Muting people is more satisfying than blocking them. Just imagine them being wrong as loud as they can but no one can hear them.

Reason n+1 that you should pick up a book: the way reading offline encourages you to think is a tactical advantage against an enemy that doesn't have that tool in their kit
New, from me: The Trump administration isn’t just using social media to shape a narrative. They view the world through a social media lens in a way that is plausibly corrupting their judgment and undermining their performance.

If it wasn’t already clear, it is definitely now the patriotic duty of every decent person in this country to videotape ICE anytime and anywhere they appear. It won’t stop the Trump administration from lying, but it will help provide counter evidence.

it's depressing how few of the ostensible opposition can manage to put out a statement with even half the clarity and moral force of AOC here
AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.

You're going to hear a lot of lies about what the law allows after the Trump Regime's murder of Renee Good.
States can prosecute federal officers, they've been doing it since the 1800s. Trump cannot stop it and cannot pardon it.

There's honestly been some pretty good news coverage tonight on TV regarding today's events. It's not a coincidence.
Like half a dozen prominent Democrats finally came out this afternoon and said ICE is terrorist trash led by a secretary who should be impeached and it flipped the whole narrative.

Wrote a piece for @slate.com explaining that states have a long history of prosecuting federal officers when they allegedly use excessive force. Federal officers are only immune from such prosecutions when they act reasonably in carrying out lawful duties.
Minnesota Could Prosecute the ICE Shooter. Trump Can’t Pardon Him.
Shortly after an ICE officer shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, city leaders began looking into whether the officer had violated state criminal law.

One of the things that might embolden a Senator is a demonstration that some critical mass of the people are with them. That, I think, is one of functions that calling Senators can have.

he won't arrest anyone for murdering his constituents but he'll arrest you for being angry about it
Governor Walz says he's prepared to deploy the Minnesota National Guard if protests become violent in reaction to ICE fatally shooting a woman in Minneapolis.
"We will not take the bait," adds Walz, saying he's also angry but demonstrations should remain lawful.
