Prosecutors Began Investigating Renee Good’s Killing. Washington Told Them to Stop.

Kash Patel stopped FBI agents from investigating Renee Good’s killing because the findings might’ve contradicted their narrative that she was a “domestic terrorist.”

We cannot trust a word coming out of this Admin.

DHS must allow Minnesotan authorities to investigate, NOW.

AI remixes old ideas. Eventually it gets cheaper & better at it than humans. What next? Everything published becomes AI, right? Good humans will start making bespoke stuff nobody ever sees but the client.

What will the next gen of AI learn from? Remixes. Nothing new will ever be made after that.

I'll take two.

I’m not on a JURY. Reasonable Doubt isn’t my standard. I’m deciding where to spend my money. Chick Fil A isn’t breaking the law donating to anti-LGBT groups, but I still don’t eat bigot chicken. Gaiman maybe didn’t break any laws, IDK, IANAL, but I still won’t buy his stupid ass book.

The thing about this Gaiman BS is that it doesn’t matter if he’s *criminally* guilty, or what the accusers are like. Even technodildo’s screed paints him as a dude drunk on power who doesn’t see a problem with being coercive and shitty to women, and that’s enough for me not to buy his new book.

their awareness that they won't get targeted for DOJ while the DOJ describes standing outside and blowing whistles as domestic terrorism is surely something

Heck yeah! All for this!

That’s all great!

But you miss the point that the Dems are happy to STOP there. “No masks” is their demand for $10bn extra funding!

They could say “we aren’t voting for a budget until we see these killer ICE agents charged.”

The point is minor reforms might help a little, but it's like pissing on a house fire. Until they face legal consequences, the needle isn't going to move.

I need one patio door replaced and just stumbled on this lol. I'll note that name.

Imagine if Pretti’s killers’ identities were known and they STILL didn't face consequences. They'd be emboldened. Other ICE agents would feel even more invulnerable than they already do. Heck, they'd run for office.

100%! What's the point of seeing their faces if they’ll never go to prison for their murders? It'll just embolden them!

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Practical lessons from art professors!

It's frustrating how little universities teach the practical side of creative and academic subjects. Academia used to be actively hostile to teaching practical skills, too. I'm so glad to see it. Thanks for sharing.

You know Alex Pretti & Renee Good—the 2 white people ICE killed.

ICE has also killed Keith Porter, a Black man, Parady La, a Cambodian man, & 5 Latinos—Heber Sanchaz Domínguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz, Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas Campos.

9 TOTAL.

ABOLISH ICE.

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

They were very happy about Democrats buying guns. That's how they get paid - gun sales. This is chilling on all gun owners, but it will stop a lot of leftists from considering it.

Sleet just started in Columbia

the fact that the NRA is offering even this incredibly mild level of resistance is significant.

People do not like what they are seeing.

Will it be windy?

I know I'm often called "the only real victim of heterophobia" but honestly, the kinds of insults and mockery I got were for looking or acting effeminate/GNC, wearing a bow, not how a man SHOULD look/act. ie looking/acting too womanly or gay

and we already have words for that kind of judgement

Seeing a bunch of normal ass midwestern moms and dads marching in -20 degrees knowing they might be tear gassed or worse really drives home what a cowardly lot of people the pundit class is

Two small children hold signs they made. "LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE!" "ICE GIT OUT YA FUCKIN DUMBIES 😡"

Gotta remind yourself not to cry when you see the kid's signs.

It's negative -25°F and tears are dangerous.

"LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE!"

"ICE GIT OUT YA FUCKIN DUMBIES 😡"

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Practice obfuscation everybody. Poison the marketing data.

The first General Strike in 80 years We're at war, and now people are fighting back like never before

Today is the day. Right now hundreds of Minnesota businesses and institutions are shut down. Thousands of people are refusing to work. There’s a massive picket at the airport. Minnesota’s resistance to ICE today is changing the tenor our fight against fascism.

If this is our generation’s Bleeding Kansas, we need a John Brown.

I appreciate your optimism.

I think there are ICE checkpoints at BIPOC neighborhood polling locations in every purple state coming.
