i’m a little confused about how “abolish ICE” requires too much explaining to be good politics, but a set of opaque incremental reforms does not.

Once again reminding people that Elon Musk's genuine field of expertise, the thing he is actually quite knowledgeable about and good at, is not engineering or business, but bad faith legal shenanigans

The X Terms of Service are amazing in many regards, but the choice of law and choice of forum parts (in Section 6) are a real standout. They apply to everything, including patent disputes, apply to pending and future disputes without regard to when the conduct occurred (or will occur)...

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:

All I'm saying is, if you ran a campaign on democracy being at stake and democracy lost, isn't it time to be massively freaking out instead of doing this

this crystallizes why, despite truly heroic solidarity and activism, i can’t quite get in the “we’re going to win” mindset right now. the harm is so active and there’s so much violence we don’t even know about. people are being turned into ghosts.

ICE Nazis visit a Mexican restaurant in St. Paul in hope of ordering food and kidnapping some restaurant workers, but get met with resistance from EVERYONE inside, only to get their fascist asses thrown out. 🙌🇺🇸💪👏✊️👇

From a Minnesotan: a hearty HELL NO to this. This man is a professional political consultant in DC raising $$ for a political party. There are endless better places to donate to actually help people here suffering and fighting against this nazi invasion. Here’s a start:

politically, the moment right now reminds me of january 6 in so many ways. public opinion, fueled by video we can all see, turning against maga and trump before our eyes. voters open to the dem argument, all while republican propaganda lies in our faces about what we all saw

2 ICE tactics I’ve learned of recently via neighborhood signal chats:
-gaining access to a large apartment building, pulling fire alarm so everyone exits
-driving around blaring ice cream truck music through a loudspeaker

Pure fucking evil

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Good morning. I read this dispatch from a comrade in Minneapolis this morning and thought that some of you might appreciate it too.
TEXT: Out on patrol with two friends this morning and I kept seeing the beautiful web being woven in Minnesota right now. Not with new materials but woven with wisdom into what was already here. I could feel this net with my hands, this connection as we passed that group of three on the corner of Cedar and Lake, this connection as we listened to someone doing dispatch while their kid yelled in the room behind them. I thought of this today stopping by a locally beloved Mexican restaurant to grab some food for the family and having the owner step up with tears in his eyes and reflect on how much they feel cared for and then the security guard stepped over and asserted that this is what we do, we care for our own. He said, tell people we have them, we've got them and we will keep them safe. All of the worst stories you read are true and there are more of them than what shows up on social media, but there is also this, everything I am writing here in the same morning, driving over to northeast and a junior high has just done a walk out, they are lining a major road in their "are those pants they look like pajamas" clothes and all are holding signs and I am on the phone with someone and I burst into tears when I pass them. This is a net and I remember this very old fishing net someone showed me years ago, guiding my fingers to feel where the net had been repaired over and over again, like scars in the fibers that strengthen rather than break. ICE is sharp, knives that cut with small knicks and sometimes great full arm thrusts that shove and tear through this connected set of scars and fresh material and there are wounds and this is violence and some of you beloveds are being stopped on the road because of how you are read and I am not being stopped and none of this is ever ok and still, I feel the pull and tug of the net that is larger than anything I have experienced TEXT: before. Is there anyone in these cities not showing up in some way? I can't remember the last time I saw or heard anyone have words other than how can I show up? There is a net and it has always been here, it is always here, it's just that sometimes it's hard to see and all that is happening in Minneapolis is that some of the confusion is fading and what is visible is the link and weave and stumble and steady between us. May we keep repairing it as it frays, from those outside and from the rising tension we hold within and may this net grow with wisdom and may bodies tired of holding themselves up alone someday feel like they can relax into the steady certainty of something much bigger than the size of their skin.

Also, Jonathon Ross *was* an ICE trainer for a decade.

It's not just "give ICE more money" but specifically, literally "pay Jonathon Ross more money and give him more people to train to shoot mothers in the face"

Make no mistake: "Give ICE better training" = Give ICE more money

When politicians tell you shit like that, they're literally ignoring everything that's happening and arguing that ICE should get MORE money.

They've already done it for half a century with the cops.

Meanwhile in Minneapolis, the National Guard is being deployed today to escort the *checks news* *checks news again* *checks my vision at the optometrist* *checks news* racists marching through Somali neighborhoods to protest the existence of day cares for Black kids

mndaily.com/city/minneso...
Minnesota National Guard, several other agencies mobilized ahead of Saturday march Minnesota’s commissioner for the Department of Public Safety announced the action Friday. by Tyler Church and Alexis Letang Published January 16, 2026 “March Against Minnesota Fraud,” organized by conservative influencer Jake Lang, is planned for Saturday at 12 p.m. at Minneapolis City Hall. According to the Minnesota Star Tribune, Rep. Mohamud Noor said he is fearful of the protest moving to areas with high Somali populations, such as the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood. Activists also expect the protest to travel through the University of Minnesota campus. The protest, which Lang broadcasted on X, calls to “take back” the state from Democrats, following President Donald Trump’s recent scrutiny of Minnesota’s Somali community. The “crusaders”, as Lang called the members of the protest in his X post, plan to start at Minneapolis’ city hall. The Minneapolis Police Inspector Bill Peterson told Minneapolis residents Tuesday in a monthly community safety meeting that the city has prepared for the event, adding that they are “hyper-aware” that the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood could be a target due to their large Somali population.

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.
