Spectacular reporting by @wired.com
NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign.

Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship.

Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

I just point out that when people started denigrating and minimizing the humanities, by strange coincidence everyone started turning into nazis.

The states, all led by Democrats, used the grants to support a wide variety of functions, including H.I.V. prevention and surveillance.

They want to kill cities.
This is happening in Sunset Park as well. Local librarian tells me many fewer families are coming in. Businesses are suffering. The streetscape is a little less vibrant. It’s absolutely heartbreaking and enraging. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/07/o...

Watergate, but if someone was killed.
NYT confirming MS NOW reporting:

Prosecutors began investigating Renee Good's killing, then Washington told them to stop.

Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.

Which organization is indexing these files?

A trustworthy source needs to be the more protected Library of Alexandria for this, with notes about those files that needed victim data to be appropriately redacted.

politicians should spend less time managing expectations of by telling voters what a minority party can't pass and instead engage in this four-step process:

1) say what you think is right
2) obstruct whatever isn't that
3) lose if that's how it goes
4) remind voters who passed the evil law

The century-old path, from Gandhi to King to Minneapolis observers
"Defiance through compassion." Sounds like something Shaxs would say!✊🏿🖖🏿
Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

The proof of the oligarchs is what they do
The Washington Post has laid off least 14 climate journalists, newsroom sources told @sammyroth.bsky.social, effectively decimating one of the most important reporting teams in American climate journalism.

A sad, terrifying, enraging day for the planet.

tomorrow i would really like to challenge a few folks with larger followings than me to adopt a rent and raise it in one day.

my little group chat and my followers have paid like 70 families rents in the past four days. i believe that some of y’all could help us keep one family housed.
today's report:

our "adopt a rent" venmo campaign paid 43 families rents who were at risk of evictions, including several moms of 4+ children

this is the way to get rent paid fast. like. 1000x better than any other way.

on a separate but related point i do think a large source of "destroy that tranny and keep her as a sex slave" type of transmisogyny is rooted in knowing that before we transition, a lot of us hear men speaking "amongst men" and that terrifies them
