France's Macron says time for Europe to become geopolitical power ground.news/article/fran...

I did - decades ago. A decision I have never regretted.

🚨 THEY thought we were tired. They were wrong. The tide is turning. If you need a dose of hope today, you need to read this report. 👇👇👇

This is such an embarrassing paragraph. Oh, the Justice Department said the allegations are false?! Nothing else to say there I guess!

DO NOT FORGET!!! Renee Good did NOT deserve to have her brains blown out in front of her dog for not complying with armed vigilantes who were terrorizing HER community. You simply arrest, fine and release. YOU DO NOT MURDER! ARREST ICE AGENT ROSS NOW!

So the Epstein files dump 1. Protected a lot of predictors 2. Created another partisan food fight. 3. Failed to create any obvious pathway for these women to get accountability. 4. Included a number of clearly unverified claims that can be used to undermine the very legit emails

Why ‘might makes right’ is wrong in today’s world order https://twp.ai/9PZfrR

Trump murdered an ICU nurse THEN called him a terrorist. Alex Pretti saved lives for a living. Trump repaid this American citizen with TEN BULLETS and is now lying about it. Anyone who supports this brutal lynching should be considered an accomplice

Each deal between colleges and the administration is unique, but they have common goals: altering the culture at powerful institutions and making their policies more aligned with President Trump's.

French MPs demand explanation over tech firm’s contract to help ICE in US

DHS is apparently publishing copy translated from the original Farsi.

Ik vind deze campagne erg belangrijk - doe je ook mee? actie.degoedezaak.org/petitions/bo...

One of the country’s highest-ranking Catholic leaders, and a top ally of Pope Leo, is sharply criticizing the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement, calling ICE a “lawless organization." https://to.pbs.org/3LRVzZd

remember what JD Vance said of the ICE agents that arrested this little boy: “what did you expect them to do?”

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

Tonight, on behalf of Minnesota law enforcement, I filed a lawsuit against DHS to prevent the destruction of evidence related to the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti. DHS is not above the law, and Alex sure as hell is not beneath it.

Here is a good opinion:

This is appalling. I can say with certainty that Steve Jobs would be ashamed of Tim Cook at this terrible moment, one of many these days, and he has sullied the last year of his tenure and the Apple brand by his craven need to please shareholders over holding onto some basic values of decency.

Minnesota's state FBI-like bureau is suing Noem. It says before pre-emptively declaring the killing righteous and abandoning the crime scene, feds took exclusive custody of evidence, including "apparently seized cellphones." MN asserts a sovereign right to investigate crimes within its borders.

Right wingers supported the prosecution of an FBI agent for a mistaken shooting that occured during a standoff with violent gun nuts who had violated the law AND shot a law enforcement officer. Trumpers now claim that a lawful gun owner deserved to be executed by ICE.

now why can’t all members of @democrats.org @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social say this????????

Holy shit.

my thoughts plus some reporting. to alex pretti and renee good 🕊️ open.substack.com/pub/saltysur...

JD Vance, Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, Pete Hegseth, Pamela Bondi, Greg Bovino, and Kristi Noem Have conspired against the US public; they should be held accountable for their crimes. Impeachment is too light of a consequence. Life imprisonment is necessary.

James O'Keefe says he's never seen anything so organized as the anti-ICE movement, observers--he seems to think this term is code--everywhere he goes. Who is paying for it??? he demands to know. It's like he can't even imagine people caring for one another.

The nurses are pissed

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Imagine. Just fucking imagine. 😳👇

r/catbongos has entered the chat

Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus, Gun Owners of America, and Second Amendment Foundation have all called for an investigation of the Pretti shooting. The NRA took a different tack, though.
