An FBI agent conducted an initial review of the Renee Good killing and determined sufficient grounds existed to open a civil rights probe into the actions of the ICE officer who shot her. Justice Department says no inquiry is warranted. @perrystein.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Screenshot of a post on X by Brian Tyler Cohen (@brian…) quoting Pete Buttigieg. The quote says an ICE agent should have been trained not to stand in front of a vehicle or shoot into a moving vehicle, and claims this happened on Kristi Noem’s watch. It adds that the point of Homeland Security is to make the country more stable and safe, and argues the opposite has occurred under the administration. Below the text is a video thumbnail showing Pete Buttigieg speaking directly to camera indoors, seated in front of a framed picture and a lamp, with a 0:27 timestamp and a speaker icon.
Pete Buttigieg is absolutely correct. We must hold Noem accountable for what happens in her department.
Screenshot of a post on X by MeidasTouch (@MeidasTo…) reading: “This is so humiliating for everyone involved.” The post quotes Acyn (@Acyn), who transcribes a Fox News exchange: “Hannity: Do you have any plans to meet with Machado and would you accept the Nobel prize she wants to hand to you?” and “Trump: I understand she's coming in the next week sometime…..that would be a great honor.” Below is a Fox News video still showing Donald Trump seated across from Sean Hannity in an interview setting with a fireplace behind them. A banner reads “EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP” with “BREAKING NEWS,” and a “cc” closed-caption icon appears on the video.
Malignant narcissists should never hold high office.
An ICE agent killed a Minneapolis mother and the Trump administration continues to mislead the public despite what videos clearly show. The House passed a three year extension of ACA premium subsidies after Republicans broke ranks. The Senate voted to rein in Trump’s war powers in Venezuela.
Screenshot of a post on X by Acyn (@Acyn) quoting “Garcia” saying: “Every American should be outraged by what happened in Minneapolis.” The quote adds that the lack of accountability and the DOJ investigating itself is “insane,” and says they can’t be trusted to investigate anything. Below the text is a video thumbnail showing a man in a dark suit and red tie standing outdoors near large stone steps and a government building, with streetlights and parked cars in the background. A watermark reads “MEIDASTOUCH NETWORK,” and a “cc” closed-caption icon appears in the corner.
They’re going to handle this the way they handled the Epstein files.
Screenshot of a post on X by Acyn (@Acyn) quoting Thomas Massie warning DOJ officials that they can be prosecuted by a future DOJ for violating the law, saying it is not a congressional subpoena that expires and “will last forever.” Below the text is a CNN split-screen video still showing a male anchor on the left and Massie on the right. A banner reads “EPSTEIN FALLOUT” and “LAWMAKERS ASK JUDGE TO APPOINT INDEPENDENT MONITOR TO ENSURE DOJ FULLY RELEASES EPSTEIN FILES,” with a red “LIVE” indicator and a “cc” icon.
Massie reminds the DOJ that laws will outlast regimes.
Screenshot of a post on X by FactPost (@factpostnews) quoting a pastor describing an encounter with ICE agents. The text says he saw ICE agents circling a young Hispanic woman and told an agent to stop harassing her. He says the agent got in his face, pointed a gun at him, and asked if he was afraid. The pastor says he was then handcuffed, put in the back of an SUV, and told, “Well, you’re white, you won’t be any fun anyway.” Below the quote is a video still from MSNBC showing a middle-aged man with glasses speaking from a home office with bookshelves and rainbow-colored blankets on chairs behind him. A banner reads “BREAKING NEWS: MINNEAPOLIS PASTOR SAYS HE WAS DETAINED BY ICE,” with “Katy Tur Reports” and MSNBC branding.
They’re not even trying to hide the white supremacy any more.
Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder.
" Federal courts in Alabama are using a law last applied during the U.S. internment [incarceration] of people of Japanese descent during World War II to charge immigrants who don’t register themselves..."

They’re trying to deport witnesses to a murder by ICE guards
How were those laws STILL on the books? Ugh.
Thank you!
President Zelensky and Portuguese PM Luís Montenegro honored fallen Ukrainian soldiers by laying flowers at the Wall of Remembrance in Kyiv. Montenegro’s visit to Ukraine began on December 20 with this gesture.
More Americans need to learn about the benefits of libraries, so help spread the word.

Name the publishing houses.
Because I read like a vulture but I won't read shit...
And I will happily one-star review books by these publishers. Sucks for those authors.
Class action law suit might be the only way.

The review team consisted of more than 200 Department attorneys working to determine whether materials were responsive under the Act and. if`so, whether redactions or withholding was required. The review had multiple levels. First, 187 attorneys from the Department`s National Security Division (NSD) conducted a review of all items produced to JMD for responsiveness and any redactions under the Act. Second, a quality-control team of 25 attorneys conducted a second-level review to ensure that victim personally identifying information was properly redacted and that materials that should not be redacted were not marked for redaction, The second-level review team consisted of attorneys from the Department's Office of Privacy and Civil Liberties (OPCL) and Office of Information Policy (OIP)--these attorneys are experts in privacy rights and reviewing large volumes of discovery. After the second-level review team completed its quality review, responsive materials were uploaded onto the website for public production as required under the Act. See Sec. 2(a). Finally, Assistant United States Attorneys from the Southern District of New York reviewed the responsive materials to confirm appropriate redactions so that the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York could certify that victim identifying information was appropriately protected.
Blanche also said 200 DOJ attorneys reviewed the files and redacted the documents after the Act was signed into law. But as I reported, based on docs I obtained via #FOIA, the FBI directed 934 agents & other personnel to review & redact the files earlier this year.
In WSJ, a detailed unraveling of how Putin came to pick Trump's negotiating team for Ukraine, kicking out Gen Kellogg and putting Steve Witkoff in his place. Astonishing detail here. www.wsj.com/world/putin-...
The Nazis did exactly this sort of thing.
"They’re counting on us to go quiet. They’re counting on the holidays. They’re counting on distraction. They’re counting on the news cycle flipping to something else.
My sources say they believe they bought time—Congress goes dark ... Trump disappears into Mar-a-Lago, and everyone 'moves on.'”
Data Set 3 is a bunch of naked young girls.
Plus, a lot of naked photos that look a lot like Melania's naked photos.
Data Set 2 is an endless stream of Epstein and Maxwell vacation photos, with pedo Jean-Luc Brunel a constant companion.
I was intrigued by Washington Post C.T.O. Vineet Khosla’s take on the much-maligned rollout of the Post’s A.I. tools — which, as Semafor has reported, are furnishing readers and podcast listeners with inaccuracies and fabricated quotes. The conventional response here would be a hasty recall and mea culpa, but Khosla is standing firm and saying the company will “iterate through the remaining issues.” In a recent interview with The Rebooting’s Brian Morrissey, Khosla cast the media’s obsession with accuracy as an impediment to innovation. Whereas the tech instinct is to ship, observe, and iterate, the media instinct — or, really, the journalistic instinct — is to prevent error. “Getting something slightly wrong is not the end of the world [in tech],” Khosla said, “but getting something slightly wrong in the world of media is often perceived as the end of the world.” I can hear the J-school crowd hyperventilating here, but it’s worth noting that this reflexively risk-averse mindset is precisely why investors typically hate media — and why it often takes the industry so long to catch up to changes in consumer behavior.
WaPo CTO Vineet Khosla: "Hey kids I see you like podcasts! What do you say to a podcast that's a lot like the podcasts you already love, only is sucks shit? Pretty cool, huh?"

"They were best friends," David Frum says of Trump and Epstein. "The only photos you ever see of Donald Trump where he is authentically smiling in the presence of another human being, is with Jeffrey Epstein."
