ICE is targeting Native businesses & community/resource centers in Minneapolis. They harassed people at Pow Wow Grounds & sat outside of the American Indian Women's Resource Center for 2 hours last month. Many Native people (that we know of, there's definitely more) have been kidnapped by ICE.

The "I worked on this story for a year and he just tweeted it out" tweet as a screenshot.

I've been kinda numb today, in no small part because of the E-files revelations that this whole trans genocide was so that the friends of some billionaires were chasers.

I... I wrote about this for my scholarly book. I put so much effort into showing it.

I get how Sexton feels. Fucking fuck.

I remember when political scientists sounding the alarm about a Jan. 6-type event in ~October 2020 were ridiculed by "smart" pundits as radical leftists. One called an article in The Atlantic "too magazine-y." The good news is people seem to be taking 2026/28 much more seriously

Rowling extended an invite to Epstein for the "Cursed Child" broadway debut. Musk emailedEpstein begging to be allowed on the island. Epstein chatted with evo psych guys about the suitability of trans women for prostitution.

Society is organized around the sexual exploitation of the vulnerable.

here's my entry!! #Comics4Liam

holy fucking hell these guys are like not only obsessed with cocks and how to suck them but are like, truly making some of the most depraved grindr chasers i've encountered look like perfect gentlemen

As Black History Month begins, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers who built this city into the “gorgeous mosaic” we call home.

Today, we reflect on the words of Mayor David Dinkins: our city’s first Black mayor (and a democratic socialist!).

this is one of those "on paper we say it's just to fuck up trans people, but its actually to remove the largest democratic voting block, especially when we make it next to impossible to live as a single woman and get paid a livable wage" silly tricks doctors hate #political

You CANNOT make this shit up.

I assume this outrageous graft will be considered to be part of his "official duties?" Totally immune?

He's looting the U.S. Treasury, people. Most crooked dictators find covert ways to get rich. Trump intends to simply order his government to transfer money into his bank account.

An imagine explaining that OpenAI is Trump's largest donor

One more reason my soul shrivels up every time I hear someone say "I just used chatgpt to ____"

Back when millennials and Gen z were considered the same thing lol. I hate how perfectly right he wound up being, but he was always right

These are, again, not law enforcement. They are armed, masked thugs. Approaching her with guns drawn, we’ve already seen they will kill people at the slightest provocation, or no provocation at all. This woman was very fortunate.

The nazis redistributed the stolen property of deported Jews to the German population. It was called Aryanization.

This is no different.

Don’t ever let people forget this.

Quilicura, Chile, one of the communities I wrote about in EMPIRE OF AI, has launched a brilliant initiative to inspire more responsible AI prompting. Today, don't use AI; ask the townspeople instead: quili.ai. So heartened to see this creative act of resistance.

Look I don't believe we should be handing out the death penalty lightly but I also don't believe ICE agents deserve to live after doing shit like this

👀 Looks like the husband of the woman ICE abducted called his lawyer, lawyer called the cops, then the police chief went and got her & took her home

Article says it may be the first time local Minnesota PD "intervened in a federal law enforcement action" since Trump started terrorizing the state
