A public health giant has passed. “Among public health professionals, Dr. Foege was almost without peer… In 2012, President Barack Obama awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest honor given to a civilian.”

This is Minneapolis: My neighbors are so desperate for food that delivered boxes of food are being picked up by other (presumably hungry apartment neighbors) before the intended recipient can open their door & take it inside. Folks are at risk of eviction bc they haven't been able to work. 1/3

"WHAT ARE WE? A BUNCH OF *WHITE* PEOPLE??"

My friend wrote this about Alex. She was his last nursing student. He taught her lessons we all need right now.

The war always comes home.

And what is happening inside ICE detention centers? 404 Media also learned that the federal government claimed that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.

From a FB post about Alex Pretti:

He spent decades bringing the religious right to power. Now he's marching to undo it. Rev. Rob Schenck spent decades helping build the Religious Right—commingling church and state to advance conservative causes. Now, he says he must confront the damage he helped cause.

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

The National Basketball Players Association has released a statement on the killings in Minneapolis: “Following the news of yet another fatal shooting in Minneapolis, a city that has been on the forefront of fight against injustices, NBA players can no longer remain silent”

First they came for the Somalis and I did not speak out because I was not Somali

if you're on bsky you are officially too old to lift the snow shovel above your waist!!! even if you're in incredible shape, you can trigger a heart attack that way. push it out of the way instead of lifting! if you want to make train or construction noises if you want, I won't tell anyone

At the Alex Pretti memorial this afternoon, people are unfurling four very large banners. They read, "How many more will ICE murder? How many more funerals? How many more...how many more?"

Crazy how no one who works for ICE has ever created anything of beauty or value in their whole lives.

the people in the quote posts turning this into a khive support group... girl you missed the point. it flew right past you

All the anti-war and anti-occupation protestors were right. All the far leftists were right. All the “woke scolds” and your friend who’s “too woke” were right. They were somehow even more right than they may have realized at the time. But really, it was always obvious they were right.

Newsmax fabricated a quote from me about my father Richard Zimmer today. They never contacted me. It's not just outrageous but funny. He was talented in many ways, but most definitely not at golf or cooking or craftsmanship. www.newsmax.com/john-gizzi/z...

On the 17th of January, 1961, the US, UK and Belgium assassinated Patrice Lumumba, the first democratically elected leader of the Republic of Congo, because he sought to restore national control over the country's mineral reserves. Remember Lumumba!

Never forget that the reason they are so convinced you’re all getting paid is that they are all getting paid.

Wild to watch them all admit the 2A is only for Trump supporters

Anyway, I invite AltNPS and everyone else to share this list of Twin Cities-area organizations, food distribution networks, and mutual aid links. It's got everything. From legal aid links to a GoFundMe for Circulo Childcare Center in Minneapolis, they could all use some love. Thank you!

It's 2026, please stop following and reposting viral "resistance" accounts that do absolutely nothing and instead follow people who offer real, palpable steps on how to help your friends and neighbors. Here's a good starter pack via @gregpak.net go.bsky.app/6DoVMhY

Everyone wants doctors to move freely between provinces. Here’s why it doesn’t much happen. One Quebec doctor hoped to practice in rural Ontario but the authorization process was onerous that he gave up, by Nadin Gilroy www.thestar.com/news/insight... via @thestar.com

i think about this picture of fred shuttlesworth looking at his bombed out house every day because it is in my classroom and so i see it five times a week. tired and defiant. a face that says well, on we go

if they’ll shoot an ICU nurse point blank what’s happening inside the detention centers

If I’m killed in the streets, please do not call for peace. Burn it all down. All. Of. It. I would not want peace. If anyone claims I’d want peace, beat that mfer ass first.

If you need something positive to do to help your community right now that will cost nothing but time, go give blood. Someone is always in need. (A family member's life was saved by donated blood.) For a list of blood donation centers & blood drives within 20 miles of your zip code, search AABB:

YouGov is out with a new poll after ICE killed another person in Minnesota today. Abolishing ICE is now +5 among all adults, and **+12 among independents** substack.com/@gelliottmor...

I keep thinking about this fact that his last words were are you okay and hers were I'm not mad at you and it feels like a weird coincidence but it's just a reflection of the fact that the people who are coming out to take care of their neighbors are good and the people who are after them are bad

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

By our count, the Trump administration committed 56 new cruelties, collusions, corruptions, and crimes in December 2025. #LestWeForget

The whole interview is worth it

This is how you know they haven't broken the spirit of the oppressed yet. When you've got people locked in a concentration camp, living in squalid conditions, and they still have the ability to resist. I don't have words to express the level of courage.

I mean it’s true that there are “paid agitators” in Minneapolis. There are 3000 of them and they’ve assassinated two people.

it is not immigration enforcement, or an immigration crackdown, or even law enforcement (not to say comparisons aren't valid!) because they aren't enforcing laws, immigration or otherwise. They are intimidating and terrorizing.

Infinite respect to Woke Hoth Guy, who freestyled a two-minute Federalist paper.

This is why I object to the framing of "good person who didn't deserve to be shot in the street" because it positions the problem as who was shot not that the shooting happened at all. ICE has shot almost 100 people since 2015, and even if we only count fatalities 31 people have died from shootings

If you are running for president you should make clear you’re gonna send Greg Bovino to prison

From the NY Post. You know they are really scrambling when they are running "The gun was no angel" stories.

Canadians, remember, these people are already here in Canada. They are already organizing. The conditions for their organization and growth have been fostered not only by the US regime, but by decades and decades of Liberal and Conservative erosion of the relationship between government and society.

This year, the Timbit turns 50 years old. It is estimated that Canadians have eaten enough Timbits to go to the Moon and back five times over the past half century. But what is the history of the Timbit? This is the story. 🧵 1/6
