The U.S. is a rogue state which should be sanctioned and condemned by the international community for our flagrant violations of international law and the peace of the world. We won't be, because imperialists tend to stick together. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/worl...

BREAKING: ICE agents in Minneapolis violently detained and arrested a U.S. citizen for one reason only: he refused to prove his citizenship. No crime. No warrant. No probable cause.

Yes, immigration agents not only took Arnoldo's phone, the 10th grader had to use Find My Phone to locate it — in a vending machine for used electronics, close to an ICE detention center. Read the full story here: www.propublica.org/article/vide...

Everyone who is complicit deserves this humiliation.

ICE agents are stalking the streets of Minneapolis demanding that random brown people provide proof of citizenship. We good with that, America? I thought we learned this lesson back in World War II, but I guess not.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just launched flash bang grenades at protesters in front of federal building in Minneapolis—causing massive explosions. "It's terrorizing, this isn't the America I served for 20 years in the U.S. Navy," tearful protester tells us. WE'RE LIVE NOW ⬇️

A teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present. He was bundled into the van & taken away. Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?” I don’t know how America comes back from all this.

We don't come back from this because there is no longer an America. This country is the chicken's corpse running around the barnyard while the head is back on the cutting block. And the reason why we can't come back is because the structure is collapsed and the foundation is rotten.

House Speaker Mike Johnson apparently doesn’t understand how our justice system works. He said if Fed Chair Jerome Powell is innocent, “then he can prove that.” No, Mikey, he doesn’t need to prove he’s innocent. His accusers need to prove he’s guilty.

Frost: People should know that them cutting your healthcare, them cutting nutritional assistance, SNAP benefits, all this stuff—they're cutting that from working people so they can give ICE money to go terrorize our communities.

Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

I often find many of the accusations about his speech, mannerisms, gait, etc a bit hyperbolic. Often if you look at more than just a clip, they make more sense in context (albeit still ridiculous). But this one seems rather egregious. He definitely seems altered in some manner

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

Yeah, antisemitism. It's a thing. And it's a bigger thing than even people willing to admit it seem to want to believe.

Immigration agents have shot at least nine people since September. All of them have been in cars.

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show. She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms. (Published June 2025)

A federal judge has blocked Trump from enforcing key vote-by-mail-related executive orders in Washington and Oregon. We know how to run free, fair, honest elections here in the Northwest. Trump knows that and it makes him afraid of the storm that's coming to take him down. 💙 the PNW! (you too, CA)

This is an "administrative warrant". It's not signed by a judge and is therefore unlawful. ICE agents carry stacks of these around in their cars and just fill them out on the fly. Make sure everyone knows what this looks like, as they have already started going door-to-door in some neighborhoods.

Thank goodness man cereal is here, cereal was getting way too feminine

Fred Flintstone is the only straight cereal mascot. Barney Rubble is bi.

DOJ is still violating the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

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.

AOC: What we saw today was a horrific act of violence. What we have seen and are now seeing is that ICE has not just become an anti-immigrant force—it is becoming an anti-civilian, paramilitary organization. People are being taken off the streets for exercising their free speech rights.

Kristi Noem must resign today. Her time as Secretary has been a complete moral failure and a public safety disaster. ICE under her leadership has repeatedly ignored our laws, terrorized communities, and made America less safe. She must resign.

I'm up to FOUR OTHER alleged vehicle ramming incidents that led to shootings by ICE agents: • 8/16/2025 San Bernadino • 10/5/2025 Chicago • 10/21/2025 Los Angeles • 12/24/2025 Maryland Two of these claims fell apart and charges were dismissed. Another had "conflicting accounts".

If Renee Good is a "a domestic terrorist" according to Kristi Noem it means the label is meaningless and will be used by the Trump Administration to murder anyone it wants. From Venezuelan fishermen to anti Trump protestors in the No Kings Rally. Eyes wide open, friends.

Melt, and no more be seen

A 1985 Supreme Court ruling says that police can't open fire on someone who is fleeing unless they pose a serious danger to the officer or others. But that was authored by activist judges appointed by woke presidents like Nixon and Reagan. - Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, Barrett

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.

Many of us have warned for the past year that Trump's war on immigrants & the radicalization of ICE will eventually be turned against white Americans & citizens. When it was Palestinians, activists, undocumented, eh, the country said, "Eh." Well, here we are—a cold-blooded murder of a citizen.

This morning's best #InternationalUnsolicitedDuckPicDay 🪶

In less than a year, #DonaldTrump has destroyed vital government services, lost our leadership in science, tanked the economy, profited corruptly in his constitutional role, made us a faithless ally, and now a pariah state that mounts unprovoked attacks on another nation's civilian capital.

These shitheels are making money on these war crimes.

Remember how appalled we all were in 2022 when Russia completely unprovoked attacked Ukraine? That is what we’re doing tonight with Venezuela. We are the bad guys here. Everyone who supports this is supporting unprovoked murder. Fuck every last one of them

I don't think you non-science people realize what it takes to get a grant funded by NIH. Started experiments in Sept 2021 to generate 3 new mouse mutants to model human disease. Prelim dara shows they have relevant disease phenotypes worthy of study. Need a small grant first to characterize /1

I am sick to my stomach. And I hate that this feeling comes at least once a week from the news.

Fuck.

In the private sector, disparaging one's workers, getting rid of the most experienced, and undermining the ability to collect revenue would constitute a huge management fail. Yet that's what Russell Vought, may he rot in hell, has done to our government and its dedicated, service-oriented workers.

Bragging that you just passed your 3rd dementia test is a great way of telling us they've made you take 3 dementia tests
