BOISE:
TODAY there's a group of right-wing dipshits that are going to be meeting downtown at The Grove near Front and Capitol to try to disrupt a Tim Walz speaking event at Boise Center at 4:30 this afternoon.
If you're in the area around that time, be mindful and stay safe.
Sunny is free. We are so glad that she is with family and on the way home. Sunny and her 5 coworkers were taken to Broadview and then moved to Juneau, Wisconsin where they were finally released from ICE custody. We were lied to the entire time about her location. DHS needs to answer for this.
π© it's true! Black Hammer dabbled in all 3, iirc, and produced similar group control and harm to traditional Greek or military hazing.
Kinda sad seeing reproduction of harm so far inside from where we built up the walls against it.
It's like... organized group predation? Haven't given this much thought but similar situations of that sort of thing don't really come to mind, maybe in the carceral system? I dunno, it might be ignorance but it rings as fringe and not commonly tolerable behavior
That's a great point. There can be asymmetrical power dynamics between individuals with huge disparities, different levels in workplaces for ex, but hazing is a ritual built into explicitly creating and exploiting the biggest disparity they can manufacture in the most dehumanizing ways possible.
Absolutely disgusting abdication of responsibility and duty to prevent future violence on the part of the free press. Almost seems intentional, which is a real glimpse into America generally in this moment.
The bravely standing up guy meme in article format to declare that we need more dehumanization is just a world class awful take. It absolutely opens the door to sexual violence, gender violence, and racialized violence. It must be nice to feel as safe as the author, completely ignorant of harm.
My mom got out of the hospital after being stuck under debris for 2 hours when a roof collapsed in the building she was in.
If yβall could donate to my venmo Iβd really appreciate it so I can help her pay her bills.
βMartinez was not protesting - he was driving by the scene of a road accident where ICE officers were helping to direct trafficβ¦That he was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger."

Update: Sarah Afzul, the woman's sister, told me that Naqvi has been released from a detention facility in Wisconsin, where she was transferred overnight and they've been reunited with her
The family around this Boise queer person is elevating this fundraiser. We are boosting it because we feel that she, like everyone, deserves support and representation during what must be one of the most difficult moments in her life. Please consider helping her out if you are able. Thank you.
It appears that a queer woman, allegedly, committed this act of sabotage.
She will need support, as will the queer community, as will the immigrant communities, in the days of repression ahead.
Solidarity is the way forward, even when, especially when, it is difficult.
Today you should send love to your trans friends. Tomorrow, too. Maybe every day for a while.
Everyone needs to be talking about this.
It's an upgrade, no contest
Found a 1 to 1 replacement for Whiskey Fridays with Tony Dokoupil. Might be an upgrade.

This fucked up world still contains moments of profound beauty and incredible joy. Here's hoping you find something to smile about soon and soon after that.
Ada county is moving to print-on-demand ballots. I'm a pollworker & really looking forward to printer malfunctions slowing down the process. All the more reason to vote early or absentee while we can. Idaho primary deadlines: March 15 - change party affiliation, May 8 - request absentee ballot.
Harper to the judge: "Your driver's license doesn't list your height and weight at birth. It doesn't list where you used to live. It identifies who you are now."
This is heinous.
Not fucking around with the jokes or funny business this week. Follow and support the defendants in the ongoing Prairieland trial.
Protect yourself and those around you: always ask for your attorney and STFU. Practice it, live it, don't run your mouth and get anyone jammed up on false charges.
Handful of other Reps debated in favor basically saying "trust the federal govt, trust ICE. They will pay. It'll be ok."
It's the same reps who vote against funding from the federal govt every time.
HB 659 passed the House. Moves to the Senate.
Late last year I covered the case of QueerDoc, a small, telehealth gender-affirming care practice that received a subpoena from Trump's DOJ. The subpoena was blocked by a federal judge, but the DOJ appealed, and the 9th Circuit is hearing oral arguments today.
Strong suspicion being raised that all testimony given by cooperators is under duress citing horrific jail conditions
On the House floor now is HB 659. This is the bill telling local law enforcement to enter into a 287(g) jail agreement with ICE.
Local law enforcement testified against this in the house committee hearing. They did not want to act as immigration agents on top of their normal duties.
Idaho reps stop being weird challenge: failed
Morning! Only a couple committees meeting this morning.
