Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Flashbangs burn hotter then lava.

They've caused serious burns, severed hands, and even killed.

*That's* what ICE just tossed into a car full of kids.

Here's our investigation from 2015, by @juliaangwin.com:

This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.

A citizen.

Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.

"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.

Agents took and sold his phone

And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

Read this story and decide if this is the America you want to live in.

ICE saw a Latino man driving a car. Chased him down and rammed him. Just because he wasn’t white.

He was just a guy - an American citizen - driving to the auto shop.

It’s fun setting up a new Linux machine and seeing the packages installing, recognizing things I used to contribute to. I miss those days.

If someone ever buys X, I hope they rename it to Twitter.

Then every website or news broadcaster can start referring to it as Twitter (Formerly X (Formerly Twitter)).

Best “one more thing” from a presentation ever, complements of @josevalim.bsky.social. So psyched to try it out.

I can’t believe I’m paying money to live in this horrible Airbnb. This person should be banned from the platform.

Only 21 more days before I get to write this person a review.

I'm disappointed by Airbnb's policy that prevents you from cursing in reviews of places you stay.

I would like to provide the most accurate review I can of the place I'm staying for the month of August. I feel like a few F-bombs would go a long way towards making that happen.

In 1960s Vienna the socialist city government decided—against vehement protests of the conservatives—to spend a lot of money on a major civil engineering flood protection project.

In 2013, the Danube reached a 500-year flood in Vienna.

Nothing was destroyed and no one got seriously hurt.
