They’re trying to run the Kilmar Abrego Garcia playbook with a five year old boy in a bunny hat because nobody can find peace if they embarrass the Trump administration publicly. Normal people didn’t like it with Garcia and they really aren’t going to like it for Liam.

🚨HOLY CRAP. The Trump admin just took a SLEDGEHAMMER to due process, largely eliminating the Board of Immigration Appeals process and MANDATING DISMISSAL of ALL appeals (which cost $1,000 thanks to OBBBA) filed after tomorrow unless a majority of the BIA votes to hear the case.

ATTENTION. We have created a T-shirt to celebrate our neighbors fighting back against fascists. All profits will go to the Hamline Midway Supply Hub, helping our neighbors sheltering at home. This is a pre-order. You have until Feb 20th to order this sexy beast. www.blackhartstp.com/new-products...

i really would like this anti-malinowski pac to stop bypassing my call filters multiple times a day my block list is filled with half of their numbers

As many of you know, Savannah Guthrie’s beloved mom, Nancy, has been abducted from her home. If you have any information about her whereabouts and/or who might have taken her, please use the contact information on the flyer on the left to contact the Pima County Sheriff’s Department.

Sean Grayson, the former sheriff’s deputy convicted of second-degree murder for the 2024 death of Sonya Massey — a Black mother of two who was experiencing a mental health crisis and was unarmed at the time of her fatal shooting — has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Here are some ways to help Minnesota with all the essential but less visible needs. But also, go get involved with your own community. Make new friends. Get those networks going. Learn what orgs in your city are already doing good work that needs support. Don't wait. www.standwithminnesota.com

Vibe Check today is a must listen. @theferocity.bsky.social said, "If you're not scared, then I'm scared of you." TOTALLY! We're in it now and we have to work together to get through it.

without a doubt in my mind, this is what happens:

It's really too bad the United States Congress no longer exists.

"Being here, in solidarity, is part of the repair work in my own soul," said Rev. Rob Schenck, an Evangelical minister who spent decades advancing Christian nationalist causes, as he marched against ICE in Minneapolis. "This is redemption."

to whoever sent the coating of snow over to the area of CO I'm in so I wouldn't miss out of on the storm in jersey while I'm traveling: you shouldn't have.

Roses are red, Potatoes have eyes,

the guardian is the newspaper of record in the US atp

Back in the early days of Trump 2 when ICE was first ramping up in LA they were approaching ERs and urgent cares with warrants signed by judges and someone on the legal team at one of the hospitals figured out that the judge name they had signed to the doc had died years ago. You can't retrain that

this one doesn't have alt but is fully described in the post text so you aren't missing anything if you can't see it 💜

Regarding Iceland and Greenland, I really think the DOJ should release the Epstein files, which they have been legally ordered to do.

New internal documents show ICE is planning a major expansion of its detention and transfer network centered in Minnesota with capacity across five Midwest states.

Colorado launches new system for reporting alleged misconduct by federal agents

things are bad! (gift link)

Missed this a few days ago: Two U.S. citizens grabbed by ICE say there were cells reserved for Americans. Also, they weren’t given medical attention or allowed to go to the bathroom. abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory...

Minnesota should get the Nobel peace prize.

damn what is wrong with me, i am having the hardest time concentrating on work, i lament as i compulsively refresh live feeds of unspeakable horrors

New at Can We Still Govern? "I am writing as an ordinary citizen of Minneapolis/St Paul...to share with the outside world what is really going on ─ the terror being inflicted upon a U.S. city and state by our federal government." Please read, share, help. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/dispatch-f...

Is there a bureau of exactly how much everyone should care about each thing and does the Atlantic run it and how does it measure that care and who exactly is the left anyway, and here we are in the US of A where the right regards human rights violations unto death with grisly enthusiasm, hello?

you’ve got to put your cellulose rich plant tissue upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus

anyway devils won

you know, i was waiting for a call from the infusion center for my appointment tomorrow because i can't remember if my treatment is at 2:30pm or 8:30am which is KINDA A BIG DEAL because i needed to like, actually confirm that appt w/ them or they give it away (and there's no online portal) lmao help

so we're all getting into meshtastic after this right

Informed delivery tells me that my mother, who has been dead for over 2 years, has a credit card solicitation coming in the mail from Capital One today. The kicker? The congrats sticker on the envelope. Yeah I think I’m done for today.

America is now at the heavily armed secret police doing warrantless door-to-door house raids in search of undesirable ethnicities and/or political dissenters stage. The difference from well known historical cases is down to scale.

CBS buried an interview with a 25 year police veteran who clearly explains why ICE’s killing of Renee Good in Minnesota was unlawful and unjustified—just like they did with CECOT. So I’m airing it. This is the danger of billionaire owned media and censorship under the Trump regime.

The average American gets more protein than they need because we are a country of meat eaters and meat is delicious. We do not need more protein. We need fiber. We're literally in a colorectal cancer crisis and while the reason is not fully understood what IS understood is fiber cuts your risk

Watching Trump's Air Force One presser from several hours ago, and I don't like the way Trump called Renee Good's wife a "friend," with emphasis, repeatedly It was extremely on purpose and a clear message for the LGBTQ+ community

I said this elsewhere, but I’ll repeat it here. If Americans saw this happening in another country they’d, rightly, decry the brutality of the authoritarian regime. And that would probably also be true of the MAGA folk who celebrate the brutality and lawlessness of ICE because, reasons.

Someone sent me this video of Trump’s goons in action today in the Twin Cities. The audio is disturbing.

The issue with ICE is not training, the issue with ICE is that it fundamentally should not exist. The violence is the purpose

I don’t want you to be right, but I have this same pit of my stomach feeling about this too

ICE at Midway Target and seem to possible be leaving. Lots of community members here

I was holding a bottle of Paul Newman salad dressing when my niece asked me who Paul Newman was. I told her he was an actor, basically the Brad Pitt of my mom's generation. Then she hit me with, "Who's Brad Pitt?" If anyone needs me, I'll be at the senior center eating applesauce.

Lula and Petro discussed the situation in Venezuela, expressing deep concern over the use of force against Venezuela in violation of int law, UN Charter, and national sovereignty. Both warned this sets a dangerous precedent for regional and global security.

The Islamic regime has opened fire on anti-regime protesters in Fardis, Iran. Dozens of people are reported to have been murdered. There’s a video. I won’t post it.

Timberwolves hold a moment of silence for Renee Nicole Good

In a normal administration this wouldn’t happen — but if it did happen you better believe the DNI would resign out of disgust.

A 38-year-old Russian journalist, identified as Yevgeny Safronov, was found dead after falling from his 7th-floor flat near Paris. Police are investigating, with “suicide considered”. He had fled Russia, faced threats, depression, and recent hacking by the Russian gov.
