The woman who said she was autistic as ICE dragged out of her car is named Aliya Rahman via this statement: "Masked agents dragged me from my car and bound me like an animal, even after I told them that I was disabled." It happened two blocks from where Jonathan Ross shot Renee Good.

I wrote about how MLK Day was won, how Stevie Wonder helped to make it happen, and how King's legacy is being undermined today. capitalbnews.org/stevie-wonde...

oh honeys oh honeys oh honeys!!!!!!

Thinking of a few Malcolm x speeches as they tell people getting kidnapped in the streets by masked thugs to ‘remain calm’

Saint Paul schools will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for optional online learning. I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.

If ever there was something that demands faster action to shutter an agency, surely it's the routine abductions, abuse, murder, trauma, and Kavanaugh stops. Absurd that the regime believes it has any moral authority to shame Iran as it regularly violates its own Constitution

Hey y’all! REMINDER: I am LEGALLY OBLIGATED to award at least one scholarship to a Louisiana woman. And no Louisiana women have applied. This happens every year where we have to beg women in my own state to apply and Idk why. We’re in our 6th cycle! Come get this money! ThurmanPerryFoundation.org

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

the democrats are right we should focus on kitchen table issues. for example there is a guy at my kitchen table who wants to shoot me in the face with a gun

Breaking NYT: The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter. The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status. That is a war crime called "perfidy."

Another immigrant, Luis Gustavo Nuñez Cazares, died in ICE custody in Conroe, Texas. The cause was heart failure. Rest in peace, Luis.

This feels very staid and also like a huge holy shit moment.

CALL ON THE MINNESOTA NATIONAL GUARD NOW!!!! ICE is currently going door to door with weapons drawn in St. Paul, Minnesota!

Please understand this is happening in literally dozens of locations around the city simultaneously. If an ICE vehicle stops, community members materialize in seconds and do everything they can to stop the kidnappings. We are under siege and using every tool to fight back.

BREAKING REPORTS: Ice has blocked off an entire street and is going door to door in Minneapolis. This has been also reported by @veronicadelacruztv.bsky.social ICE is not meant to be an occupying army! We demand #ICEOUTforGood!

Another person to help re: Mpls

Sharing this elegy for Renee Nicole Good, from Minneapolis poet Danez Smith: “The role of us poets is to witness the world…With attention as our tool and duty, we turn to grief, to love, to the natural world around us, to our own lives, and to our countries.” www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/feat...

For 248 years the streets of America didn’t feature a roving masked federal kidnapping squad that might send you a Central American death camp or just murder you themselves, but getting rid of it now is some impossible lefty fantasy that professional Democrats lamentably must struggle against.

The derisive tone when the right says “poet” in relation to Renee Good is pretty telling of the world of ugliness they wish to live in.

Minnesota investigators said the Trump administration has barred it them from taking part in the investigation into yesterday’s ICE killing

Renee Nicole Good was 37. She was murdered by an ICE agent in the street in broad daylight. What really happened to her will not be forgotten, minimized, or ignored.

Detroit swore in its first Black woman as Mayor today and there was no national or global coverage of it.

163 years ago in Mankato, 38 Dakota men were hung in the largest mass execution in our nation’s history. I’m grateful to the riders who continue to remind us the importance of fighting for accountability and healing for the Dakota people. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/1...

If releasing the Epstein files would end your presidency, then your presidency must end. It’s that simple.

It’s a strange situation when we’ve established the POTUS is a criminal, we’re just trying to find a crime his party wouldn’t be okay with.

They’re wearing masks so they can’t be prosecuted later. As long as they think they can’t be prosecuted, their crimes will intensify. They will torture, starve and kill, as they have already, on greater and greater scale. Signed, someone who’s covered the unaccountable War on Terror for 23 years.

Thank you Congressman Neguse for laying it plain.

Every mention of SNAP being frozen should include this simple fact: TRUMP is CHOOSING TO CANCEL FOOD ASSISTANCE. There are literally emergency dollars available to keep SNAP funded.

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

My book comes out today! It’s sad and funny and a little spooky and a lot mysterious and very weird, and you can buy it wherever fine books are sold in indie stores bookshop.org/p/books/happ...

Abolish ICE. If you work for ICE, quit right now.

Mamdani talking lucidly and passionately about trans rights and history in a video that should frankly shame every politician who has hemmed and hawed and triangulated and said, "Well, but sports..." It's not that hard to tell the truth and stand for what's right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEvV...

If you're watching the situation in Chicago from afar & want to help, on the off chance you have spare $$, you can give to the Midwest Immigrant Bond Fund, which posts "bond for individuals held in the custody of ICE w ties to IL, IN, KY & WI who cannot afford to pay" www.mibfc.org/helpusgrow

And now for a report from the hellish, war-zone that is Portland

This very very very bad. I cannot stress this enough. I said that they crossed the Rubicon with arresting Ras Baraka several months ago. This is very bad and portends more bad things for regular people.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov
