I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan. Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

Pritzker: "An American president should be standing up, calling for calm. That's not what this president ever does. In fact, he wants the temperature to go up. Why? Because what he's looking for is an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act, to bring actual troops into American cities."

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

After one year of Trump 2.0, the real question is can the US survive three more years of his presidency as a democracy or as a leading nation. Sadly, we all know it’s a rhetorical question to which the answer is NFW.

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status. Call the GI Bill Rights hotline: 1-877-447-4487

I think a good strategy for your non-leftist social media presence (ie everywhere but here) is to give this photo - the remains of Danish soldiers returning in coffins after being killed in America's war in Afghanistan - as wide an audience as possible. Remind people who we're betraying

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

This most difficult part of this exercise was only picking 25.

So, MAGA friends, you elected Trump to what? Bring down prices? Create jobs? End oil wars and foreign adventures? Raise our standing in the world? Kick you off healthcare? Arrest your neighbors? Steal from the US government? Build a ballroom? Nice job. Super duper smart. Definitely not deplorable.

Of all the people to attack, a sitting US Senator, husband of a congresswoman who survived being shot in the head, a former Naval aviator who flew 39 combat missions and a freaking actual honest to god astronaut who’s been to space four times! These are not bright guys.

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Cancel SPOTIFY. They are running ICE ads. F them. www.snopes.com/fact-check/s...

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

NEW WIRED led the way in reporting on Elon Musk's efforts to dismantle the US government. My colleagues and I spoke to 100s of employees at dozens of agencies to understand what happened. This is the definitive story of DOGE as told by those who experienced it www.wired.com/story/oral-h...

Motherfuckers. And I don't even like Comey.

You cannot trust information coming from Kash Patel's FBI. You cannot trust information coming from ICE. You cannot trust information coming the Trump administration. You cannot trust information coming from Republicans.

My main observation from the last few hours of monitoring US social media is that Democrats are universally denouncing political violence and calling for calm while MAGA are escalating language and openly lusting for retribution against broad categories of people they identity as their enemies.

Dear World, We felt we needed to say something while saying something is still allowed. We know many of you have lived under malevolent, unhinged dictators before, but this is new for us… johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dear-world...

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat. My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

Wow! France gifted her to us, and now they’ve captured what so many Americans are feeling on Independence Day. The values the Statue of Liberty stood for are no more. 📌 A stunning mural of the Statue of Liberty covering her face was unveiled in Roubaix, France, on July 3, 2025.

1/ For ProPublica’s “Life of the Mother” series, winner of the 2025 Pulitzer Prize for public service, we reported on five pregnant women who died after not receiving timely medical care in states with strict abortion bans. These are their stories 🧵

Donald Trump's first 100 days have been characterized by the most flagrant corruption imaginable. Today, I want to talk about 10 of the absolute worst examples. (Thread 🧵)

3/ MAGA doesn't want democracy because they want power forever. But also to get away with the thievery and corruption. A true democracy would hold Trump accountable for the mass scale corruption - the crypto coin, the insider trading, the Musk self dealing etc.

OK so the new identification requirements went into effect yesterday so let’s provide a quick overview. Press release (I guess we’re doing those again) linked before. TLDR version: things change for us but not much for you.

#ProudBlue #MomSky The immigration nightmares are getting worse by the day. This is a story about an Australian man who had a valid Visa & has been living here in the US for 5 years. He was returning from a memorial service for his sister & was arrested & deported.

🧵 We got a pretty nasty load of bad news yesterday on the future of Social Security. It's not hyperbole to say we've passed the point of no return on Trump/DOGE's efforts to kill the agency...

The last time at least one of the UConn men or women did not make the Final Four, George W. Bush was president.

America taking over Greenland is a foolish idea. America destroying its relationship with Canada is utter idiocy. America applying tariffs and engaging in trade wars with neighbors is economic nonsense. A lunatic is holding America hostage and his enablers are making fools of themselves.

Update 🧵: So we finally got official guidance on the whole “needing to prove identity in person” thing today. No, we do not need everybody that receives benefits to come to the office en masse. So let’s talk about who will have to come in person to the local office. 1/?

Senator Chris Murphy took to the Senate floor on Friday to break down the corruption flowing from the WH. He connects the dots, and makes a clear argument regarding who what where and why Shitler and Muskrat are destroying our govt!! This needs to be shared far and wide!! youtu.be/hycoCYenXls

To everyone nodding in agreement but refusing to take a stand, I say this: You are ignoring Martin Niemöller’s message. It is you that Martin Luther King Jr. was condemning. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-c...

“Real men don’t take away healthcare from others; especially children. They don’t use fellow human beings as props or exploit suffering for political expedience.”

Omg. In a shocking moment, Nancy Bolan, a fired USAID worker and tonight’s guest of Rep. Ritchie Torres — reveals that Donald Trump has pulled the U.S. from the global polio eradication initiative — which threatens its spread to the U.S. Every single American should see this.

If you didn’t watch the State of the Union last night, just watch this. Guaranteed—Trump’s followers ate it up, so be ready with the facts when it spreads. Rachel Maddow ran a clinic on Trump’s lies last night. 🧵

Next time Providence fans talk about Dan Hurley, remind them of that last timeout which allowed their two walk ons to get their moments of glory.

Dear President Zelensky, As it is likely that our paths will never cross in person, I could not let this day go by without trying to reach you here. I come to you humbly as an American citizen who is thoroughly and completely embarrassed of our leaders. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-preside...

We apologize to our Ukrainian supporters. We are embarrassed by how our president and vice president have behaved. We are fighting to redeem the soul of America. 🇺🇸

Make a huge mistake. Then make a false claim about how you fixed it. They did it for PEPFAR. Now Ebola. I follow this particular topic VERY closely, so here's what really happened and why this isn't true AT ALL...🧵

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!
