The only reason we know it's not real it the lack of fat and liver spots and blazing orange spackle.

I do think it would be amazing if hundreds of protesters just showed up dressed like ICE. They’d be absolutely baffled, they’d have no way to tell who’s who. They’re all dressed in off-the-rack Cabelas clothes since they don’t seem to have a standard uniform so it’s easy.

I don't know if there's such a thing as a "world cyberwar" but I think we are in one? and the US is determined to lose it. 🧵

Today the admin is mass-firing the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the nation's cybersecurity protection across all levels of government.

Remember that Republicans were hacked at the same time as Democrats back in 2015/16. The D stuff was leaked - remember Panetta’s risotto? - but not the R’s. Perhaps it was leveraged.

This is what ice is doing

The Bulwark @thebulwark.com · 1d

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

Maybe--just work with me here, @sencortezmasto.govpeeps.us--you should stop voting to give Russ Vought more authority to defy the interests of Nevadans?

Nevada Sen. @cortezmasto.senate.gov calls on Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to provide more information about the gigantic solar project in her state that just got axed with zero public explanation (via @lasvegassun.bsky.social)

In a statement sent to the Las Vegas Sun, U.S. Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto lambasted the administration’s “lack of transparency” and urged Burgum to provide clarity.

“Solar energy production makes electric bills cheaper, creates good-paying jobs, and drives economic growth,” Cortez Masto said.

Oh noooooo!

After a jury found Greg Bovino to be full of shit in LA, a judge found him to be full of shitshow in Chicago.

[This is Judge April Perry's opinion on her TRO.]

storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This indicates to the Court both bias and lack of objectivity. The lens through which we view the
world changes our perception of the events around us. Law enforcement officers who go into an
event expecting “a shitshow” are much more likely to experience one than those who go into the
event prepared to de-escalate it. Ultimately, this Court must conclude that Defendants’
declarants’ perceptions are not reliable.6

Do you think Corey Lewandowski, Kristi Noem, or Stephen Miller himself thought it'd be cute to falsely claim FPS asked for a Guard invasion of the courthouse?

Finally, the Court notes its concern about a third declaration submitted by Defendants, in
which the declarant asserted that the FPS “requested federalized National Guard personnel to
support protection of the Federal District Court on Friday, October 10, 2025.” Doc. 62-3. This
purported fact was incendiary and seized upon by both parties at oral argument. It was also
inaccurate, as the Court noted on the record. To their credit, Defendants have since submitted a
corrected declaration, and the affiant has declared that they did not make the error willfully. Doc.

Yesterday they were shooting priests in the head with rubber bullets. Today they're arresting journalists. If you have anyone in your life who doesn't regularly follow the news and doesn't understand how bad things are and how bad they're about to get, you need to tell them right now. Time is short.
