The blue wave disperses the ice

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

What exactly is ICE defending?

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov our tax dollars should not be funding this kind of “police response“! bsky.app/profile/jack...

As the death toll rises to 100, on our streets and while in detention, that we know of, I’m asking state leaders to please put their flags at half mast for victims of ICE. Show us you care about humanity. We need it.

Time blindness is an inconvenient truth. Every time I need to go somewhere, I forget that I tend to run late and that I need to plan if I don’t want to miss the boat.

I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.

I wish folks who I owned dogs would get it through their heads that dogs DON'T understand punitive actions. All that does is make for an unhappy and less trusting relationship . Also if it's cold outside for you it's cold for them.

You don’t need a better routine. You need better reasons to keep going.

Only have to feed it McDonalds crap

For the love of God DO NOT Give pets as Xmas gifts. Too many of these “gifts” end up at the shelter . A Dog/Cat is a gift we give ourselves and they come with many sacrifices. Time,money, and a certain amount of collateral damage in their puppyhood.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

I find the words of Viktor Frankl inspirational, especially during times of injustice. "Everything can be taken from a person but one thing: the last of the human freedoms – to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances" read his story & how he overcame despair in the midst of atrocity

O'Hara: "There's folks that are masked, they may be kidnapping people. We have had those reports. The community should know that if you see something like that, you should call 911. Let's not forget -- we very recently had tragedy in this state by someone who was purporting to be law enforcement."

Thou shalt not pretend that you’re at war with drug traffickers while pardoning drug traffickers.

Stand up now together universities, or fall one by one- your capitulation will not protect you. bsky.app/profile/sitk...

Sadly relevant today.

This 3 y.o. dog needs a home. Anyone in New York??

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

It’s a group of people that think the height of culture & society is “10 year old bully” - what a sad & broken group.

As the billionaires soak up everything and still want more

Amen

Folks, this is what it is really all about. The billionaires, the CEO's, the career politicians, know that as long as we are at each other's throats, we cannot be at theirs. Meanwhile, wealth inequality expands exponentially and We the People scrounge for scraps. It is time we unite against them.

Tip: don't let anyone steal your joy today.

Judge Ellis Criticizes Immigration Agents in Chicago: ‘Use of Force Shocks the Conscience’ (gift article for no paywall) www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...

Every day that ICE continues acting like this, more people’s lives and families will suffer at the iron fist of the ICE regime. Why has no judge been able to stop them? We the people must decide how to uphold the justice system.

What he said: 💯 🎯

so many of us said this over and over again when it started . . . good to come back to this and run it hard:

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

NEVER FORGET: Donald Trump & JD Vance are ILLEGALLY taking away SNAP Benefits. A FIRST in U.S. History. 25 state AGs are suing the Administration. SEE YOU IN COURT!

open.substack.com/pub/jefftied... Great post from jeff Tiedrich: Remember how the press and the MSM were all over Joe Biden about his mental acuity and fitness as POTUS. Where the hell are they now with tRump who is in obvious decline. He needs to be in assisted living #TrumpStroke #25ThHimNow

Paying more for your coffee? A bipartisan Senate voted last night to cancel Trump's tariffs on Brazilian coffee. Why the tariff? Because Donald Trump likes their old wannabe dictator who tried to overturn his last election. While Trump cozies up to autocrats, your costs go up.

So the president took a dementia test, and then they administered an MRI. Where’s the media on this?

Hey GOP! You're not thinking this through. One day soon you won't be in power and the libs will. We will likely not treat you evil as you have us, but we will remind you every day how evil you have acted and are. You also will die at some point. Your fears of the afterlife are coming. It's coming.
