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.

Near Lyndale and 24th Ave in Minneapolis tonight, feds have reportedly shot another person.

Preliminary info is shaky for now, hearing two people injured.

BORTAC just rolled up in an armored vehicle. A crowd is gathering outside the police tape—MPD presence as well.

Already heard from folks nearby that, even with windows and doors closed, tear gas is getting into nearby homes.

Our fed govt is making our city less safe.
Tear gas and smoke filling north and northeast Minneapolis tonight on is a perfectly clear winter night in the city.

Keep your windows closed.

After Grok, X’s AI chatbot, has been used to generate sexualized and violent images of women and children, the social media company has faced a wave of backlash and censure.

But within the secure confines of Elon Musk’s own mind, Grok is not only wildly successful but "solid as a rock."

Amid a scandal over nonconsensual sexual images, Musk says his AI chatbot is a force for "truth and... beauty."

New federal vaccine guidance has created uncertainty for clinicians, but not new legal danger.

A JAMA Perspective explains that clinicians who continue to follow evidence-based recs from trusted medical societies remain well within the legal standard of care, even when ACIP/CDC guidance changes.

Renee Good’s last words were to ICE agent Jonathan Ross: “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Then Ross shot Renee three times in the face. As she was dying, his last words to her were: “Fucking bitch.” And JD Vance thought that exchange exonerated ICE. That says it all.

Joseph Ladapo is an anti-vaxxer, snake oil peddler, and the Surgeon General of Florida.

He’s exceeded expectations in the area of the batshittery arts with a recent Twitter post, where he recommends “structured water”.

It’s perfectly reasonable to ask yourself, what the fuck is structured water?

Daniela and Andres, two Colombian asylum seekers, fell in love in the US. Shortly after Daniela was detained by ICE after a routine court hearing, the couple learns that she's pregnant.

With Daniela deported and Andres unable to return to Colombia, their family is now separated before it began.
