If your first reaction to someone having their legs run over by an ICE vehicle is “was he here illegally” then you’ve completely lost your moral compass

The same goes for asking what the “whole story” is

There’s nothing a person could do to justify running them over with a car.

Funny how 7-10 million of us managed to gather all over the country without a single violent incident that was not instigated by MAGA. But the minute a few hundred of us gather to protest ICE we turn into violent rioters who need to be pepper sprayed?

Smells like, complete and utter bullshit.

Governments should desist from posting on the Nazi site. Completely.

Total boycott.

I wonder whether this might impact on the statements that they make…? 🤔
This is so disgusting.

Five roads in New York City made INRIX’s list of the top 25 busiest corridors in 2024, but only one remained on this year’s list. “The congestion pricing program, no doubt, played a role,” Pishue said.

Traffic congestion grew this year in U.S. cities, but NYC saw no increase
Baltimore and Philadelphia saw the largest increases in traffic delays. Congestion pricing may have helped keep New York City traffic in check.

Major victory for writers here:
Some rare good news: Journalists at the PEN Guild won their arbitration case against Politico, which deployed two separate faulty AI products (a "report builder" and a headline and summary generator on the homepage) without their knowledge or input.

That violated their contract, the arbiter found.
Journalists win a key battle over AI in the newsroom
PLUS: Artists fight for an AI transparency law in the belly of the beast, a Spotify mass deletion event, and an interview with a top video games journalist about AI and labor.

part of it is that they hate women, part of it is that they hate her specifically because they think she should want to fuck them, part of it is that all this shit is for the benefit of like 10K people on twitter who've all been legally prohibited from having unsupervised time with their children
I don't really know what the administration hopes to gain by picking fights with the most well-liked pop artists in the United States. You're just generating backlash for no discernible reason outside of owning the libs.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

Yuanxin, the 6 year old kidnapped by ICE earlier this week, has been located in the Office of Refugee Resettlement.

This is also where they sent Emmanuel Garcia, the 15 year old autistic boy who went missing in Texas.

It took his mother 50 days to get him back.

We must get Yuanxin out faster.

It's a noted psychological quirk that white people who hate black people still have black heroes they emulate -- in this case, Idi Amin.
"The Donald Trump administration has changed which holidays qualify for free entrance to national parks, removing two holidays celebrating Black people and adding the president’s birthday."
National parks change prioritizes Trump birthday over days honoring Black people
Free entrance days at national parks no longer include MLK Day and Juneteenth.

I would just like to put on my serious face for a moment to say it is incredibly distressing to see the Times uncritically printing a claim that I have no rights and am so below human as to no longer even register as a biological entity. I will take my snark off for two seconds to show you my pain.

There’s no telling how many similar stories are not being told for fear of retaliation.

By now, everyone should realize Trump is not going after violent criminals or the worst of the worst—he is terrorizing everyone, including U.S. citizens, and their loved ones.
