Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...

DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."

But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

LOL, I’m sure this is what Grant and Eisenhower thought, too.

This is not the best part of the firing, but it’s in the Top 10.

Costco CEO says any tariff refunds it gets will flow back to members through 'lower prices and better values' Costco challenges the US government over IEEPA tariffs, with CEO Ron Vachris pledging to pass refund benefits to members.

Costco is now demanding that Trump pay them back for his tariffs so they can refund all of their customers.

Sanewashing is like a religion now. The glorious rapture in which Donald Trump acts like a sane and normal person and adopts moderate, mainstream policies is coming any day now!

I think the only relevant thing at play here was the global "do not irritate trump gratuitously" move that only works as a strategy 33% of the time.

Congress Is Considering Abolishing Your Right to Be Anonymous Online The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.

"Stripping anonymity from the internet would constitute one of the most sweeping rollbacks of civil rights in recent history. It would allow for unprecedented levels of mass surveillance and censorship, endangering the most marginalized members of society."

the funny part is going to be when nobody thinks of turning off all those videos of Noem at the airports, and they just play until the whole admin finally crumbles

The US and China opposed condemning Russia for it's attacks on civilian infrastructure.

They are OK with war crimes against civilians, putting them in the dark and cold at temperatures of -20Β° C, or -4Β°F.

This will not be forgotten.

Boycott the #USA and #China where you can..

I'm especially proud today of my colleague @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social, whom the White House not long ago called a "media offender" and accused of pushing "fantasy" and "a lie" when he reported that Trump was thinking of replacing Kristi Noem.

And one of the sick ironies of the ICE occupation is that because they've been targeting non-white people at random, that includes people who have been on this continent 10,000 years longer than the rest of us.

People think of Minnesota and think of a bunch of taciturn Norwegians, but there is quite a significant Native American population.

"I respect Bernie Sanders because he's an open socialist, and you know that he's a communist so you know what you're getting. Rand Paul's a freaking snake. And I understand completely why his neighbor did what he did. And I told him that to his face."

"I respect Bernie Sanders because he's an open socialist, and you know that he's a communist so you know what you're getting. Rand Paul's a freaking snake. And I understand completely why his neighbor did what he did. And I told him that to his face."

This is what Markwayne Mullin said about Rand Paul a couple weeks ago.

Anyway, guess who chairs the Senate Homeland Security Committee

We are calling on Congress to protect the editorial independence of @starsandstripes.bsky.social, which provides crucial reporting to service members and the public.

ICE detains reporter Estefany RodrΓ­guez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany RodrΓ­guez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

We don’t yet know if Estefany RodrΓ­guez’s detention was in retaliation for her reporting but we certainly wouldn’t be surprised.

ICE abductions of noncitizen journalists take the reporters best equipped to cover immigration enforcement off the beat.

Was AI used for the targeting that likely resulted in the bombing of the girls school?

We must have answers to that question and there is ZERO reason for delay because the Pentagon damn well already knows the answer.
