He is going to be tried by the federal government for the crimes they do have jurisdiction for (still facing a life sentence).

And after that, he is going to be tried by the New York AG for murder, even while he's locked in federal prison for the first set of crimes (stalking, etc.).

People are reading this headline thinking it means he's not going to be jailed for life due to murdering the CEO.

It's only that the federal government can't try him for murder, because his crime doesn't fall under the jurisdiction of the federal government.

‘I Have Nowhere to Go!’: Michigan Cops Caught on Video Abusing Homeless Black Person Who Entered Bus Station for Warmth During Freezing Temperatures "Caught on video: Michigan cops brutalize homeless Black person seeking shelter in freezing temperatures. Shocking abuse unfolds at city'...

On a night of life-threatening cold, a homeless person entered a Lansing bus station seeking refuge from the freezing temperatures.

Video shows police slamming them to the ground and pinning them with knees on their neck as they plead, "I'm here because it's cold outside, and I have nowhere to go."

Flock Exposed Its AI-Powered Cameras to the Internet. We Tracked Ourselves Flock left at least 60 of its people-tracking Condor PTZ cameras live streaming and exposed to the open internet.

They didn’t mention Flock, but they can easily ID people via their license plates as well

The first part is well-known, but the second half? It’s good to get confirmation that it’s happening as well archive.ph/zUnaX

I am going to show every one of your explainers to my children as an anchor for discussion.

Thank you for bringing civics back to our city, Mr. Mayor.

The City’s Budget is our future. And you deserve to know how it works.

That last paragraph is cringe

I know members of the U.S. House of Representatives who have been kept in the dark from these deals as they are done out of the public eye. It’s as undemocratic a process as I’ve ever seen.

@weareoversight.bsky.social ?

Today is Fred Korematsu Day so it seems appropriate to remind everyone that putting people in concentration camps based on their ethnicity and nationality is wrong and whatever you convict you of today they will be wrong always.

They want to ethnically, religiously, and patriarchally cleanse this country of all dissenters from their fever dream. We should be acting with nothing less than unified, active opposition to this murderous campaign.

This part makes me so angry.

Why do they think these journalists are forced out of their media institutions in the first place???

The lack of context is intentional and complicit.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

very fun to think that there are at least four votes for "the president can unilaterally rewrite a constitutional amendment"

Antifa used to unmask neo-Nazis, now it’s exposing ICE: ‘Predators don’t get anonymity’ Following in a long American tradition of identifying fascists, a network of leftists has set out to name and shame Trump’s immigration agents

Truly essential read

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s termination of Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans and Haitians was unlawful, a Ninth Circuit panel found.

Yeah I just do not think most people realize they are, themselves, bad-faith actors until a particular repression hits them

This is so damn good

Best gas masks “How did these people go out and get gas masks?” AG Bondi asked.

A fantastic read from @sarahjeong.bsky.social on what it's like to be gassed and the violence in the streets right now. On a meta level, I also love the framing; the title and card make it look like just another product buying guide, but it is very much not that.

Even in its most seemingly benign manifestations, systemic white supremacy is violent, it is traumatic, and our complicity in it is killing people.
