The husband also used Roundup for the 25 yrs at this Farm & has Prostate Cancer. Paraquat took everything above the collar & Roundup (which binds with moisture)all below the belt. I hope they choke on any sandwhich they eat. He is far from the only damn one...

SCOTUS listen up- My husband has Parkinsons due to intense exposure to Paraquat as a farm hand. Loading chemical in totes, mixing it in water, exposed to spary in several ways. A man whose memory was expansive in science has shrunk by 50% in that peramiter & falls down consistently. FUCK YOU.

Democratic politicians facing frivolous criminal investigations from Trump: Kat Abughazaleh Elissa Slotkin Jason Crow Tim Walz Jacob Frey Letitia James Lisa Cook Mark Kelly Eric Swalwell Adam Schiff

Literally begging for help to save civilian lives from being murdered while Trump blames Ukraine, threatens Greenland, plays golf for the next 4 days, and Witkoff and Kushner negotiate deals with Putin.

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

DOJ is out of control. The crime of impeding federal agents requires physical force. Speaking out against the way ICE is being deployed is not a crime. www.cbsnews.com/news/justice...

damn -- CNN put together a video of Kristi Noem claiming ICE officers are "highly trained and skilled" and "gifted" alongside to a clip of them beating someone nearly to death in Minneapolis

The 6-month-old that DHS is tweeting about here lived in the neighborhood and the baby’s father was just trying to evacuate his family after federal agents had shot someone.

NEW: Jonathan Ross, the ICE thug who murdered Renee Good, was NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL according to police reports. He was taken to the Federal Building. He was NOT INJURED. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

"He said he saw guards choking Lunas Campos and heard Lunas Campos repeatedly saying, 'No puedo respirar' — Spanish for 'I can’t breathe'..." www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

A cowardly move from a mediocre institution www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/u...

i’ll say it again, jennings is a contemptible liar and it is a disgrace that CNN puts him on television every night to spread bullshit

(🚨) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: Republican-Appointed Federal Judge Rules That Kristi Noem and Marco Rubio "Illegally Conspired" to Arrest and Cage People Exercising Their First Amendment Rights—and Notes Rubio As Highest-Ranking U.S. Official Ever to Run Such a Conspiracy

At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely. That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.

If Travis Kelce gave me one of his SuperBowl rings, it doesn’t mean I won the SuperBowl. Same goes if someone gives you their Nobel Peace Prize or Oscar.

How long before Trump starts wearing Machado's Nobel Peace Prize medal around his neck? We all know that's coming. The medal is 18k gold. The only real gold Trump has ever held.

Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms. www.reuters.com/world/us/fiv...

If you're a Republican, fraud and corruption is encouraged. That's the game.

Trump is selling seized Venezuelan oil and putting the cash in a bank account in Qatar. Nothing to see here. www.semafor.com/article/01/1...

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

History has shown that autocrats wreck economies by destroying independent economic policymaking, writes @ansleyskipper.bsky.social. Now, in going after Fed chair Jerome Powell, Trump threatens to take the U.S. down that same road to ruin. https://www.ifyoucankeepit.org/p/we-cant-afford-autocracy

These are absolutely monstrous people "Mr. Thompson’s resignation came after senior DOJ officials pressed for a criminal investigation into the actions of the widow of Renee Nicole Good, the Minneapolis woman killed by an ICE agent"

While we’re waiting for Republicans to unveil their healthcare plan, remember this: Health insurance didn’t start as a corporate cash grab. Before the ‘70s, giants like Blue Cross & Blue Shield were nonprofits. Then the 1973 HMO Act, signed by President Nixon, turbocharged for-profit healthcare 1/2

“You enter legally, and suddenly, because of someone else’s whim, you’re illegal. It doesn’t make sense.” With the Trump administration ending temporary protected status for thousands of Somalis, go inside the largest delegalization campaign in modern US history.

We must stress: The only violence is coming from CBP/ICE. They are rioting in the face of sustained nonviolent protests by thousands of Americans across the country. They are today’s Alabama State Troopers at the Selma bridge. They are Bull Connor’s police with firehoses in Birmingham.

Breaking NYT: The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter. The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status. That is a war crime called "perfidy."
