a small part of a small painting. I need to figure out how to manage the edges of different coloured areas so they don't blend when I don't want them to.

29 January 1923 | A Pole, Konstanty Kolasinski, was born in Łódź.

In #Auschwitz from 20 June 1940.
No. 800
In 1943, he was transferred to Neuengamme concentration camp. He survived the war.

I’d probably feel better about this if I didn’t have a functioning short term memory.

(the overall experiment is "is this fish from the store labeled properly or not?" but when one has the opportunity to pursue forbidden knowledge, it's hard to resist)

this semester in intro bio, we will be delving into Secrets Which Humankind Ought Not Seek To Know (DNA barcoding some imitation crabmeat to figure out what on earth it actually is)

so umm "invalidate the government IDs of targeted group and thus restrict freedom of movement" is historically speaking Very Bad

Over 1,000 tech workers have signed this open letter calling on their companies to break from ICE—including employees at Meta, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple, Nvidia, and OpenAI 👀
