Reddit, Meta, and Google Voluntarily Gave DHS Info of Anti-ICE Users, Report Says https://gizmodo.com/reddit-meta-and-google-voluntarily-gave-dhs-info-of-anti-ice-users-report-says-2000722279

Politics With Congress gone, much of DHS is set to run out of' money after midnight Democrats nave refused to fund the department without new restrictions on federal imm gration agents, including requiring them to wear body cameras and tighter rules on warrants. Today at 14:24 MT

Note the framing here:

It’s “Democrats have refused to fund” DHS and not “Republicans refused to prohibit face masks” or “the two parties could not agree on how to reform the agency.”

Exclusive: White House uses USAID funds for budget director Vought's security, documents show The White House budget office is using millions of dollars from the former U.S. foreign aid agency to pay for the security detail of Russell Vought, President Donald Trump's budget chief and an archit...

The Project 2025 author is using millions of dollars in USAID money for his own security detail.

It is estimated that 762,000 people have *already died* as a result of Elon Musk and Russell Vought’s obscene murder of USAID, including more than 500,000 children.

Vought is a mass murderer.

This is a very good open source resource on the variety of ways that DOGE damaged government:

If anyone has any evidence that folks doing the kind of activism and observing that Pretti and Good were doing when killed were inspired by *elected officials,* I'd love to see it.

Because from my reporting in Minneapolis, exactly zero people cited elected officials as inspiration.

ICE's Masks Are All a Lie Working for ICE is actually less dangerous than being an elementary school student in America.

Why, given the reality of the role, should ICE officers be armed at all?

If you truly want to re-imagine ICE, it’s not entirely clear why what is actually a civil matter — immigration enforcement — should be considered armed federal law enforcement at all? — @vermontgmg.bsky.social

Nope - nothing has changed/de-escalated here. Sunday I was out observing ICE with others in my neighborhood and witnessed ICE (as per one of their usual intimidation tactics) lead us right up to and stop in front of the house where one of us in the group lives.

Trump is in the unredacted Epstein files "more than a million times," Raskin alleges One document recounts that Trump said he "never" asked Epstein to leave Mar-a-Lago.

Howard Lutnick faces bipartisan calls to resign over latest Epstein revelations Recently disclosed records suggest a closer relationship than the Commerce secretary previously indicated.

Secretary Howard Lutnick lied to the country about his ties to Epstein.

Now we learned that they were in business together.

He has no business being our Commerce Secretary.

He should resign.

Trans Youth Suicides Skyrocketed In UK After Care Drawdown; Government Covers It Up A Freedom of Information request to the National Child Mortality Database reveals that 22 trans children under 18 died by suicide in England in 2021-22 alone.

In an alarming development, it appears the UK Government covered up a massive spike in trans youth suicides after restrictions.

Then covered it up again when caught.

Now, after fighting for years, the data is public: trans suicide increased 5x in the country.

Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities:

Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down

Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged

Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

"Under no circumstances should armed federal kidnappers wear masks unless they really want to I suppose."

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

Note: CBP, not ICE.

(Not that ICE is any angel, but it's important to keep these straight. Yes, abolish ICE, but let's not forget that CBP is a problem too.)

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

I would love to be able to flip through a coffee table book of these. Thank you so much for sharing.

A digital illustration of Max Headroom, a shiny, fast/talking electric man who lived inside a TV who we all liked in the 80s. He has a very tall head with an odd stripey blond hair cut and a goofy grin. He’s wearing white wayfarers and a shiny white, wide shouldered jacket over a lilac colored shirt and black bow tie. The background is intersecting colored perspective lines sort of forming the idea of a box. Colorful type following the perspective of the walls reads ‘MAYBE IT WILL HAPPEN TODAY’.

What is Nick Shirley? Slop doesn’t need to be AI-generated

The violent occupation of Minneapolis started with a vlog. I've wanted to find a framework to describe Nick Shirley & others like him: "Influencer" is too quaint. "Journalist" is obviously wrong.

I landed on "slopagandist."

An entire community of thousands, here legally, having been demonized with deranged lies about eating pets, is about to be arbitrarily DECLARED illegal so they can be forcibly ethnically cleansed. I don’t want to hear one more fucking word about comparisons to Nazi Germany being overwrought.

“Headlines call it a ‘crackdown’ on immigration and a “clash” between the government and ‘protesters,’ when in reality it’s murderous occupying forces being confronted by people who just want to live free of their violence.”

The skeet from @bodegacats.bsky.social featuring a black-and-white cat on a red-and-white floor, followed by one from @wendyo.bsky.social showing a piece of red, white and black abstract artwork with strong geometry, labeled "Sleep Mask by Adolph Gottlieb (1945)"

Wait--

A stylish black-and-white cat sits looking over its shoulder on a somewhat muted red-and-white tile floor

Why does this look so much like a vintage Polish poster?

Pro tip for any Hill journos, the Speaker can approve 24hr protection for Members who are under heightened threat. Omar used to have this, but Mike Johnson took it away. You should ask him about that
