So glad to hear Egan. It’s always baffling to me when I find a sci-fi bookstore shelf without his stuff.

‘Liberty Vans’ appear across US to help immigrants – and document ICE raids Volunteers offer moral and legal support, and document ICE actions with the aim of holding people accountable

Liberty Vans, or camioneta de la libertad in Spanish, are on a mission to defend vulnerable communities in the crosshairs of federal enforcement. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

‘Is this real?’: 366 days of fresh air for Leonard Peltier - ICT The Chippewa activist and two of the people who helped gain his release talked to ICT recently about what life beyond prison has been like for Peltier.

It’s been one year since Leonard Peltier, the longest serving political prisoner in the U.S., came home after Biden commuted his sentence. Last week, he reflected on his first year of freedom.

"The day of accountability will come": Rep. Delia Ramirez on abolishing and prosecuting DHS The Handbasket spoke with the congresswoman who called out ICE long before it was popular.

NEW — I spoke with Rep. Delia Ramirez (@ramirez.house.gov) about her calling DHS leaders "inheritors of the Klan hood and the slave patrol," the prospect of one day seeing them behind bars, and what it's like to see the public [finally] embrace her long-held dream to abolish ICE.

Our conversation:

Painting. A pale-skinned woman with dark brown hair heaped in a neo-Classical-looking ornate style, decorated with bejewelled butterflies and natural-shaped gold. She sits against a dark background, butterflies fluttering around her; her dress is Virgin-Mary blue but slipping off her shoulders. From behind her peeps a glowing heron. Two fox cups sit on her lap, one dozing and the other putting up a trusting paw to her chest. She also holds a bitten pomegranate in a hand decked with a heavy emerald ring.

Aye, there's a woman sits by the lake on Valentine's Day you can ask about love if you like. She'll mostly tell you how she loves the world rather than who you'll marry, but it's good advice nonetheless.

A street scene in Minneapolis. We are looking past a pair of heavily armed and armored masked men in camo with weaponS on their belts and in hand. Past them in a small group of ordinary residents. These people are unmasked, wearing normal winter coats, facing the armed men with phones up, recording the paramilitary.

Ah, that's so neat! I love the Defiant design, but I'm not comfortable enough with Bricklink to do orders yet. Thanks for making this an option!

Ooh! How do Part Kits work? Is the Defiant an option?

Artemis II is taking humans back to the moon soon! Let's talk about their trajectory.

Liam is home now and we are grateful to @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social for traveling to Minneapolis with him and his dad.

Welcome home Liam ❤️❤️

Neat! That sounds delightful. I had no idea! Based on your review, I just picked up 2 tickets for February 7th.

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

Behind the disturbing image of ICE snatching a half-naked, elderly Hmong American from his home DHS has claimed without evidence that they were looking for someone else when they took ChongLy Scott Thao.

New — I wrote about ChongLy Scott Thao, the elderly Hmong American wrongly arrested and forced out of his home by ICE in his underwear during the punishing Minnesota winter, what witnesses saw, and DHS's racist claim that he fit the description of another Asian man they were looking for.

My story:

an important reminder that you are in charge of computer. any time computer seems to contradict this, turn something off.

More public restrooms across our city?
Relief for all New Yorkers.

What's happening in our country and our state with ICE is horrific, unjust, and it needs to stop — now.

I support a bill to prohibit law enforcement from wearing masks and to require identifying information. Let’s get that to my desk immediately so I can sign it into law.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003

when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

Seattle Joins National Anti-ICE Protest for Woman Killed by ICE in Minneapolis For Ray Mitchell, Renee Nicole Good’s blood is not only on the hands of the ICE agent who shot her—it’s on the hands of American leaders who “refuse to stand up.”

Hundreds gathered outside the federal building downtown as Seattle joined a national wave of anti-ICE protests after Renee Nicole Good was killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. @micahyip.bsky.social reports.

Bellingham staffer asked ChatGPT to 'exclude' vendor from city contract An expert in procurement fraud says it’s the first time he’s seen AI used this way: “a classic issue that happens in government procurement… just with a modern veneer.”

Fascinating exposé by @sanfordnate.bsky.social today. The headline is damning enough, but the details of the story are object lessons about using genAI in the workplace, including: it encourages people to say the quiet part out loud, and records the result.
