They are terrified of whistles, enraged by cellphones and quite concerned by little old ladies and folks with dyed hair.
one of the agents said “okay we know” when we were whistling so i leaned in and whistled louder and he threatened to pepper spray me. i then said “are you scared of a fucking whistle dawg” and he very meekly said “no i’m not scared of a whistle”

A woman reported being raped by her boyfriend who was a police officer.
She ended up being charged instead.
Another example of ACAB and how they close ranks to protect their own.
This is an appalling miscarriage of justice that will dissuade victims from coming forward

you can’t fucking dox a public official!
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."

What the actual fuck is this?
Two people have been abducted from Scotland in the middle of the night by the US military. Despite an order from our highest court that they be kept here.
The Scottish Government must show that actions have consequences by evicting American troops from their base at publicly-owned Prestwick Airport

Wanting to sell my Heroscape, Warhammer, Gundam cards and my last magic deck to try and offset a vehicle repair bill that's nearly 1k in cost.
Hit me in the inbox if you want info on the individual items and cards. Can work out a price for individual items of interest.

Donald remains laser-focused on bringing the cost of groceries down.
FBI raid underway at the Fulton County election hub.
So, first Trump has 2 people murdered in an attempt to force a state to hand over voter rolls.
Now the FBI is going after the exact place Trump had grievances with because he lost an election and they wouldn't fudge the numbers for him.

Just a reminder that both Ilhan Omar and Maxwell Frost have been attacked this week.
No outrage by right-wing media or even corporate media.
Now imagine if this were done to Republicans.
The entire system is rigged in favor of conservatives, folks. The double standards are just wild.

After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.

the pedant in me wants to say "keith porter was killed 90 minutes before the new year so he shouldn't count as a 2026 ice killing"
the rest of me is like "ok but most people who leave him out do so not for that technicality but because he was a black man."
so i'm okay not being a pedant here.
