> "system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility

that's not how anything works they're lying and destroying evidence hope that helps
And what is happening inside ICE detention centers? 404 Media also learned that the federal government claimed that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.
ICE Says Critical Evidence In Abuse Case Was Lost In 'System Crash' a Day After It Was Sued
The government also said "we don't have resources" to retain all footage and that plaintiffs could supply "endless hard drives that we could save things to."

This is an excellent analogy, because my recollection from grade school is that the pen on the right looks fun and exciting, and then you play with it for a few minutes and realize it's not actually useful for anything and in fact makes some tasks more cumbersome, and never think about it again.
yeah, just out of interest, how many people choose the pen on the right for real work or art? See a lot of them in professional workplaces, do you?

former ward 7 council member katie cashman sent an email amplifying ways to get trained to observe ICE and be informed, a list of fundraisers to contribute to, and more actions like attending DFL caucuses on 2/3, adding that she’d be supporting peggy flanagan for US senate

Something a little different. Some cartoonists put out a call for comics about local ICE experiences. This one happened a few months ago so it's a little older than current events, but it's a story that I never stopped thinking about. #ICEoutcomics

Beyond the Indigenous people you have heard about being detained by ICE, hundreds of Indigenous neighbors in Minneapolis are afraid to go outside on their own land because we're in the "papers, please" stage of fascism apparently. Having tribal documents doesn't guarantee safety, but it helps.

WELL NOW, would you look at that?

A massive, 26-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 2.4 MILLION people in Sweden found found NO EVIDENCE to support a causal link between acetaminophen (the API in Tylenol) use during pregnancy and increased risk of autism, ADHD, OR intellectual disability in children.

Three years ago today, Georgia state police murdered Tortuguita as part of their drive to destroy the Weelaunee Forest and build a deadly police militarization center.

Tort fought for a world without police and capitalism, and so should we. Viva, viva Tortuguita.

no honor, no dignity. a lifetime of trying to atone for the wrong they’re doing will not be enough. The appropriate posture for them all this morning is on their knees in the Minnesota cold begging the God of the universe, Who is against them, for forgiveness
How much more in your face can it be?

"Why are you asking me for my paperwork?"
"Because of your accent."
"You have an accent too."
"Where were you born sir?"
"Where were you born at?"
"Put your hands behind your back."

Reminder that even DISNEY didn't have enough data to train their own AI model.

Every time a company tells us they will "only use their data" or "train their own ai" : they are lying. Perhaps lying to themselves too, idk.

AI is only "" good enough"" when it's based on massive theft.

36 people have died at ICE's hands in the past year

may of these deaths did not happen on camera, but it does not make them any less horrifying and unacceptable

this is a list of their names, where they lived before being abducted, and a link to crowdfunding if i can find it

Not going back to Spotify bc the only reason they aren’t running ICE ads is because the campaign ended. Meaning if the government did another campaign, Spotify has no issue putting the ads back on. Continue cancel Spotify.
Spotify no longer running ICE recruitment ads, after US government campaign ends
The ad campaign ended in late 2025, the Swedish streaming giant confirmed, having previously said, despite protests, that it did not violate advertising policies

i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all
