Some days, for no particular reason, I reflect on how stupid the entry into World War One was
Who could have possibly predicted this
Never forget what this is all about
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.

NEW: ICE is leasing offices throughout the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. WIRED is publishing dozens of these locations.
Her community rallied so fast and so diligently. This is a victory to uphold and celebrate. Reminds everyone that it's worth fighting back.
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.

I'm at the Olympics and the entire stadium booed JD Vance. 😌
cover of The Washington Post on Wednesday Feb 4, 2026. Headline on bottom, right: Musk wanted to hook users; his chatbot got more sexual
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

Oh I agree completely! Just wild to see outlets (ahem, WSJ) that are openly and aggressively capitalist as part of their mission to rally this way
This is in the FT!
TFW the Christmas Adventurers Club turns out to be nonfiction

This is not a news outlet.
Quinnipiac gave me unpublished data from new poll and it finds huge, huge, huge percentages of young and working class voters have seen video of Minneapolis shooting.

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
This ends in higher inflation. Middle class households better buckle up
I certainly hope she has a primary challenger if this is the best she can do
Live updates: Around 200 people marched more than two miles from the scene of the shooting to Minneapolis City Hall, shouting “ICE 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.
