Exciting news! The incomparable @naomioreskes.bsky.social and Alexander Kaurov have started a substack called "Reckoning Science." We need this content more than ever. I've just subscribed--hope you will too. reckoningscience.org/launching-re...
ICE has been tracking the names of protesters in an internal database for several months, according to two ICE officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss operations.
When I testified to the Senate Help Committee in the fall, Josh Hawley and Ashley Moody were very anti-AI, challenging the GOP witnesses (That was fun!)
Blue states need to pass laws that keep all Federal agents 10 miles away from any voting site or drop box or be subject to immediate arrest and incarceration until the voting is over.
🚨BREAKING: Steve Bannon said Tuesday that the federal government is planning to send Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers to patrol polling stations during this year’s midterm elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

this is what’s happening everywhere they go in force
ordinary people will not be cowed the same way elite society has been
we are going to win
It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"
They tried intimidation. Minnesota answered with people.
Yes #Clawitback
2% of immigrants detained in Minnesota have any record of violent crime. And yet…today, “President Trump…vilified the thousands of people arrested by ICE in Minnesota, falsely describing them as “hardened, vicious, horrible criminals.

A reminder that Maura Healey is the ONLY Democratic governor in New England governor to have a collaboration agreement with ICE.
Healey, despite her words, continues to use OUR tax dollars to provide free labor to ICE.
Let her know it's time to de-ICE MA.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.
His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.
This is a really incredible piece. Share it widely 🎁https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/2026/01/minneapolis-uprising/685755/?gift=C-rzmQ8PsUHt15odxTKJDn7xrpPNxSpotkNz_P27oI0
The story is not that there are two conflicting versions of what happened.
The story is that the federal government is lying about what happened.
There is plenty of evidence.
Your job, our job, is to sift that evidence and describe what actually happened ffs.
I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity.
They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.
Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.
Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today. ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.
"ICE is a criminal organization"
AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."
The statement from Alex Pretti’s parents is just “tell the government to stop telling smirking, transparent lies about why it killed our son” which feels like a new low for our nation. This president and his toadies have brought us to our knees and must be driven out
His name was Alex Jeffrey Pretti
-37-year-old Male
-U.S. Citizen
-Registered Licensed Nurse
-Worked for Veterans Affairs
Executed on the streets of Minneapolis by the Gestapo Nazi Scum known as ICE and DHS.
ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.
If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.
Current temp in Minneapolis: -12°F (-24°C), -28°F wind chill (-33°C)
Thousands of people are congregating downtown for today's General Strike march against ICE. Thousands more are on their way.
Of course we are going to win.
Looking forward to this March 9 conversation with @chrislhayes.bsky.social on attention, democracy, and The Siren's Call at the Center for Brooklyn History. Details below: www.bklynlibrary.org/calendar/cbh...
There is no recalibrated or sanitized way to conduct the war that Trump and Stephen Miller are waging on American cities right now. That’s because it’s a campaign of deliberate terror.
The policy *is* the terror, and the terror *is* the policy.
