A January 6, 2021, rioter, who was pardoned by President Donald Trump, pleaded guilty to a harassment charge after being accused of threatening to kill U.S. House of Representatives Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, prosecutors said on Thursday.
"What do they call it?"
"Alzheimer's."
Curious why ICE and CBP agents are so brutal? Here's a useful explainer I wrote last week, before Saturday's outrageous murder, about how uniquely unsuited ICE and CBP are for this moment—and why they were so corruptible into Trump's own fascist secret police: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...
In Minnesota, scores of ordinary people are bravely looking out for their neighbors, defending their communities, and protesting lawless violence.
They are the best of America.
Here's how to stand with them. www.standwithminnesota.com
Froze my ass off at the Iowa City anti-ICE rally, but it was worth it
The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.
Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.
The Trace has maintained a database tracking the people shot by federal agents as part of immigration enforcement:
@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”

Here’s the ICE goon. They’re telling everyone he was run over and is recovering in the hospital. He’s 💯 not hurt.
A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.
State and local officials in Minneapolis are outraged after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent fatally shot a woman there. https://to.pbs.org/49sX4oi
DOJ will ignore what may be a murder by federal agents. That's what the Trump DOJ is. This violence comes from the top.
State officials should be all over this and indict this as a crime if their investigation supports it.

that's nice and blunt
Brown U kids who survived USA 389th mass shooting of 2025 will now pay out of pocket for their healthcare, because USA guarantees guns but not health.
Australians who survived the 1st mass shooting in 29 years will pay nothing for healthcare because Australia guarantees health & regulates guns.
An amazing reminder of the hope we felt in the 90s.
I don't have any news to counteract the terrible news of the last few days, so here is a thread of cute animals eating things, with most with crunchy cromchy sounds.

My God… Rob Reiner.
I just can’t find the words.

The newly released Epstein files can be found here.
You have the opportunity to read these documents yourself and understand why the Trump administration fought so hard to keep them from you.
SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.
Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.
Don’t forget this.
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc
Elon and Marco are genocidaires and I hope they are one day tried in chains at the Hague.
here is my story about how Zohran's focus on community amid the loneliness epidemic helped young people connect their politics to an organizing infrastructure, that interviewed ZM, and does not use the NYT's framing of "they don't know how to make friends" :-) and also ran 4 days before NYT's lol
Mamdani asked, listened, and HEARD the people. Fantastic 🤩
The man behind the stolen 2000 election and the Iraq War has died
