@thecurrent.org trying to break me this morning by playing “Everybody Hurts” before I’ve even had my coffee

i hate living in the second act of CABARET. i miss living in the first act of CABARET

Please share. 💔

People already working hard to prove how perfect Alex Pretti was. To show he didn't "deserve" to be killed. But it's a trap folks. You're only feeding into a dynamic where people who are considered lesser get no protection. You don't have to be an Alex Pretti to deserve to live.

Walz criticized the narrative put out by the federal government about the shooting. “Thank God we have video,” Walz said. “Because according to DHS, these seven heroic guys took an onslaught of a battalion against them, or something.”

“Dearly beloved We are gathered here today to get through this thing called life…”

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good? BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

Personal musings from one of my co-workers that sums up my Minnesota experience right now.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

1/ The @startribune.com has put its live blog outside the paywall www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi... but here’s how you can support them even if you don’t subscribe …

Renee Good was found with gunshot wounds to the chest, arm and head after a federal immigration officer shot her the morning of Jan. 7, according to the Minneapolis Fire Department’s incident report.

How you can tell the protesters aren’t paid agitators: Watch the videos. It’s the accents. Those accents have a favorite Zorbaz. Those accents can tell you EXACTLY where they were on 10/31/91. Those accents have thrown a bra off the SkyGlider. Those accents get emotional about Randy Moss.

this is Minnesotan for "I am mad enough to bite through rebar"

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

New Star Wars movie idea: 12 Angry Men, but it's all Wookies and no subtitles.

“The murdering will continue until you stop calling us murderers.”

Im my ALL IN THE FAMILY rewatch, and it’s nuts how much this show remains relevant. Archie Bunker operates on fear. It’s his default setting. Fear that he’s not important, that he won’t get what he wants, that other people are having a better life than him. Carroll O’Connor was a brilliant actor.

Over the last few days, I've been working on this project with a team of very talented people to put these videos side by side and provide a clearer picture of what happened Tuesday. No spin. Just what you can see and hear.

Fight For Good.

The agent, Jonathan Ross, was dragged by a vehicle and injured during a June operation in the Twin Cities, court records show.

When I said I wanted to live in Star Wars as a kid I did not mean in the cursed monkey paw way. I just wanted a lightsaber.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

School has been cancelled tomorrow and Friday across the city of Minneapolis, because our federal government has made it unsafe for children here.

Mac Tonight will return in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY.

My very smart colleagues are doing excellent coverage of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis today. I would urge you to follow along with local sources familiar with the area and the residents here.

These are the people we pay our tax dollars to.

The White House rolled out a new website with a full-blown recast of the historical record of January 6, 2021, hailing the pro-Trump mob who stormed the US Capitol five years ago as “peaceful protesters” who were provoked by law enforcement. https://cnn.it/49Gy9Pj

WB: What do you have planned for Batman 2? Tim Burton: We open on a newborn baby boy WB: Aww TB: No. The baby is ugly. He kills and eats a house cat while it's still alive. His parents try to kill him in his crib, but to Gotham's woe, they fail WB: ... TB: Also it's a Christmas movie

there's a horror movie in this somewhere ...

I mean yeah it’s an authoritarian takeover but can we take some comfort in the fact that the people doing it are INSANELY stupid?

Current issue of @theonion.com nails it again.

vanity fair photographer christopher anderson posts this story on his instagram, suggesting he intentionally posed stephen miller underneath a painting of native americans

Rename it whatever you want. I still call it the Sears Tower.

I’m so glad I didn’t watch that. What a waste of time.

here's a gift link to the whole Christopher Anderson interview, which is worth reading wapo.st/49ixYtq

The ACLU of Minnesota and its pro bono partners filed a lawsuit Wednesday against ICE on behalf of six community members, claiming their constitutional rights were violated by ICE and federal agents. Video: Chris Magan and Jerry Holt/The Minnesota Star Tribune.

The run that Rob Reiner went on between 1984 and 1992 is one of the most amazing hot streaks any director has ever had. Legendary stuff

I can’t get over how Barbie succeeded because it offered tangible ways for women and girls to celebrate each other (and dress up and go to the movies together) but studios thought it worked because it’s about toys so now they’re making like Bananagrams the movie
