Tik tok pushed this young man to suicide. Can his family press criminal charges for manslaughter?

If you read only one story today, please make it this one. Paywall is lifted. So is the registration wall. By Olivia Carville for @bloomberg.com @businessweek.bsky.social

No more murders. Abolish ICE.

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com

A Police Executive Research Forum report from 2014 showed that CBP officers were purposely placing themselves in front of moving vehicles, and then shooting at them. This isn’t something that can be reformed. Abolish ICE. www.npr.org/sections/the...

Please take the time to examine which new plan might work for you! I saved $700 per month by taking the time to refile a new income-based repayment plan rather than let my loan management company auto-enroll me out of my SAVE plan.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@ocasio-cortez.house.gov

Because of Trump’s OBBBA, starting today all borrowers with a SAVE plan will have 90 days to transition to a new plan. If you do not manually switch to a new plan, you will be auto-enrolled into one, which may result in higher payments. Learn more at studentaid.gov/repayment-calculator/

Rough day today: I came outside and found Obie having a seizure. He’s never had one before, luckily it passed, and his blood panel came back normal. He hasn’t had another one, but I’ll be more vigilant from now on. I’m so grateful it wasn’t something worse, and he’s still my best baby boy.

Probably my first “favorite song,” (age 3?) and still in my top 10. 💗

Carole King@carolekingofficial.bsky.social

Remembering Eva Narcissus Boyd (June 29, 1943 – April 10, 2003), aka Little Eva, who was well known for her 1962 hit “The Loco-Motion”, written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King. The song topped the charts in 3 different decades: 1962 Little Eva, 1974 Grand Funk Railroad and 1988 Kylie Minogue.

Good news y’all someone FINALLY found The Magic Sword, it’s only a matter of time until we use it to defeat evil and restore our rights, dignity, and wellbeing ✨

In 2017, Criselda Vasquez painted this portrait of her parents and titled it "The New American Gothic." Last month, her father, the man in this portrait, was abducted by ICE after being in the US for 30+ years. The family is now struggling with bills. A GoFundMe has been started: gofund.me/456d8a193

Don Cheadle and Ayo Edebiri connected quickly as they prepared to make their Broadway debuts in “Proof,” a new revival directed by Thomas Kail of David Auburn’s Pulitzer- and Tony-winning play. Read our interview with them. nyti.ms/4w1FFgT

We call ourselves "intelligent," yet the humblest fungus can decompose waste and build soil, a tree can harness solar energy, and a wetland can purify water—all without toxic byproducts. True intelligence is learning from these systems, not bulldozing them.

Swalwell should resign, answer for his crimes in court, and leave public life. It’s that simple. We need good people in leadership, not bros who don’t understand consent.

In theater. So they think they’re at war.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state? HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

The killing of an American citizen by masked immigration enforcement agents is almost enough to make you forget Epstein or Venezuela or the fact that we just passed the anniversary of January 6. But you know, it's possible to remember all of it at once

What.

NEW: Plans for secret U.S. raid to capture Maduro leaked to the Washington Post and New York Times before it happened, but both decided not to publish to protect U.S. troops - Semafor

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Happy New Year— Invading another nation without provocation just because you want their oil is illegal. We are the bad guys. This is what Russia did to Ukraine and Putin convinced Trump he should do this. This is what their meetings were about: carving up the resources of the world.

Have this feeling Hookland is going to be a navigating star for me in the year ahead 🤍 thank you, Hookland.

The land has been year-walked. The future has been met in the lanes and ways. The cunning folk have conferred. On the doors of The Raven, The Woodwose's Crown and all the other pubs they use, the proclamation has gone up: 'This is the YEAR OF THE GREEN PATHS.'

TRUMP: and this Daniel, he went into the den? MAMDANI: The lion's den, yes TRUMP: surely they ate him MAMDANI: Here's the part where it gets a little Broadway: they didn't TRUMP: Unbelievable

This is it:

Ana Marie Cox@anamariecox.com

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

THIS IS WORTH KNOWING

Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.
