This arrest appears to be in direct violation of a temporary restraining order prohibiting DHS officers from arresting journalists. The officers here may well be subject to contempt of court. protectdemocracy.org/wp-content/u...

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

That sound you hear is plaintiff lawyers popping champagne corks and DOJ lawyers groaning.

Can you think of a single movie in which there is a video from the government denouncing its political opponents playing on a loop in public spaces in which that government was the good guy?

This blatantly stupid horseshit? Again?

We will need Nuremberg-like trials

His slip of the tongue reveals who’s really in charge. trib.al/mIvP0yE

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

NEW: @CDCgov hit hard by massive firings that several staff describe to me as a “bloodbath.”
Among those RIFd:

Entering the Anne Frank stage of the administration I see

Caitlin Flanagan @CaitlinPacific I’ve missed hearing Woody Allen’s voice - I’d been so rattled this week and there he was, his full self. ⁦ @bariweiss ⁩ is the perfect interviewer. She seemed almost like a daughter to him - in a way she is. We all are. Order Life with Baum!

like a daughter to him

Disgusted barbie

Phew. I figured but wanted to confirm 😁

ER doc here! There is no such thing as “an ER model” hospital. An ER w/o a hospital is like a bandaid on a bullet hole. What if you need surgery? Cardiac cath? Specialist care? Increased distance means delays, which mean real harms & even deaths. But, also, when hospitals close their ERs close, too…

Inquiring gay minds want to know.

Presbyterian minister David Black on CNN, who was shot with pepper balls while praying outside an ICE facility.

Of all the clerics they could have popped, those ICE idiots had to hit Hot Priest.

Fucking bread pudding brain

Wrestler or “wrestler😉”?

flipping the Fourth Amendment to think it protects the government

Why Did We Love “To Catch a Predator”? A new documentary explores how the show turned troubled individuals’ actions into a quasi-pornographic exhibit meant for an audience’s titillation.

Grim & terrific @naomifry.bsky.social review of a documentary about To Catch a Predator: www.newyorker.com/culture/crit...

Another scorcher from Maris!!!

I mean…the daughter is poisoning him, right? Like it feels like the only logical thing. She’s poisoning him to usurp his empire. It’s archetypal so Jo-Jo would love it.

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites The style is unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war.Our analysis of 43 official IDF videos found recycled 3D environments, spatial inaccuracies, and assets lifted from unrelated artists and institutions.We traced over 30 unique assets to Washington-based 3D creator Ian Hubert, who makes bespoke models created for his sci-fi project Dynamo Dream, available to his Patreon subscribers. Models of parking lots, antennas, + pipes were repurposed as Hamas and Iranian military sites

@evanhill · 11m Fascinating work here tracing how the IDF recycled 3D assets from a cyberpunk sci-fi art project, the Scottish Maritime Museum and elsewhere to populate its widely-seen models of supposed enemy locations in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. One of the most infamous, the alleged underground Hamas command center at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, used to justify an unprecedented assault on the biggest medical center in Gaza, was actually an animation the IDF had used the previous year, saying at the time it was a tunnel beneath a UN school.

Losing my mind and what look like video game assets but instead were used to justify war crimes and genocide in the real world

The Stephen Miller Gaffe Every Judge Needs To Bookmark Maybe Miller realizes the 2024 election did not mark the end of history.
