ICE observers in the Twin Cities are in need of dash cams to prevent further intimidation and frivolous claims. Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/... If you've been looking for a way to help, we'd sure appreciate it!

We’ve seen this in Chicago. Now we’re seeing it across the country. ICE is a lawless secret police force and must be abolished. This is fucking horrific.

The ICE murder is like 12 blocks from me and 8 blocks away from George Floyd Square, and the first I heard about it was from my neighborhood WhatsApp from our block captain (who rules) before I saw any reporting on it. And we have this informal block system because of George Floyd’s murder.

🚫🧊 MINNEAPOLIS MAYOR SAYS: ICE get out of town, immediately!

56 years since Neil Young wrote this. Nothing has changed “Gotta get down to it Soldiers are cutting us down Shoulda been done long ago What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground’ How can you run when you know?” We can’t run this time. We have to fight back. Shoulda been done long ago

Where the hell are Google and Apple enforcing their app store terms of service on X? Grok doing CSAM should instantly be a removal from the app store. Any other app doing this would be pulled instantly. Journalists should be asking for comment from these companies.

"You gonna murder someone else? You can't kill us all, Nazis."

Fuck Bari Weiss, fuck bootlicking regime propaganda

I know it's not mainstream conventional wisdom but I think "Abolish ICE" is a perfectly reasonable response to this and you can get the public to buy in. Most people don't want masked murderous thugs roving their streets

Reports say she was a legal observer. bsky.app/profile/prem...

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis. A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times." Bovino was there. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Some folks very confidently saying today's shooting in Minneapolis will dampen protests against ICE. I would not be confident of that.

MPR playing an eye witness account right now of ICE shooting directly through the windshield at her face and not giving her medical care for 10 minutes.

jackbooted regime thugs are invading cities and shooting people in the face america, 2026

A reporter I trust says ICE shot an observer in Minneapolis and killed them this morning.

I undid a repost because I don’t think we know exactly what happened in Minneapolis at this point, but also…. I am not going to trust whatever Bovino and his traveling fascism circus say, because, and this is very clear, they’re fucking fascists.

Friend on the ground says minneapolis cops are currently protecting ICE.

ICE reportedly shot someone at Portland and 33/34. Mspt saying bullets, could be less lethal 20+ agents on site, MPD and ambulances responding. Helicopters overhead

tin soldiers and donald's coming

I'm told there were a bunch of witnesses, multiple videos

This is genuinely one of the most horrifying things I’ve read in a minute on this website.

So the Nazis are shooting bystander Minnesotans now We need them out of our state, NOW. Also arrest and prosecute them

For whatever reason, because of whatever backstory, for whatever ideological drives this guy has always worked for Russia.

keep thinking of a vocally anti-woke reporter who insisted that the term "environmental racism" was nonsense

This is a very concise statement of the case. The district Conway is running in is one where Dems regularly win with 90% of the vote. We elected one of the most liberal members of congress over and over when I was a kid, and re-elected him one more time after he died, just for good measure.

the learned helplessness mindset is thoroughly a part of democratic politics now.

Every country needs to be following Finland's lead here. Media literary skills are going to be crucially important in the age of AI, where knowing what's real and what's not is going to be increasingly difficult apnews.com/article/fake...

On the blog, I argue that Trump is a literal law breaker: He does not merely violate the law; he and his administration seek to render it inoperative, broken. Examples: might-makes-right military actions; J6 pardons; censure of Sen Kelly; and firing members of independent agencies w/o cause. 👇

“I want a progressive movement that is aggressively pro raising wages at the bottom and aggressively pro immigration. These are completely coherent goals.” Great piece by @polphilpod.bsky.social www.liberalcurrents.com/we-need-to-g...

huh

if we can't clearly say that a party whitewashing a coup is anti-democratic and un-American, then we've truly lost the plot

January 6 and Access Hollywood were the two moments when the GOP establishment's initial response was "it's finally over, thank God." And then they wound up walking it back because they'd so badly underestimated the depravity of their base and they weren't willing to stop him without base support.

It's really impossible to overstate how much *everyone* is watching the US threats towards Greenland, not just Europe. If you want to break not just NATO but Five Eyes and maybe our Asian defense alliances too, taking Greenland is how you do it.

The district he is running in is BLUE blue. He is running to make the country less blue. That is what he is doing.

Just a reminder that George Conway is not fundraising right now to run against a MAGA republican. He is fundraising to run against progressive Democrats.

Indeed, David was likely holding the universe together. Blackstar influenced Donny's (and others') entire subsequent musical journey. (@bwjones.bsky.social, you should read this)

Spring semester starting so need to know whether faculty are allowed to say in class that Greenland is ruled by Denmark.

Live from the CBS anchor chair

I watched a news segment of J6ers “retracing their steps” and placing flowers “in honor of” Ashli Babbit at the Capitol. Reminded of how the Nazis mythologized the Beer Hall Putsch and turned the 16 people who died into martyrs who were ritually honored on the attempted coup’s anniversary each year

“The records show that Palantir is actively working on the technical infrastructure underpinning the Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts which could soon impact U.S. citizens.“ Palantir will be used to identify domestic Trump critics soon enough.

CBS is regime propaganda

looking back at now once again trump loyalists statements on jan 6 is crazy because it really illustrates how they’ve managed to sanitize what everyone knew was going on. the jan 6ers were ultimately successful it seems

If Trump uses military force against Denmark, that would be a world historical disaster on the scale that dwarfs what just happened in Venezuela (which is a BFD in itself). It would blow up NATO and alienate all of our allies in Europe, and Canada would side with Europe.

This is absolutely true.

I’m absolutely tired of the Trump administration breaking the law and the legal system keeps saying “please explain.” The legal system is not working. It’s fundamentally broken and I don’t believe in it.

They're doing this so they can call any government program that isn't ICE or the military "rife with fraud" and thus illegitimate. They are trying to manufacture consent to say any entitlement — from Medicare to social security — must be canceled because of extreme edge cases. Don't fall for it.

Not just disappointed. Very disappointed.
