thread about X’s new TOS. tldr is musk can now sue users for any reason in a TX court he basically owns, so he’ll almost certainly win. and this is a platform politicians and journalists largely refuse to leave.
Conservative influencer Ashley St Clair had a baby with Elon Musk in 2024. Things turned sour when she expressed mild support of trans rights. Elon cut child support and sued for custody; his followers made deepfake porn of her on X; she sued X; now X is suing HER!

But this isn’t just a soap opera:

Oh look. The likeliest outcome of pointless economic aggression against your trading partners has joined the party.
Looks like the EU-US trade deal is now dead, with all three major groups in the EU Parliament calling at least for suspension. The downward spiral has already begun.

Ah. I see they've employed the most authoritarian possible motivational tactic. Surely they'll see the folly of such a reckless choice. </sarcasm>

Seriously though this practice ought to be considered an egregious overstep of the fourth amendment.

The de facto position of the Trump administration is that it's occupying forces are allowed to mock and belittle American citizens, and also allowed to kill citizens who mock and belittle them.
She says ICE agents mocked her: “The ICE agent who had pepper sprayed into the vents of my car said ‘you guys gotta stop obstructing us, that’s why that lesbian b—— is dead,’ verbatim, speaking of Renee Good. Which filled me with absolute rage and shock..."

As per the uzhe, many people in law enforcement are the people who should most be kept away from any semblance of power.
"One, a supervisor, has been charged after dozens of police calls alleging domestic violence against his much younger, noncitizen partner. Another was convicted of forcing a vulnerable immigrant to have sex with him." ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/01/12/i...

Mr President here's the easiest question anyone's been asked in the history of American presidents.

Nothing?

Seriously?

...

Well, okay.
REPORTER: Do you commit to not militarily engaging NATO partners?

TRUMP: I don't talk about that

REPORTER: You're not willing to commit to not attacking a NATO partner?

The skies darkening as the murders converge above an outdoor rally would've made for an excellently Biblical argument against a second Trump presidency during the campaign.

Watched the first two Starfleet Academy eps. Both are a little clunky (though pilots always are). I'm not sure any of these kids need to go through Starfleet? They already seem like they're ultra capable. Holly Hunter as the hippie Captain is kind of fun. 1/

This decision from the 3d Circuit is a travesty for Mahmoud and his family. If it sticks (which there are ways to challenge and delay), it will lead to ICE re-detaining him. And they may try to re-detain him now, even though that'd be illegal.

This will fall on deaf ears but I'm gonna need every journalist doing an interview where the interviewee mentions sanctuary cities to stop the conversation and define what that is because I guarantee most of the people watching mainstream media think something way, way off.

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.
That is what was relayed

Demonstrators apparently retrieved from the cars belonging to ICE these "challenge coins" that ICE mercenaries receive when they carry out arrests.

This one is decorated with a skull wearing a crown.

ICE mercenaries serve king death. They are evil incarnate.

Cripes a’mighty people, Steven Miller is not staging a militarized ethnic cleansing and sending the border cops to murder people in the street to distract from the Epstein files. He’s doing it because he and Trump (and Vance and Homan and Noem etc) really really want to.

And she's right! We're not dealing with some foreign ideology. We're dealing with a uniquely American phenomenon.

“She shouldn’t have been there.” She was a person who lived in that town, driving a car, on the road they built for the cars to drive on, maybe the cop-adjacent man shooting people in the road for problems that don’t exist shouldn’t have been there.

This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars.
