Here's your chance to do something about the people being starved and beaten in Broadview ICE custody.

Share this post, and I'll donate $1 to the Midwest Immigration Bond Fund (www.mibfc.org).

And if you make a donation to them, let me know how much and I'll match it 1:1.
Good work by the community, and shame on Mesa PD.
Mesa Police tried to charge a community and union leader with criminal trespassing for documenting ICE activity today. Martín Hernandez was released after pressure from the community and leadership from Rep. Lorena Austin. 👏🏽

Remember that when you're at an action, you're under no obligation to go along with shit some stranger is doing/telling you to do, and if something doesn't sit right about them, consider putting some distance between them and yourself.
Cupp's been regularly protesting w the left at PDX ICE, even tho he makes open antisemitic common cause w the groyper streamers.

He is a Juche-Islamist Nazi who was in a threesome w the founders of the satanic neo-Nazi Temple ov Blood (Atomwaffen occult shit).

We prefer blunt headlines over mealy-mouthed "he-said-they-said."
Broad legal precedence holds that just following orders, colloquially known as the “Nuremberg defense” as it was used unsuccessfully by senior Nazi officials to justify their actions under Adolf Hitler, doesn’t absolve troops.

Compromising a data center using transformers would be a pretty neat trick, I'll give them that.
1. EXCLUSIVE

Musk’s xAI has secretly built its AI supercomputer, Collusus, using Chinese-made transformers, a security risk that leaves it vulnerable to espionage or sabotage

The use of Chinese components was previously unreported

“What have we been taught our entire life? Feeding the hungry, clothing the naked. This is basic, basic stuff. Christians have always been people who are supposed to be there for the marginalized, the people that are being hurt by systems, the people that don’t have a voice.”
NEW: Earlier this month, I spent the day with the Luhmanns — a family rooted in theologically conservative Christianity.

In the morning, the homeschooled teenage sons tracked ICE.

In the afternoon, the mother aided an immigrant mother whose partner was deported. religionnews.com/2025/11/25/h...

Quite the day he had last week: bsky.app/profile/dcmi...
An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀

We want to find the people who loved DCist — but don’t yet know The 51st exists.

I think immigration makes this country great and I don't care what anyone else thinks.
This is also a place being rhetorically pro-immigration could be good. "I think immigration makes this country great and I don't care what anyone else thinks."

Western Michigan/Eastern Michigan should be required by law to be played at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.
We have ONE FINAL DAY of Midweek MACtion, and it starts early at 3:30pm Central.

Remember that if you're nearly Ypsilanti, all tickets are $5, and if you get there early enough, they'll have MACcoon scarves for the first people through the door!

Had me in the first half, not gonna lie.
If you're lucky in life you may one day meet that person who, no matter how ordinary they may seem to the rest of the world, will always be special in your sight.

Cherish that person. Banish all thoughts of others. Sell Madueke. Bench your strikers. Start him up top against Barcelona. That's love.

As far as i can tell, people are recording/yelling while wearing their pajamas and sandals, and the feds respond by pointing their weapons at the crowd and then gassing a residential block.

Paraphrasing, but so thankful for strong, powerful guidance like this:

What's at stake is whether the backlash lasts several electoral cycles or several generations, and the outcome will be determined not by MAGA, which is being itself, but by liberals and progressives remembering who we are.
"My mentor always tells me, 'Kim, dogs don’t bark at parked cars." They’re coming after critical race theory, 1619, intersectionality because these ideas mobilized people. They gave them the language to actually articulate what they were seeing with their own eyes," says Kimberlé Crenshaw.

NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

New piece:

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

"in 2005 the city cut a deal (finalized by the city council in 2013) with billionaire Steve Ross and his Related Companies to develop Hudson Yards with a total of 13,500 housing units, of which some 4,000 were to be affordable. In the end, only about 600 affordable units were produced."

Oof.
