Last year, following Tim Sweeney’s full-throated endorsement of racist, conspiratorial tweets from Elon Musk, we implored the Epic Games CEO to log off. Now, in the somehow already worse year of 2026, we feel the need to urgently reiterate that message. At the tail end of last week, Sweeney decided to once again swing to the rescue of the richest man on the planet by quote-retweeting an article headlined “U.S. Senators Ask Apple and Google to Remove X and Grok Apps Over Sexualized Image Generation”... Sweeney, like every other tantrum-throwing tech baby irreparably brain-poisoned by a mixture of obscene wealth and an app where people are sometimes a little mean to them, needs to log off. He needed to do it yesterday – and also all the days before. But hey, the sun will rise again tomorrow. There is still hope, dim though it might be.

“Anastasio was tragically tortured, beaten, kicked, stomped, and killed by border agents,” Guerrero said. “Unfortunately, that was only the first part of the story — the second part was the cover-up.” HBO has begun airing a documentary about the 2010 death of Anastasio Hernández-Rojas, an undocumented Mexican immigrant who died while at the hands of Border Patrol agents at the San Ysidro Port of Entry. The film is called “Critical Incident: Death at the Border,” which details accounts of the Border Patrol’s involvement in Hernández’s death and the ensuing investigation, which has been described as a “cover up” by Andrea Guerrero, executive director of Alliance San Diego, a human rights advocacy group.

The federal government Friday agreed to pay $125,000 after a judge found a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent liable for civil assault for pointing a gun at a hotel maintenance man who came to the agent’s room to unclog a toilet. “This case makes clear that we can obtain civil accountability for the unlawful actions of rogue federal agents, even if it takes nearly six years,” said attorneys Michael Fuller and Nate Haberman, who filed the lawsuit. “We’re satisfied with the result.” The final payout for the 2020 encounter came a day after an unrelated shooting in Southeast Portland involving one or more U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers who wounded two people. In 2020, agent Joshua Jones was part of a Phoenix-based Border Patrol tactical unit sent to Portland to guard the federal courthouse and other federal buildings during nightly unrest downtown after the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Jones was staying in Room 428 at the Residence Inn by Marriott in North Portland and had called down to the front desk to report a malfunctioning toilet. Christopher Frison, a chief maintenance engineer at the hotel, arrived at Jones’ room about 5 p.m. on July 27, 2020, and knocked several times. Frison also called out “maintenance,” gave his name and waited, holding a plunger, he testified in court. That’s when “Jones opened the door ready to defend himself and his room,” according to U.S. District Judge Adrienne Nelson’s 22-page opinion.
