This is a scandal for ICE, but also an indication of just how much they're scraping the bottom of the barrel. They've had multiple applicants with outstanding warrants for their own arrest walking in looking to play cop. That's apparently how dumb some of these goons are.

ICE is struggling to keep pace with vetting new hires during its historic recruitment push, so it's hiring officers before completing standard checks. The agency fired five people after belatedly finding that they had outstanding warrants for their arrest. www.reuters.com/world/ice-st...

HAPPENING NOW: Good morning from the federal courthouse in Nashville, Tennessee. A federal judge is set to preside over an evidentiary hearing on whether the United States government is vindictively prosecuting Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I'm here for @lawfaremedia.org. Follow along ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Here’s the thing and I’m gonna tell you: a lot of fans are why so many creators just don’t want to create anymore. And so many of them are oddly proud of their ability to bully. In order for cartoons as a concept to survive, they need to knock that shit off.

‘The Amazing Digital Circus’ creator Gooseworx has deactivated her Reddit account after facing backlash from fans upset about Pomni and Jax getting the spotlight. She also says she’s unsure whether she’ll return to the franchise in the future.

Your regular reminder that Palantir started out as a way to expose sex workers to police violence, then expanded to allow cops to spy on anyone they pointed at while barfing out the word "gang". Fascists *created* Palantir, but useful idiots approved of everything done to grow it.

Any Republican or Democrat who continues to support Palantir, takes money from them, or refuses to hold them accountable is not your friend and should not be supported.

Great to see @sulliview.bsky.social calling on @victorpickard.bsky.social and @parkermolloy.com for the crisis sweeping US media as corporate owners aligned with Trump sell out media independence & core 1st Amendment values to further their own interests.

Sharp media analysis from @sulliview.bsky.social — these underlying political-economic relationships explain so much of what’s driving today’s constant media failures.

I think it’s time for Democratic leaders to start saying “if you’re a pilot or ground crew involved in a deportation that was stayed by a judge, you’ll be held criminally liable for human trafficking.” Everyone involved in these flights should have that fear in the back of their minds.

Overnight, this probable ICE flight landed in Benin and is now returning to Senegal, likely for a crew layover.
