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.

I think, every so often, about how the student protesters in South Korea figured out there was a finite supply of tear gas, and then staged retreating marches that caused police to burn off most of it, before the big "bring your auntie and kids" marches that ultimately toppled the dictatorship.

I'm sorry, but I just think it's very telling when we differentiate between ICE's killing of American citizens versus undocumented immigrants. And I'm seeing that a lot right now.

Just sent a memory card -theyre still looking for another ~70/250 dash cams/memory cards to help protect legal observers. Obviously, only a layer of protection, but it can help. Please contribute if you can.
ICE observers in the Twin Cities are in need of dash cams to prevent further intimidation and frivolous claims.
Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...
If you've been looking for a way to help, we'd sure appreciate it!

the fascist mouthpieces have a massive resource advantage.
this is a way to chip away at that advantage: give valuable stuff to real journalists at real news outlets (and real independent journalists.)

Democrats need to understand that they can just say “It’s insane to threaten Greenland” and “I don’t think ICE should murder Americans in the street” and you don’t need to pretend to link it to the affordability crisis.

It is intensely annoying to watch cable news speculate about what happened in this ICE shooting when there is ample video available. The woman was driving away, and an agent stepped out and shot her in the face. They don't need to pretend they don't know what happened.

I have seen three videos now, all of them contradict Tricia's statement. And every single journalist who interacts with her knows that she lies all the time in ways that can be proven, which should also be stated in the piece.
the nyt says that no version of events in minneapolis can be "verified independently." but that's not true! there are multiple videos proving that the ICE version of events is a total lie. maybe the nyt can, y'know, watch one of them? www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

The person shot in Minneapolis was driving a Honda SUV covered in bumper stickers. She wasn't a fucking domestic terrorist. She was a resident concerned about her neighbors being kidnapped.

I posted this before reading accounts of the video. I knew it would be the case because their statement sounded like when my high school freshmen try to lie to me— I know exactly what’s going on in their brain and how they’re trying to spin something. They’re such bad liars but it doesn’t matter.
The, like, “thankfully all officers are expected to make a full recovery” with no mention of injuries… gtfo.
The statements from ICE are chock full of obvious lies/stretching of the truth, my GOD

This is so funny and I hope at least a little satisfying for Oakland. Oakland deserves so much better.
