Fuck that's powerful.

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at todayβs ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch π. @maddow.bsky.social
To commentate Valentineβs Day, community members and Recovery Bike Shop help put hearts along central at spots where our community members were taken. In the last 3 months at least 38 people have been taken around central Ave.
The unspeakable evil. I wish I could manifest the thoughts Iβm having now about the weapon makers and sellers and investors and the people who use them.
A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists.
That's 2%! www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...
I just realized that Benito Antonio MartΓnez Ocasio could easily turn that halftime show into a banging Broadway musical. That would be fucking amazing. Make it a happy ending East Coast and West Coast Puerto Rico love story. Family reunion, wedding, lots of queer cousins! It has it all!

thank you. thank you.
I arrived too late to an abduction yesterday. Ice vehicles boxed in a food delivery driver on the highway. They took him, and when I came on the scene (with a few other neighbors in cars), his keys were still in it. We found his phone, a debit card, his car title and registration.
I was about to mock them along with everyone else, but then I thought about what an undeniable temptation to tamper with some food there would be if I were cooking for or serving certain people.
incredible that you guys laid off your fucking war correspondents so you could report on the mid-level real estate market in New York City. Truly, this is the kind of thing that will drag the Post out of the trash pit.
Print of an ink art piece depicting a cowboy Kara Danvers kissing a soon-to-be divorced Lena Luthor who's wearing an a-line skirt and heels. Kara is in boots, jeans, a white t-shirt and cowboy hat. She holds her glasses in one hand while the other is on Lena's back. Lena has worked her left hand up into Kara's sleeve, probably to feel the solid muscle there.
And to this day it inspires imaginations. I'm still hoping that bossbeth finishes her 1950s Reno divorce ranch AU, "Six Weeks in Nevada." Art by foleypdx. Many thanks to "Desert Hearts" director @donna-deitch.bsky.social.
Whoever decided on Charbonneau's hair styling absolutely nailed the queer coding that looked 1950s appropriate while simultaneously lighting up 1980s lesbians' little hearts. Shaver's portrayal probably spurred a generation of ice queen age gap romance novels.
In 1986 I was a year from graduating college, pretty newly out but very out and proud, and IIRC my gf and I drove three hours to see "Desert Hearts" in Atlanta. It's hard to explain how groundbreaking it was.
π Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trumpβs βbig beautiful bill.β The measure failed 49-51.
Iβm a NO β not one more penny for ICE without stopping this violence. Two American citizens were killed by federal agents.
No more roving patrols. No more secret masked police. No more warrantless raids. Investigate and prosecute ICE crimes.
Get ICE out of Minnesota.
"We need to rip ICE down to the studs and start over," Senator Tina Smith of Minnesota writes. "In the wake of this catastrophe, there is no reason we canβt come up with a way of enforcing our laws that doesnβt trample on our values and our Constitution."
Don Lemon speaks outside of the courtroom after release: "I have spent my entire life covering the news. I will not stop now ... I will not be silenced."
Wait, so if they have spare FBI officers available to raid the Fulton County Election Hub, I can only imagine that the Epstein files are finally redacted and ready for release. π€π€·πΌββοΈ
4) And they STILL havenβt released the Epstein files.
Now, riddle me this: how does a FedGov created by a Constitution ever outgrow that Constitution? Of course, it canβt. So heβs saying that there is no FedGov, and there is no LocalGov, there is only ππ₯. IOW, HE JUST TOOK ALL OF YOUR RIGHTS AWAY.
Well, instead of respecting the core of federalism, heβs shitting on everything everywhere all at once. Every gd thing in this exec order is a full frontal violation of the Constitution based on easily disposable lies and bogus law.
E.g., in CA, and everywhere else, that includes power to hire and deploy public safety personnel, to plan and administer public infrastructure, and to enact zoning and building codes and to guarantee compliance whether he likes it or not.
E.g., in MN, and everywhere else, that includes power to investigate homicides, no matter who did them.
Our Federal government was created by our State governments. Those state governments agreed to share some powers and to reserve others. Among the ones they reserved is what we call the general police power. Itβs the power to regulate, legislate, and enforce all matters not explicitly ceded to FedGov
H/t to a fellow Alt for sharing this (you know who you are π)
FedGov has declared itself exempt from the Constitution, all of it, basically. Let me walk you through this so youβll understand all the ways this is a direct attack on every American.

π₯ @RepWesleyBell: "I don't care if my mother is in the Epstein files, we need to see 100% of the Epstein files to ensure that we are doing right by these victims."
Itβs officially Flu A. Day 5 of symptoms now. Second positive test today was a clearly more definitive, dark line.
Thanks, Z! Hopefully it will stay mild. I killed it as the voice of god at our award and degree show, so Iβm still just super happy about that.
