When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.
Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.
el-Sayed: "Imagine there was no war in Iran. Imagine if there were no air strikes in Lebanon. Imagine if his family had never died. Imagine there was never an attack on Temple Israel. That's the world that we want to live in. That's the world we need to build for. Violence always begets violence."
A Minneapolis woman who opposed ICE woke up to a drone outside her second floor bedroom window. A man delivering groceries to a suburban distro house for mutual aid recorded a drone hovering above the house. Whose drones and why? (1) www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
"I'm willing to take a not guilty. I'm willing to take a no true bill."
What she means is she's willing to bring legally deficient cases that harass innocent defendants, waste her line prosecutors' time, and makes her office look like jerkoffs in front of judges and juries.
Visited the Revolutionary Women in Music exhibit at the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame.
"It'd be great if the company would let me hire a reporter."
Now if you need to remember the name of a shoebill, you can search for "tall bird."
Also, shoebills aren't real, they're Muppets and no one can convince otherwise.
Oh my god, a dark money group is paying people to attack Tim Onion. But they call me a "CEO of a major media company."
Do not pay influencers to attack Tim Onion and his untold millions (or billions?) of dollars to attack Tim Onion without mentioning the GREAT deal you can on an Onion membership.
The elementary school crossing guards broke into a spontaneous “Ewwww!!” when a Cybertruck drove by. It’s so over. For Elon, but also for me, as they followed up their assertion that it’s a “Car for old men” with a quickly-blurted “No offense.”
This country is sick.
It's genuinely terrifying that my country is at war and I can't tell the difference between a press conference by the Secretary of Defense and a pro wrestler hyping an upcoming match.
This is not hyperbole. Hegseth is emotionally incapable and intellectually void and that is an important job.
this means it is not open for transit
Ms Rachel has shifted from advocating for children killed by bombs that our taxes pay for, to advocating for children that our government is imprisoning without cause, which our taxes also pay for.
This isn’t what a kid’s entertainer should feel the need to do, but since we’re here, more ppl should.
As the old saying goes, "if your bubbe had balls, she'd be your zaide."
They don’t think women have agency, why would they think enemies in war would?
Not being snarky. This is abuser culture with nukes. A government by insecure overcompensating violent narcissists who’ve never faced consequences.
You don’t put those DOGE boys in prison, you’ll get a whole new batch.
Speaking as a Jew living in Diaspora, who needs to exist as a minority at a time of rising antisemitism, I would really appreciate it if the Prime Minister of a country where I do not live would not say that attacks on a sovereign country are analogous to attacks on a synagogue.
Sometimes, most times, that's enough.
sam altman looks so desperate in every pic I've ever seen of him, a man hoping against hope to come up with an actual business model before everything collapses on him
These AI bros are the dumbest fucking people. Who thinks like this, let alone says it out loud?
To be honest, it's perfectly normal to me. This is how I grew up, seeing armed security at the synagogue on the high holidays.
"Palantir CEO Alex Karp says his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men."
Just saying it right out loud now.

using public office to name and shame evil landlords into submission is so cool. i hope democrats learn from him
A guy rammed his car through a door at Detroit’s largest synagogue and got out with a gun and was shot by security before he could massacre everyone inside.
And yes all synagogues that can afford it have security. And yes it’s exactly because of situations like this that they do.
"Jennifer Schuessler has meticulously documented the destruction since the beginning... But there’s something about seeing a callow young man blank out when asked why he destroyed so much that really brings home the mindless destruction of this campaign." www.lawandchaospod.com/p/doge-bros-...
A group of religious zealots in the US government see the bombing of Iran as part of their God’s plan to bring about the apocalypse, and their actions have resulted in Iran appointing a new leader who sees his historical mission as bringing about the end of the world. So it’s all going to plan.
I think a lot of smart and/or competent people have real trouble wrapping their heads around the idea that sometimes the answer to: Why are they doing that? is simply that the person in question is a cheese-brained dipshit who has bern promoted far beyond their level of competence.
And so the American experiment with democracy is transformed from Lincoln's "the last best hope of earth...The way is plain, peaceful, generous, just—a way which if followed the world will forever applaud and God must forever bless..."
...becomes "We are really good at killing people."
Tech brain.
Russian submarines and the captains who defect with them.
