I heard about a killing of a Black man in DC by US marshals on a call from someone in the neighborhood then saw it confirmed by the organization @harrietsdreams.bsky.social & here. A Black man in DC was killed by the state today. Make the same noise for him as for anyone else when we have his name.

Been processing the news that Catherine O'Hara passed away from complications from something I know oh so well, Rectal Cancer..and just learned that James Vanderbeek has also passed away from this shitty disease. Please don't put off your colonoscopy. 💙

Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse released this ad during the Super Bowl calling for the full release of the files and demanding answers from Pam Bondi. "We all deserve the truth."

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

Wow. 'Hold me in contempt, Judge, so I can get some sleep,' says DOJ attorney defending its unconstitutional detentions. "The system sucks. I hate my job." Saving this post for the #ICETribunal, 'just-doing-my-job good soldier' edition.

This ALWAYS makes me laugh.

RENEE GOOD’S BROTHERS: “Renee believed kindness mattered, and she lived that belief — even when things were hard… She looked for the light, and if she couldn’t find it she became the light for somebody else.”

10/10 ICE protest sign

january

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him. “When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

There's no ICE accountability without ending qualified immunity. They're murdering people. There won't be justice for the lives they've stolen, but there must be accountability. My bill with @markey.senate.gov would ensure families can sue the agents murdering their loved ones.

The Epstein files must be worse than we could even imagine.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Wow— “Cardinal Tobin told hundreds of faithful gathered online that now is the time to say no — no to violence, no to indifference, and no to funding the U.S. government’s own “machinery of death.” www.thelettersfromleo.com/p/pope-leos-...

This much is clear: Stephen Miller is in charge. They've shipped off Bovino, they're hanging Noem out to dry, Trump is using slightly conciliatory language...and Miller is still running a blitzkrieg in Minnesota. He, not Trump, is in charge. And he is the one Democrats should fight to remove.

SCOOP: Nursing home companies donated $4.8M to Trump's super PAC in Aug-Sept. Their executives landed a lunch in Aug. with Trump at his NoVa golf club where they asked him to revoke a rule to increase staffing to prevent patient neglect. His administration revoked the rule a few months later.

Guys maybe the number one obstacle to organizing here in Minneapolis is the unfounded fear that if you get involved, DHS will put you on a list and assassinate you. It leads people to avoid organizing or act in ways that are completely detrimental to organizing. Please please do not spread that fear

One of my mentors reminded me a few years ago that every time we speak there are millions of new people who have never heard what we said before. It's new to them. That's what keeps me going: the possibility that some new people might take what is said and move the ball closer towards Liberation.

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc... Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

No words for this. Please share widely.

Feels like it should be a pretty big deal that a Trump supporter physically assaulted a Democratic congressman

ICE is coming to Portland and Lewiston imminently, their mayors confirmed today. Both cities have large Somali populations. When reached for comment, ICE wouldn’t even confirm whether or not this action was happening.

Get in loser, we're going to put our bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, to make it stop

When you rip out the roses..

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

Watch the woman with a little girl in her lap running from this chaos around 0:09 second mark. I really cannot believe this is happening in America. 🥲

After the killing of Minneapolis mother of three Renee Nicole Good by an ICE officer, Unitarian Universalists are responding with grief, protest, and mutual aid—showing up for neighbors and living their values in a time of crisis. Read more: bit.ly/4qcHxjv #UU #UnitarianUniversalist #Minneapolis

Grateful for the sustained presence of religious leaders in #Minneapolis and across the country, keeping our focus on the life that was taken and the danger that a policy of fear and violence at the highest levels of government presents for us all. #ReneeNicoleGood #UU

At last night’s candlelight vigil for Renee Nicole Good, Bishop Rob Hirschfeld of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire announced he had asked the clergy of the diocese to get their affairs in order and to make sure they have their wills written ...,

Steve Kerr called out the regime for lying about Minneapolis. Truth matters. Silence helps no one. We need more leaders with a spine. Speak up. Demand facts. Democracy needs voices, not cover-ups.

Hi folks, I'm seeing a lot of "Eyes on Minneapolis" & "We support Minnesota" sentiment. Here's a tangible way you can help: Trump just suspended federal funding for SNAP benefits to Minnesota. Second Harvest Heartland is an MN-based hunger-relief org. Please donate what you can. www.2harvest.org

DOJ is still violating the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Not a novel observation, obviously, but these guys sincerely love to threaten and put their hands on women.

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

The invasion of MN is, I strongly believe, an attempt to create cause to invoke Insurrection Act. It is a pivotal moment to attempt to discredit the goons or face civil war. Greg Bovino's job, from day one, has been to create excuses to invade military. www.emptywheel.net/2026/01/07/t...

Gird your loins! 2000 federal agents have just been deployed to Minneapolis for the next 30 days. Take the ICE Watch Training tonight.
