I can’t remember a time in my life where I did not remember until Thursday night that the Super Bowl was Sunday

People who respond to what’s going on in Minneapolis with things like “well they can’t just not enforce the law..” My brother in geography, have you been to a dispensary in this country?

I think it's time. #soon

My little orange baby boy has been gone 10 months today

Previously: The expansion raises questions long-term about the size, strength, and investigative firepower of the state’s press corps—particularly at the Capitol. Is it in fact a good thing that Hearst now runs the papers servicing the four largest metros in Texas?

here's more on what a federal immigration raid looks like to a 2-year-old girl. the latest in our @ms.now series Cities Under Siege. reported with @kaybguerrero.bsky.social. www.ms.now/news/ice-chi...

EXCLUSIVE: on Jan 22 we rolled up on a raid happening in South Minneapolis. we had no idea who they were taking. turns out it was a *two year old girl* and her dad on the way back from buying fruit. he had no criminal record. this is their story. youtu.be/yaeXlxJOAXU?...

I know that there is SO MUCH right now. But the fact that ICE arrested a 2 yr old is and took them in to custody is getting lost

If you have a network with a decently large following, please consider adopting a Minneapolis family to pay their rent this month. This is being done in a decentralized fashion because a lot of the groups getting $ are having their Venmo frozen and it's hard to send mutual aid.

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

What we loved about Dan McQuade:

🚨 New: We built a visual tracker of the warehouses ICE is targeting across the US. Working off an idea from @actualkatherine.bsky.social, we’ve mapped active searches, canceled deals, and linked state property records. Explore the map here: tinyurl.com/ICEWarehouse...

Just saw Trump announced he is partnering with Proctor & Gamble to bring in the Charmin bear and his dad to retrain ICE in Minneapolis

I don’t want happiness. I want my federally guaranteed right to buy health insurance from the ACA marketplace, which has been denied to me by my state since 2012.

Has never read a non-self-selected academic text or paper on any humanities subject, maybe ever

I've reread this like 3 times. Freed herself from slavery by running away, *went back a week later bc the slaver was talking shit, set his house on fire, and then escaped again is absolutely incredible queen shit

“It’s difficult to imagine how this employee believed it was acceptable to reveal details of the West Wing Super Bowl party to Vance despite being sworn to secrecy,” said a source within the White House

It's wrong that they won't let me live in a 55+ community simply due to my age. They should let you in if you match the "general vibe"

Demanding body cams is demanding that they take more of our money and spend it on killing us.

New — I spoke to eight people who were present at the ICE protest on Saturday in Portland, Oregon when federal agents deployed tear gas and rubber bullets into a crowd of families, children, elderly and disabled people, and their pets. These are their stories:

Thank you @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social. Nothing will ever make this alright but the letter you wrote for Liam for when he gets older is a human thing to have done. Thank you

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"? Well, it happens they were doing exactly that. www.cbsnews.com/news/google-...

Heads up.

“Measles reported at the TX detention center where Liam was held.” I hope his family sues ICE for the highest possible damages plus $100 million bc you know they lie about the real amount

read online that someone set-up a premium rate phone number where callers get charged $3.99/ min. then they posted flyers in their neighborhood that said "call this number to report illegal aliens," but the number just puts them on hold with music. so far, they've made $17,000

1/4 Rep. Kelly Morrison, is a practicing M.D. Her description of conditions in the Whipple detention facility are horrifying. Here is a rough transcript of the video she just posted. @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social

If that’s what they’ve been using their obscene amounts of money for we definitely have a moral responsibility to seize it all, pay reparations to the victims & redistribute the rest to where it was supposed to go in the first place, the betterment of society.

JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate. Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards. With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43. Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

Certified Chris Hooks Classic, here. It is very detailed and humane in telling the story it tells, which concerns the damage that a small number of snitches, creeps, and dullards have done to this institution, but also about the long history and awful present of snitches/creeps/dullards doing that.

The public library is an essential component of a 21st-century left political project as an example of both what is already available to us and what can be improved upon in the future. The library is a public good, and it is free as a public service. I want more people to make the connections.

“The idea that federal officials would seize ballots in an attempt to prove fraud is especially dangerous in this context when we know … the Georgia 2020 election has been extensively counted, recounted and investigated,” one expert said. By @dougbockclark.bsky.social @jenafifield.bsky.social
