I haven’t picked up a book and wanted to read it all in one sitting in a very long time. I struggle with very real ADHD and it’s been the 💔 of my adult life not to be able to read for pleasure as much as I’d like to. But I’m locked in with this one. #booksky #thepush

Wisconsin, in response to a Trump post. They tried to pull something similar in 2020. Seriously, why don’t the triple Trumpers, Christian Reicht, oligarchs and billionaires just move to Russia since they’re so desperate to make America in its image? wisconsinwatch.org/2026/01/wisc...

Not a single Republican congressman showed up to hear the testimony at the DHS excessive force forum. Democrats had to apologise to victims on behalf of the United States government.

I spent most of my career life in catering and being a personal chef but at home I’m always looking for short cuts. These are absolutely genius. And Nicole McLaughlin’s wit makes me miss my southern girlfriends. #kitchenhacks #cookinghacks www.allrecipes.com/kitchen-hack...

They are STILL doing this under Homan. Nothing has changed. I’m shaking I’m so angry. @merkley.senate.gov @wyden.senate.gov

ICE agents inexplicably & without warning gassed kids, senior citizens and at least one baby at a peaceful, permitted march. They’ve also been gassing residents (which includes families with kids) in the nearby apartment buildings since last summer.

“And I had to tell him (her son who was at a sleepover) what happened…’So you were just assaulted.’ And he’s 10 yrs old. I did not use that word.I didn’t say that it was an act of violence even.But he called it. Yeah, we were.This crowd of 1000s of people were just assaulted by their government.”

Some FANTASTIC news!!!

MINNEAPOLIS: “Thousands and thousands— the people of Minneapolis are not letting up. Despite Tom Homan saying there’s a drawdown, these people don’t believe it. They want ICE OUT COMPLETELY.”

JFC. I tap out for 24 hours to support the general strike and come back to…

No work! No school! If you must buy something, pay cash. Avoid socials, Google, streaming services—anything that profits off of your 👀 looking at it. Have food to share? Stock and clean shelves at your local free fridges. Go to the library, go to community spaces, check in on elderly neighbors! ✊🏼

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

❌👑 Over the past month, we’ve watched as ICE executed two people in broad daylight and more behind closed doors. They have invaded our communities and are using children as bait to lure our neighbors out of their homes. 👑❌ On March 28th, we’re standing up against these masked terrorists.

The date for the next No Kings Day is set. But this is a save the date, not a “sit back and wait.” 🧵

BREAKING: Border Patrol Agents shoot and critically injure someone in Pima County, Arizona. @meidastouch.com

Slim Shady on the mic.

🔥 “This started as a pretext about immigration and fraud… it’s WELL beyond that now. It’s into your 2nd/4th/6th Amendments… We’re performing CPR on what may already be a corpse called the Constitution… Wake up. This isn’t just Minneapolis. It’s ALL of us.” (H/T @allenanalysis.bsky.social )

TW ⚠️ The stabilized version is brutal.

Tomorrow, the Democratic Party of Evanston members will vote to endorse candidates. Unfortunately, the DPOE misrepresented us on the ballot, didn’t tell us, and still has not issued a formal correction. So we’re doing it ourselves:

GEORGIA… 🔥

Same hospital where the Venezuelan couple was shot a few weeks ago. MAGA has dehumanized to the extent ICE agents don’t care if a child doesn’t receive emergency care. They want their cash and they want their quotas. Fucking monsters.

The party of law and order literally just wrote themselves a memo that says they don't have to follow the 4th Amendment. That's right, ICE intends to perform illegal search and seizures without a warrant. Add that to the list with "we had to beat up the police on Jan 6 to defend our democracy".

And Tik Tok....

I read HCR’s Letter or watch her Politics Chat as often as possible but this episode is required viewing. I cannot state this more emphatically. Please watch. www.youtube.com/live/3PzucmI...

There’s a moral rot in White America that we refuse to address. And Fox News is ground zero. Once they realized they could monetize White rage at the 1st Black President, they never looked back. It’s a drug now.

If it weren’t for Tik Tok, documentation of ICE activities in my city would not have been widely seen. Independent reporting in Minneapolis has also been crucial. So where do we go from here? TikTok Strikes Deal for New U.S. Entity, Ending Long Legal Saga www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/t...

Purchasing dash cams, porch cams and indoor pet cams for our at risk neighbors is an action we can take.

SEEING IS BELIEVING DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite. 📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported. DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.

Just an incredible photo and an incredible story. Thanks to them both for courageously capturing vitally important documentation of what’s going on in Minneapolis.

Heated Rivalry is exactly what I needed when I needed it most. 🥹 💕

this is what it has come to for Mexican restaurants in the Twin Cities

As an ex-Texan, can confirm. I worked in food service & the building industry. I can also tell you that it was totally normal for decades to hire undocumented workers out in the open (and exploit their cheap labor). My bosses were predominantly MAGA.

A letter written by Danish Staff Sgt Henrik Bager to former U.S. Ambassador to Denmark, Rufus Gifford. Every American—especially every active enlisted and veteran should read this. The betrayal of our NATO brothers & sisters makes me deeply ashamed. I’m almost glad Dad died before he could see it.

Video Analysis of ICE Shooting Sheds Light on Contested Moments (gift article) www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/v...

“The secrecy has concealed ICE’s transformation into a parallel FBI, a DEA and an independent police force whose mission has crept well past the deportations that media tend to focus on.”

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Besides this being a really shitty thing to do to an ally who has readily come to our aid (American soldiers on the Military Reddit frequently give props to the Dane’s loyalty & courage), the reason we’re doing it: so a few tech bros with an AI software toy that www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/o...

🚨"This is nuts! What the f*ck is going on, this is insane! ICE is just trying to scare people; they tell you it's only immigrants—it's f*cking anybody!" -furious Minneapolis resident tells our @zdroberts.bsky.social after ICE shot a man in the leg tonight. LIVE NOW ⬇️

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Uhhnya Porter speaks out after her father, Keith Porter was killed by an off duty ICE agent on New Year’s Eve. /

Ask yourself. If ICE is going door to door, what’s next? Armed federal agents took a man away in handcuffs. A woman came out of the house and said the man was her husband. It also appears ICE used an administrative warrant, not a judicial warrant. That matters….
