Oh, yes.

oh man, the Walker Art Center is going to be closed on Friday (If you're not from the Twin Cities, this is like MoMA closing in support of a general strike—a very big deal)

Breaking WaPo: The recent death of a detainee at an immigrant detention camp in Texas has been officially deemed a homicide, according to an autopsy report released Wednesday by the El Paso County Office of the Medical Examiner.

guys minneapolis is a living hell today. they've tear-gassed so many people, tear-gassed a park, beaten people up in front of me. greg bovino is rolling around to gas stations and posing in front of them, trying to cause a riot.

McGovern: Well, he said a lot of crazy shit today. I think it’s time to take the keys away from grandpa. He doesn’t seem like he’s all there.

The world learned today that you absolutely have to bully this dumb old asshole as a collective. Better late than never for them, but we better get used to being aggressively humiliated for the next few years.

I went to a protest in New York City today and three Proud Boys were circulating among the crowd pretending to be members of the press (or maybe influencers) interviewing individual protestors. But espionage is not their forte; one was wearing a body cam and a "PB" patch. Stay vigilant, people.

MN Doctor: I learned that Renee Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. Yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone here as we try to fulfill our oath to care for the people of Minnesota

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers. I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

The Founders (rightly) thought financial corruption was so concerning they banned it in the Constitution three separate times: the two emoluments clauses, and the only named impeachable offense besides treason. Starting in 2017, America decided it just kinda didn't matter anymore, whatcha gonna do.

Wow. So sleazy.

As a family member who has sat vigil with loved ones experiencing serious health issues (including in late 2020 & early 2021 as nurses, CNAs & other staff struggled with the extraordinary burden of COVID-19), I have witnessed situations where the staff had to deal with violent patients.

No one belongs on a “Peace” board less than Trump except for Putin who invaded & continues to brutalize Ukraine during the coldest months. The toddler who didn’t get a Nobel b/c he didn’t deserve it is trying to punch back. In case it’s not obvious, it was always about Russia.

Drennon Davis & Newt Fuck ICE

Drennon Davis

Bruce Springsteen: “ICE should get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”

Dr. Gladys West, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern GPS technology, has died. She was 95.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

Uncanny—it’s come to my mind often of late as well. Paul Simonon of The Clash (not Joe Strummer) wrote that one (The Guns of Brixton)—check out this magical moment last year, in which he came across some young street busker kids in London—and they play it for him and he sings with them—

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.

next reporter who interviews stephen miller should ask him point blank if his goal in minneapolis is to kill more americans

With arms linked and snow falling, Minneapolis ICE protesters dance as ICE agents retreat back. "Nah nah nah, hey hey hey, goodbye!" WATCH ⬇️

I will try to do this this weekend!!!

New: We built an interactive map of every ICE contractor working with the Trump administration. readsludge.com/2026/01/16/t...

Next Friday, we are saying ICE out…for GOOD! 🗓️Friday, January 23rd ⏰4 PM 📍Union Square Spread the word & join us!

NEW: Jonathan Ross, the ICE thug who murdered Renee Good, was NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL according to police reports. He was taken to the Federal Building. He was NOT INJURED. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Absolutely terrifying. Maybe it’s time we use harsher, more reality-based language and grams to explain that Trump and Republicans want to kill Americans—for exercising our First Amendment right, sure, but also for existing.

Nobody is “grooming” your kids to be gay or trans but people are grooming them to be Nazis.

Do NOT let the Nobel Prize be used as positive reinforcement for Trump's invasion of Venezuela – and his threatened invasion of Greenland. Make a statement. Take a stand. Revoke Machado's Prize.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents. Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center. Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

I joined one of the picket lines yesterday and plan to do it again soon. We need our nurses, and we need them to be treated right!

Almost 15,000 New York City nurses go on strike. "Staffing levels are a top issue for striking nurses. The union says nurses are dealing with unmanageable workloads. Nurses also want improved security in hospitals, better pay, and fully-funded benefits." abc7ny.com/post/nyc-nur...

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?

BREAKING: Senate Republicans just blocked the clean ACA tax credit extension that the House passed to save millions of people thousands of dollars each. If you’re paying double or even triple for health insurance, blame Trump and the Senate GOP.
