A man was choked on the floor of a Charlotte restaurant by Border Patrol agents — and thousands of Americans invented a knife to justify it.

The Lies Americans Tell Themselves to Justify State Violence Against Migrants
I posted a photo of Border Patrol agents pinning a man to the ground in a headlock – and the internet made up every excuse in the book to defend the assault.

ICE has completely broken our social contract.

They manipulate social trust and are creating lasting damage to our most basic social foundations
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

"Catholic nuns and clergy had visited the facility for years, offering prayer services and holy communion to detainees during visitor hours.

Trump Administration immigration authorities rolled back that access in September..."

We are part of one civilization: the world. And our peaceful interconnection despite language, religion, and history is the greatest moral accomplishment in world history. The attempt to reverse it is evil
The Rubio speech really is appalling, and if you haven’t read it yet, you should.

They keep changing tactics but keep kidnapping my neighbors. Every time they claim they’re drawing down things get a little worse.
ICE observers in Minnesota are skeptical about the White House's claims of a federal drawdown.

But they have noticed in recent weeks a shift from aggressive street sweeps in Minneapolis to instead target people in the suburbs or quietly waiting in unmarked vehicles of residential areas.

Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading.

Now we’ve got mumps rolling up.

Expect more.

This is your regular reminder that the idea that Christianity is a thing uniform beliefs that everyone within “Western Civilization” believed and agreed on is a fiction that just ignores centuries of Christians killing each other and fighting literal wars over their different beliefs.

RIP to a real Oregon hero. He went to Disneyland in the 60s, said “I bet I could do this” and you know what he sure could and did.
Enchanted Forest founder Roger Tofte, 96, died Friday of natural causes, some 54½ years after he opened the iconic roadside amusement park.

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.

Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

T6 has had a ton of trouble keeping track of his wallet and/or any cash we give him, so we finally relented & helped him get a cashapp. He has so far had to replace it once because he immediately fell for an online scam, & I had to spend like an hour today convincing him not to fall for another one

Some might not be old enough to remember, but Surya Bonaly did a backflip in her 1998 Olympic performance. I watched her, and I also remember the backlash. When a black woman does something revolutionary, it's an illegal move. Now it's suddenly extraordinary.

As a former public defender who represented thousands of people, I can’t stop thinking about the contrast the Epstein files raise.

I watched 1000s face swift, devastating punishment for far less serious conduct — poor, marginalized, & presumed dangerous from the start.
