I want to remind everyone who thinks ICE, CBP, and/or DHS can be “retrained” of this piece of White Nationalist deport-100-million-people propaganda tweeted out BY OFFICIAL DHS ITSELF over the holidays.

You get to 100 million people by expelling not just every immigrant but every single AMERICAN who isn’t white.

That’s how you get to 100 million, and that’s exactly what they meant.

They didn’t just post it; it was pinned to the top of their profile.

Call your Senators and tell them: ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH DHS. Put the actual needed services back under their old departments, where they were before the fascist Homeland Security horseshit from Joe Lieberman and Bush II.

End it all, end it now. Nothing less. If the government gets partially shut down for a while, so fucking be it.

Post by Homeland Security official on Elon Musk's Nazi platform X, with text "The peace of a nation no longer besieged by the third world." over beach art stolen from a Japanese artist and specifically used without permission, with further added text in the image reading "America After 100 Million Deportations."

ABOLISH. ICE.

Honest to shit the rate at which writing written as warning is turning into writing-as-instruction manual is really starting to fuck with my head right here:

Anthropic shredded millions of physical books to train its Claude AI model — and new documents suggest that it was well aware of just how bad it would look if anyone found out.

I literally read this short story in… I think it was Asimov’s? Could’ve been Analog but I think it was Asimov’s. Circa 1992 or something. Don’t remember much of anything about it other than they were training an AI by shredding and destroying library after library and it was a huge deal.

That was it, though. That was the entire plot.

Kinda wish these fuckers would, idk, watch The Black Hole and ride a giant spaceship into an event horizon right about now, don’t you?

i mean

that’d be good

The ICE fascist agent acknowledges her taking video is legal, doesn’t pretend she’s in the way, takes her photo and license plate information for their “nice little database” and declares her to be a domestic terrorist. Micah’s commentary is good, which is why I’m including it.

Klippenstein’s sources say the database is real, and that the fascist agent wasn’t supposed to talk about it. As some of us said, the “war on terror” was always going to be a war on Americans at home, and here it is.

Micah - @rincewind.runthe incredulous "this is bullshit, are you fucking kidding" tone here is a sign that you have turned someone into a lifelong radical against you and people like youthis is a stupid tactic used by stupid people who don't have any other ideas@ Ken Klippenstein @kenklippenstein.bsky.social - 3hICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."[still image of a masked ICE fascist standing in front of a sedan]9:46 AM - Jan 23, 2026 Some people can reply
Micah @rincewind.run - 2hone of the very most deeply wired of human instincts is "this is not fair" and that's why we try to build societies that are either fair or (more likely) lie to us about being fairwhat these people are doing is breaking that contract in favor of "fuck you I'm doing this because | can"shoving someone's face directly in unfairness and telling them the rules they have built their lives around don't matter because you're in charge and they aren't triggers fury on the lizard brain level and it's a huge contributor to how autocracies fail
