The 2025 shootings of Minnesota legislators were treated far too lightly. Media and the public moved on too fast without grasping the seriousness of assassination. These are life and death issues, not just differences of opinion the USA is working out. The reactionary right is ready to kill.

Toughest congressperson in America rears back for a punch, and refuses to cut short townhall, after asshole sprays her with something.

giving republicans the benefit of the doubt or taking them at face value, even once, is per se disqualifying. the trebuchet for tim walz

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.

"CBP stays at the border" might sound like a win, but keep in mind that this is what "the border" means to them www.aclumaine.org/know-your-ri...

We are in the biggest Throw The Bums Out moment I can remember in my lifetime, and that means ALL of the bums

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

They’re gonna use him as a scapegoat, claim bad apple at the helm, and keep doing this with a point person who’s in front of the camera less. Don’t let them get away with anything less than a full dismantling of ICE and DHS.

This is the GM firing an assistant coach and hoping that will be the end of the questions, except with fascism.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

Protests happen, but most of what is happening in Minneapolis isn’t protesting. More accurate terms: - observers - witnesses - volunteers - neighbors - residents - people

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

man the stuff i am seeing on IG from the most normie, i don’t really talk about politics accounts suggests something different

HAPPENING NOW: A massive crowd is gathered in freezing temperatures outside ICE headquarters in DC to demand ICE OUT OF ALL COMMUNITIES NOW.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Today I'm remembering Philando Castile, shot in 2016 by police in the Minneapolis suburbs after being pulled over for a broken brake light. "Sir, I have to tell you that I do have a firearm on me," he said. Ten seconds later one of the cops had shot him five times. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing...

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1775

Tomorrow’s front page of the Minnesota Star Tribune: Jan. 23, 2026

There is *no* functioning Dem leadership at this point. Jeffries and Schumer need to go NOW if our nation is to have any chance.

Voted for ICE funding

7 democrats made this bill pass. If they all voted “no” it would’ve failed 213-214.

right now the floor for me is abolish ICE and put every agent on trial and the average elected democrat is like what if we told them to cut it out

There's one foolproof way to gauge whether someone is a millennial or a zoomer: Ask them how they learned the difference between Iceland and Greenland. If the answer is from D2: The Mighty Ducks, you're talking to a millennial. Otherwise, zoomer.

You cannot overstate how startling it is to see a politician just say the thing with clarity and poise. No fearful hemming. No overwrought qualifying down til it’s meaningless. No lingering sense that there is a loyalty to a donor class or an ideology of stasis that they’d never admit to.

Fuck body cams, the masks are the first thing that needs to go. Agents of the state working with the American public should be clearly identifiable. Local cops don’t get to mask.

My governor and federal reps should be holding press confs and going on tv telling people that one of the largest school districts is closed because of a federal gov’t-led ethnic cleansing campaign run by armed, masked goons who are brutalizing citizen observers and disappearing non-white neighbors.

“We’re going to train the neo-Nazi who joined ICE in deescalation tactics” says the Democratic consultant who is entirely fine with ICE taking your children and putting three in your forehead

Democrat leaders looking for "creative ideas" to fight ICE, I've got a crazy one called "go outside to where the shit is actually happening."

Gavin Newsom is a slick-talking rich transphobic cop-loving dishonest opportunist. He takes his marching orders from billionaires. Newsom is a phony. I think most Americans can see right through him. I don't think he stands a chance in the general. He's Joe Lieberman with better hair.

Because of Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill,” the annual ICE budget — at $28 billion — is now larger than the annual budgets of the FBI, DEA, ATF, U.S. Marshals Service and the Bureau of Prisons COMBINED. No. The American people do not want Trump's domestic army.

The Dalles, a rural city in north-central Oregon, wants to expand its reservoir in the Mount Hood National Forest to store more water. While city officials say the water is needed for a growing population, environmental advocates worry it's really for Google and its growing number of data centers.

Poland failed to win the Hitler team over

have you heard the news? a mayor of a big city told ice to get the fuck out of their city. wow! to celebrate this momentous act of resistance his city's police force declared an unlawful assembly and detained 30 people. drumpf certainly has egg on his face now 🤣🤣

Mendoza and Cignetti

You don't have to stand for the national anthem, Rip City.

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers. Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

Senators Ron Wyden, Ben Ray Lujan, and Ed Markey just published an open letter urging Apple + Google to remove the X and Grok apps from their app stores: www.nbcnews.com/tech/interne...

ICE killed a Black man, Keith Porter, 7 days before Renee Good, and I hadn't heard about it until today. His vigils went unnoticed. His life came and gone and America forgot to blink. Two Americas.

7 Democrats just voted today to confirm a Trump judicial nominee who refused to say what happened on January 6 or answer who won the 2020 election: Durbin Hassan Kaine King Klobuchar Shaheen Welch

We're at the "Don't go out in public if you have brown skin because you might be murdered or kidnapped" stage of white supremacist fascism.

ICE must be abolished. The work of our time is to tear down the system that built it and remake it into one that embraces and designs systems that include all people from all places. This work will be done, because the alternative is unbearable.

Oh

I want to see every single congressional Democrat proposing & cosponsoring the Renee Nicole Good Act, which abolishes ICE, impeaches Noem, and imposes consequences on federal agents who murder citizens on our streets in cold blood.

ICE needs to be taken apart, brick by brick, and we need to salt the earth.

Democrats will continue to vote for Republican judges (like this guy, who refused to say who won the 2020 election) until Democrats are punished for voting for Republican judges

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches
