I want to see a BIPARTISAN grilling of Senator Mullin at his appointment hearing.

📷 unknown. Majestic.

Judge Ana Reyes in D.C. has temporarily blocked the Feb. 3 termination of TPS for Haitians. Without TPS, many Haitian immigrants in the U.S. could face deportation back to Haiti.

How about the criminal sitting in the Oval???

Not because, due to him cramming his name on it while undertaking an authoritarian assault on society, rights, and life, no respectable artist will willingly touch the Kennedy Center steps and one of the most prestigious venues in the *Entire World* can't keep its doors open, no. "For construction."

A reminder that the Kennedy Center is the literal and legal and congressional designated presidential memorial to JFK. This would be like Trump tearing down the Lincoln Memorial to build something “better.”

"Four hours after his arrest, he was taken to a hospital emergency room in Edina with swelling and bruising around his right eye and bleeding. A CT scan revealed at least eight skull fractures and life-threatening hemorrhages in at least five areas of his brain..." apnews.com/article/immi...

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

NEWS: The Trump regime has arrested Don Lemon in its latest crackdown on journalism after he reported from inside a church protest in Minnesota—despite a magistrate judge previously rejecting the case against him as unsupported by evidence.

Polishing her Nuremberg defense.

Republicans are holding our government hostage to cover their tracks.   I will be voting NO on a funding package that includes DHS and continues to fuel this administration's lawless actions.

we should save up all the leap days and then every hundred years have Huge February

A couple years ago I wrote a story noting that competent military commanders actually think diversity is good for the armed forces because a wide variety of eyes at the table helps to identify gaps that monoracial groupthink can miss. Anyway the anti ICE coalition in Minnesota is beating MAGA.

👀 Judge Schlitz, the chief federal judge in Minnesota, has ordered the head of ICE, Todd Lyons, to appeal personally in court Friday and threatened him with contempt for the agency’s repeated violation of court orders. “The court’s patience is at an end.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It's Tuesday. Bovino may be gone but nothing has changed. ICE is still in Minnesota, still not following the law or court orders. Stephen Miller and the agents who murdered Good and Pretti are still on the job. Trump is giving an econ speech in Iowa. The work continues. bsky.app/profile/kyle...

Ah, well, it's not like he represents Minnesota in Congress or anything

Sending thoughts and prayers to everyone employed or represented or by Brad Finstad this morning.

Abolish ICE is not enough. Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough. We need prosecutions and trials. Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

Gallego: I think it's ridiculous that Kristi Noem just went out right away and basically called this poor victim, a violent terrorist. That right there is impeachable. She lied about a citizen to justify his murder. The president should ask for her resignation.

Okay. Time to call your democratic senators and tell them that Bovino’s demotion and humiliation WILL NOT SUFFICE to fund DHS.

“the people united will never be defeated” There's no better way to end the day. Be well friends. ❤️

I spent several hours yesterday making a giant batch of French onion soup for the freezer!

Went to my local library this morning to do a bit of research for my current book project and my goodness such a life-affirming space! There was an adult being taught to read on the next table, children enjoying story time, countless people taking out books. So grateful for our libraries ❤️

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years. These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

they're taking motherfuckers who could not hack it as prison guards, they are draining the 'Mall Security Dude With A Tactical Loadout Belt' swamp dry

Looks like Greg Bovino is the chosen fall guy as the Trump admin scrambles to navigate the anti-ICE backlash. Reportedly being "forced into retirement" and denied access to his social media accounts. Don't accept it for a second. Keep pushing for full accountability.

Liam himself is five goddamned years old and should be at home with an adult he trusts right now no matter who his parents are. It would not matter if they were literal criminal masterminds, Liam Ramos is a baby and babies do not belong in prison.

Love to see it

I will vote for and help support the first candidate who I believe will: •bring to justice the monsters who have attacked all of our rights by perpetuating this evil upon the American people and

What Minneapolis residents have done this month in terms of organizing and community response is as remarkable as anything I've ever seen

Does anyone get the feeling they unloaded ten shots to make sure Pretti could never live to tell the tale? Same with Renee Good. The first two shots were non-lethal. It was the third shot into her left temple from the side of the car that killed her, according to the autopsy.

Jim Jordan will humiliate himself, my home state of Ohio, & The Ohio State University today at Jack Smith's public testimony. Jim Jordan didn't get that seat through gerrymandering. That's a lie Ohioans tell themselves. He is very reflective of that part of Ohio near where I grew up.

Last year I was appointed by @advocate.nyc.gov to D75 council. I have learned so much and , surprisingly, had fun. Now I’m eyeing the Bronx Tourism Council. I’m still mad I didn’t know unpaid local roles let you create real, visible change and meet genuinely cool people. #Pinks #Momsky

This photo captures a peaceful, long pier stretching out into calm waters under a dramatic sky. This is an excellent example of long-exposure photography, which beautifully blurs the movement of clouds and water to create a serene and timeless feel. What do you think?

#MorningVibe Helen Reddy wrote 'I Am Woman' in 1972, capturing the spirit of 2nd - wave feminism. Today, it’s as relevant as ever. 'I am woman, hear me roar In numbers too big to ignore' We are invincible. We are women. We’ll never stop fighting for our rights.

The best way of describing someone who’s all talk and no action that I’ve ever heard in the UK, by far, is “they’re all wardrobe and no Narnia.” * read on for fun ways of saying “all talk and no action” in other languages (a thread)

Jamelle Bouie: "most coverage of Trump treats him as president in a functional way, even if he doesn’t perform the civic duties of the office. His letter to the prime minister of Norway suggests that this is a mistake. It shows that he is essentially unable to serve as president"

Crockett: "You only love enforcement when they're going after Black, brown, immigrants, that kind of folk. But on January 6, you didn't care about law enforcement."

Congress is about to vote to give more money to ICE. Call your representatives and let them know that every vote for more spending is a vote against our rights. Blood is on their hands. Literally. Remember, with enough pressure, anything can break. wendy664.substack.com/p/congress-c...

Remember when KAMALA kept threatening Iceland/Greenland/NATO , nope wasn’t her she wanted to help with housing, groceries, utilities. Middle class issues . Faux News didn’t like her laugh

Every poll these days is like: - Mad Nazi Pedophile King: 39% - The Democrats: 42%
