Everyone in this government is the worst type of guy in every possible category of villainy. Liars, fraudsters, thieves, brutes. You can't argue with them because they don't have views. They're acting out their bizarre antisocial hangups and getting off on it. Freaks!

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.

I shall keep my opinions and reflections on the vacancy of Zaslav to myself. So:
I subscribed to HBO Max for a month, and I know we can't blame *everything* on David Zaslav's venality and incompetence, but I do think it trickles down from the top. On the left is HBO's print of FAITHLESS (Harry Beaumont, 1932). On the right is from the Warner Archive blu-ray released 2 years ago:

Holy shit.

Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.”

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.

He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

This post may be well intentioned, but there is documented evidence of zinc-chloride gas being used by CBP on protestors and purchased by various municipal PD. It's very nasty stuff and I would not want people risk coming into contact with it. www.salon.com/2021/02/21/p...

Yesterday, the State Department expanded the immigrant visa ban to half of all legal immigrants, including all immigrants from 93 countries. No law was passed. Not even an executive order was signed. They just did it. Tweeted it. Banana Republic.

In case you didn't catch the insanity behind this story 👇, X recently changed its terms of service so that any new lawsuits brought against it must be heard in a specific court in Texas that tends to be friendly. But tonight the TOS are changing again, so even EXISTING lawsuits must be heard there.

1/ Ciji Graham was the mother of 2-year-old SJ, a sister to 9 younger siblings, a beloved friend.

She's also the 7th case we’ve found of a pregnant woman in a state restricting abortion who died after being unable to access standard care.

This is her story.

Know what’s fucking insane?

Our NATO allies are sending troops to Greenland to defend against a possible US invasion.

I know this administration doesn’t understand anything about anything, but the US is not self-sufficient enough to thrive in an interconnected world on our own.
