It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers. Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

the Iran protests may not have reached 2022 levels yet but it's clear something major is happening. combined with credible threats of force from the outside it's a serious crisis for the government. but no one knows how this will unfold, especially in such unpredictable times.

Soccer Moms "person" the barricades? Non-Americans may miss the optics here. This is a photo of a wealthy neighborhood - every city in the USA is ringed by one or two. The people who live in places like this wield serious power, gag at Noem's style, and are now enraged. Many used to vote Republican.

Last night we saw Minnesota meet this moment. We saw a beautiful vigil. We saw thousands of Minnesotans demonstrate peacefully. Let’s keep it that way - stay peaceful, stay safe.

Really is

This seems significant: not a FORMER DHS official, but a SENIOR (current) one saying the officer who fired acted counter to training. This is not an admin that admits mistakes. And they are hanging this guy out to dry on Day One. I think they know this is bad. Really bad.

Tim Walz: "Our administration is going to stop at nothing to seek accountability and justice. The state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is working on the investigation."

HuffPost has obtained a video of a physician trying to give medical care to the woman shot and killed by ICE goons today, and not being allowed to go near her. The ICE agents claim there are medics on site, but witnesses scream that there are no medics present

The ICE Agent walking on the Left is the guy Trump claims is RECOVERING IN THE HOSPITAL. This is AFTER he Murdered 37 yr-old Renee Nicole Good

Google the video & see for yourself. This is not law enforcement. This is murder. Sickening.

During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

The United States did not top the list of most narcissistic nations. Germany was the most narcissistic, followed by Iraq, China, Nepal & South Korea. The least narcissistic countries on the list were Serbia, Ireland, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands & Denmark.

It has become received wisdom in Brussels and Washington that there is a new “euro-sclerosis”: that the EU economy is lagging the US This view is wrong A little primer on the measurement of productivity – and why reports of the economic death of Europe are greatly exaggerated🧵

Core EU has 290 million inhabitants: it's a bit smaller than the US (340m) but not much so The key fact is that productivity in this core EU is essentially the same as in the US: €60 per hour (corrected for price differences) using the most recent WID.world data prod.wid.world/www-site/upl...

The best Rob Reiner meme I've seen ... sigh

ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl. Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist. They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed. Another horrific story. More details below.

I had somehow not seen this until today and my god, they did the work.

Such smart birds.

What they are doing to Francesca Albanese is criminal. Her advocacy for Palestine 🇵🇸 is in a professional capacity for the United Nations 🇺🇳 and 🇺🇸 is trying to destroy here. This is abhorrent.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

DOD contractors “mistakenly” landed on a Mexican beach, declared it US property and planted “restricted area” DOD signs, triggering a tense confrontation with armed Mexican forces. Mexico removed the signs, insisting the area is theirs. Yet another example of total incompetence.
