ICE is STILL in Minnesota and STILL terrorizing communities. Reporters that say otherwise are either uninformed (which....) or lazy (which... ) or just repeating regime lies (which... is also extremely bad).

People are still missing, people are and will be traumatized, businesses demolished...

Tried out the beige box when I had a copy waaay back. It kind of worked/kind of didn't. But it was fun to bridge the gap between wiring and actual utility!

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.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

Thinking about how a younger me believed, like a lot of early-entry software engineers, that given enough information, people would naturally make good choices for everyone.

Man, do I have words for younger me...

Karoline Leavitt told us the US State Department was helping Americans stranded in the Middle East.

She lied.

One Texas woman in Dubai called the State Department hotline, was scolded for being scared and then hung up on.

This administration is *full* of incompetent, rude people.

We’ve got to keep the Epstein victims and survivors centered while we pursue transparency and accountability.

Their stories must be told.

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack.

Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

Maybe it’s a bad idea to put people in charge of government who are eager for the rapture.

Trump bombed Iran because we were dangerously close to obtaining the statements from a victim who Trump allegedly "forced to perform oral sex on him when she was 13 or 14 years old and subsequently hit her." This story was building in the news. These Trump survivors still deserve justice!

There was no imminent threat. The narrative keeps shifting. The nuclear claims are contradictory. So let’s start there.

As we just saw in the Pentagon press-con, there is no clear strategy.

This bipartisan Iran War Powers Resolution has been sitting with Speaker Johnson since June 2025.

BREAKING: A 4th U.S. service member has been killed in the military operation with Iran.

I want you all to remember that we had a way to stop iran from getting nuclear weapons. It was a nuclear agreement that the international community all agreed was working.

We didn’t want another war. It wasn’t explained why we began a war when Iran posed no threat. After earlier attack Trump said he β€œdecimated” Iran’s nuclear abilities.
On this attack he focused on killing leadership. Also bombed a girls elementary school.
War for regime change has never gone well

Kaine on Fox: "The president can act to defend US against imminent attack without congressional approval. But if you're going to initiate war, you need Congress. The president not only did not come to Congress, he acted without even notification to the vast majority of us. This is an illegal war."
