For this goodnight post, we honor Dr. Angella D. Ferguson (1925–2026), pediatrician and sickle cell disease pioneer. As a Black woman physician when few were allowed in the room, she chose a disease others ignored, built evidence where little existed, and changed pediatric care forever. 🌙

"There isn't a single criminal at the Dilley detention center. And I know that because ICE told me that.": Rep. Joaquin Castro, who visited 5-year-old Liam and his father in the Dilley detention facility yesterday.

People who “don’t do”politics: Can you feel politics doing you yet?

It is literally impossible to dox federal workers for the same reason it's not doxxing when McDonalds management asks workers to wear name tags Every single person in the United States government works for us. We are management and we need to know who our employees are

"Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety". Franklin The voices of the past warned us and showed us a way forward. Will we ever listen?

As a veteran who’s deployed, I know exactly what “in theater” means. It’s a military term for operations in foreign countries. Using it to describe Minneapolis isn’t accidental…and I can’t overemphasize how dangerous that language shift is.

Ashland, Virginia: "Despite widespread hazardous road conditions and icy weather from the recent winter storm, more than a thousand residents from across Greater Richmond made their opposition clear..." www.vpm.org/news/2026-01...

#Measles has a basic #reproduction #number (R₀) estimated to be between 12 and 18, meaning that, in a completely susceptible population, one infected person can transmit the virus to 12 to 18 others on average. This high R₀ makes measles one of the most contagious diseases known. #science

Please read this thread. Please.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio. Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3. Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

The Boss releases protest song he wrote over the weekend. www.npr.org/2026/01/28/n...

Haitians in Springfield, Ohio lose temporary protected status on February 3rd. There will very likely be a major ICE incursion the next day. Haitians in Springfield were the targets of Vance’s lying during the campaign. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/01/28/t...

Singer says song is in response to ‘state terror’ visiting city, painting image of unrest due to ‘King Trump’s private army’

A PROTEST SONG! Folks, do what you can. Sing your protest. Speak your protest. Join neighbors in protest. Blow whistles in protest. Record evidence in protest. Offer late nite insight & solidarity in protest (🙃) Do what you can. It all matters.

Spain will grant legal status to as many as half a million undocumented migrants. Those eligible will need to prove they were in the country before Dec 31 '25, have no criminal record, and have 5 months of uninterrupted residence.

“If you raise your voice I’ll erase your voice” said an ice agent. Insane

UN Geneva on Holocaust Remembrance Day: "The genocide started with apathy & silence in the face of injustice, and with the corrosive dehumanization of the other. Today and always, we need to remember this. And we must stand up for our shared humanity."

Cognitive dissonance is a bitch.

"The US cites the ‘wisdom’ of historical immigration policy. But nation states in the Americas have spent more time with open borders than closed," writes Daniel Mendiola.

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

BREAKING: DHS says federal agents had body cameras on during the shooting of Alex Pretti. RELEASE THEM NOW ALONG WITH THE AGENTS NAMES. Who agrees?

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

An unarmed American was shot ten times while he was being easily subdued by over half a dozen men. I hope every American sits with it until it truly sinks in.

Masked men with the authority of the Federal Government disarmed an American citizen and shot him in the back of the head. That happened.

Yes. Protesting can include screaming.

I have never seen a case where state law enforcement had to file a lawsuit to obtain evidence of a police shooting within its jurisdiction. Until now. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

In the early 1930s the SA was roughing people up, creating chaos in neighborhoods, seeking to terrorize with the occasional killing. By the late 1930s it had been supplanted by the SS, which was much better trained.

This statement from an eyewitness to the Minnesota murder of Mr. Pretti is gut wrenching, from beginning to end. Please disseminate it as you see fit. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Everything you need to know about ICE is here: "I asked the ICE agents if the victim had a pulse, and they said they did not know." Instead they were standing around counting bullet wounds. This is from a medical eyewitness: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The sheer cowardice it takes to fire bullet upon bullet into a man for helping a woman stand. They saw in him what they will never have — courage, compassion, basic human kindness. They saw in him the emptiness of their own souls. “Just like Call of Duty.” My god.

I cannot imagine the devastation this family is experiencing today. This statement is powerful and must be read.

The family of Alex Pretti, a Minneapolis man shot and killed by federal immigration agents Saturday morning, released a statement to several media outlets. It begins: "We are heartbroken but also very angry."

Our country was founded on resistance to a tyrant.

Share this widely.

Imagine what ICE is doing to the people in detention centers if they're killing white Americans in the streets.

They are going down the list of amendments now. And the entire ICE action is the most obvious violation of the Fourth Amendment this country has ever seen.

The pigeon toes. The earnest crossing guard hand. The way his other arm, holding the camera, is tucked into his side. The way he stands before the threat, looking over his shoulder at the wellbeing of another. The brown, the beige, the hat. One humble soul. Here is another Tiananmen Square.

Too obvious a point even to make, perhaps. But there was no “unrest” in Minneapolis before ICE and CBP showed up. ICE and CBP are the cause of the chaos…and the killings. Get them out of there.

He was executed for carrying his cellphone!!!!!!

This is helpful today.

This pre-shooting video clearly shows victim holding a phone as if to film. Agent lays hands on first. Victim does not resist, walks backwards as agent pushes. Fellow observer does not interfere. Zero indication of aggression from victim, who appears only to be filming.

So the “everyone should be armed” second amendment crowd is using the fact the a man was armed (maybe) as justification? Is this right?
