This is one of the most important cases that galvanized Black people in the late 40s through the 1950s. Almost every major Black leader had a comment about it. It is also one of the most successful defense committees that was organized in the 20th century. Almost no one knows about it today.

I also heard that ICE was planning to pull out of Minnesota: www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2026/...

These aren't arrests. They are outright kidnappings. The woman was just driving down road. The red SUV suddenly swerved in front of her. 3 masked federal agents jumped out and aimed their guns at her. shouting “Out of the car!” Like a scene out of Fallujah, Iraq, but it's Minnesota.

Once again, being an undocumented entry is a civil misdemeanor. Being an undocumented overstay is a civil infraction, not even a misdemeanor.

death from disease in concentration camps is so widespread and so predictable that it's pretty clearly a feature, not a bug.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

4 federal agents pull over an elderly US citizen for the suspected crime of being brown, break her car window, throw her to the ground, then drive off after they find her US Passport in her purse. The Salem Police, when called, say there’s nothing they can do. www.salemreporter.com/2026/01/31/u...

HUGE TEXAS UNION WIN: @iamunion.bsky.social leader Taylor Rehmet was just elected to the Texas Senate! This win kicks off a wave of union candidates across the state. While parties are trying to reconnect with the working class, we’re running union members up and down the ballot — and winning. ✊

A +17 Trump TX Senate district appears to be going to the Democrat. This is the kind of thing this Texas ex-pat has dreamed of for literal decades. We are going to win, friends. We just have to fight for it. Find your organizing home and get to work.

This is a good point re: Portland today This wasn't on federal land It wasn't when agents were claiming to do any enforcement activity It was federal agents shooting gas at children and union families in the streets Im not a lawyer, but I dont see how qualified immunity counts here It's assault

NEW: School hallways are silent. Grandparents patrol outside in shifts. Two more kids taken from Liam Ramos' school. Trump isn't deescalating ICE at all at MN schools. “I stopped wearing my high heels to work. I wear my boots to work because I have had to run." www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

UTAH auto body shop owner: “You guys broke the fucking window to get in here! Where is your warrant??” Trump’s ICE goons: “Yes we did… We don’t need one.” 🤔 Rights are gone under this regime. (From Somali Snaps: www.instagram.com/reel/DUKpzuS...)

I don't like to talk about stories before they are fully reported, but I am writing on ICE in a Minnesota town that isn't Minneapolis. However bad you think it is, it is worse. It is a campaign of pure terror whose only strategic goal is more terror. There is no strategy other than to break people.

Read the whole article.

BREAKING🚨 This 16-year-old boy was beaten bloody & given a serious head injury by ICE for merely video taping! I'm sure just like in the story below about Alberto Mondragon who's skull they fractured in 8 places & Alex Pretti who they shot in cold blood, they will lie about this, too! ABOLISH ICE!

MAGA is a fascist pedophile death cult. MAGA is the pedophile ring. #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

Lol yeah let's keep this shit going

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley are amazing in #wonderman which is, forgive me, a wonderful show. The former now has the distinction of being incredible in the best DC show (HBO's Watchmen) and one of Marvel's most creative & entertaining shows.

CNN in Minneapolis: We are seeing thousands and thousands of people, we've been standing on the corner here for the past ten minutes. This this crowd has not let up. It's just continuous.

Let's keep funding the government because he's gonna do even worse shit now because nothing happened to anyone after the killing of Good and Pretti and now he's saying everyone liked it. Surely not ominous

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Alison Luchs, who has worked at the National Gallery of Art for 47 years, agreed to learn Gen Z slang and make videos because she wanted to raise interest in the museum’s art. She never expected to slay. https://wapo.st/45BXc3S

The next time they tell you we can’t afford universal healthcare or a UBI, remind them that we can magically pull money out of our asses for wars and fascism.

Minnesota based Independent Journalist GEORGIA FORT has been arrested for filming a protest of the church pastor that works as an ICE manager. SPREAD THE WORD! Georgia has been doing outstanding reporting from ground zero!

MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!” So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it (H/T longtimehistory)

College money well spent and needed. Rice students created an interactive map exposing ICE raids across the country as they're unfolding. Soon it will be a map of ICE raids and ICE murders. Keep reminding Schumer and Dems.

ReedPop Attempts to Clarify its dealings with ICE

Anyway, you can give $5 tax deductible to PBS for their app and get Ken Burns Revolutionary War doc along with Lupita and Sandra Oh in Twelfth Night and not pollute all of Memphis while you’re watching it.

"I'm coming to Boston and I'm bringing hell with me." --Homan in February "Do I expect violence to escalate? Absolutely." -- Tom Homan in March "I actually thought about getting up and throwing that man a beating right there in the middle of the room" -- Homan in July, referring to a D congressman

I wrote about how in a December email to me, RFK Jr.'s HHS insisted the current South Carolina measles outbreak wouldn't get that bad—and how it has since snowballed into the biggest US outbreak since measles was eliminated. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Staff at a Twin Cities yarn store put together a pattern for a red knit “Melt the ICE” hat inspired by the Norwegian resistance. They thought they would attract 10 people to a weekly knit-along. They’ve sold 70,000 copies, raising more than $250k for immigrant aid groups.

WTF? Gmail is giving me an AI summary of my email conversations. ENOUGH. Time to ditch it. Anyone have Fastmail and can speak on it?

The murders will continue until submissiveness improves

So, incredibly, the White House has chosen to escalate in blue Minnesota and retreat in Maine to protect a vulnerable GOP Senator. It's confirmation that Trump-Vance-Miller view ICE as a partisan govt-backed militia to attack blue America while propping up their regime. 1/

They stole his Spidey backpack.

It's not always the case that a creator who produces work you love turns out to be a person you admire. Thank you to the Boss. This song brought me to tears.

Yes, I still keep writing. The story in this one is based on Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning's epic romance, partially bcz there isn't enough disability rep in romance. www.amazon.com/dp/B0GK5H1HYJ

The FBI executed a search warrant in Fulton County today because it's a majority African-American county and the Trump regime is made up of white nationalists eager to prove minorities cheat at elections so they can justify voter suppression and steal the 2026 elections

my cousin in Denmark emailed me about this & said he wished Americans knew about this shameful reaction from the US embassy. Danish veterans placed Danish flags w/ the names of the fallen at the US embassy & the embassy... removed them. Denmark lost the most soldiers per capita in Afghanistan
