Good-faith concern on this issue would be going, "hmm, professional sports leagues should probably have some standards in place to ensure trans competitors aren't getting an unfair advantage," googling for 5 minutes, realizing every sports league already has those standards and dropping it.

New story from @jcollins.bsky.social on ICE attempts to intimidate ICE Watch observers in Minneapolis, including ICE letting them know they know where they live—by leading them to their homes www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

The first time Kovarik saw private data used by ICE agents was a couple days after Christmas. They were observing ICE agents while a friend from Robbinsdale drove. The agents had already stopped them to warn they'd be arrested, but they kept following the vehicle. Then they realized the agents were leading them to their friend's home in Robbinsdale.
"He pulled up to her house, both the agents got out of the car and were both performatively and theatrically taking pictures of her house," Kovarik said. "Then they drove off and they went around to the back alley behind her house and took pictures of the back of her house."
It happened again to Kovarik last week when an ICE agent led them to a residence where Kovarik used to live.
"It's one of many intimidation tactics, and obviously people should be safe," Kovarik said, "but if you feel pretty comfortable that ... they're not really going to be able to do anything to harm you, I think it's to our benefit to show them that we're not scared."

I'm going to post the link to the video but not the actual video which autoplays and is utterly brutal. Instead I'm posting the photo of the man before ICE assaulted him. bsky.app/profile/dmbm...

Photo of young man in car who has literally just had his driver side window busted out by ICE, captured by a photographer and posted to Getty images. This was likely the beginning of the video that ends with him surrounded by agents who choked him out, eventually dragged his limp body face first across the pavement as they cuffed him and took him away.

“Can I check a pulse?” yelled the bystander, standing across Portland Avenue from Renee Good’s lifeless body inside her crashed SUV, video footage of the exchange shows. “No,” an agent replies. “Back up.” “I’m a physician!” “I don’t care.”

bit.ly

‘I’m a physician,’ he said. ‘Don’t care’ was the reply.

Bystander medical assistance was declined during the restraint-related death of George Floyd, and now after the shooting of Renee Good.

That video of ICE killing the woman is horrifying. The most gutless and cowardly group of people empowered by a psychopathic administration. And even when the video clearly shows an execution, they’re already lying about the context of the killing. Evidence doesn’t matter. They just kill and lie.

Imagine being made to spend 11 days inside a coffin. Imagine being made to spend more than a day inside a box barely two feet large in any direction. Imagine having to curl up, unable to extend any of your extremities, in the claustrophobic conditions of such a box, for more than a cumulative day. You can see pictures Abu Zubaydah drew of himself in the small box. Now imagine this being done to someone you love.

I say all this because the following description appears in an Amnesty International report released Friday into the conditions of confinement for migrants at Alligator Alcatraz:

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find: - NONE of the arrested were criminally charged - NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists." - ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

As a Black Hawk helicopter roared overhead, the slender, 28-year-old immigrant from Venezuela answered softly, his eyes darting to a television crew invited to film the raid. Next to Caicedo, masked Border Patrol agents inspected another man’s tattoos and asked him if he belonged to Tren de Aragua, the Venezuelan gang that the Trump administration has designated a terrorist group.

Until that moment, Caicedo’s only interaction with law enforcement in his two-and-a-half years in the United States had been a traffic stop two weeks earlier for driving without a license or insurance, according to the records we reviewed. Chicago police had run a background check on him and found no prior arrests, no warrants and no evidence that he was in a gang. Caicedo said he had a pending asylum application, a steady job at a taco joint and a girlfriend whose daughter attended elementary school across the street.

None of that mattered. The U.S. government paraded him and his neighbors in front of the cameras and called their arrests a spectacular victory against terrorism. But later, after the cameras had gone, prosecutors didn’t charge Caicedo with a crime. They didn’t accuse him of being a terrorist. And after a brief hearing in immigration court, the government sent him back to the country he had fled nine years earlier.

“I lost everything,” he said in a phone interview from his mother’s home in the Venezuelan city of Valencia. “For those fools, everyone from Venezuela is a criminal.”
