Jira as a tool of the resistance was not on my bingo card for today, but if you are looking for a way to fuck things up - that's a pretty good start.

Firmly in the “They’re not getting a cent of my money” camp on this one.
“Easier to find the Aurora Borealis.”

“Once-in-a-lifetime adventure … squashed.”

“We still think it will be worth it.”

“Do I think it’ll be worth it? No.”

“Spent approximately $70,000.”

“They’re not getting a cent of my money.”

A reminder that the New England Patriots plane is flown by Omni air who contracts with ICE to fly people in chains to Africa and Asia several times per week.

Go Seahawks.

This was clear to all of us. And I expect it will still happen, since introspection and learning from mistakes is not these folks strong suit.

In my experience, the 'Wealthy' work a lot less (and easier work) than the average middle or lower class hourly employee. But sure, I guess "Fuck Poor People" is a slogan his supporters can get behind.
Trump: "People that own their homes -- we're gonna keep them wealthy. We're gonna keep those prices up. We're not gonna destroy the value of their homes so that somebody who didn't work very hard can buy a home."

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

One way you can gauge the success of a signing like this is how mad fans losing the player are.

And Rapids fans are shocked and incensed.

Hey #RCTID / #BAONPDX community! If you want a whistle to alert people about ICE activities, I believe we have a bunch at Legends. I'll make sure to have them at the token table. If there's room, I'll put some in the merch area too.

This mid-afternoon Alex Pretti vigil at the Portland VA was not heavily promoted. But the crowd probably stretches a quarter mile or more. Americans are galvanized and grieving.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

There is no place in hell hot enough for these bastards.
The parents of a 7 year old, all of whom are in the process of applying for asylum, took their daughter to the ER when her nose wouldn't stop bleeding. ICE picked them up near the hospital and they are now in detention in Texas, presumably awaiting deportation. www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

This should be an ad run by the DNC on every TV in the country. It will not be, as there is not an organized resistance party - but it's not for lack of content.
Trump: "Sometimes you need a dictator."

THAT.
Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask:

"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"
January 20, 2026 at 7:44 PM
This is correct.
Policy-based explanations for Trump's conduct make no sense. Explanations grounded in the study of the psychopathology of a profound malignant narcissistic personality disorder make perfect sense and actually explain the conduct.

Hey @107ist.org members!!

You should have received your ballot to vote for the board members this year. There are a bunch of great candidates, read about them on the discord, and VOTE!

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

Any elected leader who thinks ICE in the era of Donald Trump can be fixed with body cameras and "more training" is deeply unserious, lacks commitment to civil and human rights, and should be voted out of office.
