ICE Is Expanding Across the US at Breakneck Speed. Here’s Where It’s Going Next ICE plans to lease offices throughout the US as part of a secret, monthslong expansion campaign. WIRED is publishing dozens of these locations.

And there’s this: ICE expansion.

Are those fuckers going to invade Mexico?

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

ANOTHER ANGLE: the original video was deleted but I screen capped it. Here it is.

ANOTHER ANGLE. This man was NOT brandishing a firearm. He was holding his phone. He then put his body between ICE thugs and woman. He was then sprayed with a chemical agent, tackled, disarmed, and executed. Plain as day. DO NOT let them tell you otherwise.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Trump’s normal dementia rant.

So, How’s the Occupation Going for You? What’s it like to live in America with a domestic military occupation? Minnesota has the answer.

"Neighbors in neon vests dot the neighborhood... Information-sharing networks have been built. Residents have connected with non-profits and churches to deliver food to people who are locked in their homes out of fear. Resistance signs are everywhere..."

Tell your Senators or Representative what action you want them to take. Thank them if they already did it.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

That’s why former administrations did late Friday afternoon document dumps when releasing information harmful to them.

Jair Bolsonaro sentenced to 27 years in prison for plotting Brazil coup The former president has been found guilty of trying to mount coup to cling to power after he lost the election.

Why can't America be more like Brazil?

Brazil got it right.

Why can't the US be more like Brazil?

POTUS doesn't know which body part had an MRI.

You either go into the tube head first or feet first.

If you can't remember, you flunked the MRI.

I can’t tell what’s real or fake anymore.

“Riots Raging”: The Misleading Story Fox News Told About Portland Before Trump Sent Troops After reviewing coverage from the network and hours of social media videos that preceded Trump’s decision, ProPublica found that Fox’s portrayal of “Portland rioters” routinely instigating violence was misleading.

NEW: ProPublica examined months of Fox News’ coverage and reviewed over 700 videos posted on social media.

The network used five-year-old footage, mislabeled other dates and implied footage from elsewhere was in Portland.

Demolished the east wing of the White House to build a billion-dollar ballroom in its place.

Thank you.

It’s the process.

In her order, Jackson said a temporary stay was required so tht the appeals crt can consider the gov's app in full. Jackson is the justice assigned responsibility for appeals from the Boston-based appeals crt.
