I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

Reported from San Antonio area news -- There's a #Measles outbreak at the #Dilley detention center where #LiamRamos was being held. #LiamConejoRamos is back home but there are still 400 other children (1200 total detainees) still at the facility. #MedSky #IDSky www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...

Following the violent assault of a disabled woman by ICE last week, and the many reports of abuses of people with disabilities in their concentration camps, it’s worth rereading this primer on Disability Criminalisation from the Center for Racial and Disability Justice

This entire thread is important. Exactly the movement analysis and reporting that our media will never do. Watch ICE, denounce fascism all you like - we’ll never build power if we don’t learn how. The Minnesotans aren’t simply “nice.” They are deeply organized.

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

ICE has kidnapped another Indigenous person in Minneapolis. This is the fifth member of the Očhéthi Šakówinnto be taken this month. Statement from Standing Rock:

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

No Kings mass call Tomorrow 8-9PM EST www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

"According to reporting by The Associated Press, bystanders at the scene started screaming at federal officers, calling them "cowards." In response, an unnamed officer allegedly walked away from the crowd, mockingly yelling, "boo hoo," the AP reported." www.cbc.ca/news/world/l...

All those people downtown yesterday, no ICE involvement, and not one incident. ICE shows up in a neighborhood and now another Minnesotan is dead. It's pretty obvious who the violent outside agitators are.

“There’s no point to calling because my senators already agree with me” “There’s no point to calling because my senators won’t listen” These are both false information and you should correct and/or block anyone circulating them. Your calls are tallied and create support and/or real pressure.

Call even if you think they are not going to listen to you Mine never do but I know the staff struggle emotionally with what I say to them and I plan to wear them down bsky.app/profile/blue...

Call. Your. Senators. Right. Fucking. Now. It’s ok if your voice shakes while you leave the voice mail. If you cry. If you cuss. If you’re inarticulate. Just get the message across. bsky.app/profile/jaso...

Tell your Senators to strip DHS out of the bill before they vote yes this week or vote no entirely bsky.app/profile/chan...

We are calling our senators right now and demanding that they vote no on the omnibus with DHS funding We are explicitly mentioning ICE’s murder in cold blood of a man on the streets of Minneapolis this morning

TW: Medical neglect, severe #ME/CFS An NHS hospital has withdrawn vital medication from a severe ME patient that enables her to tolerate food and fluids. She is now showing signs of dehydration following the removal of her IV fluids.

The StarTribune live blog is paywall free: - The man shot by federal agents this morning has died - Several witnesses have already been transported to the Whipple building. - ICE attempted to order local police from the scene, but O’Hara refused, sources said. www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi...

With no warning, feds just gassed people.

At 26th and Nicolett in Minneapolis this morning— Feds have just shot another person in the streets. Furious community members are gathering. State police and conservation cops here in front of ~50 federal agents.

At the very least every Democratic officeholder or candidate should be calling for the impeachment and/or arrest of Noem, Homan, and Bovino. Bare minimum.

Witnesses are being taken to Whipple. From a lawyer friend: “They’re trying to keep local PD and BCA from getting statements and confiscating any phones with video.”

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

Man shot by federal agents has died, police chief says www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi...

TODAY, Friday January 23rd, 2026: We are ALL residents of Minnesota. We ALL want #ICE_OutForGOOD 🚫 🧊 Also: #ICE_OUT4ReneeGood 💔

Research ties long #COVID in kids to chronic school absenteeism, learning problems Long COVID was also linked to a higher prevalence of anxiety and depression. www.cidrap.umn.edu/c...

“Unfortunately, in too many medical appointments I’ve had medical assistants, nurses and even doctors who have said. ‘You don’t need to wear that currently,’ which is so disappointing,” said Melinda Lipscomb ... bed-bound with severe ME/CFS, a complex disease that can be triggered by infection.

🚨Nevra is still dangerously ill and trying to coordinate an emergency hospitalization as per doctor's orders. If you can, please donate via PayPal (paypal.me/SaveLizNevra) or GoFundMe (gofundme.com/f/save-nevra) to help afford lifesaving medical care. 🚨

Starting the year with a hellacious crash. #severeME just reminding me who's boss...

Invading Venezuela-after blowing up defenseless shipwrecked men-and threatening to steal their oil while installing a puppet government ICE shooting Renee Good Delaying the release of the Epstein files And now extorting Jerome Powell to get the Fed to cut interest rates All illegal All Trump

Random thoughts: Turn to doctors for vaccine advice. Government health is now partisan-fueled, not patient-driven. Think hard about what you read & where you read it. There’s lots of complicity in the legacy media. Never forget it. Believe nothing the DJT regime says w/o checking it. Nothing.

We don't have the disability education infrastructure to support a growing number of kids who are going to be disabled because their parents didn't get them vaccines against illnesses that can lead to the development of disabilities.

COVID-19 Is Still Killing a Disturbing Number of Americans, Study Finds. "Between 2022 and 2024, COVID-19 killed roughly 100,000 Americans annually, new research by CDC scientists shows" gizmodo.com/covid-19-is-...

Isn't it odd that the United States has enough money to suddenly run Venezuela, but not enough to run our own country? There is always cash in the piggy bank for bombs to kill people, but never for healthcare to keep them alive.

This is my second Watergate-a-day post today, so we might have to change the name.

attacking cancer research, destroying farm economies...most fascist regimes attempt to shore up support among their supporters by harming outgroups and *helping ingroups*. Trump just seems determined to harm everyone.

the daycare attack is another example of the way that Trump seems determined to make Americans suffer pain for the crime of existing—including Americans who may well have voted for him, or might well vote for him, or might be considered possible supporters. 1

I have been participating in the #RECOVERSleep trial since the beginning of November. I qualified for the med arm, but of course don't officially know if I have the med or placebo. While still severe/very severe, I have had improvement in cognitive ability and have days with useable hour(s). 1/
