- with so many killer journalists going independent, presumably we'll eventually get to a place where we see some sort of rebundling of newsletters into some sort of web presence, like some kind of bound digital paper of news a newspaper, if you will

Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.

- I cannot believe Chelsea won that game. Their first 0-2 comeback in the league since 1987. Absolute madness. Liam Rosenior seems to just enjoy making games harder for himself???

- Reposted by Mike MurphyHere's an opportunity to support the other journalist arrested today; Georgia Fort, who will have far fewer resources available to her than Don Lemon.
- Georgia Fort's is chilling, and it's being overshadowed by the equally chilling arrest of Don Lemon. A GoFundMe is being set up for Fort. In the meantime, you can support her work directly – without paying massive fundraising platform fees – through her website: www.georgiafort.com/support

- I worked with Dan at my first job, as an intern at Philly Weekly in 2008. I always thought he was such an awesome guy. Absolute tragedy

- how could this possibly be within the mandate of a customs enforcement agency ? what are we going to do about US citizens being put in this goon squad's database, and what use it has? with Noem demanding voter rolls the other day, it really feels like the US government is making a list of targets
- only two victims' names have broken into the mainstream, but we're not even a month into 2026 and ICE has already been involved in the deaths of at least nine people www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/1/...

- Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...
- Reposted by Mike MurphyAs tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today. ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.
- just completely devoid of reality
- I feel so hopeless as an American citizen right now
- is that not an ICE-issued sidearm ? Sig Sauer P320 ?
- I just watched. Even if he were, there were six ICE agents on top of him, beating him, before he was shot. If they feared for their and others' safety, why were they all on top of him?

- Reposted by Mike MurphyShe is aggressively trying to turn the wheel AWAY from the ICE agent. It is her very last action. They provoke her, surround her, then kill her in cold blood. I have barely slept since this happened and I don't think I'll ever stop being angry about this.
