After ICE agents shot people in Minneapolis tonight, a crowd faced them down and eventually chased them away, despite federal mercenaries and police shooting a tremendous amount of tear gas.
ICE agents abandoned vehicles in the area, containing IDs, paperwork, license plates, and operational plans.

asking for help: this morning I've seen a post promoting the release of a new, large, and curated dataset which *could* be used for LLM training and MT. What I remember is: it was a version 3 and it was the outcome of an EU funded project (and it was not OpenLLM Europe) - anyone?
Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.
For the crime of โฆ complaining about government policy.
Core 1A speech.
With cameras rolling, theyโre sniping priests for sport.
