This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

Journalist Georgia Fort has been released from custody (video @fox9mn.bsky.social)

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning I was sent this video of agents at her door:

I really try to keep an even keel, and self-regulate because it’s the only way to be in this for the long haul, but sometimes the fury overtakes you for a bit.

This is not what "we're supposed to do." You don't need a concealed carry permit in Texas. Texans do not have to show our IDs to police unless we are lawfully detained (reasonable suspicion) or arrested (probable cause). This guy would rather sacrifice his own rights than break the party line.

Memory is a fragile thing in this moment, so it is important to keep in mind that Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his caucus against ICE funding earlier this week.

Stress eating, stress sleeping, stress doing the dishes, etc

If Dems can't convince their party to not allow the necessary 10 here? They all need to fucking go. Dems call themselves a 'party" but cry wo is me when that party can't come together as a party as to not be complicit to evil

i think it is simply true that for all intents and purposes stephen miller is the president of the united states

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

Look at this absolute queen

People are DEMANDING that you oppose Trump's Gestapo and protect people from being shot in the face by their government.

If you don't stand against fascism, you undoubtedly still be affected This guy was just trying to get home, ICE threw a smoke grenade in the car. his kids ended up inhaling unknown amounts of smoke. This is how fascism functions. The boot does not care who it stomps, remember that

Protestors have gone inside the Hilton hotel ICE is staying at in downtown Minneapolis

Some people really believe themselves to be the hero, they think they are she hulk, but really their the green goblin and have no self awareness to their villainy

Frey: "This notion of inflammatory comments -- c'mon guys. I dropped an F bomb, they killed someone. Which one of those is more inflammatory? I'm going with the killing somebody."

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

There is never enough cream cheese to a bag of bagels ratio. I either have too many bagels and not enough cream cheese, or too much cream cheese and no more bagels My small gripe

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders

kind of darkly funny that "gender studies" is the stereotypical "useless degree" because gender studies will help you understand a large and important chunk of the current psychosis in american life

they're doing it for gender, imo

sure sure you can have hegemony by trade, ideology and cultural influence, but does that make your dick hard?

Mamdani: I have been told that this is the occasion to reset expectations, that I should use this opportunity to encourage the people of New York to ask for little and expect even less. I will do no such thing. The only expectation I seek to reset is that of small expectations.

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

But but... We got promises....

When was this mythical time period?

even if the Supreme Court says we can never touch Trump for any of this shit, the next admin should go after everyone involved in buying and selling pardons and they should do it loudly and aggressively

If you wait long enough after pretending to respond to outrage, you can simply do it again and hope no one notices. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Too many people think the issue is "ai look bad" not the stolen data sets not the workers rights not the climate change and the fact that people CANNOT AFFORD TO TURN ON THEIR HEAT because they're subsidizing data centers, let alone the misinformation and fascism

The "architects" of AI would have to have actually built something useful to be considered architects, let alone be crowned "person" of the year.

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported? NOEM: We haven't deported veterans MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

If they are going to this length just hate on "DEI" then what steps won't they take to hate? www.nytimes.com/2025/12/11/u...

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara to US citizen detained by ICE: "I apologize that this happened to you in my city with people wearing vests that say 'police.' That's embarrassing."

America is on its last brain cell and it's burning up fast

That is patently false: not only do immigrants score better than native-born Americans in tests, the mere presence of immigrants improve test scores for all students, when factoring in white flight sesp.northwestern.edu/news-events/...

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed. Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it. When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

More of this !!

i think to understand the meaning of the birthright citizenship clause to the framers of the 14th amendment, you have to understand significance of dred scott to the civil war republican party. dred scott wasn't just a bad ruling, it was understood as a rejection of the declaration itself.

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

this really isn’t an exaggeration

Right...

Oh REEEAAAAALLY?? Damn who could have ever seen this coming... Hmmmmmm Dems just love being losers. Bu bu but we got a promise of a vote....

HOW @nytimes.com?

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

something i'll note is that if nuzzi ran catch-and-kill ops for rfk jr and lizza knew this prior to him being appointed as HHS, and instead of telling anyone, he decided to save it for his substack long after rfk jr had made communicable disease into federal policy, that's completely fucked
