Ender, When The Walls Fell

The thing about the skeleton and the luge is that you have to learn whether you would be good at the skeleton or the luge, and I don't know how we don't hear about more people dying from finding out if they were good at the skeleton or the luge.

I think @wajali.bsky.social was clear. He acknowledges the current fight, but asks @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social to lead on the long term goal of abolishing ICE. I don’t understand the leader’s reticence on that very simple, and frankly moderate position.

The U.S. Department of Defense has barred military personnel from enrolling in courses at many of the nation’s top universities, including Harvard, Yale, MIT, and Johns Hopkins. A leaked email is said to contain the full list of affected schools. Shared by MeidasTouch.

I realize media doesn’t think it’s a big deal that Trump, Vance & Hegseth continue to give partisan political speeches to troops, evidenced by the fact that they are never asked about it nor are members of Congress, but it is one of the most dangerous things happening right now.

Oh no! Boy, if only anyone could have possibly seen this coming!

This is concerning, that a rep feels they must post this. A lot in our coalition has felt the same way and worried about it, but didn’t think we’d be here publicly.

"zoomers are killing the bar industry" oh interesting was it zoomers who decided a drink should cost seventeen dollars

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

Homeland Security Wants Social Media Sites to Expose Anti-ICE Accounts

You didn’t think all those concentration camps they want to build are only for immigrants, did you? (Gift article)

Nauseated and furious that this is what we are, the crimes carried out in our names. Cruel, petty, deplorable, inhuman. How we treat others is the measure of our own worth, and we are failing miserably. We need to hold those responsible to account before the world holds us all to account.

German Officials Needle Trump at Munich Security Conference

German Chancellor Merz; ‘A divide has opened up between Europe and the United States. Vice President JD Vance said this very openly here in Munich a year ago. He was right. The culture war of the MAGA movement is not ours.” Gift Link

TACO President.

I'm sorry, but no one can just "erase" scientific findings by decree. It's flatly absurd to think so. The government can declare they aren't going to act on the science, try to hide the science, try to discredit the science, but that doesn't change reality.

Bondi’s Paperwork at Epstein Hearing Suggests Trump’s DOJ Is Spying on Congress Bondi’s notes at a House hearing included the search history of a lawmaker who has been reviewing the Epstein files.

As Bondi launched into various tirades against lawmakers, photojournalists managed to snag a picture of her notes, showing that the Justice Department has been tracking the search history of lawmakers who are combing through the unredacted Epstein files.

It should be an immediate disqualifier for any representative, military leader, or presidential cabinet member to fawn over a candidate or sitting president as “the greatest X in the history of our country”. It’s embarrassing and hyperbolic. Have some humility, for fucks sake.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

A reminder: ICE vehicles waste a whopping 80% of energy in their fuel.

EVs are propelled by entirely different mechanisms. Energy enters the vehicle as electricity, which directly powers the drivetrain making it 3-4x more efficient.

Because lawless ICE goons are harassing, arresting, and murdering people who are citizens, you idiot.

Still think it's really fucked up that the President can target a whole state and terrorize it and do ethnic cleansing and whatnot and life just goes on I guess without impeachment or a government shutdown or something.

Meme of Ron Swanson from Parks and Rec. First panel is him saying, “Abolish ICE.” Second panel is him holding up a hand and objecting, “Wait, wait, I worry that what you heard was ‘increase oversight of ICE and reign in their excesses.’” Third panel is him closing his hand into a fist and clarifying, “What I said was ‘Abolish ICE.’ Do you understand?”

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

It’s like they say their piece and retreat into a crowd of dems for smug smiles and high fives, acting like they really accomplished something. Meanwhile the person they berated goes on breaking the law and acting in bad faith.

Strong words, but I’d like to see some strong actions. Naming the problem is a first and long overdue step, what are we going to DO about it?

Goldman: “You & your untrained, unqualified, unvetted, unidentified agents are intentionally terrorizing our cities & communities all over this country to avoid accountability for their excessive force & their lawless actions — that is why you're wearing masks. So no one can hold you accountable”

Angus: It’s like having to negotiate with Al Capone in his syphilitic period. You want to shut down the bridge? Go ahead. Every day, 1,500 nurses from Canada go to help keep Detroit’s health care system going. I personally think those nurses should be working in Canada.

Reading the Fulton County affidavit now, which seems to say more about “if” there was probable cause than establishing that there actually is. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/10/u...

DOJ trying to indict opposition lawmakers for accurately stating the law is an authoritarian weaponization of the justice system.

Grand jurors returning a no bill is patriotism in action.
