"After he said he still wasn’t afraid, the officer handcuffed him before putting him into the back of an SUV. “They came back three times and they asked me if I was afraid yet, to which I replied, ‘Hell no, I’m not afraid of you, and I’m never going to be afraid of you.’”
The Minneapolis pastor had observed "ICE agents circling a young woman who appeared to be Hispanic" and insisted they take him instead of harassing her. An agent then “came, got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, ‘Are you afraid now?’” trib.al/kv6rA7r

Finally watching Heated Rivalry and it’s fine and looks great visually but the amount of teal and orange colour grading is so overwhelming that there’s a shot in episode 3 in the smoothie shop that is meant to be direct daylight and it felt like the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen by contrast.

Yesterday I suggested that we write all to the editor of the Toronto Sun about Bryan Passifiume celebrating ICE murdering a mother in the street, and SO MANY OF YOU sent me receipts. You all rock so hard. Here is mine.

He doesn't have legal expenses because ICE will pay for them. This is just giving him some walking around money to say well done after he's already had the best day of his life.
There’s a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross’s legal expenses for murdering Renee Good.

This violates GoFundMe’s Terms of Service. Everyone must report it.

Is this Noah’s first ever good opinion?
When people you normally disagree with say something right, it’s good to say so. Noah Smith is right here, and being right in the knowledge that many of his followers will be furious.

ICE shot a man in Glen Burnie and the story they told was contradicted by:

1. ICE’s own photos
2. Bystander video
3. Lawyer for another immigrant at the scene
4. Anne Arundel County Police

Now ICE is revising its story.

Canadians who oppose Washington’s barefaced imperial violence in Venezuela—and Ottawa’s complicity in it—must mobilize and raise our voices for change. As Owen Schalk writes, it is our responsibility to the hemisphere, and to the planet, on which we live.
Trump’s war on Venezuela is a war on Latin America
The US has launched direct, illegal strikes on Venezuela, kidnapping President Nicolás Maduro and targeting civilians and infrastructure. Trump openly signals plans to seize resources, while allies an...

I broke the story yesterday that masked ICE agents (not DOJ) were removing items including a personal computer from the home of Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. I have yet to see a single news outlet cover this or an elected official even acknowledge it.
NEW: These are ICE agents removing evidence from the shooter's home. They are not DOJ, they are Jonathan Ross's friends and coworkers, not DOJ.

This agent removing Ross's personal computer was reported yesterday Jan 9 for boxing in a volunteer and telling them "I'll dedicate my next arrest to you"

NEW: It appears billionaire Bill Ackman has donated $10k to a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good.

Ackman has reposted the fundraiser but hasn’t posted about his own donation.

Youtube just recommended a video from a channel called “Just One More Thing” and it’s not a Columbo channel, which is rude.

Carney just announced more RCMP funding.
Folks in Canada watching this horror unfold should not think of it as an American problem.
During a housing crisis, alarming food insecurity, and cuts to every meaningful social support at the federal and provincial level Canada is hiring more CBSA agents & increasing border & military spending.

The Endless Week is easily one of the best novels I read last year.
"I know the final form is there when my corrections risk damaging the text and when I myself decide the orientation of things, when it’s no longer the text that decides."

ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis or we WILL lock up our own citizens
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey says 29 people were arrested in downtown last night during a noise demonstration at a hotel reportedly housing ICE agents: "For those that are taking the bait and causing property damage or otherwise, there are consequences. We're holding the line here all the way."
