Update: the number is now at least six DOJ attorneys who resigned after Trump ordered investigators to target the victim instead of the agent who killed her.

oh you better believe bluesky is stalingrad posting.
To any ICE agents reading this who are from down south—you have never experienced anything like this cold. Our European climate equivalent is literally Stalingrad. It will hurt to breathe. You will be outside in it. So will we, but we are used to it.

Next week is what will break you.
We've lead charmed weather lives so far in January.
Temperatures are +5F to +10F across MN so far this month. 🌡️
We're about to be reminded what persistent cold and occasional snow feels like. ❄️
MSP could bottom out -10 to -20 next Tue.

As hard as Schumer got burned by capitulating on the shutdown his first time around, I think it's going to be 100x worse if Senate Dems don't take a stand on defunding ICE in the upcoming budget fight.

so between "if you work for the feds on immigration, seek counsel for the sake of your immortal soul" from the bishop of dallas and now "clergy, update your wills then hit the streets" from the bishop of new hampshire, I feel that a shift has begun in 2026 in the rhetoric from episcopal leadership

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.

Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

Really listen to it.

Big F in chat for the State Department lackeys who have to say with a straight face that the United States supports the right to peacefully oppose the government and opposes autocracy.

Gee, what a fucking surprise that trump, the convicted felon, serial rapist, and BFF of convicted child sex traffickers Jeff Epstein and Ghislane Maxwell would LIE about something. Wow. So fucking shocked.

Pop was a law enforcement officer. He knew most of the local police in the town we lived in. When I got my license at 16, he told me "Don't push these assholes, Tim. They're little men who are looking for a reason to hurt people. Do what they say. These fuckers peeked in high school."

Today's ICE.

At the farmer's market today an older gentleman couldn't figure out how to make his venmo work (helped by some younger shoppers) then walked away from the apples he'd just bought right after the vendor reminded him not to do that.
A man was taken to the hospital Wednesday night after crashing into a tree on a steep section of Marin Avenue in the Berkeley Hills.

This line is also funny because because no one needs an acronym to know that Erick Erickson is awful.
it's sort of funny that white is now an epithet on the right if paired with woman and liberal

I remember when a writing teacher asked us to raise our hand if we've made more than $5 from our writing. Three of us did.

We were told that's enough to put us in the top 1% of most successful writers through history. A little hyperbole, but not far off. I still think about it.

I think Blue States ought to be giving serious thought to the actual 2nd Amend.--i.e. a state militia that is separate from the National Guard which can't be federalized and answers ultimately to the governor. Trump's first year has demonstrated the need for security forces that don't answer to him.
