The Governors of the free States of America, particularly Democratic states, need to hold a summit to create a deliberative body and as a framework for collective action against those who would wage war against those states

The military has a duty and an oath to defend the Constitution. Honor it.

It'd be far more interesting to hear how someone who uses a wheelchair pushes their body to its limit or someone who didn't have the chance to learn a trade or get a degree manages to push their mind to its limit to feed their family while managing their despair than to read about self-indulgence.

"Everyone wants to know. So here it is". -Melania Trump No lady, nobody wants to know. You know what they want to know? When you’re dead. That’s what they want to know. Sorry. www.yahoo.com/entertainmen...

Dudes, wtf are we living through? www.newsweek.com/american-hum...

"Neighbors in neon vests dot the neighborhood... Information-sharing networks have been built. Residents have connected with non-profits and churches to deliver food to people who are locked in their homes out of fear. Resistance signs are everywhere..." www.liberalcurrents.com/so-hows-the-...

Our democratic leaders seem to have quietly accepted a death quota. And I don’t think they’re going to do much of anything until that quota is met. Stay safe comrades…

Eric Swalwell answering a question on how the next governor of California will protect Californians from ICE. “They're going to lose their immunity. They're not going to be able to drive. I will take your driver's license. Good luck walking to work, assholes.”

If you wanna understand how hunger in Africa is man-made and a product of western capitalism, white supremacy, and imperialism, watch this video. "They tell you that the best chocolates come from Switzerland. How many cocoa farms does Switzerland have?"

The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

What is the Democrats messaging to people heading into midterms? Don’t escalate, repress your emotions, keep donating and try not to get shot?

Everyone with authority must speak out now against Trump's depravity and lawlessness. Every Democratic leader. Every university, professional association, charity, and foundation head. Every CEO. Every religious leader. If they don't, history will condemn their cowardice and complicity.

Fun fact: Every other developed nation guarantees healthcare. The “richest country” makes you use GoFundMe to afford life-saving care. We can and must do better.

Terribly uncanny how relevant this is to today.

✅ More than 80 Members Signed On ✅ More than 20,500 letters sent to Congress Join the growing number of Americans telling their representatives to impeach Kristi Noem:

Important work here from the NYT. Ross wasn’t run over. He dropped his cell phone, which he had shifted to his left hand to draw his weapon. And then he shot and killed a person with the gun in his right hand. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/v...

I guess we’re at the point of the authoritarian dictatorship where multiple people are shot… daily… by federal *MASKED* police, in the name of the government It’s difficult to say our democracy is as it was before this authoritarian… domestically

ICE and Border Patrol agents must be reined in. Here is one thing we can do right now. Please read and share. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/americas-gestapo

“ICE agents, get out now because historically, this ends with you hanging from a lamppost and your body paraded through the streets.” - the …we rate dogs guy

People: They’re shooting moms in the face while filming. They’re gassing parents holding their babies. They’re dragging teachers out of schools and shooting into cars. They’re terrorizing our communities!! Rep. Pete Aguilar: “I don’t think abolishing ICE is the right way to react. We can reform.”

I really don't see why we're missing the obvious - if we "all" sustained a nationwide strike/boycott until he resigns - then he'll have no choice. The ATC strike alone almost crippled us. This country is about money and he ain't worth it. It'll be very painful, but better than more violence.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities This is exactly the opposite. Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

the first Concentration Camps built by the Germans were for German dissenters

It is my opinion that sworm military at this point has a positive duty to arrest this "president" for his many crimes. I am not expecting any to honor their oath.

Seeing Zohran instantly getting a bunch of shit done in like a week makes you realize that politicians could always do that on some level if they wanted it bad enough and very few of them actually do.

Under Trump's watch, a DHS agent shot a protestor in the face with a non-lethal round at close range, fractured his skull, and then dragged him around as he choked and bled. He is now permanently blind in his left eye.

A lot of very smart people have bad lives because they: • overthink • absorb everyone else’s feelings • see too much • care too much • get punished for having morals • don’t have the narcissism required to climb bullshit ladders

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

The translation for the position these morons have is "Don't use a dime of social assistance, no matter how dire your situation, so our corrupt politicians can afford to get more children to rape."

when you take money out of your savings account to buy a car, that’s not your bank helping you. The same principle applies with any form of "government assistance", which is something we all pay into.

"It was not Hitler or Himmler who abducted me, beat me and shot my family. It was the shoemaker, the milkman, the neighbor, who received a uniform and then believed they were the master race.” –Karl Stojka, Auschwitz survivor

Where is the business community and corporate leaders of Minnesota based companies in speaking up? Why aren't the big law firms sending lawyers to represent the people being attacked? We are not at the end of this authoritarianism, we are at the beginning. And, sadly, we are on our own.

I have always loved this scene in the Maltese Falcon with the great Sydney Greenstreet. youtu.be/IvVuNkE-LMw

Yes, Congress was supposed to protect us. Congress is too corrupt to protect us. open.substack.com/pub/mrnobody...

Just a screenshot from one of the best films ever made (M, 1931).

Life in the USA is basically: a small number of disordered people with power causing mass death while normal people get pressured to “be civil.” It’s obscene, no? I think I’m about done. At this point anything they want me to do gives me a, MAKE ME, feeling.

Why would I pay taxes that are gonna be used to terrorize me and my community?

We all know that conservatives are cruel heartless people, as shown by their voting, their propaganda and how they cheer on unpovoked violence. What is noteworthy is that they are confused by people having compassion or empathy for strangers. They can't understand being a good person.

Rage posting definitely is a thing. I’ve been told that’s me. The sad thing is that most Americans don’t want anything to do with politics. They won’t get involved because it’s all negative propaganda, either way. I’m in liberal CA, and haven’t had one political conversation. Reality is scary.

Every 👏🏽 Blue 👏🏽 State

Is is… Regime not administration Dictator not president Secret Police not ICE Lies not differing opinions Kidnapping not arresting Murder not shooting
