Same with Haaland's push/Anderson's dive that took away the tying Norway goal. It's not that any of these VAR calls, in a vacuum, are wrong. It's that there are <dozens of similar things> that are left uncalled & the bias always tilts toward the higher-ranked team, especially when that team is 🇦🇷

Between this and the national guard in Memphis it’s kind of disturbing me (yes I know I’m a member of the media) the degree to which these killings aren’t really breaking thru rn

Everybody in the "climate space" (which means everyone on earth...) needs to understand these mind-blowing figures. Google's "total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025." In ONE year. The AI corporate arms race is eating the world.

I do not think ANY of the decisions of this court are legitimate no matter whether some lawyers like how they ruled or not. It's the fruit of a poisonous tree. Gotta uproot the whole thing.

Been waiting for this story. ICE deports people to Venezuela three times a week, there are likely many more recent deportees with valid asylum claims in the rubble. Hope that GlobalX crew loses some sleep knowing they flew a planeload of shackled men & women, plus seven children, to their deaths.

Annoyingly, this doesn’t specify what exactly is happening. But it sure seems like DHS filed a “motion to pretermit” the asylum application. Which it is doing in countless cases around the country. There’s been a little reporting on this; there needs to be a bunch more. I’m working a piece myself.

my biased 2 cents but at PIRC we repeatedly asked partners to say stuff publicly and most wouldn’t, despite private agreement. We’ve gone on the record with our position (like aclu or) but it’s hard to keep holding that line when no one will join us and the revoke folks bring such bad faith attacks

The Trump-Vance administration just used your taxes to pay for ICE agents to kill a 37-year-old nurse, who was only there because another ICE agent killed a 37-year-old mother of three, who was only there because ICE agents are kidnapping your neighbors

And all that said, I am taking endless inspiration from my friends & comrades in Minnesota and across the country. And knowing that there are more of us against this than for it. I truly believe that one day all these ICE jails (and all prisons) will be closed. I just hope we get there soon.

And as an organizer and person in close relationship with a lot of migrant families, it’s really hard to have to change the risk analysis and tell folks that actually yes, there’s a real chance their kids could end up detained too. It’s just dark.

And to think also that things also seem so much worse legally now than they were in 2019. The regulations then were pure evil - MPP, the safe third country transit ban, etc. But with immigration judges pretermitting (ie ending) most asylum cases now without a fair hearing, it’s hard to have hope.

This week I’ve been feeling more depressed than normal about immigration and I think it’s the marked increase in family detentions - here in Oregon last Fri, Liam Ramos in MN, now in Spokane. As someone who used to work at Dilley, I think there’s few institutions as depraved as family detention

No one should be shot by law enforcement. No one should fear leaving their home because ICE could snatch them at any moment. Yet this is the reality of the local asylum-seeking Venezuelan community and many others right now. ICE and CBP have no place in our communities and must be disbanded.

Due process means everyone gets a day in court. What we have seen from this administration is a reckless disregard for this cherished right, foundational to a functional state. When they murder people in the Caribbean or shoot them in US streets, they are acting as judge, jury and executioner.

what this should make clear to everyone in this country is that it does not matter who you are, there's no "it could never happen to me" you can be a white woman who drives around with stuffed animals in her car, and they will still kill you in cold blood and call you a domestic terrorist

Waking up to the news that the US has bombed Venezuela, kidnapped its president, and will now seek to decide its fate (i.e. “liberate” its natural resources). We don’t have money for basic infrastructure in our local communities, but we can always start new wars? Absolutely sickening.

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.
