CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

Body cam from when Border Patrol shot a woman 5 times in Chicago last year. The agents have guns drawn and pointed. One says "do something b----." Then: "Time to get aggressive." Moments later, the driver can be seen swerving the car into hers, jumping out & firing almost immediately.

It would be good for the health of everyone if there was a bit more introspection on the part of the kinds of people who have actually achieved state power and then either squandered it or actively worsened the world in some respects with it.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Heck, even the soft power of other countries is projected via and magnified by the US.

Would k-dramas and k-pop be as global of a phenomenon, without America? Would Europeans be eating tacos? If Taylor Swift didn’t wear Cartier watches, would they be such a global status symbol?

Here is another all time favorite image of mine. This was one of those right place at the right time moments. I hope to return to Yellowstone soon and experience more magic like this! More wolves please 🐺

The answer is imo pretty clear: stop pretending that when someone says "my religion tells me X" they mean anything other than "I believe X" and deal with the consequences

NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.

This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.

Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.
Virginia’s New Governor Ends ICE Program. Local Contracts Remain, For Now. - Bolts
Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?

Americans have been so poisoned by TV copaganda slop that it largely doesn't register to them that police officers are not supposed to point guns at people

guns are in principle not a tool of law enforcement, they are a tool of self-defense that we allow law enforcement officers to have
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"

This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.
