ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.

“America First” means:
•$20B to Argentina to screw American farmers
•$38B to Israel for genocide
•$??B to Qatar for new Air Force base in Idaho

Meanwhile—US Service members stand in food lines because Trump’s government shutdown has them furloughed without pay. So much winning!
Are we great yet?🤔

My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.

This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

Look, I get critiques of *how* someone conducts an interview.

But Wilson’s congregants include the Sec. of Defense, who invited a pastor in Wilson’s denomination to lead the first of a recurring worship service at the Pentagon.

If anything, it’s odd it took this long for outlets to interview him.

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

NEW: “The significance of the public’s interest in having only well-trained LE officers deployed in their communities and avoiding unnecessary shows of military force in their neighborhoods cannot be overstated."

This was my son's high school. I know students there now. I'm so angry. Fuck these ICE nazis.

Ct notes "troubling trend of [defendants] equating protests with riots" & failing to see difference btwn "citizens...observing, questioning, and criticizing their [govt], and those who are obstructing, assaulting, or doing violence. This indicates to the Court both bias and lack of objectivity." 2/2

From pp. 10-11: "The Court...must make a credibility assessment as to which version of the facts
should be believed....the Court cannot conclude that Defendants’ declarations are reliable."

Court notes "troubling trend of [defendants] equating protests with riots ..." 1/2

Top tier Old Testament joke. No notes.

Not only are the highly addictive, truth-agnostic output generators polluting our information ecosystems and degrading our knowledge practices, they're also materially exacerbating the ongoing effects of climate change in order to accomplish the above at scale.

Heck of a job.

I think my least favorite thing about this era of history is that technology and obscene wealth have synthesized in such a way that the haunted pathologies of rich men spread across the global until they warp reality itself.

We are to some extent living inside Trump and Elon’s brains.

The Virginia Senate just told UVA it’s not getting state funding if it accepts the compact since UVA exists to serve Virginia, its residents, & their interests—not be a tool of the federal govt.

Yes, "bypassing rules meant to ensure that federal officials don’t abuse their power for partisan purposes" is sort of their deal. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Qu'est-ce qui se passe?

Last night John Fetterman was the one Democrat who voted with Republicans to let Trump keep bombing boats in the middle of the ocean. Less than 24 hours later, he says Trump should get a Nobel Peace Prize

One reason why the Constitution broadly protects speech without regard to its content, and why it also protects expressive conduct rather than words alone, is that you never know whether the most profound form of protest against authoritarianism will turn out to be a frog costume.

Amazing news from our friends in California! 🥳

So this IL Hospital Association memo describes an incident where ICE detained a US citizen, gave them HEART PROBLEMS, took them to a hospital where the fought with medical personnel, then left when they realized they detained a CITIZEN.

Since Link is banned, his mutual aid Fridays have gone with him. This was one of the most altruistic things I’ve seen anyone on this site do.

In light of this, I’m gonna try to fill the gap.

Drop your mutual aid requests under this thread and I will repost them for as long as I can.

ICE is openly terrorizing my neighborhood today, including an elementary school, and these asshats need to be held accountable to the fullest possible extent on the other side of all this.

Farm bankruptcies are back in the news, so it's time to pull this chart out again.

Hey look they kept rising during Trump's first term. Then they went way down under Biden.

Now they're up again? So weird. Thanks Farm Bureau for the graphic
