Meanwhile, in Minneapolis, the Montreal Canadians are hiding from ICE in their hotel.

United States cannot host the World Cup.

Nations must boycott this. Wherever you are in the world, write your politicians and say they should boycott all games playing in the United States, only play Canada/Mex.

There is a case to be made that any board of a university that signed an agreement that required paying a fee has breached their fiduciary duty and I think somebody should explore it
The Trump administration is no longer trying to get cash from Harvard as it seeks a settlement. At this point, the White House seems happy to get a signature on anything they can call a compact.

The funniest thing about this is the utter lack of imagination. The right can only think in tight hierarchies and military-esque structures because those are the structures that maintain their power. What a tiny world these people live in.
🚨 Documents leaked to me reveal a federal watchlist of American protesters suspected of being Antifa - including its supposed leader.

One Department of Homeland Security document says a 29-year-old resident of Portland "is the leader of Antifa":

@apnews.com TikTik post states: "Bystanders documenting immigrations enforcement activities in Minneapolis end up in a confrontation with officers." (That's AP's typo.)

AP's has it in "Most Watched Videos." This isn't a serious treatment of the story and ignores the chase with the gun! apnews.com

I recognized this from an image Minneapolis City Council Member @jchavezmpls.bsky.social shared. The location is Powderhorn Park. He tells us the image shown is from yesterday morning, 01 Feb 2026.

I can't understand why there's no NEWS story anywhere. @apnews.com merely posted that TikTok video. ⬆️
This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

"Leaks" were constant--in quotation marks because the flow of info about deliberations to the public was steady during and after a case and few thought of this as leaking. It was the justices themselves who leaked the info; there were no modern day clerks until the late 19th c. 3/6

For at least the first 100 years of the nation, members of the Court were highly accessible b/c they rode circuit--they traveled to their assigned circuit to preside primarily (though not exclusively) over federal trials. They spent lots of time w/ "the public" on circuit & in the capital. 2/6

The idea that the Court should operate entirely in secret is a modern phenomenon. The idea that the Court should be separated from the public is a modern phenomenon. Earlier generations did not accept a powerful, isolated & secretive Court and we shouldn't either 1/6

Chandler is Portland-famous BECAUSE HE LETS PEOPLE USE HIS BATHROOM in his apartment across the street from the Portland ICE facility. He became a local legend bc he's NICE!

He's literally a kind kid, nearby. The total opposite of a thug from ICE/DHS. 🤣

My hot take is that we should feel more upset by the public and tax exempt nonprofit entities that are willing to pay these fees using what is for what are essentially insights available from equally qualified substitutes for a fraction of the price.
I bring this up - well, for lots of reasons. Ezra Klein’s rates were going around a little while ago. (More than 10 times what I was offered.) He doesn't have to do that. He could say no. The Times pays him plenty. He could just give talks when he feels like it. You don’t have to monetize yourself.

Also, every celebrity man accused of sexual violence has a little pseudo-journalist constructing DARVO narratives for them on social media now.

At the same time the Epstein Files are reinforcing how protected sexual abusers really are, Neil Gaiman is using the nightmarish sexual violence allegations against him to market his next book. His DARVO defense is the first selling point. Rape culture is everywhere and unavoidable.
