🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

The Gravamen of the Disclosure

4. The gravamen of the disclosure is as follows:
a. By memorandum dated May 12, 2025 (“the May 12 Memo”), Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons authorizes ICE agents to forcibly enter into certain people’s homes without a judicial warrant, consent, or an emergency.

b. Specifically, in the May 12 Memo, the Acting ICE Director authorized ICE Agents to rely on Form I-205 (which is not a judicial warrant) to enter the residence of an alien subject to a final order of deportation, without consent, including by “a necessary and reasonable amount of force.”2c. While addressed to “All ICE Personnel,” in practice the May 12 Memo has not been formally distributed to all personnel. Instead, the May 12 Memo has been provided to select DHS officials who are then directed to verbally brief the new policy for action. Those supervisors then show the Memo to some employees, like our clients, and direct them to read the Memo and return it to the supervisor.

people need to look up Operation Himmler-

-and the elaborate, fabricated ways in which Nazi Germany tried to paint Poland as the aggressor to justify invading it.

This is the first example I’ve seen of an American government using AI to meaningfully misrepresent actual events with the intent to deceive the public. We are at Stalinesque levels of propaganda.

This is entirely driven by small businesses, for whom a day of lost revenue is a big deal.

Who is not participating? Minnesota’s 17 Fortune 500 companies. “Those organizations have not spoken publicly about the federal immigration activity.”

Read Rümeysa Öztürk's piece in Vanity Fair last year about what the administration put her through just for co-authoring an op-ed and what she witnessed in ICE prison.

False Knees @falseknees.bsky.social · 3h

Finished is better than terrible #oldknees

A crow kicks a small ball of snow. They then start rolling it into a larger ball while saying "trust the process...". They kick more snow into a pile and stick a branch in repeating "trust the process" to itself. They place small stones. They say "Phew!" and stand back to look at its creation, which we see now is a mess of a project that looks somewhat like a melted bird. The final panel the crow says "haha it's terrible".

Galah Cockatoo for #Birbfest2026. Oh gosh these guys are colorful and cute!

I found an ink brush that I really like and I think you can tell - the lines on this guy are so bubbly and energertic, the fun I had drawing carries through the art.

At the FC art show, I pointed at this drawing and told my friend it was the best drawing on the entire wall. He chortled, and I replied "No, I'm serious."

I told him that my joy in drawing had been lost and this was the 3AM piece that reminded me art is fun.

And he placed an immediate $100 bid 😭💕
