Dial D for dysfunction San Francisco’s 911 dispatchers are being asked to work with antiquated equipment, crazy hours, poor mental health, and alongside new trainees who aren’t prepared

Some of the city's most experienced 911 dispatchers tell Gazetteer that the dispatch office is in dire straits due to poor management, broken equipment, flawed training, and low morale.

The dispatchers fear it could get somebody killed.

Someone on Polymarket has just placed a $100k bet that the US will strike Iran today. $4m payout if true.

More money than sense or insider information, you decide.

My story on Elon Musk cutting safeguards at xAI is on the front page of today's @washingtonpost.com. I’m also among 100’s of reporters laid off. I absolutely loved my job my brilliant coworkers & the thrill of reporting @ the center of forces upending the world: AI & Silicon Valley’s political power

Four Oglala detainees located, three still in ICE custody - ICT The four Lakota detainees were reportedly sent to a former concentration camp used during the Dakota Wars

This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars.

Quinnipiac gave me unpublished data from new poll and it finds huge, huge, huge percentages of young and working class voters have seen video of Minneapolis shooting.

Majorities of both disapprove of ICE. Pundits are getting the working class/immigration wrong:

Wow β€” New YouGov / Economist poll:

46% support abolishing ICE
43% oppose abolishing ICE

This is the first time that abolishing ICE has received net positive support

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003

when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

Live: ICE agent shoots, kills woman in Minneapolis Video of the shooting shows an agent firing at a vehicle as it drives toward him. The governor and Minneapolis mayor called for calm after the incident. ICE said the agent acted defensively.

Live updates: Around 200 people marched more than two miles from the scene of the shooting to Minneapolis City Hall, shouting β€œICE out now!” after police hurried away from the scene Wednesday afternoon.

The crowd of is continuing to snake its way through downtown.

Every second the murderer is not arrested is another second for feds to hide him in a place that would create a jurisdictional fight. He's on video killing a person. You have to arrest this guy an hour ago, but you might still have time now.

Minneapolis mayor says ICE officer’s killing of motorist was β€˜reckless’ and wasn’t self-defense An ICE officer shot and killed a Minneapolis motorist, which federal officials claimed was an act of self-defense but the city’s mayor said was β€œreckless.”

The shooting marks a dramatic escalation of the latest in a series of immigration enforcement operations in major American cities under the Trump administration. It’s at least the fifth person killed in a handful of states since 2024.

1/ In 2022, one year after Trump incited the seditious attack on the US Capitol, I posted a long thread of images on Twitter, because revisionist attempts to create a false narrative about that day were already well underway.

Today, in 2025, I’m re-creating/re-posting that same thread here.πŸ‘‡

The moral failure of our opposition’s leadership is easily simulated by simply imagining the response if the government was engaging in the mass dispossession of white people’s property with the intent of redistribution to its political base

Whistles, Signal and school patrols: how ordinary Americans are fighting back against ICE As Trump carries out his mass deportation operation, residents are banding together to block raids and distribute groceries

I spoke to people who are standing up to ICE - from a real estate appraiser chasing ICE on his bike to a fetish shop owner distributing whistles and an undocumented social worker putting money in detainees’ commissary accounts
