I’m horrified by the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers at an event in DC last night. The fact that the gunman said he did it to “free Palestine” makes me nauseous. Murdering people for their nationality is never acceptable and this violence hurts Jews, Israelis, *and* Palestinians.

In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect. This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus. www.supremecourt.gov/docket/docke...

El Salvador's President Bukele is reportedly preparing to arrest the journalists who have reported on the secret deals Bukele struck with Salvadoran gangs that have enabled his consolidation of power.

This is my hometown. I grew up here. It will come to yours too.

Well, I had an interesting Sunday night, how 'bout you?

So, who’s gonna tell him about cracking ENIGMA? (Among literal countless other things that are so wrong I am left without words) www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2...

wait what the fuck

Good Night World

The Trump administration continues to ignore the courts. 278 men are still in CECOT prison without a trial, sentence, or any form of due process. Here's one of their stories. Dad is in CECOT. Mom, deported to Venezuela. Their beautiful toddler, in foster care in the US, whereabouts unknown.

Please highlight this story. ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago. kfor.com/news/local/w...

"This paper studies whether working from home (WFH) affects workers' performance in public sector jobs... we find that WFH increases productivity by 12%." @afenizia.bsky.social Evidence that administrations that reject WFH harm efficiency. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

JUST IN: A Milwaukee judge has been arrested this morning allegedly because she “tried to help an undocumented immigrant avoid arrest after he appeared in her courtroom last week.” There’s not a lot of info on this yet so stay tuned for more as it is released. www.jsonline.com/story/news/b...

again, the part that is funniest about all of this is that the only time any generative tool has any real utility at all is when it is being used by somebody who doesn't need it if you don't have the skill you are asking it to parrot, you don't have the skill to see and fix its many fuckups

Literally said he wants to put them in CAMPS, people. We’re not exaggerating.

The Women's Federal Correctional Institute in Dublin, California, was closed after revelations of widespread sexual abuse and human rights violations by prison guards. Now, the Trump administration is trying to reopen the facility to use as an ICE detention center. @rattlingthebars.bsky.social

FUCK. THIS. All of this.

So, Liz Truss killed the Queen. JD Vance killed the Pope. What a club to be part of!

This feels like bounty hunting.

Holy shit. Video posted by President Bukele’s team on X shows the moments before his press conference with Trump in which Trump tells him: “We want to do homegrown criminals next. You gotta build about five more places.” (h/t @titonka.bsky.social @michelekelemen.bsky.social)

SCOOP: Columbia student Mohsen Mahdawi went into an interview today hoping he would come out a U.S. citizen. Instead, ICE arrested him. theintercept.com/2025/04/14/i...

Noem and Homan are now in contempt of the order in the case of the Noem-Homan-ICE abduction, the DISAPPEARING of a Maryland man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia. They're in contempt of the orders of some judge, as the fascist Stephen Miller & his brownshirts call it, they're in contempt of the LAWS OF THE USA.

NEW: Rümeysa Öztürk says she's had 4 painful asthma attacks in ICE custody, and not only is her asthma going untreated but a nurse tore off her hijab, saying, "You need to take that thing off your head." www.aclum.org/sites/defaul...

I am apoplectic about this. The first thing you say about Ted Bundy is that he killed women, and then if you really feel like it you can talk about how charming he was or whatever. The first thing you say about RFK is that he’s pro-measles.

With about 120,000 students, nearly 80% of whom are not white, Cypress-Fairbanks is the largest school district in Texas where the school board has been taken over by ideologically driven conservative candidates. With @texastribune.org

New from 404 Media: we've seen an ICE database that filters people by hundreds of different, highly specific categories. Experts say possibly helping ICE identify and deport people. Scars, location data, immigration status, eye color, much more. Created by Palantir www.404media.co/inside-a-pow...

Leavitt confirmed that the WH is working on deporting US citizens to El Salvador

For almost 2 weeks, Badar Khan Suri was kept in a room without a bed & with TV blaring 21 hrs/day. He was given used underwear & red uniform "usually reserved" for "high security" detainees. Not allowed to spend more than 2 hrs/week outside dorm. His little son has stopped talking in his absence.

New — ICE will release the mother and children they shackled and unlawfully abducted from Sackets Harbor, NY in late March after relentless pressure from the town. I write how the incredible outcome of this horrifying story should give fuel us to fight back: www.thehandbasket.co/p/sackets-ha...

BREAKING — The family abducted by ICE is returning home, per email from Sackets Harbor Superintendent:

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

This is just pointless cruelty

WOW. Rep. @jayapal.house.gov says CBP's internal affairs department found that a Chinese woman who had overstayed a visa was arrested by Border Patrol and hung herself in a cell. She wasn't found for two hours—even though the records reported multiple welfare checks (suggesting records falsified?).

“In 2012, in Arizona v United States, the highest court in the land ruled that “as a general rule, it is not a crime for a removable alien to remain in the United States”. Got that? Not. A. Crime.” From my new Guardian op-ed:

From the Game Manufacturers Association.

This is the starkest realization of the American character of selfishness and cruelty. Hell I think we, as a nation, look forward to domestic tragedies like 9/11 and Katrina to publicly absolve ourselves.

If you were a halfway decent human being and you knew an innocent man was rotting in foreign prison—likely suffering nightmarish conditions—because your administration screwed up and send him there, you’d do something about it immediately instead of shitposting lies all day.

people are dying in ICE concentration camps & this is documented by places as mainstream as USA Today but I'm guessing the people responsible for those deaths will somehow elude prosecution

The end started when they didn't call out and purge an abuser from their ranks. It snowballed as they failed to be transparent and closed ranks. The writing was on the wall when the last of their staff embraced AI content. All they had to do was be ethical and decent. Apparently a bridge to far.

Dear all foreign friends outside the United States, Our country is big. Like really big. Like so much bigger than you ken. Our states are bigger than many countries, and there's 50 of them. So when you wonder why we are not all marching on DC I live 2,500 miles (4000 km) from the White House
