Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning
I was sent this video of agents at her door:

BREAKING: Immigration officers are asserting sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, a memo obtained by AP says.
🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

This lovely lady has taken up residence in the hat that was used to move her and her egg sack from the recycling bin to a safer place. She chose to stay in the hat…
This administration needs to stop targeting international reporters, they’re the ones helping spread the truth. In multiple videos, officers are seen aiming directly at them, fully aware they’re members of the press. These so-called “non-lethal” rounds can absolutely be lethal.
Horrendous. A man lying on the ground is repeatedly beaten by LA riot police, before one deliberately tramples him with horse.
These officers should face charges.

The Trump administration is escalating efforts to suppress internal dissent and tighten control over information. A new wave of polygraphs is underway, targeting individuals suspected of leaking or resisting from within. Internal guidance has been distributed. Please 🙏 read and follow!
Sometimes you have to take the win…
Do I wanna be warm? Of course. Do I want my house to be warm? Absolutely not. I want my house to be just cold enough that I can smother myself in blankets *thereby becoming* warm. Please respect my process.
Accidentally sideways photo of mossy ground cover with tiny white flowers. Sedum, perhaps?
Closer view of the mossy plant
Still sideways close-up pf the mossy plant.
Plant identification question: i have this stuff, spreading on a patch of shady ground on the verge of the woods. Seems to be 3” - 4” thick off the ground. Possibly a moss? Mid-Hudson Valley NY. Any plant peeps have a thought? #garden #plant #mosses
"Some National Weather Service offices, including Jackson, no longer have overnight staff from midnight to 7AM.
All three Kentucky offices - Jackson, Paducah and Louisville - are short-staffed.
There is no meteorologist in charge at any of the three offices..."

OK, this is wild.
In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.
It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.
What the HELL?

It’s a really interesting app! Sadly, i will also no longer be getting Tito’s Vodka 😔
I have no words… i have too many words, and they just get tangled up in all the anger. F@ck these incompetent imbeciles.
Just FYI, Peets also gave heavily to the Republican party in the last election. (I use an app called “Goods Unite Us” to check various companies)

Basically: I don’t think people understand that 36 hours from now it’s possible that America will have a formalized system for abducting enemies of the regime and stashing them in foreign gulags, indefinitely.
