This picture is so crazy that if you had this as a scene in a made-for-TV dystopian scifi movie in like 2014 people would switch channels because you’d ruined the suspension of disbelief.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

At least 4 homeless folks froze to death in DC during the recent winter storm.

In the capital of the richest country in the world.

Where we're spending $1.65 million a day to pay for the Nat'l guard to do nothing.

It does not have to be this way.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) β€” Alberto CastaΓ±eda MondragΓ³n says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance.

But the violence he endured last month in Minnesota while being detained is seared into his battered brain.

He remembers Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulling him from a friend’s car on Jan. 8 outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him and striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he said he was beaten again.

He also remembers the emergency room and the intense pain from eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man β€œpurposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

NBC editing out the booing of JD Vance is a disgrace. It’s an international event. Americans have the right to know what the world is saying. NBC has bowed down to Trump.

School officials say missing Minneapolis girl seen in ICE detention in Texas Children detained by ICE in Minneapolis and taken to Texas spotted a classmate in the cafeteria of the detention center.

It took a month and a chance encounter more than 1,000 miles away for an elementary school principal in Minneapolis to learn that a missing fifth-grade student, along with her family, was being held by immigration authorities in a Texas detention center.

This is interesting: New Mexico seems likely to pass a bill banning private ICE concentration camps in the state, despite some loss of jobs

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Hey, @mayorbowser.dc.gov and @ddotdc.bsky.social : I walk my kids three blocks to school. Most (although certainly not all) sidewalks are shoveled now enough for us to walk single file there, but piles of snow remain at every single intersection.

Whats the plan to deal with this?

We didn't say body cams on ICE. Their murders are already on video. We said no more ICE.
