"a lot of people are posting about the bus kidnapping story, surely it can't be that bonkers"

my friends this is an actual odyssey
I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

No but actually back it up and maybe I’ll care. The Senators selling Hollander and Rozanov jerseys but signing a homophobe the same week while HR fans go “omg this is incredible” is actually going to send me into a rage coma.

I first noticed @marisakabas.bsky.social's byline a few years ago, when she interviewed the Kansas editor whose home was raided by cops.

I don't know of any independent, solo journalist who does--as she did here--more actual reporting, as contrasted to bullshitting, about big news events.

New — I wrote about ChongLy Scott Thao, the elderly Hmong American wrongly arrested and forced out of his home by ICE in his underwear during the punishing Minnesota winter, what witnesses saw, and DHS's racist claim that he fit the description of another Asian man they were looking for.

My story:
Behind the disturbing image of ICE snatching a half-naked, elderly Hmong American from his home
DHS has claimed without evidence that they were looking for someone else when they took ChongLy Scott Thao.

I think it’s fine to say that someone who has served as a major conduit and creator of fascist propaganda and the wide end of a funnel into fascist thinking and action can never be trusted. If his heart has genuinely changed he should simply shut the fuck up. We owe Hanania nothing.

If the Sharks want to say "screw it, this is a fun year, let's reward the guys", that's fine, but you gotta be moving literal no value assets or take $$$ no one wants. Giving up 2 2nds is a bad choice. That's significant ammo that could be used to help land a serious asset.

Kiefer Sherwood is a nice power forward who thrives as a disruptor off-puck and goal scorer with it. He's excellent at recovering pucks on the forecheck, helping his D on counter-attacks, can play the PK, and provides individual shot creation & finishing for some good scoring depth.

they’re going to need to impose consequences that are felt in a personal way by the people in charge

ruining Trump’s big sports show, travel bans for the GOP (or, hell, all of congress), travel bans for rich Trump allies, sanctions on the Trump family

they feel invincible, change their minds
Honestly boycotting the World Cup would be the most effective and probably the least disruptive of all of the options available to Europe. I’m not sure how you can send teams and fans to contribute to a spectacle designed entirely to celebrate a guy trying to invade your territory.

Just for the record, and it’s insane that the mad king made me look this up, there is documentation of the US giving up all claim to Greenland to Denmark when we bought the Virgin Islands from them in 1916.

I’ve seen a lot going around about these cells reserved for US citizens, and it’s worth reminding people that ICE officers (and immigration officers in general) do in fact have legal authority to arrest US citizens for any felonies or “offenses against the United States” witnessed by an officer.
Missed this a few days ago:

Two U.S. citizens grabbed by ICE say there were cells reserved for Americans.

Also, they weren’t given medical attention or allowed to go to the bathroom.

This is literally what I've been writing and podcasting about for years. I was planning to do an essay on this, but here's a 🧵.

The main reason is psychology. Due to personal, family, and cultural histories, some people are inherently scared of the world.
Fight and help win a world war.

Establish a global order that cements your national power for 80 years.

Blow it all up.

Carter Hart has 0 steals and 5 chokes this season on a 5-3-3 record. This means that with how the Vegas skaters played in those games, they were expected to go 10-0-1.

I've heard rumors that Philadelphia is next for the ICE invasion after Minneapolis.
Maybe I'm wrong, but
1) More than 11% of all ICE agents are in Minneapolis, and they've utterly failed to pacify the city.
2) Philly is 5x the size of Minneapolis.
3) "Minnesota nice" is a thing. We don't have that.

This dude is so busy trying to prove he's "one of the good ones" that he arrests someone just like him, for the crime of being like him, and he tells the guy just as much.

You will never be one of the "good ones" whether you're black, gay, Hispanic, Asian, or whatever else. The maw is insatiable.
How much more in your face can it be?
