@cdarwin@c.imThe chief federal judge in Minnesota ordered the head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement to appear in court on Friday
to explain why he should not be held in contempt

The order by Judge Patrick J. Schiltz
— which he acknowledged was “an extraordinary step”
— adds to the administration’s legal fights
while it also faces public and political pressure over the aggressive tactics of its agents,

@AimeeMaroux@mastodon.socialOne of the great things about the city of #Hamburg, Germany, is that there is always something interesting going on, at least when I'm visiting 🥰
Tonight at 5:30pm there is a protest against sexualised violence at the town hall and a newcomer film festival at Zeise Kinos. I want to try and do both but I'll likely just catch the tail-end of the film festival if I go to the protest.…

@cdarwin@c.imKoons’s T-shirt featured half a rainbow pie, with the slogan:
“Equal rights for others does not mean fewer rights for you. It’s not pie.”
She said after some discussion,
the RCMP respectfully asked her to leave the town hall,
as well as two other women at the event that were also wearing T-shirts with slogans that some at the event didn’t like.
“I found it alarming,” Koons said.

The number of buzz words omg. I've already filled my Bullshit Bingo card several times over.

Just tell me if I have to prepare for slapping a differnet logo on everything.
@scott@carfree.citySpeaking of embarrassing SF politicians, I haven't watched this yet but Lurie-appointed Supervisor Alan Wong reportedly did not come off well here.
(He said he would talk to everyone about Sunset Dunes park/former Great Highway before making a decision, and agreed to this town hall with Sunset Dunes supporters, but then preempted it by announcing he'd try to turn the park back into a highway)
@cdarwin@c.imA Swiss canton has suspended its pilot of electronic voting after failing to count 2,048 votes cast in national referendums held on March 8.
Basel-Stadt announced the problem with its e-voting pilot, open to about 10,300 locals living abroad and 30 people with disabilities, last Friday afternoon.
It encouraged participants to deliver a paper vote to the town hall or use a polling station but admitted this would not be possible for many.
By the close of polling on Sunday, its …

@cdarwin@c.imIt’s Ilhan. Last night, I was attacked at a town hall meeting.
A man rushed up to me and sprayed me with an unknown substance from a syringe. Thankfully, my security team acted quickly to take him down.
I’m okay. I’m not going to be intimidated from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win.
But this shows something important. Just a few days ago, I texted you to explain that Trump’s constant racist, hateful attacks and the far-right threats that they bring require me to hire …
