Attorney for woman shot by Border Patrol claims officer said 'Do something b-----' before shooting Body-camera video appears to contradict the government's claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. A judge ordered Martinez and a co-defendant released pending trial.

Even fellow rock gods worshipped Eddie Van Halen: 'I couldn’t believe all that music coming out of one guitar' "I couldn’t believe all that music coming out of one guitar," KISS frontman Gene Simmons said of the first time he heard Van Halen in 1976.

Eddie Van Halen died five years ago today. I wrote many obituaries over my time freelancing for @nbcnews.com, but this appreciation was one of my all time favorites. My chance to sing the praises of a rock legend:

California is fighting him on sending California guard to Oregon, so he’s sending Texas guardsmen instead. Meanwhile judges are telling him no. This is escalating.

Its the world worst I told you so said without any joy or ego

But

We said Trump wasn't going to leave legally or peacefully. Republicans are going for absolute power and martial law

Trust the evidence of your eyes.

Brad Lander Wants New York City to Resist The NYC Comptroller talks ICE, Trump, Zohran, and Brooklyn.

"When Trump sends troops here, how will we stand up to them insistently and make clear New York doesn’t need them, New York doesn’t want them, New York is resisting them?"
I spoke to @bradlander.bsky.social about ICE, Trump, Zohran, and the future of New York.

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality.

Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook.

Our duty is to stand up to brutality.

Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

Every performance is unbelievably good (especially the lawyer and nurse who had maybe three lines each?? You’ll get what I mean).

Also the way PTA ties white supremacy to escalating violence and shows how community-building + solidarity will triumph over both is just… so prescient.

Feels like this sometimes, but with more falling, bruising, things engulfed in flames, and crying.

I have one:

Social media is a bizarre mix of advertising and journaling.

I think it's been bad for creator's mental health that much of the advertising has been offloaded onto them to do through social media.

Oh also I stand by my statement 10 years ago that when twitter changed from a star (bookmark) to a heart (endorsement/chasing fb) it was the beginning of the end for twitter.

I think the fighting weighted algos did unbelievable mental health damage to people who spent most of their time alone.

A WILD ONE: A man broke his leg during an arrest by ICE at a car wash south of L.A.

ICE has held him under 24/7 guard at a hospital, registering him under a pseudonym, for *37 days* without telling him why.

A judge has ordered his immediate release.

FACT FOCUS: Democrats did not shut down the government to give health care to 'illegal immigrants' This is false. Democrats say they are pushing for the inclusion of key health care provisions in the next congressional spending package.
