I cannot stop laughing

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Alberto Castañeda Mondragón says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance. But the violence he endured last month in Minnesota while being detained is seared into his battered brain. He remembers Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulling him from a friend’s car on Jan. 8 outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him and striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he said he was beaten again. He also remembers the emergency room and the intense pain from eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

today someone on here said we need AI because having talent is ableist and I am barely exaggerating

Penn State hockey star Gavin McKenna faces felony, accused of assault in State College An affidavit of probable cause filed Wednesday detailed the accusations against the 18-year-old.

i'll say it once, i'll say it for the rest of my life: everything, even hockey, comes back to Pennsylvania 😈

good god

you know it's a colossally stupid blunder when even my sister, who is a nurse with more pressing things to do, calls me and is like "what the fuck is going on with the washington post"

Mass layoffs at Washington Post; hundreds of journalists cut as Bezos gives millions to Melania Trump | The NewsGuild - TNG-CWA The Washington Post on Wednesday announced a devastating number of layoffs to journalists, decimating one of the most important newsrooms in the country.

Jeff Bezos gave $75 million to support Melania Trump's vanity film, but he doesn't have the money for the hundreds of journalists he laid off at The Post today.

Democracy dies with Bezos – unless we fight back. Here's how you can help:

Pinned lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Aug 19, 2021 Almost three years ago, my editor called me early one November morning. A wildfire had sparked near a town called Paradise, he said. Could I go? (1/13) 0:02 / 0:10 lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · 47m I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated. Quote lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Jan 25 Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.) But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

On the same day the Washington Post announces their layoffs, ProPublica of all places is ready to strike.

How has journalism gotten to the place where the people who power the best newsrooms in the country are treated so poorly by the people that run them?

I do need everyone to know that I got a big laugh today from this botched press release announcing the prosecutors coming together as “FOFO”

This is one of the most touching and heartbreaking things I have ever read.

in a lot of cases, not journalists! i can tell you that!

now this is just me, but i personally am wondering what people who are in charge of journalism think journalism is

ICE detained a 2-year-old girl in Minneapolis and put the child on a flight to a detention center in Texas, despite a court ordering her release: www.startribune.com/agents-detai...

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

US citizen says ICE removed him from his Minnesota home in his underwear after warrantless search The detention is part of a larger surge of federal agents in Minnesota, leading to backlash over warrantless arrests and aggressive tactics.

Federal immigration agents forced open a door and detained a U.S. citizen in his Minnesota home at gunpoint without a warrant, then led him out onto the streets in his underwear in subfreezing conditions, according to his family and videos reviewed by The Associated Press.

Prolific prosecution witness tapped for Board of Pardons Shapiro’s pick is opposed by clemency advocates and criminal defense attorneys.

On Tuesday, I had never heard of Dr. John O'Brien II, Gov. Shapiro's new pick for the Board of Pardons.

Today, I am aware of more than two dozen cases where Dr. O'Brien was paid hundreds of dollars to say essentially the same thing: The defendant cannot be rehabilitated.

PA opioid settlement money now open to public defenders Bucks County can now use opioid settlement money for public defense, a change that could influence how other Pennsylvania counties spend their funds.

Pennsylvania's opioid trust approved settlement money for a public defender in Bucks County, a slight reversal from their previous position which discouraged local governments from spending on defender's offices. www.spotlightpa.org/news/2026/01...
