Jonathan Ross will not live well
NEW: Jonathan Ross is former National Guard and Border Patrol and has been part of ICE's SWAT equivalent, a team leader overseeing FBI, ATF, and IRS agents, and a firearms instructor, according to testimony obtained by WIRED. This is from @hudsongiles.bsky.social and me:
ICE Agent Who Reportedly Shot Renee Good Was a Firearms Trainer, Per Testimony
Jonathan Ross told a federal court in December about his professional background, including “hundreds” of encounters with drivers during enforcement actions, according to testimony obtained by WIRED.

spent the whole last five years stressing that they must give much much more money and increasingly elaborate equipment to law enforcement of every stripe and painting it as foolhardy and possibly unamerican to think otherwise. it took all sorts of congresses and presidents to tighten this screw.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

One reason we are losing is that Republicans angry that they can’t teach the Bible as public school curriculum are hard at work proudly abolishing the Department of Education, but outright kidnapping and murder are not enough to get Democratic leadership to say “Abolish ICE”

It is impossible to calm down after seeing this shooting. I have been trying, of course, and it's not the first and won't be the last time that I am injuring myself from stress. We need to hunt these monsters for the rest of their lives.

a video taken by the eyewitness, Emily Heller, shows agents denying a self-identified physician access to the victim and telling bystanders to “just relax.”

“How can I relax? You just killed my fucking neighbor,” Heller responded. “How the fuck do you show up to work every day?”

A cop shot a person three times point blank and instead of the streets being deserted. They filled with people yelling at the cops [who could have shot them too].

"An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots," — DHS

"[The woman] viciously ran over the ICE Officer" — Trump

"A woman attacked them and those surrounding them" — Kristi Noem

All lies. This is a pattern.
DHS Is Lying To You About ICE Shooting a Woman
At least four videos show what really happened when ICE shot a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday. DHS has established itself as an agency that cannot be trusted to live in or present reality.

i agree that this is what they’re trying to do. i don’t think it works out for them the way they think it does.
Like those before it, that insane, vile DHS statement about the Minneapolis shooting isn't about covering anything up. It's performative lying.

They aren't trying to persuade anyone that their agents did nothing wrong. They're trying to project that their agents can get away with anything.

This is the ninth shooting by ICE since September (I did not know that). All of them were into vehicles.

if you're an nba player in the middle of a game, i think what you really need to do is take a long, hard look at the basketball. every game has got one. figure out who has it, and what you need to do to get hold of it. put it through the basket and you could score yourself two points, maybe more

It's hard to describe my interactions with MS. I guarantee you have never spoken to a dumber group of "engineers". But I still pity what they must go through over there. It might not even be their fault that they're like that.
Microsoft is so fucking stupid.

Microsoft renamed Microsoft Office to Microsoft 365 Copilot App

I'm not joking

If this happened to a conservative organizer, Republicans would make her a hero, a household name and a congressional candidate.

Elected Democrats just pretend it isn't happening.

We have published the following update to our article following an email response from the New York Times.

Trans News Network has a policy against platforming bigotry. As such, we have declined to publish the Times' statement which included blatant transphobia.

Their messaging is so fucking incoherent. Maduro was an illegitimate leader who lost in 2024, which is why we're replacing him with his VP instead of the person who won in 2024. We did this to stop fentanyl, which is why he's indicted for cocaine.

We're also occupying Venezuela via Zoom call.
