For the second time in a little over a week, ICE officers reportedly shot someone in Los Angeles. This time, it was a US citizen who ICE officers shot from behind while he was driving a car, according to a report from the Los Angeles Times.

A legal permanent resident researching cures for Lyme disease has been detained by immigration officials for over a week. He has reportedly been denied access to an attorney and his family has not been given a reason for his detention. We cannot become immune to this cruelty.

FAFO

Just amazing: Trump grew angry over a Biden-era program with the word "equity" in its name, so he ended it. But a key part of the program was sending money to red states to expand internet access in rural/MAGA country. Now they might not get it. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1950...

Maybe that brain worm came back or he’s shooting heroin again. Who in their right mind is going to believe this crap?

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

A note to Jim Acosta. I enjoyed watching you on cnn over the years. I will miss your show. Please let us know where and when you resurface. We need more reporters like you standing up for the truth no matter the consequences. Respect!

Yup. That’s the Republicans play book. If you can’t win, steal it.

Eric Holder@ericholder.bsky.social

Let’s be very clear here. North Carolina Republicans are trying to: *steal *cheat *disenfranchise *lie their way to a state Supreme Court seat they lost at the ballot box. Stay focused on this; oppose their shameful actions and protect democracy. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Fuck ABC News, fuck legacy media. They can capitulate to that cocksucker all they want. It’s well-past time for something new. There are a helluva lot of warriors out there fighting the good fight for what is right. And we don’t fucking apologize to adjudicated fucking rapists.

Speaking of relevant experience, almost none of Trump’s proposed Cabinet members have any. What they do have is money and, in many cases, deep conflicts of interest with the agencies they will be tasked with running.

newrepublic.comDemocrats Still Haven’t Figured Out How to Attack TrumpOver the course of the decade, the party has hoped that voters would simply reject him as immoral, uncouth, and unfit for office. They need a stronger argument—and his Cabinet picks give them one.

More hypocrisy? Yup. That’s the republicans for you.

JoJoFromJerz@jojofromjerz.bsky.social

So, the very same Republicans who said they blocked the release of the House ethics report on Matt Gaetz because he is no longer an elected official, are vowing to further investigate Hunter Biden, who is not now, and has never been, an elected official? Do I have that about right?

Not to mention the new republic article a few years ago mentioning the fact that the Russian oligarchs came over and bought up several of his properties and made him flush again while he was going thru bankruptcy proceedings back in the eighties. Makes sense he would be beholding to Russia.
