ICE in Chicago this morning at Elston and Kennicott—a masked agent tells a witness (on the sidewalk) not to get in front of his car.
Feds are continuing kidnappings across the city & burbs after increased activity this month.
No flashy CBP caravans, just a steady stream of covert ICE arrests.

Pressed by Laura Ingraham about "folks on the right" who want to see Barack Obama investigated, Acting AG Todd Blanche says "these investigations have to be done in secret"
NEW: I've been shocked by some of the numbers I've been seeing on behind-the-meter power plants for data centers, so I did a little math.
less than a dozen gas plants being built to power data centers for big tech companies could emit a maximum of nearly 130 million tons of CO2e each year (!)
Is there such a thing as auto-repost? I'd set it for every hour on the hour.
Pretty shocking that northern Virginia would break so heavily against Republicans.
Sure, hundreds of thousands of people there saw themselves, their loved ones, or their friends saw their careers and livelihoods turned upside down by Elon and his DOGE boys.
But where's their bipartisan decorum?
Virginia voters today to the felon squatting in the White House. Thank you!

Typed WOW! in a text (on iphone) and it started to pulsate and I can’t make it stop 🙄
This is monstrous. Just profoundly shameful behavior by our government.

Tucker has decided it’s time to distance himself from Trump, as if it were an accident that he can now wipe off. He may try to scrape off the shit he stepped in, but that stench will never leave him.

They not only won’t cancel; they’ve handed the entire event over to the fascists.
Stephen Miller and Pete Hegseth are sitting at CBS’ table.
FCC’s Brendan Carr has actually been invited, while he’s trying to take away press freedoms.
What we already know about Jared Kushner is infinitely worse, from any possible angle, than anything we ever learned about Hunter Biden. And yet the media is completely ignoring it.
Open corruption is tolerated from one of the two parties. But only one.

Screenshot of a tweet by Senate Judiciary Democrats showing Sen. Blumenthal pressing Trump nominee Justin D. Smith on who won the 2020 election and popular vote, with Smith deflecting by saying only "the person who became president." Blumenthal concludes: "This makes you look ridiculous, if not pathetic." The embedded video shows Smith looking down at a witness table with a nameplate reading "Mr. Justin D. Smith."
If they can't speak truths under oath at their confirmation hearings, how can they be trusted to administer them in court?
@carolecadwalla.bsky.social we were never consulted about AI, this is a good point 👇
While there’s probably no basis in fact for this, I’m going to assume that switching from heat to A/C back to heat again over the course of a 2 week period is as bad for my HVAC system as it is for my mental health.
Again, a chance to remind everyone of this batshit episode - where Karp recited British fascist Oswald Mosley’s speeches for several minutes verbatim to Mosley’s stunned grandson whom Karp was interviewing for a job at Palantir. Karp then did some tai chi moves, left wordlessly - Mosley got the job.
We used to have to get written permission if someone was going to appear in the background of something filmed. How are tech bros allowed to just consume every photo you've ever taken, analyse and name the people in it and use it for their own money making?
NEW: Astronaut Reid Wiseman shares a video of ‘Earthset’ that was taken with his iPhone
“This is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye…” Wiseman said.
This has to be the greatest iPhone video of all time.
Ossoff: "How does American politics really work? It's coin operated. Money goes in, favors come out. It's been running on secret money, corporate money, billionaire money ... all of this gave rise to a depraved president who exploits this rot to empower and enrich himself"
Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.

Sunday news shows are now little performance art pieces where anchors pretend to be interviewing serious politicians and those politicians pretend they’re not lying through their teeth every second of the show.
