I have appreciated Amanda’s efforts here so I’m disappointed she’s wrapping things up by spreading misinformation. I can assure you as someone whose neighborhood has been crawling with ICE in recent days that we are not in the “aftermath” of anything.
Actually, one more thing. The story isn’t over. But it’s mostly aftermath stories now. It’s not going to be people who are there to cover as it happens. It’s going to be quieter work that you’ll see in print in 9 months.

"The American media makes things that are abnormal seem normal. The European press doesn’t do that. So you’ll see when they report on Trump’s rambling Davos speech, they will say it made no sense. In the US press, you’ll just see excerpts and an attempt to sanitize it." — @anneapplebaum.bsky.social

ICE is still doing checkpoints in Minneapolis like we are an occupied territory. Life remains really hard here thanks to Trump's thugs.

Trump has posted on Truth Social about 65 times in the last 90 minutes, including a video he posted at 8:44 PM PT describing election fraud lies that shows racist AI images of Michelle and Barack Obama as monkeys at the end. I’ve confirmed this is real and watched it myself.

Trump: "That's the only thing that was mentioned about me. Now, about Democrats? Some really bad stuff. But about me -- Wolf and Epstein conspired against me so I would lose the election. So that takes care of Epstein as far as Trump is concerned. It's a Democrat problem."

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers.

And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate.

Today it roars in Minneapolis and around the country — at the jack-booted thugs occupying our cities.

It is disgusting how Pamela Jo Bondi's Department of Justice works overtime to protect the perpetrators in Jeffrey Epstein's pedophilia enterprise but has no interest in protecting the victims.
BREAKING: The Department of Justice left multiple unredacted photos of fully nude women or girls exposed as part of Friday’s dump of more than 3.5 million pages of files related to the investigations and prosecutions of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislane Maxwell.

I’m sure he’s bluffing, he’ll never do it. But I still hope he does, because that’s going to backfire beautifully and we all want to see it.

Why are so many remote controls black? A few are grey or white, but I have four remote controllers, all black.

If we could get remote controls that come in different colours, it would be
easier to tell them apart and if they were in brighter colours, we wouldn’t lose them so quickly.

I believe this is a reference to the bill that funds everything but DHS, and severs DHS from the six-bill funding package. We need it to pass to get the leverage to defund ICE with the Sanders amendment. Just FYI.
