Full on neo-Nazi conspiracy theories from the president tonight — the very same invasion and replacement conspiracy theories that have fueled a cycle of deadly violence targeting so many communities including immigrants, Jews, Latinos, the Black community, Muslims, and more.

The ACLU of Minnesota and several law firms filed the suit Wednesday on behalf of six Minnesotans who say they’ve been detained or threatened by federal agents while lawfully observing ICE operations, including Susan Tincher of Minneapolis who was detained when she confronted ICE agents.

This group has shipped something like 15,000 whistles in the last week or so. Incredible stuff happening here.

“This is my jazz trick,” my 5yo grinned while squirting melty snow with blue diluted food dye. It’s been a painful week. My mind is in a dozen places. Watching the helpers step in and show up has been a silver-lining to the cruelty our communities are witnessing here in MN. Hope leads by actions.

Seeking a musician (acoustic guitar? cello? other strings?) to play background music of your choosing as folk gather for a solstice remembrance service at my family's funeral home in St. Paul on 12/20 from 3:30-4pm, during a candle lighting 4:15-4:25ish, 5-5:30pm as folk depart. Paid gig, of course.

Extremely important story about what ending TPS and the mass deportation of Haitians means on the ground to Springfield and to these families - impossible for me to come to grips with the grotesque suffering this ethnic cleansing will cause and is already causing.

We’ve reached the point in this crisis where comrades from out of state are shipping us packages of thousands of whistles to distribute. Know that when we win here- we’ll return that favor for the next city. Just as Chicago has taught us. We are all in this together.

A day after an immigration raid outside an East Side home devolved into clashes with protesters, family members say they were taunted and humiliated during a standoff with federal agents. By Shubhanjana Das

We picked up an additional 3400 3D printed Minneapolis whistles tonight. So grateful to Chicago for sharing their resources and lessons with all of us.

WTF 🤬 Federal agents are using chemical aerosol spray on protesters in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Heads up Asheville - there’s a resolution that will go before City Council today to prohibit ICE and CBP from using city property for operations. This would include parks, lots, schools, libraries, and community centers. Please email city council in support. [email protected] 1/2

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson calls for a general strike against the "tyranny" of Trump and the greed of the ultra-rich. “Time for them to pay their fair share.” #nokings

I hope our @dfl.org leadership takes seriously the experiences of trans, nonbinary, and two-spirit voters in this state. We have worked hard to build a trans-inclusive Minnesota. Our community growing deep roots here. To see our community dismissed and disregarded in this way is unacceptable.

Okay now this is impressive! Sound on!

Someone asked me what victory against the forces seeking to occupy Chicago looks like. Obviously, those forces being repelled is the goal, but there are layers to what success looks like in these deteriorating conditions. The first is to successfully resist the normalization of military occupation.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

They're openly calling to lock up every trans person by force. We need every ally to speak out forcefully against this because trans folks cannot do this on our own.

the message from the white house is that you live in a city run by people the president doesn't like, you will be occupied like you are an enemy of the state.

“How to Report ICE” zines now available for these areas: NYC Philly Durham, NC All of Massachusetts I will add more as I get them done. Download them to print here: drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Donald Trump is creating a climate of fear, causing people to forego necessary and authorized medical care. That is unacceptable. This ruling is another reminder that no one is above the law, including the President.

hey, cis folks! this is monstrous & it’s only going to get more common & if you remember 2020 when white moms stood between cops & black protestors that’s probably what it’ll take in some cases for trans people to survive using a public bathroom in the same shape they went in. i hope you will.

people: police need to be held accountable police: that’s why we have body cams people: ok show us the body cam footage police: no

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

Published in 2024. Resoundingly urgent and helpful in putting the pieces together on the wide-ranging fascist seizure we are facing.

Head of NASA Sean Duffy intends to destroy a satellite that collects key data on carbon dioxide and plant health, by causing it to burn up in the atmosphere. The U.S. Dept of Agriculture and private agriculture firms use the data to forecast crop yield, drought conditions and more.

They waited *more than an hour* to enter the Hortman home after watching Mark Hortman get shot in the doorway Unbelievably tragic & heartbreaking And, of course, they publicly congratulated themselves on a great, lifesaving police response when they’d let a lawmaker bleed out. Uvalde is everywhere

A provocative dating app designed to let women anonymously ask or warn each other about men they'd encountered rocketed to the top spot on the U.S.

“As the Israeli government’s siege starves the people of Gaza, aid workers are now joining the same food lines, risking being shot just to feed their families. [H]umanitarian organisations are witnessing their own colleagues and partners waste away before their eyes.”

July: 6yo dreams that transform into books, Cecropia moths waiting, a candlelit tea party, dark matter lecture & Walter Library, taro ice cream that “tastes like purple”, good trouble, puppet shows, concertinas, taiko drums, closeness before bed to unfurl their thoughts, storms from the stoop & afar

Cherishing this interview of Joanna Macy and Krista Tippett that aired in 2010. And also this rich conversation between Joanna Macy and her student and friend, Jessica Serrante: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

“Active Hope is not wishful thinking. Active Hope is not waiting to be rescued by the Lone Ranger or by some savior. Active Hope is waking up to the beauty of life on whose behalf we can act." — Joanna Macy (May 2, 1929 – July 19, 2025)

I wrote a memorial essay in praise of the great Joanna Macy over there at my newsletter.....

Please keep in mind this is what they were allowed to see and not what goes on when no one is looking. And even this is bad.

Something Kelly Hayes wrote that has been spinning in my mind: "I don't want to live in this world, such as it is, so I live in the pursuit of making it otherwise. There is no perfect solution. There's no blueprint. There's struggle, and everything that we manage to make worthwhile along the way."

200 Veterans are showing up to immigration hearings to physically stand with Afghan refugees & shield them from harassment & unlawful ICE arrest.

What’s the next likely stage with a network of concentration camps? Forced slave labor. As historian Timothy Snyder urges, CEOs should pledge to not hire these laborers and each of us should pledge not to buy from or invest in companies that do. www.americaamerica.news/p/will-we-to...

The ICE camps are concentration camps. They should be called concentration camps. It is, of course, important to distinguish between concentration camps and death camps, but also, I am not sure we will know when or if we undergo the transition from concentration camps into death camps.
