High school students marching against ICE this afternoon in Detroit, Michigan

DOJ has since killed this link. This is what was there:

Actually devastated by this :(

The City’s Budget is our future. And you deserve to know how it works.

I'm starting to think the Trumpist mastery of propaganda is failing them. The DHS agents posing this way makes it look like they're ashamed of themselves.

NEW: Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old who ICE agents in Minneapolis nabbed last week and shipped off to a Texas detention facility with his dad, is now in poor health, his school superintendent told me today www.huffpost.com/entry/liam-c...

Attention: @schumer.senate.gov For ONCE in your milquetoast life, do what Mitch McConnell would do.

-vote out every Republican -boycott Republican aligned businesses imagine what you would do if you lived in 1933 Germany and then do that

Shoutout to Speaker Jeffries and these 7 Dems, especially the plucky little bible thumper Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, for voting to give ICE more money to gun down American citizens in the streets. Way to go, everybody! I bet Chuck and Senate Dems can top that!

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Paramilitary secret police doing war cosplay on the streets of an American city.

I'm on site where a federal agent shot a Minneapolis man this morning. It's bad. Dozens of federal agents are facing off with hundreds of outraged residents. People being tear gassed, helicopters above, I keep hearing pops, and lots of loud BANGS. This smoke is from tear gas:

hello Mr Vice President this is your economist speaking I am advising you to keep using this metaphor

A five-year-old boy seized on his way home in Minnesota and now locked up in Texas. His family didn't know where he was for 24 hours.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Looks like this will mainly affect how NY10 and NY11 are drawn. If the 11th includes more of Lower Manhattan, the 10th will become more of a Brooklyn-based district.

So I guess what Davos showed us is that Trump always chickens out AND he’s mentally unstable and dangerous for international security.

I'd just add I don't think the crisis is at all over, because Trump never sticks to agreements just because they're conventionally considered binding. The crisis will only be over when his regime is dislodged from Washington, if then.

If Europe found a way for him to save face and move on, great. But Carney's speech was still spoken and was still true. The bell has rung.

Don’t count your chickening-out before it’s hatched.

NATO and EU members should sanction us for this, and honestly we deserve it.

in the early days of the Nazi regime, they weaponized capital controls to rob Jews trying to leave the country

I grew up hearing stories from my father about how folks abducted by Franco’s secret police would routinely “escape” to the roof of police HQ and “commit suicide.” The obviousness of the lie was itself an intimidation tactic.

Gov. Wes Moore’s advisory commission in Maryland has voted to approve a new congressional map for consideration by the legislature. www.wbal.com/maryland-red...

EXCLUSIVE: Germany has joined France in saying it will ask the European Commission to explore unleashing the EU's so-called trade "bazooka" in response to Trump's threat to seize Greenland, according to five diplomats with knowledge of the situation. 🔗 www.politico.eu/article/eu-b...

Paul's back and he nails it here

The Guardian had a rundown of Trump's late night Truth Social binge, which included "an AI generated visual of himself planting the US flag on Greenland." www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

The US is collapsing into fascism and going to war with Europe and the opposition party is like “I’m here to talk about the important thing: how your average grocery bill has risen by two dollars over the last year, which I also have no plan or ability to fix”

Good morning members of the GOP in Congress. Today would be a good day for you to wake up.

I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

This is what Michigan deserves for voting for Trump

NEW: The Trump administration appears to be deploying the same playbook it used in Minnesota—leveraging allegations of fraud to justify significant federal oversight—in other blue states across the country, starting with California and New York. from me + @makenakelly.bsky.social:

the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?

So to be clear we have actually reached the point where NATO states are deploying tripwire forces to deter *another NATO state* from invading *another NATO state.* I struggle to communicate the strategic and just regular insanity of this moment.

Someone inside DHS leaked the names of 4,500 ICE and CBP officers to a nonprofit that tracks ICE. About 80 percent of those name are active. www.rawstory.com/ice-agents-d...

They killed Renee Good and launched an investigation against her widow, trying to paint them both as “domestic terrorists.” This is what fascism looks like.

I am so angry and sick at the news this week like my god.

Maryland is considering redrawing its congressional map in response to other states' remaps & asked for proposals, so I submitted these 3 maps. Interactive maps with data: A: davesredistricting.org/join/1b9246f... B: davesredistricting.org/join/aad85b9... C: davesredistricting.org/join/0e76b33...

The main takeaway from Trump declaring we need a $1.5 trillion military budget even as the pentagon fails all audits (and we all know we don’t) should be this: Next time they tell you we can’t afford something that helps people (like Medicare for All!), laugh in their faces.

2026 midterm signal? Rep. Derrick Van Orden was one of the 17 Republicans who just voted for the Jeffries ACA funding bill. In recent months he has passionately trashed the law as the “Unaffordable Care Act” and these funds as “Covid subsidies” passed by partisan Democrats.

🧵Iran Protests Reminder What we're seeing is the result of decades of authoritarian rule where people have no real political voice, elections are tightly controlled, and dissent is criminalized. Sound familiar? It should because we are going to be faced with the same.

New Yorkers built a movement around the belief that every family should be able to afford a dignified life. Today, as Governor Kathy Hochul and I mark our commitment to universal childcare, we're proving that a movement of the people can transform how government serves the people.

They are desperate to frame a 37-year-old mother in a Honda Pilot as a well-trained “domestic terrorist.”

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.
