Willing to bet a very large amount that most of that 413% rise in “assaults” on ICE agents represent unarmed people attacking ICE fists with their faces and boots with their kidneys. Because these people are lying scum. https://lionsmane.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:s6j27rxb3ic2rxw73ixgqv2p&cid=bafkreich5uzytilup2u6v4gkv4zxfzrqbs47ypely2sdezzbm4glrbhyii
You know how occasionally you want to clean up but it’s overwhelming and you decide to just pick up a handful of things for a minute? In that spirit, search the word “retard” on Bluesky, block the first ten people who use it as an insult, and go about your business. Every bit helps.
Seems to me that if there’s a senile guy doing nothing in particular the usual way and a senile guy setting everything on fire, the fire guy is the one who should be the focus of media inquiry
The significance of this, of course, is that the administration claims it is deporting people to fight anti-Semitism but they are letting this bigoted turd in. RE:

If you cave and talk the cops out of fear or weakness, I have sympathy. If you talk at length to the cops because you know you are just the bro to stand up to tyranny, and you talking at length to the cops is fighting the power, you’re a dipshit.
This is getting a fair amount of scorn, and I’d say it deserves it. The hidden premise is that “corruption” requires the specific proof that the Supreme Court has decided (controversially) is required for certain very specific federal criminal statutes. /1 https://lionsmane.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:s6j27rxb3ic2rxw73ixgqv2p&cid=bafkreifsae5d6od5f4zndoiicmbxjzu7p2vgt7u5atzlf2fwqsxqpx537a

I am pretty fervent about some injustices but I will never be as incandescently outraged and committed to change as some white people are about the fact that the n-word lands differently depending on who uses it and the context
OK, I’m told the feds released Mayor Barka rather than holding him over the weekend on the pretext they couldn’t get him before a judge. I am pleasantly surprised, through I suspect the decision was made on a lower level and that the people who made it may suffer.
