The U.S. women’s hockey team, which won gold at the Olympics last week, will not attend President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address due to "timing and previously scheduled academic and professional commitments."

Great read here breaking down the Bad Bunny halftime show

Here’s a podcast that does a good job of laying out what’s at stake, and why all of us need to get off the sidelines to demand change.

Highlight injustice, put oneself at risk, take the state violence while remaining nonviolent, generate images for the public, more see the undeniable injustice and grow more sympathetic, until state behavior changes. That’s exactly how civil disobedience is supposed to work. Well done, Minnesota.

“Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." Today, we’re reflecting on the exceptionally relevant words and actions of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

House money season. Magic finally ran out. I love this team. 🐻⬇️

"If that's not a highlight reel goal I don't know what is" Minnesota's Abbey Murphy beats her defender with a lacrosse move, then slides it over for Bella Fanale to score

How do they do it?!?! How do they manage to win AND keep me from enjoying a single fucking second of the game?!

Go Bears. Fuck the Packers. Abolish ICE.

Holy Jesus I didn't look close enough, saw the green logo quickly and thought this was The Onion and started chuckling man what have we done lol

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

“At the end of the day it’s F the Packers always”

NFL with puka

A weekend of horrific violence, videos of extrajudicial killings, memes & mockery from government officials, folks cheering for kidnappings, yet another school shooting met with "things can happen" & this abhorrent response. It's not hyperbole to say the human experiment is hanging on by a thread.

Via Bears PR, Caleb Williams now holds the NFL record for fewest interceptions in a QB’s first 1,000 career pass attempts (12).

Former Bears cornerback Charles “Peanut” Tillman decided to leave the FBI in part because he didn’t believe in the agency’s role in enforcing immigration.

This is precisely the kind of government coercion that the First Amendment was designed to prevent — and media companies need to start standing up rather than capitulating to it.

Both of these seasons garnered WNBA Rookie of the Year awards. But which is better? More, from the archives: http://dlvr.it/TN6Vps

“Charlie Kirk in His Own Words” 17 quotes you should read from the right-wing activist and Trump ally who was tragically shot and killed on Wednesday in Utah.

Judging by the shamefully opportunistic & politicizing rhetoric of some rightwingers on Twitter, & their cynical use of Charlie Kirk’s horrific murder for political point scoring, it’s almost as if Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman wasn’t murdered by a Trump-voting MAGA maniac just 12 weeks ago.

Jews need to be reminded that disgust for the Israeli government is not necessarily antisemitic. Non-Jews need to be reminded that being Jewish, or even being a Zionist, does not necessarily mean blind support of the Israeli government. Jews are not monolithic and Israel doesn't speak for us all.

All the dire implications notwithstanding it is hilarious how evil this technology is. Billions of dollars spent on this greasy lying stupid thing that was literally built to replace people, and everyone that uses it gets weaker, lazier, dumber, and sadder for having done so. Well done all around.

Breaking: Russell Westbrook better than MJ and LBJ because triple doubles. Per @sallyjenx.bsky.social

Tariffs. Stock market down. Medicaid slashed Secret police throwing anyone who looks Latino in unmarked vans. National guard and marines deployed in LA. No end to the wars in Gaza or Ukraine Bombing Iran This is the worst first six months of any presidential term in my lifetime.

Now THIS is trans allyship! I have never once regretted my fandom of Katie Nolan 💜

Republicans called on Gov. Tim Walz to apologize for calling ICE agents "modern-day Gestapo.” Instead, he said agents weren’t giving people due process and “the Constitution is not an inconvenience.”

In April, President Trump and Salvadoran President Bukele shook hands in the Oval Office to celebrate a deal to ship gang members to the notorious CECOT prison. But a new ProPublica investigation found there’s more to the story. 🧵👇
