Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 13/01/2026All in a city that isn't even half a million residents. Kinda bonkers that like 1 out of 215 persons in Minneapolis now are potentially ICE/DHS agents. 020
Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 13/01/2026I know there is a long list of worse things by this Administration, but this is probably the first Administration that has cheered on job *losses* among foreign-born workers. And note the data doesn't differentiate between immigration status. So they are cheering losses among legal immigrants. 000

Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 10/01/2026Who wore it better? Photo on the left if you have never seen it is Dmitry Markov's iconic photo of a masked Russian police officer during Markov's arrest booking. Photo on the right is an ICE officer outside Jonathan Ross' house in Minnesota. Ross is the ICE officer who shot Renee Good. 030
Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Another pediatric death was reported for last year's flu season. Bringing the total pediatric flu deaths to 289. That makes 2024-2025 the deadliest flu season for children since tracking began in 2004. Surpassing even the 288 pediatric deaths during the 2009 Swine Flu pandemic. 110
Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 03/01/2026As a perfect example of how much this second term Trump Administration doesn't give a shit. On top was the SCIF at Mar-a-Lago during the 2017 Syrian strikes. And the bottom is the photo from Mar-a-Lago during the Venezuela raid where they just looked like they put up some drapes in the dining room 172
Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 31/12/2025Came across this Lipton Matthews dude. Apparently Tyler Cowen awarded him an Emergent Ventures grant in 2021. Here is the same individual interviewing a Holocaust denier for an explicitly white nationalist magazine a few months before the Emergent Ventures grant. 001

Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 14/12/2025May I suggest this as the strategy for when the Democrats retake government if Trump intends to preemptively pardon all his goons for their criminal conduct. We are just deporting Stephen Miller to a safe third country (cannibal island). 031
Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 06/12/2025Flash forward: JUSTICE ALITO, with whom JUSTICE THOMAS joins dissenting. "we must consult the long-recognized distinctions between those truly within its allegiance and those who stand apart from it such as the savage Injun, the exotic Orientals, and various mulatto and quadroon coloreds" 020

Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Michelle Goldberg on Olivia Nuzzi and RFK: "An odd thing about the book — one that gives it an aloof, affectless quality — is that Nuzzi doesn’t seem to recognize that her collaboration with Kennedy was a grave professional betrayal." 100

Michael Jaehnig @mikejaehnig.bsky.social · 24/10/2025In this sleepy Argentinian diner, it was tradition: the old-timers would gather for coffee, strudel, and fond memories of 1943. Now, critics say the woke mob is trying to erase their heritage - and their SS insignia. 020
