I have no words for this:

“The goalkeeper told me I’m an illegal immigrant even though I was born in America, and he said Trump was gonna get me and send me back.”

How is destroying the spirit of our children making this country great?

Who will repair their trauma when this is over?

Sickening.

In an unhinged letter to the Norwegian prime minister, Donald Trump falsely claimed that there are no documents indicating Denmark's claim to Greenland.

In fact, the US signed a still-binding 1917 treaty with Denmark to certify that it would not challenge Danish control of Greenland.

the only good thing about this part of the horrible shooting story is that it may turn out to be a gut shot for the carcass of @cbsnews.com and that's great. and unlike the ICE goon CBS has real internal bleeding.

Important work here from the NYT. Ross wasn’t run over. He dropped his cell phone, which he had shifted to his left hand to draw his weapon. And then he shot and killed a person with the gun in his right hand.

Well, what do you know. Almost a decade in the criminal justice system and I guess I developed some pretty good instincts. A reader just showed this to me and it does now look like the entire DHS story is a pile of bullshit.
“They chased him, he got home and when we closed the door they shot him.”

The people protesting right now pretty obviously aren't being paid. But every time someone makes this dumb argument, it's also worth pointing out that it's isn't a crime to pay people to protest, nor is it a crime accept money to protest.

Which isn't to say they won't "investigate," anyway.

Congratulations to all the bankers, hedge-fund managers, private-equity honchos, tech titans, corporate executives and op-ed writers for backing the man who will do more to undermine the system that made them insanely wealthy than any other presidential candidate in their lifetimes.

New in PN: @timobrien.bsky.social on the decline of The Donald

"He’s never been a linear speaker, but now he talks in circles that would defy Magellan to make sense of. He’s sleeping routinely during White House events. He’s simply not the man he was a decade ago, and that was a low benchmark.”

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

When Renee Good said "I'm not mad at you" what the ICE goon heard was "I'm not scared of you."

That's what enraged him. The populace wasn't fully terrorized and cowed into submission yet, so he acted to make that happen.

This is a big deal.
Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.

Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.

The sheer number of videos of the shooting is horrific, but in the vein of what @prisonculture.bsky.social has been saying, it proves how many people cared enough to show up where ICE was and record them. It wasn't just one or two legal observers, and when Good was shot, they didn't abandon her.
