Judge O’Connor stated from the bench that he is giving maximum sentences to the Prairieland sentences because “the state wants to send a message to anyone who shares a similar ideology.”

Israel struck a residential area of Khorramabad in iran, causing blackouts. They are pulling children's bodies out of the rubble.

We have a verdict and we are heartbroken at the results. This is only the beginning. We will continue to fight the remaining charges until every defendant is home.

How the podcast started: "isn't it kinda sus that these protesters owned guns and wore all black?" How it ended: "this case demonstrates that it's no longer safe to go to a protest without concealing your identity—you should cover your face and tattoos, wear all black and carry ppe"

The DOJ Is Trying Protesters As Terrorists. Will They Win?

Can the DOJ raise the stakes for types of criminal and even non-criminal actions?

Even if you learn nothing else about the Prairieland case, please take note that the federal government is trying to build a terrorism case around an unarmed box of zines

Cops have testified that they believed Des’ box of zines contained some sort of IED, yet left it “unsurveilled” for 10 min. No explanation as to where the IED idea came from…

Lmao ICE got stomped out in Minneapolis and dropped loot

Screenshots of some of the documents found in looted ICE vehicles from one of the livestreams before it got turned "private" on YouTube (after the other one already was). Share widely and make sure the genie can't go back in the bottle.

It whips that not only is this guy absolutely going to get reinstated with back pay thanks to UNIONS but he’s already made nearly $1mil in a GFM which means many, many people are now incentivized to scream at Trump that he’s a pedophile

ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

After ICE agents shot people in Minneapolis tonight, a crowd faced them down and eventually chased them away, despite federal mercenaries and police shooting a tremendous amount of tear gas. ICE agents abandoned vehicles in the area, containing IDs, paperwork, license plates, and operational plans.

Another vehicle opened. Back was full of license plates, gear, various fed patches.

"Nuance" meaning "cops encountered a situation regular Americans deal with every single day and responded with murderous gunfire"

Three videos taken of the scene and reviewed by CNN, however, show nuance. What took place prior to the shooting remains unclear. | Analysis

THIS JUST HAPPENED: Brad Lander walked through the fire, got burned, and came back with a fucking gasoline can. ICE arrested him — now he’s escorting migrants right past them, again. Most politicians wouldn’t show up. He showed out.

The lesson people infuriatingly never seem to master is that there is no creating a police state just for other people. If you create a police state with no due process for immigrants or accused criminals, then that's the system you've created for yourself.

this guy hates this country, its laws and its traditions

Stephen Miller says they are “actively looking at” suspending the writ of habeas corpus, which is only allowed when the US has been invaded or during an insurrection, which would not allow people to challenge their incarceration in court if they are arrested and detained.

Most of the guys saying "it's a brutal time for young men, it's confusing" - are not young men - don't have kids, or - aren't close with their kids - are selling something It's pure projection. If you need help just say you're confused and ask for help. Go to therapy.

If like three years ago the pundit class and democratic politicians had held to this line we wouldn't be where we are today "I don't know what the big deal is."

This exchange is so very telling. Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this: "I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

Well that sure clears up the question of whether he was just sharing the meme from the neo-Nazis that purported to translate the tattoos or whether he's so senile he confused the added translation in the meme for part of the tattoos!

People, I think, do not realize how far right whole parts of this state are. Heck, even our governor is conducting a speed run toward incredibly reactionary stances right now
