🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Had anything like this happened before in Australia? A Royal Commissioner appointed through negotiation with bad-faith actors, details leaked out via extremist activists journalists?

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

Trump has burned our standing to ash. After this, we cannot condemn Putin in Ukraine or block China from Taiwan. Power without law is rot. The light we claimed for democracy is shattered. This was the straw that broke us. We have entered the darkest reflection of ourselves. #TrumpRegime

They "redacted" by highlighting with black marker in the PDF, which is not only perfectly reversible in the PDF itself, but doesn't stay redacted when you paste out to another document or application.

Mind boggling.
All right people so literally I downloaded one of the government documents to Books on my iPad. I highlighted some text that was not redacted and it included some that was redacted and I copied it over to notes and I pasted it and you can see everything unredacted.

If it feels like every tragedy gets twisted by MAGA into proof that people outside their movement are dangerous, you’re not imagining it. That instinct has a name in psychology, and MAGA has turned it into a political strategy.

Just when you think Trump can’t sink any lower… Rob Reiner and his talented wife Michele were friends of ours. We collaborated on projects. Brad and I are devastated. We are in shock and grief. Sure, Rob opposed Trump, but this is so beyond the pale.

Predictably, News Corp have ignored teachers’ pleas for them to stop pitting schools against each other by publishing uncontextualised rankings. Since they’ve ignored this, I’m sharing the list of Australia’s most untrusted brands. News Corp number 8 - should be higher! A toxic stain on Australia.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

I would posit that the reason so many people are shocked by the image of the White House being demolished is because it shows that Trump views it 1) entirely as his property and 2) that he doesn't really expect anybody else to live there.

Earlier this year, Speaker Johnson swore in two Republicans less than 24 hours after their elections.

It’s been 17 days since @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social won her election, and she still hasn’t been sworn in.

She would be the tie-breaking vote to release the Epstein files.
