When Mom asks me to pose for Christmas photos.

An armistice can take weeks to negotiate. A comprehensive peace treaty can take months. No one on Earth who knows a thing about history or diplomacy thought anything could be resolved in six hours. This will confirm for everyone the extreme incompetence and bad faith of the American regime.

Welp, gonna have to find someone else to vote for for governor. F Swalwell.

For what it's worth, I don't think the other Gulf states are going to accept Iranian control of Hormuz no matter what the US, especially since Iran has been war crime'ing them for a few weeks now. Iranian threats kind of ring hollow when they're already getting hit anyway.

Honestly my anxiety is less he's gonna follow through on this stupid fucking post but that the "last-second" (jerk off motion) diplomatic breakthrough will be credited to said threat so every GOP-led crisis from now on will include genocidal threats.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. This ends in arrests, prosecutions and lengthy prison sentences or it never, ever ends.

If you think 2025 was bad, 2026 is even worse. It doesn't matter what the budget was because OMB has found ways to not allow NSF and NIH spend their money.

Looking in the mirror for the morning pep talk

if you don't like the social issues conversations in star trek then you just don't like star trek

The correlation between being a Jan 6er and being a pedophile is incredible, it must be like several standard deviations outside what you’d expect just based on chance

This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US — and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.

my son is five, same age as Liam Ramos. you don't need to have a child the same age to be fucking horrified by the violence we are doing (and HAVE BEEN doing) upon immigrant children in this nation. but that he keeps asking for his spidey backpack is the kind of detail that rips my heart in two.

Finally got around to a bit of research I'd been meaning to explore, and: There is no documented instance of an ICE officer being identified and assaulted while off duty because he wasn't masked. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

Madel: "We have citizens because of the color of the skin are carrying papers. That is antithetical to everything our country is about. I want my daughters to know I stood up and said 'no.' It's far more important that I said 'no' to this than I become the Republican gubernatorial candidate."

Like many of you, I have seen this video, and I'm demanding answers. My team has reached out to ICE repeatedly and have yet to get clear answers. [1/2]

Retrain and reform I say while the head of the whole fucking deal says we're not telling you who murdered the nurse and is paid with your federal tax money

Minneapolis is winning. The tide is shifting. Can you feel it? It’s their Gettysburg. The first Minnesota is charging down the hill, bayonets drawn. This is their furthest advance and they will go no further. WE ARE GOING TO WIN

They’ve been murdering and raping people in concentration camps for months. THIRTY TWO PEOPLE (that we know of) have been executed in those camps. The complicity line was crossed and LONG time ago.

Alex Jeffrey Pretti was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital. His life, through his profession, was dedicated to serving his community and our country. As so many have now seen on video, his final act before he was killed by federal agents was doing everything in his power to protect his community.

Walz: Minnesota's justice system will have the last word on this. As I told the white house in no uncertain terms this morning, the federal government cannot be trusted to lead this investigation. The state will handle it. Period.

A man was choked so hard that his blood vessels burst in his eyelids and his death was ruled a homicide. This is a rogue agency. It needs to be torn down and replaced with a new federal agency that respects human and constitutional rights and has civil rights oversight.

Temerity of this account to post at all. This is entirely on you. Entirely. We knew ICE was gonna be the Gestapo and you passed the bill. Talk to your own caucus. You're on the hook. Not another cent for you ever.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

How many more Americans must be brutalized and murdered? How many more immigrants must be brutalized and murdered? How many more?

Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.

Jesus Christ. Multiple goons had a man on the ground but that wasn't enough brutality for them. One had to pull his gun and shoot someone who was prone on the sidewalk. They're going to tell us the agent feared for his life and was justified.

The video of the latest apparent ICE killing shows them repeatedly shooting someone after they had already been beaten and were being held down by multiple agents.

I've seen the video. It's an execution.

There is a video out this morning showing ICE agents wrestling a man onto the ground in Minneapolis and then shooting him. I counted twelve shots. It looks like two ICE agents fired at the man. He was wrestled to the ground and beaten by approximately 6 ICE agents before being shot.

Turn off auto play on your videos *right now* and if the video crosses your timeline you do not have to share it!!

There is video, do not seek it out, it clearly shows an execution.

Shooting someone being detained is an execution, that's exactly how today's ICE murder should be described.

If initial reports are true, they shot someone who they'd wrestled to the ground. Potentially an observer. These agents must be arrested and brought to justice.

They are targeting children because they are trying incite violence. I have talked to many journalists today, and they all made the same observation: Border Patrol and ICE have been rolling around with maximum aggression, lingering for ages as crowds, gather, seemingly trying to cause a riot.

Don't look away. Today's it's this child. How long until it's yours?

This picture making the rounds on reddit, Columbia Heights. I'm not OK.

'Retraining' I I say as a fucking idiot who hates my fellow Americans. How many people in MSP saying retrain? This is gonna be YOUR neighborhood soon as Chuck and Hakeem pass that shit on through

The Trump-Vance administration just used your taxes to pay for an ICE agent to do this to a 21-year-old kid, who was only protesting because another ICE agent killed a mother of three, who was only there because ICE agents are kidnapping your neighbors

I hear what you’re saying, Frey, you don’t have enough men to stop ICE. Sounds like a good reason to ask Walz to mobilize the National Guard.

the people of MN have been murdered, brutalized and kidnapped for weeks now and have remained *amazingly* peaceful in the face of it. lecturing citizens to not “take the bait” etc is pretty disrespectful after a point and avoids the real question: how long are they supposed to take this, undefended?

For people outside Minneapolis: North is the historically Black part of the city. It's been heavily disinvested from, gutted by the 2008 mortgage crisis, and got hit by a tornado which did damage you can still see from aerial photos. It's no mistake ICE is going after more vulnerable populations.

I’d argue that it is key. Stealing a citizen’s phone is neither necessary nor proper for ICE agents to conduct their federal responsibilities. It is plainly unlawful conduct that local prosecutors could investigate and charge without Supremacy Clause problems getting in the way and no justification.

I dont see how any of my fellow Jewish Americans can be more fearful of college students protesting about Palestine than they are of a militarized ICE stacked with avowed Hitler supporters

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland. Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

You lying piece of shit. I chaired the Minnesota DFL for all three of your runs here. I watched you lose. Three times. Minnesota never bought your con. And now, as Chair of the DNC, I’m looking forward to ending Trumpism for good in 2028 — not with lies, but with votes. Again.
