There is no "normal" to go back to. Only what we do next.

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

Please support Michael de Adder, who does great work:

Garcia: Every American should be outraged by what happened in Minneapolis. The fact that there’s going to be no accountability—or that the DOJ wants to investigate it themselves—is insane. They can’t be trusted to investigate anything.

This is exactly what I told someone yesterday. Even if I spot you the first shot (I shouldn’t, but let’s go with that), shots 2 and 3 were inexcusable and this officer will lose his case if it ever goes to court.

“'The guy, I’m telling him like, "Please step off the school grounds," and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he knocked me down,' an official at Roosevelt High School said. 'They don’t care. They’re just animals. I’ve never seen people behave like this.'"

A woman is dead in Minneapolis after ICE agents opened fire. I don’t need to be a use-of-force expert to say this plainly: she did not need to be shot. And no fair investigation is coming from the same system that wanted this confrontation in the first place. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Posts may be a bit more sporadic from me today as my kids are home from school because my city is being brutalized by the federal government to the extent that it's unsafe for schools to be open

An official from Roosevelt High School in Minneapolis told MPR News that armed U.S. Border Patrol goons came onto school property during dismissal Wednesday and began tackling people; they handcuffed two staff members and released chemical weapons on bystanders.

Is Steve Grove the ICE agent that shot Renee Nicole Miller three times?

Right now it should be absolutely clear why Canadians didn't travel to Minneapolis to watch IIHF World Junior hockey. That is why the stands weren't full.

Wow

The same people who spent yesterday, and the past five years, insisting a Black police officer who shot an insurrectionist breaking into the Capitol should be prosecuted are today bending over backwards to defend an ICE agent who shot a woman in her car in cold blood. Scum.

This was Border Chief Gregory Bovino’s face moments after the murder of Renee Good, a mother of three. Absolutely abhorrent levels of evil.

The ship headed for Russia has Gold reserves for Putin. Trump acts tough, gives in to let the delivery happen. Then he gets a cut. It just business....

TDS is the biggest load of gaslighting bullshit I've ever heard. Trump acts like a tyrant/toddler/fascist/lunatic and it's everyone else with the problem if they don't go along? Get the fuck out of here with that. It's a tactic that only works if we accept it. HE is fucked up, not us.

“Republicans told the truth then, why won’t they now?”

Tim Walz is a decent man who is willing to sacrifice his political ambitions for the good of the citizens of his state. We need more men like him. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/06/u...

Well, there you are. 🤷‍♀️

Canada knows that if Greenland falls we are next. You can bet that Canada will be putting troops on the ground if Denmark issues Article IV of the NATO charter.

🇺🇸 The January 6th insurrection as well as September 11th are the two most significant acts of domestic as well as foreign terrorism perpetrated on American people in modern history. 🗽

Lemme guess, Florida State University?

The President of the United States today.

Sickening — the White House has put up a site about 1/6 painting himself as a hero and Pelosi, The Capitol Police, and Mike Pence as the villains. An attempt to rewrite history before our eyes. www.whitehouse.gov/j6/

Hilton Hotels doubles-down on their support for the American Gestapo. When looking for a hotel, there are *plenty* of other choices.

Trump: We’ll get those political prisoners released in Venezuela, but first, oil!

Never forget. 🇺🇸

.@PabloReports: What do you make of the White House blaming the police for the violence on January 6th? McGovern: That’s offensive. What kind of sick human being would say that? I was here that day.

Prophetic. Probably right, but the timeline might be off, or it may be Just Dance Vance pulling the trigger.

.@PabloReports: What do you make of the White House blaming the police for what happened on January 6th? Lieu: The White House’s statement is batshit crazy.

America is now a fascist, shit hole country run by pedophiles, con-men, cowards, racists, rapists, liars, cheats, thieves & IDIOTS… Prove me wrong.

“No room at the Inn” is a biblical reference about immigrants (Jesus’ parents) being turned away. Not the government. Way to go, Hilton! The 3rd Amendment protects private entities from having to house the government.

Any Jared Kushner sightings in Venezuela yet scoping out the beachfront areas?

Guillermo del Toro tells young directors they should not listen when “people tell you art is not important,” because that is “always a prelude to fascism.” variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Greed will destroy the world and its inhabitants. Act like you know this.
