Yes! Urine diversion is so exciting

Maine had a program for selling municipal sludge to farms but PFAS ruined it, along with acres and acres of arable land

Wondering if the media would've chosen "honored" as the verb if Obama had saluted fallen soldiers in a fucking baseball cap

Local angle: 4 of the 5 no-go’s are Minnesota boys (Guentzel, LaCombe, Nelson, Oettinger). 🫡

Damn did no one on team USA say fuck this guy!??

J.I.B.C. is 19-years-old and has pending applications for Special Immigrant Juvenile status and asylum. (J.I.B.C. Decl. ¶ 1.) On January 13, 2026, he was leaving TMobile when another car struck his own. (Id. ¶¶ 3–4.) Agents surrounded him, opened the car doors, and wrenched him out. (Id. ¶ 4.) J.I.B.C. offered to show the agents his immigration documents, but the agents said they did not need to see them. (Id. ¶ 6.) When he pulled out his cell phone, the agents

threw him to the ground. (Id. ¶ 5.) The immigration documents were left inside his car. (Id. ¶ 6.) Several hours after arriving at Whipple, J.I.B.C. was allowed one phone call. (Id. ¶¶ 8, 12.) There was no privacy—it was a shared phone, located in a hallway between cells with agents nearby. (Id. ¶ 12.) J.I.B.C. told his girlfriend he had been detained; she said she would find a lawyer. (Id. ¶ 13.) Agents told J.I.B.C. to tell her that he was going to El Paso, Texas. (Id.) That day, J.I.B.C. was transferred to Texas. (Id. ¶ 15.) During his weeklong detention, he was allowed only two calls. (Id. ¶ 22.) Officers pressured people to sign voluntary self-deportation papers; many did. (Id. ¶ 23.) Agents told J.I.B.C. that he would be detained longer if he fought his case. (Id.)

ICE agents crashed directly into a 19-year-old refugee's car, pulled him out from the wreck, threw him on the ground, then rushed him off to detention before he could locate the immigration papers in his car that proved he's here lawfully. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

When was the last time Susan Collins cast a deciding vote?

Ah if only this guy had some de-escalation training

And prosecute the murderers.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

Janet Mills:

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS.

ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion.

This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

Terrorizing families

(From @thejfreakinc.bsky.social )

This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis.

Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.

St. Paul woman, a U.S. citizen, recounts her two days in detention Nasra Ahmed, 23, said she was taken to the hospital for an MRI with hands and legs shackled

Nasra Ahmed, 23, was walking through the parking lot of her aunt’s St. Paul apartment complex when she found herself surrounded by 12 agents. Ahmed, born in the USA, says she showed them her I.D. She was forcefully detained and jailed anyway for more than 2 days. www.twincities.com/2026/01/18/s...

The boy holding a bag of haribo confectionary is questioned by a masked IcE agent while three others with weapons stand by

The boy has head bowed, holding his confectionary, as he is taken away.

A teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present.

He was bundled into the van & taken away.

Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?”

I don’t know how America comes back from all this.

You watch this tearful flag-waving navy vet breaking down at the end of the clip and you think to yourself about how the administration and all their shitbag followers think it'd be cool if she just got shot in the head and....I don't know man. I just don't know

ICE not only manhandled and terrorized a 10th grader who is an American citizen, they stole his phone. And then they sold it.

I repeat, they stole his phone, and then they sold it.

Thank you CNN for pointing out that everyone opposed to this regime has normal, pro-social links to the organizations that make up a liveable society where you can do normal shit.
Next article you can talk about how the vice president, by contrast, is in nazi groupchats with minors

Fuck ICE Fuck these guys Fuck this administration.

The thing about Somalis is that only a single-digit percentage in Minnesota are non-citizens, and even fewer are undocumented. The only way to get from Somalia to here is through an airport CBP officer, and we’re not handing out a lot of tourist visas to them minnesotareformer.com/briefs/most-...

i think the public-facing message re: ICE needs to be something like “let’s pump the brakes and investigate these bad apples” and then you take power and wipe the whole thing out

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

You know who doesn’t have time to draw his gun and shoot someone in the face? A guy who is actually in the process of getting hit by a car.

Our entire politics now is about our sundowning, failing, unpopular leader, whose powers are clearly ebbing, maniacally trying to find ways to restore his STRENGTH, POWER, and MANLINESS.

Like seizing Greenland; taking VZ’s oil; killing men in boats; terrorizing US cities; bombing other countries.

Current DOJ use of force policy states that even if the ICE officer did what Trump, Vance and others are claiming he did, that's still not allowed. From the policy here: www.justice.gov/archives/ag/...

👉 ICE Abusing Protesters After Murdering Driver 1/7/26
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lnfi...

Driver: “Criminals doing Uber? Maybe criminals are doing ICE, how about that, you know what I’m saying? Y’all shoot enough people… You shot her in the head! For what?!”

Agent, heckling: “I don’t know why they do the head, man” [Bovino and other agents laugh].
