Did you ever see a more dapper dove? #HarrisBirdCam 🪶 02.25.2026

The shit just keeps on coming

The mourning dove with the good hair is back at the #HarrisBirdCam 🪶 02.21.2026

All day rotation at the #HarrisBirdCam 🪶 Red breasted nuthatch grabs a peanut. Next up is a house finch for sunflower seeds. He’s interrupted by an eager mourning dove member of the clean up crew.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

If they’re losing the “I’m not political but I love America” guys in Callaway hats…

Today is the 6th anniversary of the start of our YouTube livestream!!! Thanks to the #coralcitycamera we can enjoy stoplight parrotfish making funny faces for us while a manatee swims behind it. We never dreamed we’d have a healthy thicket of staghorn corals through hot and cold, but here we are!

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

We believe there are few investigations that deserve more sunlight and public scrutiny than this one, in which two masked agents fired 10 shots at Alex Pretti as he lay on the ground after being pepper-sprayed. Read our full story: https://propub.li/4qUNfXH

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

There’s no reforming this. Abolishing is the MINIMUM. May @schumer.senate.gov face the wrath of all he has failed.

“Don’t mess with Minnesota Standing shoulder to shoulder Got a North Star to guide us And our neighbors beside us You won’t break our love” 🎶 🥹 ❤️‍🩹 Wookiefoot recorded a Minnesota song ❤️ 🔊 wookiefoot.com/track/465257...

Counsel for civil rights lawyer Nekima Levy Armstrong, lead defendant in the St. Paul church protest case, notified the court of the White House’s deepfake image of his client. It’s evidence the government’s “nakedly obvious bad faith.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Anne Frank likely died in a typhus epidemic that spread through the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp History rhymes, it rhymes Close the camps, set fire to the prisons

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

They left an elderly US citizen on her way to pay her rent with a torn rotator cuff and a concussion. This was in Salem, Oregon. Absolutely no one should vote to fund these lawless thugs.

Makes me wonder if the only people the local cops will protect are those with blue lines in their cars. When will people learn… Same wolves. Different sheepskin.

Again.

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

I saw it too:

A little girl in Portland, OR after being tear gassed by ICE. what the actual fuck.

100% this Never forget: They are ALL the same wolves. Some wear different sheepskin.

I don't like to talk about stories before they are fully reported, but I am writing on ICE in a Minnesota town that isn't Minneapolis. However bad you think it is, it is worse. It is a campaign of pure terror whose only strategic goal is more terror. There is no strategy other than to break people.

I may have a stroke. Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.” A PROTESTant. I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

So good

Yall. Every single one of these people are Black

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning I was sent this video of agents at her door:

The parents of Alex Pretti have retained a former federal prosecutor who helped Minnesota's attorney general convict the police officer who kneeled on George Floyd's neck of murder. https://to.pbs.org/3ZA2HfU

My Walgreens says my refill is ready for pick up. I’m waiting for my other meds to be filled before getting it. Maybe I should get it now before it’s too late?? I’m in MO.

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

look, as an Iranian American I can safely say that no one really cares about kidnapping and hostage taking at foreign embassies and it is not something that countries hold long grudges about - so I think this will quickly pass.

Uh. So ICE just technically tried to invade Ecuador. Cool new international incident dropping.

Reminder that, in recent days, children have rallied and protested for their freedom inside an ICE detention center where water has been described as "putrid" and meals reportedly contain “bugs,” dirt, and debris. This is where the kidnapped 5-year-old Liam Ramos is being held.

“The people of Minnesota have forced the Trump administration into a strategic retreat—one inflicted not as rioters or insurgents, but as neighbors.” This sentence from @adamserwer.bsky.social made me unexpectedly get choked up. It’s weird what does that these days. But still …

NEW: A Texas county medical examiner found that Geraldo Lunas Campos was choked to death by a guard while he was held in ICE custody earlier this month. Geraldo is the sixth person to die in ICE detention this year.

This was an uphill battle for the state of Minnesota — but Pam Bondi's letter may have turned it into a viable one, if not today, down the line. Time will tell. 🔽
