If you cannot do it with people watching, what you're doing is not "law enforcement," obviously. It is legal to observe ICE, and the people committing "obstruction of justice" here are not the observers. This should be 100000000% obvious.

The moral earnestness of "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" feels a lot more subversive than anything ever attempted in "Game of Thrones."

Knight of the Seven Kingdoms reinvents and rejuvenates the Game of Thrones franchise by “being enjoyable to watch”

My 70-something small-town mom told me she's going to get a rebel loon tattoo (her first ever)

Watergate, but if someone was killed.

on the balance i think partisan gerrymandering is bad but the only way it ends is if democrats weaponize it against republicans everywhere they can. wiping out republican lawmakers in blue states might bring the GOP to the table to end the practice.

“Renee Goodman [sic], Alex Pretti – there are no words,” DeLauro said. “You said there were no words after the murder of those two individuals,” said Rev. Jack Perkins Davidson. “I think the words are ‘Abolish ICE.’” www.ctpublic.org/news/2026-02...

one thing i always look for in a currency is the capacity to lose 15% of its value in response to nothing in particular

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

They really don't get it

Don’t worry everyone, I have a plan to personally save journalism. I simply need to make a billion dollars and not be corrupted by my newfound wealth

“If I am killed doing this, throw my body at the White House, martyr the shit out of me & raise hell. Do not be sad. Do not think I would do anything differently. I would do it over & over again — this is too important to sit down & shut up and not do anything.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

finally, the ICE reform we’ve been waiting for: no masks unless you really want to wear them

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

"Touching stoves takes careful planning from a facility and infrastructure standpoint. Unfortunately, we learned this after the fact."

I have confirmed the gist of this report out of federal court in Minnesota today from a source familiar. If you have more information about the District of Minnesota—either the court or the U.S. Attorney's Office—and how they are handling all of this, please reach out. I am at crg.32 on Signal.

Blumenthal: "With us in spirit are Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti. In spirit. They should be here in person, but they were murdered. They were murdered by their own government. They were killed in cold blood, and I can only imagine how painful it must be for you [Good's brothers]... to be here."

Josh Shapiro is a disgusting worm. Krasner’s opinion here should be the message of every elected democrat in the U.S.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Karen has a new piece in the strib about healing the rural-urban divide, and differing viewpoints on ICE. Unrelated: Norway had stopped using capital punishment in 1876, until they reinstated it after WWII so they could execute Quisling and other collaborators. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_p...

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

No masks on cops. No masks on cops. No masks on cops. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Please do not seed paranoia into the population by acting like going to a protest will make you the target of a government hit. It won’t. There are tens of thousands of people at protests, what you’re doing is legal, you will not be picked off one-by-one in a murder campaign. It’s online hysteria.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Minneapolis is trying out new forms of resistance. They're doing pop-up blockade block parties. This one is on Cedar and 34th, a main route into the city. They have a stereo, food & a fire. MPD is present but not interfering. Lots of honks of support. ICE agents have been reported detouring around.

Just moments ago the parkway was TAKEN OVER by winter cyclists. At first I thought hundreds, but they just kept coming. Thousands and thousands! I almost cried. I’m so dang proud of MN right now.

The good news is this means things are going terribly for them. The bad news is they’re going to become increasingly desperate, violent, and brutal. And have three years to escalate unless Trump can be removed first.

xbox live took stronger action against jeffrey epstein than the entire us government

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders is introducing an amendment to cut ICE’s $75 billion funding increase, and to use those funds to restore the federal cuts to health care.

I’m a NO — not one more penny for ICE without stopping this violence. Two American citizens were killed by federal agents. No more roving patrols. No more secret masked police. No more warrantless raids. Investigate and prosecute ICE crimes. Get ICE out of Minnesota.

My 7yo daughter’s best friends’ family fled the country a few weeks ago. Today she came home with a drawing of her and another friend blowing whistles at ICE agents. “We’re blowing the whistles and so ICE will go away and our friends can come back,” she said. I started sobbing uncontrollably.

1) this is horrible, horrific, awful to think about its intended use 2) i never want to hear "but we can't just put all these unemployed ice agents back out onto the streets" ever again. we know exactly where we can put them bsky.app/profile/fola...

These agencies are a direct, ongoing threat to the freedom, safety, and welfare of every person who lives in this country. That's it. They have to go. "But what about--" sorry we'll figure that out later. Everything is secondary to ending fascist goon squads

We demand immediate reform in the tactics of lunch money reappropriators. Furthermore, we require written assurances that 75% of wrongly-seized lunch funds be returned within two fiscal years.

Border Patrol employee found ‘covered in vomit’ in St. Paul, charged with drunk driving

My @mprnews.org colleague & I rode along with observers after the Twin Cities surge at the start of December, well before most national publications came to town. It was really necessary to get at what ICE is really doing on the ground & how people are opposing it. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/1...
