BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors

Yep. The polling data we obtained shows that more than two thirds of young men disapprove of ICE enforcement and oppose deporting longtime residents with jobs and no criminal records:

Vast camps are central to Trumpism. Stephen Miller has long been very excited about them. Backlash is another sign that opposition to Trump/Miller runs deeper than revulsion at ICE. There's real resistance to the whole ideological project of mass deportations. 4/

Every American needs to watch this:

I hope lawyers, secretaries of state, and state attorneys general are preparing for what’s coming.

Do they all get deported now? Is that how this works?

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”

Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

New GOP anti-voting bill may be the most dangerous attack on voting rights ever The MEGA Act represents one of the most catastrophic proposals for democracy in the United States.

Republicans in Congress have unveiled a new bill that would impose the most extreme voting restrictions ever proposed at the federal level. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Is this how these warehouses are being bought by DHS/ICE without municipal and county governments knowing until the deed transfer is registered?

An Oklahoma Republican state senator has proposed a moratorium on new data centers until late 2029, so the state can study how data centers affect utility rates, the environment & property values, reports @stateline.org. Should lawmakers in Harrisburg propose a similar moratorium for Pennsylvania?

Immigrant Safety Act: Bill to ban immigrant detention in New Mexico heads to governor's desk "If the bill becomes law — it'll make it a crime for these counties, any county, any local government to contract with ICE to house ICE detainees," KOAT legal expert John Day said.

Bravo, New Mexico! PA instead says, “Bring us ICE money!” 🤬😢

Wow. MAGA Mikey thinks he can school the Pope on what the bible says and means.

What's been weird to learn is that other leaders of institutions act the same way. Some of them hoard and protect their influence like it's money because they, too, are rich. You don't get rich by giving your money away and (they seem to believe) you don't get powerful by exercising your power. But, in fact, that is often how power works: using power can help build power. At the very least, power holds no value unless it is exercised, which alone is a valid reason to exercise it. If you are powerful but never use your power, you are not powerful. I'm talking here primarily about the huge, obvious loci of power — the centers of power that exist in part to serve as checks on other centers of power. Congress vis-a-vis the presidency. The media relative to the government. Higher education in contrast to misinformation. But they often aren't serving as checks on what's unfolding, or are obviously and bizarrely using their power only sparingly, garden hoses aimed at protecting their own homes from the wildfire. So it's left to individuals, who have stepped up where institutions have not.

I wrote about Minnesota and ICE and how average Americans are reclaiming the power that the administration is abusing.

Didn't this happen in My Cousin Vinny?

Seems 💯 accurate.

You listening, Fetterman?

Except maybe for Mitch McConnell, who single-handedly destroyed essential congressional and judicial guardrails, and could have stopped ALL of this from happening in the first place. And he’ll never be held accountable…at least in this life.

The people of Minneapolis have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. The first time a city's population has ever been nominated.

There has to be an investigation into the many individuals who committed heinous crimes alongside Epstein.

There should be a special prosecutor, or a congressional investigation, that looks into the crimes and the ongoing cover-up. It has to happen.

James Comer is bringing Hillary Clinton before his committee to testify about Epstein despite having zero contact with him, but not Epstein’s neighbor Howard Lutnick who lied about his connections to Epstein over many years which is proven in the files.

ICE’s excuse for wearing masks has never actually manifested There have been incidents of harassment and threats. But there are no apparent incidents in which identified ICE officers have been assaulted off-duty.

Finally got around to a bit of research I'd been meaning to explore, and: There is no documented instance of an ICE officer being identified and assaulted while off duty because he wasn't masked. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...
