NEW: Marimar Martinez, the woman shot by Border Patrol in Chicago only to be criminally charged (and cleared), seeks to modify a court order so she can "disclose case materials … to the public."

Her atty, Chris Parente, points to events in Minneapolis as well as writings by Justice Samuel Alito:
Second, based on recent events in Minneapolis, Minnesota, involving the execution of two U.S. citizens who were engaged in similar peaceful protests as Ms. Martinez at the time of their killings, Ms. Martinez believes certain information disclosed in her case, and currently subject to the Protective Order, would be useful for both the public and elected officials to know regarding how DHS responds in cases where their agents use deadly force against U.S. citizens. A striking example of why good cause exists to modify the order is that the Government’s false narrative surrounding this case has reached all the way to the United States Supreme Court. In a recent Supreme Court decision, Justice Samuel Alito relied on the Government’s briefing repeating the false narratives surrounding this case and wrote: In a widely publicized event on October 4, a federal vehicle carrying Border Patrol agents was boxed in on a public road by 10 civilian vehicles, and 2 of those vehicles rammed the Government vehicle. As the agents exited their vehicle, one of the civilian vehicles was driven directly at an agent, forcing the agent to fire in self-defense. Trump v. Illinois, No. 25A443, 607 U.S. ___ (Dec. 23, 2025), at 8. Justice Alito’s reliance on the Government’s statements regarding this case, without attorneys for the State of Illinois and City of Chicago having the ability to demonstrate the false nature of these statements given the restrictive Protective Order, demonstrates the dangerousness of the Government’s actions here.

I've been sent video from the end of the ICE raid at the Zipps on 32nd and Shea.

It shows protesters -- on the sidewalk, impeding no one -- getting drive-by maced by an ICE agent from a truck as it rolls away down the road.

Hard to see how such tactics are justifiable.

The worst loss when twitter fell by the wayside was the Arab Spring style capacity for users at a distance to find and filter real-time local media covering uprising on the ground. What is the Bluesky equivalent?

Don’t let this get lost in the shuffle. Statement from pediatrician and first to respond to attempt to aid Alex Pretti after he received multiple gunshots at the hands of DHS agents in Minneapolis 1/24/26.
chrisgeidner.bsky.social Chris Geidner @chrisgeidner.bsky.social · 16d
BREAKING: A young doctor who lives near where Alex Pretti, a nurse, was killed by ICE says in a declaration he saw the shooting, went out to help, was not let through at first then patted down before being let by, and was apparently the first to try and provide any medical assistance to Pretti.
1. 1 am a 29-year-old resident of the lin Minneapolis, Minnesota. I have lived in Minneapolis since 2024, when I moved to the city to begin my medical residency. I am a licensed pediatrician, and I have been practicing pediatric medicine in the city since I moved here. 2. On January 24, 2026, at approximately 9:00 am CST, I was awoken by the sound of cars honking and whistles blowing. Shortly after I awoke, I heard screaming from outside my window. I saw several ICE agents and civilians yelling at each other. 3. One civilian was standing in front of a parked car on the side of the road. I saw him yelling at the ICE agents, but I did not see him attack the agents or brandish a weapon of any kind 4. Suddenly, an ICE agent shoved him to the ground. My view of the altercation was partially obstructed, but after a few seconds, I saw at least four ICE agents point guns at the man. I then saw the agents shoot the man at least six or seven times. 5. Initially, I was stunned. From what I could see from my apartment, there was absolutely no need for any violence, let alone lethal force by multiple officers. I immediately put on my boots and coat, ran outside, and approached ICE agents who were near the victim. 6. The scene was chaotic. Many civilians were screaming and honking. Over the noise, I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to assess the victim. 7. At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. They repeatedly asked me for my physician's license, which I obviously didn't have. But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, and I could tell that the victim was in critical condition. I insisted that the agents let me assess him. Normally, I would not have been so persistent, but as a physician, I felt a professional and moral obligation to help this man, especially since none of the agents were helping him. 8. Finally, one agent agreed to let me assess the victim. He patted me down to "make sure I didn't have a weapon" and then let me approach the victim. 9. As I approached, I saw that the victim was lying on his side and was surrounded by several ICE agents. I was confused as to why the victim was on his side, because that is not standard practice when a victim has been shot. Checking for a pulse and administering CPR is standard practice. Instead of doing either of those things, the ICE agents appeared to be counting his bullet wounds. 10.1 asked the ICE agents if the victim had a pulse, and they said they did not know. I then asked the agents to make space so I could assess the victim. 11. The victim had at least three bullet wounds in his back. I asked the ICE agents to turn the victim from his side to his back. From that position, I saw an additional gunshot wound on the victim's upper left chest and another possible gunshot wound on his neck. 12. I checked for a pulse, but I did not feel one. I immediately began CPR. Shortly after I started compressions, EMS personnel arrived and took over. 13.1 remained at the scene for about five more minutes, but protesters began to gather and the situation seemed to be escalating, so I left and returned to my apartment. 14. When I returned to my apartment, I was extremely distraught. I was sobbing and shaking uncontrollably. Eventually, I called my sister, who lives in a nearby suburb. I called her for comfort and because I did not feel safe in my apartment; I wanted to see if I could stay with her for the day and maybe even a few days. 15.1 also sought advice from a friend who works for the City of Minneapolis. He recommended that I shelter in place because the situation outside my apartment was so dangerous. I was going to follow his advice, but then ICE agents deployed tear gas on the crowd that had gathered below, and the tear gas began seeping into my apartment.

It's been about 24 hours and the winning cope on Twitter is clearly "it was a secretary position, calm down"

Seems like not vetting someone for a job with access to personnel files would be bad also, but what do I know

Anyway, the job ICE offered me was Deportation Officer

FPF filed a FOIA request to find out if the Trump administration had a legal rationale for killing 11 people on a Venezuelan boat.

Our fight, even if successful, will take months.

It shouldn’t be this hard to find out 1) what the government believes the law is, and 2) how it intends to apply it.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Hazy clouds drift by,
A new day brings dreams to chase.
Hopes that beautify,
Bring light to a dark place.
Few may see it as I do—
The beauty of the sky’s view.

The "Department of Government Efficiency" said it would take them THREE YEARS to respond to a simple public records request.

Think about it. DOGE has existed for less than 2 months and somehow says that it has already created enough records that it would take 3 years to release them in response to @crew.bsky.social's FOIA lawsuit.

This is an absolutely staggering level of stalling from a group of tech geniuses.
