Gonna post this (important context: it’s from 2017) as a corrective to a certain kind of nonsense which will undoubtedly crescendo in Super Bowl week

Cortez-Mastro and Rosen have just committed to VOTE NO.

Please call Sheehen, Hassan, King and Durbin and tell them they must VOTE NO on giving ICE more money. Use @5calls.org it's easy.

New Yorkers need you OUT FRONT against the ICE/CBP Gestapo. Hold DHS funding hostage!

You only need 41 votes, you can spare a few squishes

Moments before the first shot is fired, this federal agent can be seen retreating with a gun. It appears to match the general appearance of the firearm posted by DHS, including the red dot sight. This agent’s back is turned when the first shot occurs. x.com/BillMelugin_...

FILIBUSTER THE GODDAMNED DHS APPROPRIATIONS BILL

On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.

From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now):

-If you work for ICE.
-If you vote for money for ICE.

You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

This is sickening. This is horrifying. This is infuriating. We are under attack. There is no spin to this.

Well, this is really something. A majority of *working class whites* disapprove of ICE, per new NYT poll.

Dovetails with the unpublished data that I got from Quinnipiac finding similar on working class more broadly (see below).

(cc @gelliottmorris.com )
Quinnipiac gave me unpublished data from new poll and it finds huge, huge, huge percentages of young and working class voters have seen video of Minneapolis shooting.

Majorities of both disapprove of ICE. Pundits are getting the working class/immigration wrong:

I think it’s worth asking again — and seriously — what exactly do we have a 25th Amendment for if not for this?

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE.

This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

Any DoJ attorney who participates in this investigation should suffer professional and social shunning that makes it effectively impossible to continue to work as an attorney.

WHY are news stations reading DHS statements out loud as if they have ANY credibility at all? They literally murdered a woman in cold blood LAST WEEK and are still lying about what happened, even though we can see what happened. That any credibility would be given to their statement is insane

Road report:

-I haven't done anything on Xitter since Nov 2024.

-Via someone's account, recently trawled through the main news feed.

It actually is shocking. Between the Grok-generated sexploitation, and white-supremacist cheerleading, that's most of the feed.

No "real" org should be there.

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.

They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.

Stop the lies.

As an independent online journalist my very living relies 100% upon engaging people on the internet who may become subscribers. I built my business on Twitter, but I fully left the platform over a year. 2025 was nonetheless my best year yet. If I don't need Twitter no one does. Get off it now.
I reached out to more than three dozen X advertisers, xAI investors, politicians, and government agencies about the growing library of sexualized deepfakes generated with Grok—now including Renee Good. I only heard back from four, with three declining to comment.

Why isn't there a bigger Grok boycott?
Advertisers, politicians, and investors are still all-in on X, despite a sexual abuse crisis.

After the assassination of Melissa Hortman it’s not hard to understand why a woman in Minnesota would be afraid of a man in a mask who says he’s a cop.

Trump regime ICE forces attacked witnesses and onlookers at the scene of the Minneapolis ICE murder. People defended themselves with snowballs and tried to block them from fleeing.

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country.

That, and also I have to keep reminding myself that for however monumentally bleak it was/is, the year showed a ton of meaningful solidarity and support from ordinary, everyday, working people from all kinds of backgrounds, showing up and fighting for one another even in the face of actual violence…
2025 was a tough year for a variety of reasons, but I very much appreciate all of you, my pocket friends. Sending y’all my best wishes for 2026.
