Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

Rep. Al Green held a sign as Trump walked by him in the chamber reading "Black people aren't apes." He was just removed from the chamber.

It’s like nothing anyone has ever seen before (whisper) no one has ever seen. . . Just think of that, like never happened before, all in a little country called USA!

This is from The Guardian US which I also write for. The editorial decisions etc. generally come large US teams in US based newsrooms! There’s some shared DNA with the UK Guardian but it’s an American operation.

Guys, this is 95% chance this is someone impersonating Trump. Have a chuckle, move along.

This is so on the nose!

The effects being seen in the wild now. I even got a reference to Sidney Powell of Facebook today.

I wonder if they got make up to touch them up for them?

Here’s an example of a local newsroom actually informing the public about AI (the role of journalism) versus the blatant AI boosterism we’re seeing many other newsrooms engage in to the detriment of the entire profession

Whoa! A group of masked ice “bouncers” following an exec order to check IDs in front of state run polling stations.

Sounds like a breach of the constitution.

The example is kind of gross, but he has a point. Bluesky doesn’t track big events like Twitter did.

Something huge will have happened and trending topics will be “football, Muppets. . .”

Rasmussen’s poll of Trump approval is at -16

That is wild

I was wondering when she was going to fish around for a job in the admin.

Thus, rather than require such adjudications, the Department is changing its regulations to provide the Board more flexibility in reviewing appeals. Instead, for appeals taken from decisions issued after this IF becomes effective, as explained in Section IV.A of this preamble, the default will be summary dismissal unless a majority of current Board members vote to consider the appeal on the merits. And such dismissals will occur quickly—within 15 days of filing the appeal—allowing aliens to seek Federal court review expeditiously, rather than potentially waiting for years for a Board decision that in the vast majority of cases would affirm the underlying Immigration Judge decision.

🚨HOLY CRAP. The Trump admin just took a SLEDGEHAMMER to due process, largely eliminating the Board of Immigration Appeals process and MANDATING DISMISSAL of ALL appeals (which cost $1,000 thanks to OBBBA) filed after tomorrow unless a majority of the BIA votes to hear the case.

Dude, the madrigal crowd is no joke!!

Thanks for the note.

I put it to the hip-hop subreddit, everyone was stumped. Maybe in another language, but no English mainstream or alternative tracks.

One thing that bugs me:

Except for Slick Rick on “Auditorium”, there’s zero 1st person rap songs about Iraq or Afghanistan.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Canada weighs sending soldiers to Greenland as show of NATO solidarity with Denmark Move would likely anger U.S. President Trump, who has threatened new tariffs on European countries that sent miliary personnel to Greenland

Every State Should Be Saying This…

Larry Krasner, Philadelphia DA:
Donald Trump cannot pardon you for a state court conviction. Do you hear me, ICE agent. I will charge you with those crimes. You will be arrested. You will stand trial. You will be convicted. 👏

Beat this @nytpitchbot.bsky.social

Serious issue with defunding ICE or it running out of a mission:

What to do with the 1000s of indoctrinated agents, who have a network, who are now used to violence and missing their paycheques.

Don’t forget Steven Millers “I hate my enemies” speech at C Kirk’s memorial. Piecing together these past statements help make sense of today!

@jennycohn.bsky.social

And! They were eating the dogs and the cats of neighbors!

Funny, not funny. Whatever ends they are after seem to justify the lies.
