After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.

Nanoplastics Amplify Toxicity of Tire Chemicals in Water https://www.europesays.com/2735849/ Kaleigh Harrison For years, micro- and nanoplastics have been viewed as more of an aesthetic and environmental nuisance…

MN AG Keith Ellison is working to stop ICE from destroying evidence and blocking state investigators from the scene where federal agents killed Alex Pretti. Let that sink in: The agency that executed Alex Pretti then tried to bar the state from even investigating.

Three shootings by ICE and other federal immigration agents have taken place in Minneapolis this January, including the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. You can find all of our reporting in one place here:

The Phillips neighborhoods are being targeted because it has the highest percent of residents who are not US Citizens. This fund will help feed, provide basic necessities and allow our immigrant neighbors to stay housed for 65+ families (and counting). gofund.me/4eaa6ea75

Excellent investigative coverage by @truthout.org as usual. Next up, have have actual police arrested any of these #ICE criminals or protected & served their communities from any of them? In Minneapolis & Minnesota, Frey & Walz have been useless talking heads pretending to care. #NotMeUs #MNleg

You've seen it in videos from Minneapolis. We talked to an expert to find out more.

I am not exaggerating when I say that without the staff at HCMC, I likely would have died last September. The care and compassion I received from so many of the staff, from surgeons to nurses to PT to the people bringing my food, was amazing. That ICE is terrorizing them is appalling.

These 10 companies stand to rake in $1 billion by 2027 by helping ICE track down and round up immigrants. Cashing in on cruelty.

I was just denied access to the ICE processing center at the Whipple Building. Members of Congress have a legal right and constitutional responsibility to conduct oversight where people are being detained. The public deserves to know what is taking place in ICE facilities.

Some Somalis who voted for Trump are rethinking their alignment with the Republican Party after the president’s targeted attacks on their community.

“Highly concentrated corporate wealth and economic inequality is a scourge on our city and society. Corporations should pay their fair share to support the public good. We’ve seen why this is necessary throughout history — over and over again.” @inthesetimes.com inthesetimes.com/article/bran...

When ProPublica’s @gingerthompson.bsky.social began talking to people in Albany, GA, she didn’t expect that they would be so fearful to criticize the town’s sole hospital on the record — or how powerless they were to hold that hospital to account. Read our 5-part "Sick in a Hospital Town" series:

Health insurers are jacking up premiums while raking in billions in profits. Expiring ACA subsidies will saddle millions of Americans with massive monthly premium increases. Is it any wonder that 63% of Americans now support Medicare for All?

Progressives are so desperate for a replacement for Gov. Timmy Walz that some are suggesting Dean Phillips. He doesn't seem to fear DNC & DFL leadership attacks, buy why should any progressive Governor? At a minimum, we need someone who checks off these 10: robertreich.substack.com/p/what-democ...

Astoria, Oregon: On December 1st, Oregon’s oldest city made history, using Score Then Automatic Runoff "STAR" Voting to fill a recently vacated seat on their City Council.

Osita Nwanevu’s “The Right of the People” argues that we need to go back to basics and center the establishment of a genuine democracy in our politics. @hookjan.bsky.social‬ reviews Nwanevu for the Prospect’s August 2025 issue:

A great virtue of Osita Nwanevu’s new book, "The Right of the People," is that it aims to define democracy in a precise and rigorous way so that it can become clear what it is and isn’t, at least by his lights.

Don’t lie, Lisa. I’ve got receipts.

After rumors that Trump could be planning Oregon’s first ICE detention facility in Newport, hundreds of Oregonians turned out to voice unanimous opposition to the facility.

Congrats to the new mayor of Jersey City — James Solomon — in tonight's runoff election! As a councilmember, he led the fight for affordable housing, renter protections, public transit, sustainability, and transparency. Tonight’s victory is a win for the people!

Speaking outside a store in Brooklyn, Mamdani said New York is a “union town,” and vowed to continue joining pickets even after he is sworn in as mayor on January 1. Starbucks workers at unionized stores launched an open-ended strike November 13 accusing the company of unfair labor practices.

Bernie Sanders: Doctors are graduating $500,000 in debt, which is why my legislation will make medical, nursing and dentist school tuition free.

Sen Bernie Sanders in a CNN town hall spoke about the lack of college affordability. “70, 80 years ago in this country, if you went to a public college or university, you know what your tuition was? Zero.”

Important to recognize that this is a small town in CD6, which is best known for voting for Trump and Trump-like Republicans the last 2+ decades, Bachmann & Emmer. Corruption and abuse of power is to be expected there. If you want power over government there, vote progressive. #OurRevolution #DFL

Transgender Day of Remembrance is Thursday. Queer community members say the remembrance events carry a different weight this year as changes are introduced in other states — and on the federal level — designed to attack transgender rights.

Across the country, Starbucks workers are on an Unfair Labor Practice strike for a fair first contract, and I know which side I’m on. Baristas make Starbucks an extraordinarily wealthy company. They are entitled to their fair share of that wealth and to benefits and fair treatment on the job.
