When I was cleaning my email, I realized I had some kindle books I had bought to give away (inspired by @kithrup.bsky.social)
So if you need something to distract you, may I offer Rosemary and Rue by @seananmcguire.bsky.social? Links in next post

An important point here: admin leave is a necessary and expected minimum response after someone has been fatally shot, even in cases in which there is no real question that it was justified. You just took a life.

Literally EVERYTHING else aside:
Officers involved in shootings - even shootings that everybody agrees were justified - always take time off to emotionally process their experience, go to therapy, process it.
Sending somebody right back out says "this is an everyday part of your job, expect it."

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.
This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

Conflicting info about whether Pretti was murdered by ICE or CBP makes it clear that ICE is not single "rogue agency"
ICE, CBP and ALL policing & borders must be abolished. This isn't just one agency; its an entire infrastructure of carceral control, illegalization & criminalization, and fascism.

Yeah, one hates to say it but yes
It is funny that the current FBI director treats the job like it's a trip to Entourage Disneyland, but bear in mind that for us this is probably the best possible outcome. I do not want Trump's FBI director to actually care about the job

Respectfully, I am going to whisper to some of our white comrades a truth that should be more widely known: You definitely have some ancestors to be proud of, ancestors who refused white supremacy, and poured out their lives in many of these struggles over time.
Time to claim your true history.

My mayor told me police keep killing his constituents so I asked how many constituents he has and he said he just gives the police more money for training afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just paying the police to kill his constituents and then Matt Yglesias started crying.

Sitting here thinking "what would Murderbot do" in any of the hundred horrible situations happening in the states right now. Probably do something to help an individual or small group, while trying not to have a system shutdown. No wonder we identify with these books.

It's not lost on me that an intended side effect of doing this is putting children of color behind in their educations.
Apparently ICE goons in multi-car caravans are circling Spanish immersion preschools in the city taunting and photographing the parents and neighbors who are patrolling the school perimeter to keep kids safe.

My mom used to pay for groceries by writing a physical check. And a full cart of groceries, meant to feed 6 people for a week, was less than $200.

He circled her vehicle like a shark, got told off by her wife, came up to her again, executed her, and called her a “fucking bitch” as she died. This was a homophobic and misogynistic murder in service of the State’s project of ethnic cleansing.

BREAKING: The Senate just PASSED a bill to prevent war with Venezuela.
Don't let anyone tell you this is just symbolic. We will keep pushing until it passes the House, and then we push to pass it with a veto-proof majority.
No war. No occupation.
