There are 3,800 kids in ICE custody.

הרפואה בתנועה האנטיפאשטיסטית "פה ושם" רציתי לבטא כמה השערות על התפקידים שמקצועת הרפואה משחקת במדינת ישראל כנגד בארה''ב - שני משטרים (היום) פאשטיסטים. הממסד הרפואי בארץ הוא יותר מאוחד, והרופאים חלק פנימי של מבנה של בריאות לאומית.

They don't get to break bones, smash windows, damage businesses, abandon vehicles, tear gas civilians, and murder people and then go whistling away like they have no responsibility for the damage.

Minneapolis should press its momentum and demand not only withdrawal but start talking about the need for immediate reparations, loudly, with the total certainty that only winners have. "You have wronged us terribly and must pay recompense" and let them argue the second part.

was that not already banned

I keep trying to interest providers in a billing strike (yes I know this isn't how organizing works, so sue me), but maybe we can get one started soon because all medical centers care about, you know the ones who don't oppose ICE, is money

This feels like the very least Democrats should be rallying around?

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “We need to rip ICE down to the studs and start over,” Senator Tina Smith of Minnesota writes. “In the wake of this catastrophe, there is no reason we can’t come up with a way of enforcing our laws that doesn’t trample on our values and our Constitution.”

where are the poll guys now? surely the massive show of popular support will force them to shift position on this, yes?

not even demands to get members of congress access to the concentration camps. not even demands for oversight, medical care, decent food. not even a little demand to give Liam his bunny hat and Spidey backpack back. just bodycams.

@aafp.org AFP Journal published a non-sense editorial around BP management in primary care. We wrote a letter to the editor that the journal opted not to publish. We are therefore publishing exclusively on Blue Sky. www.aafp.org/pubs/afp/iss...

Of the biggest scandals in US history just this week, I think I’d rank them: 1) Federal paramilitaries invade US city based on racist lies, murder US citizens 2) Slush fund for the president from stolen foreign resources held in Qatar 3) Whatever FBI and DNI are doing re: 2020 election in Georgia

If what ends up happening is MN officials agree to aggressive 287(g) or other cooperation agreements to stop the occupation, that is a terrible Faustian bargain that is closer to total loss than any kind of victory. It sets the precedent that the feds can force your city to play ball at gunpoint

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable. Biden himself said they were fabricated! www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

New: Washington Co. officials say there is nothing they can do to stop the federal government from building a sprawling immigration detention facility in Western Maryland. It could provide ICE with a long-desired foothold in the region to surge the area w/ arrests. www.thebanner.com/politics-pow...

good.

I will believe that ICE enforcement has changed on the ground when I stop getting daily notices that armed, masked goons are circling my kids’ schools and trying to sow fear in the parent patrols.

If you keep calling us names, we will kill more of you.

I literally tell patients this every time

You will be shocked to learn the NYT has unearthed evidence indicating that this nurse who worked at the VA and got summarily murdered in the street by agents of the state Was No Angel.

I forgot that a post like this would summon the antisemites *and* those who equate criticism of Israel with antisemitism. It's like the Batsignal but.... bad?

I usually don't release discarded draft versions but this feels like it might be useful today

Still 3,000 in Minneapolis Change in leadership Not in policy

I will live to see the end of the democratic party. I will live to see war tribunals of the GOP. I will live to see the abolishment of DHS, ICE, Police, and mass incarceration.

So, incredibly, the White House has chosen to escalate in blue Minnesota and retreat in Maine to protect a vulnerable GOP Senator. It's confirmation that Trump-Vance-Miller view ICE as a partisan govt-backed militia to attack blue America while propping up their regime. 1/

I'm happy to announce that I'm running to be Marie of Rumania.

I feel like this is not getting enough outrage from politicians. ICE has absolutely no function to detain US Citizens. The only narrow authority they've carved out under the Kavanaugh stops is presumption that they are not citizens. Dozens of people have been detained without any such pretense.

Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera. Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

Fuck him and his agency and his enablers. I hope he gets the notoriety he deserves in the most suitable time, place, and manner.

if ice shouldn't be in minnesota, presumably they shouldn't be in any other state, right?

No, Gaza and Palestine are not at the center of all oppression, but it is significant the cognitive dissonance that it illuminates. The liberal Jews who chafe at ICE but ignore/want to forget about Israeli state violence. The MAGA Jews who cheerfully embrace ICE and IDF both.

The immanent contradiction of dominance masculinity is that it both claims absolute authority and strength and also cannot countenance even the slightest challenge.

i just want to cry. i have literally just spent the last 6 hours responding to email after email of people begging for rent money or for me to point them in the direction of help, which does not exist. please @governorwalz.mn.gov. we need an eviction moratorium. there is no other solution.

When the fascists are defeated (!) there needs to be a multicity study on the public health harms done by their jackbooted thugs.

My patients are victims of ICE. I told a staffer at @alsobrooks.senate.gov's office that my patients are getting kidnapped, and she gave me a noncommittal "I'm sorry that's happening." The senator works for me, not for ICE. Take the right side.

ICE kidnapped 5 people from my community this morning. I don’t live in Minneapolis. I live in LA County. They’re still here and their still brutalizing.

#inclinic "They went up and down my block knocking on doors."

I called @vanhollen.senate.gov's office. "Due to a period of high call volumes, no one can take your call" - okay! So I left a message asking CVH to join the call to #AbolishICE.

You know who doesn’t get to retire? The people DHS has murdered.

maybe Obama could send a drone to take out the ICE people. *talmudic thumb motion* ayyy, they're citizens, well, didn't stop him before....

Impeach all the bastards dismantling human rights.

EVERYBODY SOMEONE IN @alsobrooks.senate.gov'S OFFICE picked up the phone!!11 The staffer said "She doesn't have a position on Abolish ICE, but she did say she wouldn't vote for DHS funding, and she has called for the impeachment of Kristi Noem."

oh they were placed on leave. how nice for them.

I called @repkweisimfume.bsky.social and left an urgent message that ICE is kidnapping people in Baltimore, including my patients, and when is he going to join the call to #AbolishICE? I asked for a callback. No they won't, I bet, but a guy can dream.

“I want the NIH to be a central driver of the MAHA agenda,” Bhattacharya said. “Essentially, it's kind of the research arm of MAHA.” www.dukechronicle.com/article/duke...

hey it's me the guy who redesigned the way a cereal box top closes. i took something that worked reasonably well and dared to dream 'what if we made it worse?' i am very smart.
