I mean, she did explain why people like you can't respond to that post--because you don't follow her. Follow her, and you can. Problem solved.

Feds delayed medics who had come to pick up an injured protester. Then, according to confidential incident reports, the agents became aggressive.

I'm not a Ryan Murphy fan. I think he tries to be provocative, but for me his efforts feel messy and immature. This scene sounds pretty damn clumsy, to put it mildly.

I did this years back when I wanted to have a martini outside but it was raining! Here's to you, that dude 🍸

I lit the candle next to this Halloween decoration, and I think it just summoned a Lovecraftian horror from behind my TV.

I definitely wish they'd leave, too! This way they get to have their cake and eat it, too. It's incredibly frustrating. I wish someone would just be like, "You promise?"

It'd be nice if liberal politicians earned a lesson here: no matter how much cop ass you kiss, no matter how much you bend over backwards to cater to them and their budgets, they will never be on your side. There is no loyalty there because ACAB.

Because the threat has often been enough for them to further their goals.

Also, Weiss is wielding her wealthy whiteness here, because it's overwhelmingly wealthy white people who feel safe near cops. She's convinced her wealth and her whiteness will protect her from the fascists. They won't, because she's also 1) a woman, 2) Jewish and 3) queer. Good luck, Bari!

Indeed if you have 1 bad cop and 99 good cops that do nothing, you have 100 bad cops.

Exactly this.

Also, it'd be nice to have a political party that doesn't constantly suck cop dick.

Peter @notalawyer.bsky.social · 16h

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

Not gonna link the troll but Bari Weiss clearly represents “thought police” more than 100,000 Bluesky leftists scolding you for writing a defense of Weiss ever will, and ignoring that reality is clearly designed to curry the favor of thought police. You’re not a free thinker, you’re the boot licker.

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

ICE in Chicago detained two people (that we know of) for filming them today, a cyclist and a neighborhood rapid responder. This in addition to tear gassing another neighborhood and brandishing weapons at rapid response—both things that have also already been going on for weeks.

There are a tremendous number of ICE watchers out in Rogers Park this afternoon after some early morning abductions.

People are guarding churches and patrolling alleyways. Ran into Alderperson Hadden. First timers tell us they're primed and ready to use their whistles.

This is a pro-queer news outlet--they should not be using terminology that anti-queer people use to describe themselves in order to soften their image.

Not sure why this outlet is deferring to the language of our oppressors.
