white women and queers - and people who love them - this is a good week to look GOP voters you know in the eye and ask them if they think it should be legally permissible for men to shoot you or your loved one in the head on the basis of being a “fucking bitch”

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

Bundt flan.

No book is going to turn kids into someone else. But books will regularly show kids other people like them and show those kids they're not alone. And they'll show kids other types of people who also exist. There is a large proportion of the population who are terrified of this.

"NYS Dept of Health & NYC Health Dept reject all recent and unilateral changes to the CDC immunization schedule." This letter just went all to all medical providers in NYC. It sends an unambiguous message: Do not change your prior immunization practices.

As it turns out, a lot of the "you can't make me wear a mask in your store" doctors are fine with "it's OK for masked ICE agents to shoot a mom in the face."

In response to ICE’s execution of Renee Nicole Good & violence against our communities, the 50501 Movement is demanding the immediate abolition of ICE & is joining its partners in the Disappeared in America Coalition to announce ICE OUT For Good, a nationwide mobilization scheduled for 1/10 & 1/11.

Never forget. 🇺🇸

Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

In case you were wondering, Jack Smith's testimony was the *opposite* of "total exoneration."

Those two relatively small blips of interest in “No Kings” several months apart are a graphical representation of the concept of controlled opposition.

“History teaches something brutal: removing a dictator is easy; building justice afterward is not. When legality is broken in the name of good, what almost always follows is not freedom but chaos, violence, and new victims. The law exists to remind us of this, even when it makes us uncomfortable.”

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”

They should also comment on what happened directly after Renee's killing. Bovino led his men to the local high school - and TEAR GASSED the kids at dismissal.

Silverio Villegas Gonzalez was shot & killed by ICE on Sept 12 ICE chased Jaime Alanis off the roof of a greenhouse; he broke his neck & died on July 12 ICE chased Roberto Carlos Montoya Valdez into traffic where he was hit & killed on Aug 14 Josué Castro Rivera was killed the same way on Oct 23

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

The ICE agent who murdered Renee Good must be prosecuted for murder. He enjoys no immunity from state murder charges. Then, Blue state governors must call up their National Guard to protect us from the armed ICE terrorists. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

We need to start holding up stuffed animals to the cowardly ICE thugs as a symbolic reminder of this and of how non-violent the alleged “radical left domestic terrorists” actually are at these community protection moments & protests.

Renee Good That was her name. She was murdered by masked thugs. They orphaned her six year old. www.startribune.com/she-was-an-a...

I will never forget the sounds of her wife wailing as she sits on the cold pavement holding their dog.

The murdered woman's glove compartment is filled with stuffed animals.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”

We cannot be more clear. Leave us the fuck alone.

Meanwhile near where they killed Renee Good ICE was terrorizing a high school — and now Minneapolis has canceled school for the week. None of this is about safety. A lawless regime with no guardrails.

This is the ninth shooting by ICE since September (I did not know that). All of them were into vehicles.

Renee Good. USAF widow. Mother of 3 children. Poet. Murdered by ICE

This is what they’re doing to our children now, after he incited all of this. Roosevelt high school today after ice murdered Renee Good

This would be a good moment for top editors in our major news organizations to call a meeting to announce to their staff that Trump has lost his mind and you don’t have to cover him like he’s normal anymore.

On only hours notice, hundreds of New Yorkers are gathering in Foley Square to protest the murder of Renee Nicole Good

ICE MURDERS GOOD, AMERICAN CITIZEN www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

Context: A decade ago, Border Patrol agents had to be ordered not to put themselves in front of moving vehicles as a pretext to use deadly force www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/new-dir...

Renee Nicole Good was murdered by ICE. She wasn’t just killed, she was murdered. The right was already trying to vilify her before we even knew her name. But I’m just going to say it… They’re going to have a much harder time doing that this time. She’s not Brown. She’s not Black. She’s white.

We have a lot more video and information on our visual archive of that day apps.npr.org/jan-6-archive/

I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day. Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me. 🧵

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history. Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

5 years ago, there was a bloody, lawless, and deadly attack on our nation’s Capitol. A group of criminal thugs broke out in riots and stormed our Capitol in an attempt to overturn the results of a free and fair election at the direction of the President of the United States.

For five years, Trump has whitewashed the Jan. 6 insurrection, culminating with him freeing roughly 1,500 criminals. But make no mistake: it was a devastating extremist attack on our republic—and it was led by him. The deep evidence, plus a thread on his lies 👉 www.motherjones.com/politics/202... 1x

The new Avatar movie looks terrible.

Must-read essay on the perils of AI. “What is life but what we choose, who we know, what we experience? Incoherent empty men want to sell me the chance to stop reading and writing and thinking, to stop caring for my kids or talking to my parents, to stop choosing what I do or knowing why I do it.”

There is no reasoning with fascism. It needs to be smashed. And it’s followers need to be mocked and laughed at for eternity.

This war and extra-judicial kidnapping is patently illegal and unconstitutional. Political leaders on both sides must condemn it. It’s not about whether Maduro is a tyrant but whether the US is still governed by laws and the Constitution. As if this morning, we are clearly not.
