Subway is a bowling alley. We’re not out selling sad-looking footlong subs at highway rest stops with no other options.

This is an incredible photo.
Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.
Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

So it’s a race: how quickly can a person’s family realize they were snatched and find a lawyer, and how quickly can that lawyer get a habeas petition of file? And is that faster than ICE can load the detainee on a plane to Texas?
It’s exhausting and terrifying. It can be life and death.

oh so just dumb luck these idiots didn’t shoot down a passenger aircraft
According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

[nods vigorously in “works in an industrial plant”]
I’d note that the “IT revolution” of the 90s is STILL taking place in many industries/use-cases. Relatedly of course there was massive over-capacity of fiber but now that’s being finally used in many places.

First, the Trump administration said it detained Leqaa Kordia for an immigration violation.
Then, they used her participation in a pro-Palestine Columbia protest to justify it.
Now, they say she supports Hamas because she sent money to family in Palestine.

Why Has This Columbia University Protester Been in ICE Detention for Nearly a Year?
Leqaa Kordia's family worries about her health after she was briefly hospitalized last week. DHS refused to give them information about her condition and she is still 'very sick.'

Minnesota still needs your attention
This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.
