The shooting happened 3 miles from my home. #Clairemont is a community I’ve lived in for the last 15 years. It’s where I work and send my kids to school. A community of faith is devastated. We need more than thoughts and prayers.

Minnesota is under occupation by federal agents from ICE and CBP, and needs support. www.standwithminnesota.com

i joined a group of people out tracking ICE vehicles around minneapolis. the agents didn't seem to like it very much. i guess i'm in the DHS database now? www.webworm.co/database/

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

BREAKING NEWS: ICE agents have shot and killed another person in Minneapolis. I was interviewing Minnesota AG @ag.state.mn.us when it happened and he explains why it has become an absolute necessity for the “invasion of the Twin Cities by federal agents” to come to a stop. youtu.be/mh7bR-_rPAo

i will be reporting from minneapolis for webworm on the strike and march. this background post is paywalled, but as per usual my reporting there will be available for free and paid members: www.webworm.co/webwormminne...

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that." -MLK As always, Dr. King's message is right on time. Today calls on all of us to hear his wisdom and put it into action.

Law profs—share this with your 1Ls. This is the kind of thing that gives them hope and a reason to feel line there is still a reason to study law and develop legal writing skills.

Really fun group discussion over on Twitter about what “murder” actually is. Learning a lot!

Morrison: "The president & Noem are asking us to not believe what we're all seeing with our own eyes. It's incredibly irregular for the secretary to come out making pronouncements before victim had even been identified. We didn't even have her name & she was already calling her a domestic terrorist"

i am raging about what happened in minneapolis - as we all should be - as federal agents are now actively killing people in the streets (and trump and the dhs are actively attempting to cover it up): www.webworm.co/iceshooting/

Bragging that you just passed your 3rd dementia test is a great way of telling us they've made you take 3 dementia tests

Not to be controversial but I think we should use tools and resources to make people's lives less miserable instead of more

NEWS: Donald Trump is on the verge of a federal takeover of Washington, D.C. and is telling all homeless residents to leave immediately. I am in D.C. and I will cover this live and on the ground. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

We live in a nation where I am now sending out alerts about what the U.S. attorney general is doing in our name. It’s a lot to sit with. It’s going to get a lot darker before it starts getting lighter, but I will keep doing what I do. And, it will get lighter again.

The nation's fifth most populous county, San Diego, just chose its political future today—and appears to have chosen to have a Democratic local government—and it's crickets everywhere. Quite the eye-popping example of the NY/East-Coast-bias of how elections get covered.

Spoke to two USAID employees today. Hard to describe the chaos happening there right now. Critical programs providing food, medicine, and fuel to countries like Ukraine have been halted. Half the workforce has been fired. Staff are being intimidated. And today, the USAID website was taken down.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Today is the 80th anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz concentration camp. 😢 The lessons of history are sadly forgotten!

ABC White House correspondent just released ANOTHER anti-trans EO expected that we did not cover in our piece this morning: A federal ban on funding to programs that acknowledge and affirm transgender people.

Elon Musk doing a Nazi salute during Trump's inauguration festivities is something that, yes, I had on my 2025 bingo card.
