It’s a dark, frightening time in our country. Donald Trump must be impeached and removed from office, this administration must be held accountable, and Congress must not fund this government’s violence. We must resist this government like our lives depend on it because they do.

The same people who pushed for states to be open carry are the ones saying having a gun on you (if that's even true) is grounds to be murdered by state agents.

This isn't the Middle East. It isn't Ukraine. It's the United States of America #Trump #GOP #Fascism

Prep your emergency kit – including enough water, non-perishable food, and medication for every person and pet in your home for 3 to 5 days without any power. Check on your friends, neighbors, and loved ones. Starting Saturday, only get on the roads if necessary.

As we prepare for winter weather across the state this weekend: Follow your local media, the National Weather Service, and your local emergency management agency. Keep all of your electronic devices charged. Layer up and stay warm.

Pregnancy with chronic health conditions is risky. Trying to navigate pregnancy with multiple legislative restrictions on reproductive healthcare can be fatal. Must read investigation on this tragic case out of North Carolina By Lizzie Presser and Kavitha Surana www.propublica.org/article/nort...

Breaking news: The Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H. Powell, the central bank said, amid accusations of using the threat of prosecution to pressure the Fed.

The @hennepinatty.bsky.social and my office have an interest as state prosecutors in fairness and transparency. To the degree possible, we want to set forth a process about which fair-minded people can say when it’s over, “as good and just of a job that could be done was done."

Queer people being able to love freely and without fear makes life better for everyone, including straight people.

I have to say, as a man with two mothers, I find the derisive deployment of language like "lesbian" and "lover" by those on the far right who are trying to justify Renee Good's death particularly disgusting and dehumanizing. These women. They are wives. They are a family. That's it.

just out-of-control barbaric stuff www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

I’m most likely never going to write a memoir, so this is what it was like to photograph the storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6th. I got to The Ellipse a little bit after Trump’s speech started. I hadn’t planned on photographing the speech bc I wanted to be with the crowd.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured. Trump then pardoned the attackers. He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.

A message for you all to carry through the year

Our Solar System is orbiting the center of our Galaxy at about 220 km/s so in 2025 we collectively traveled something like 7 billion kilometers across the Milky Way. Once in a while, when you have a moment, it’s worthwhile to take a look around, see where you are, and appreciate how far you’ve come.

bye 2025👋

“many angry posts should have been naps or little packets of crackers” is deep wisdom and you don’t need to reproduce to embrace it!

What genuinely advances left politics? Organizing. Virtually everything else is noise.

"What Swift’s defenders didn’t realize was that they were pushing back against a false narrative that had been seeded and amplified by a small network of inauthentic social accounts. Worse, they were helping to disseminate those bad-faith allegations by earnestly engaging with them."

I think the people of North Carolina don't want a yes-man in the Senate.

This is straight-up murder

I get sad when I see sun dried tomatoes on examples of cringe "dated" food trends because it's got to be one of the best tomato innovations in tomato history.

Multiple sources have confirmed that ICE/Border Patrol is headed back to the Raleigh and Durham areas for undefined deportation actions. We've heard 50 ICE agents, charter flights and hotels booked for all of them in the Raleigh area. Let us know what you hear.

Women are dying because of the way anti-abortion laws were written. These deaths were predictable, predicted, and above and beyond any intrinsic trade off of preventing the termination of viable pregnancies in healthy women.

Dang - how bad was the Border Patrol invasion in North Carolina? None other than Thom Tillis himself is blasting DHS for gross overreach, and demanding lists of those detained, property damage caused by CBP agents, and their plan for restitution. www.charlotteobserver.com/news/politic...

If you’ve experienced civil rights violations related to the military or ICE presence in Charlotte, you can report it through our legal intake form. https://rebrand.ly/ncintake

Email just went out on my campus that the Immigration Goons ("federal immigration agents") will be in town (Raleigh). Inter alia, it says,"International students, faculty and staff should carry evidence of their immigration status with them at all times." The fuck kind of country are we living in?

Once again, I call on federal agents to target violent criminals, not neighbors walking down the street, going to church, or putting up Christmas decorations. Stop targeting people simply going about their lives because of the color of their skin, as you are doing in Charlotte.

Our office is aware of reports that the Border Patrol is bringing its operation to Raleigh.

Border Patrol and ICE are currently arresting and stealing our community members off the streets in Charlotte. Donald Trump is single-handedly responsible for this heinous actions. PLEASE report any activity you see. And know that our party stand with ALL immigrant communities.

I will continue to stay in touch with local and state officials to keep North Carolina safe.

Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

Working families are struggling and any deal that lets health care costs continue to skyrocket is unacceptable.

Holding hungry children, servicemembers, and air travelers hostage just to avoid keeping health care costs low is shameful.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
