Heading to SCOTUS this morning to attend oral arguments in the case of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook v. Trump. This is my first time covering SCOTUS as a member of independent media so scoring a seat inside to watch and listen in-person is even more meaningful for me. Grateful for this day.

Good morning, resisters More lies that serve the oppressors- Dems don't want to abolish ICE (millions of them do and several in leadership are very publicly calling for it) Democracy is dead. (democracy is battling in courts and town halls and legislatures and the streets every day) Keep faith!

Today I talked with police chiefs from across the metro area. This isn’t just happening in Mpls and St. Paul. The 3000 ICE agents are in the suburbs and across our state. The surge is disrupting the work of local law enforcement.

Incredibly powerful language from a Reagan-appointed federal judge setting the record straight about the “unconstitutional conspiracy” between Felon Trump and Cabinet members, Kristi Noem and Marco Rubio.

Polling about Renee Good's murder doesn't tell us what happened, we all saw that. it tells us how many people need to believe something else in order to justify sinister behavior

Remember when child rape got a perp "taken care of" in the clink, because even criminals agreed it was heinous and unforgivable?

MN Doctor: I learned that R Good still had a pulse 8 mn after she was shot by an ICE agent. Yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone behind me here as we try to fulfill our oath and duty to care for the ppl of MN.

Two members of Elon Musk's DOGE team working at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with an advocacy group seeking to "overturn election results in certain states," and one signed an agreement that may have involved using Social Security data to match state voter rolls.

McGovern: I believe ICE should be abolished. I don’t want one more penny for ICE.

“Listen up, everybody.” All that auto worker did was state a fact

This Iranian protest Rap song badass! Persian women are a force to reckon with. I could blast this all day! @GSHAHRZADSEPANLOU, The Asian Chronicle Zan Zendegi Azadi #Pinks

Fuck Nick Fuentes too. I saw a book in B&N today with Charlie Kirk's stupid face on it and thought, fuck, that guy's dead, while his stupid book still sells, because he decided to draw a line at pedophilia after carrying water for white supremacy for years. Hope it's worth it for these assholes.

A little info from our friendly resistance lawyer. #pinks #momsky #bluecrew

Once again, nope

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers. I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

i'm being a fucking harpy about this, but i don't care- it only makes sense to use your time and attention to attack beleaguered democrats if A. you don't know enough about what they're doing to appreciate their efforts B. You one hundred percent rag on insurrectionists with equal ferocity

If you were appointed unlawfully, you do not get to cosplay as U.S. Attorney. That’s not politics. That’s the law. Turns out you cannot just slap “U.S. Attorney” on your bio because Trump said so. Judges still exist. For now.

the international community lending credence to dems perspective is going to help US defeat gaslighting

Mark Carney gave a remarkable speech in Davos today about the need for international law led by middle powers that applies to everyone. The test will be whether he accepts Trump's invite to the "Gaza Peace Council," the most lawless disaster capitalism ever attempted and an attack on the UN.

BREAKING: In an escalation of its political attack against Minnesota officials, the DOJ subpoenas at least five state Democrats, including Gov. Tim Walz, for opposing Trump’s aggressive immigration raids in Minneapolis.

Not obeying in advance is where it starts. It’s how ordinary people refuse to hand their power to cruelty & fear. Everyone is worthy of dignity, deserving to be heard & powerful enough to stand up for what they believe in every day. That’s how we bend history toward justice.

There may be additional forces at play, but we would be foolish to ignore that the “Tech Bros”were salivating over Greenland even before the 2024 election. 1/

Former NATO chief: Europe must prepare economic 'bazooka' to deter Trump's Greenland takeover https://twp.ai/4iv8y3

Of course, he's bragging, as usual.

from White Bear Lake: "From trusted source, they saw this vehicle with agent waiting by kids bus stop. Similar location this morning."

disappointing we built ICE - people who need jobs, in shit shape, underqualified, mean spirited, and incompetent who would lose in hand combat with anyone trained to fight, but are equipped with grotesque powers of overkill and fat taxpayer funds to inflict harm we could build anything-why ICE?

we're getting all the downsides of cyberpunk (social alienation, ruthless hyper capitalism, digital mass surveillance state) but none of the promised upsides (cheap street food, cool jackets, super drugs that make you really fast and strong before they kill you)

The government today filed its fifth (5!) motion for extension of time to certify compliance with a court order in Dan Richman’s civil suit. Judge Kollar-Kotelly granted the motion — but directed that any further motions to extend must be filed one full business day in advance.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland. And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

If you are an American journalist failing to make Americans understand that YOU ARE PUTTING THE WORLD on the brink of war, you are failing to do your job. It’s not OPINION, it is FACT. We are on the brink of war, and your government has put us here. Period. For no reason. Americans wear this.

Thousands rally in Greenland’s capital, chanting “Greenland is not for sale,” after Trump doubled down on the US initiative to takeover the country. The protests are the largest in the nation’s history.

The difference between Prime Minister Mark Carney (diplomatic, articulate, well-educated) and US President Donald Trump (bellicose, coarse-mannered, ignorant) is too great to ignore. I can only shake my head at the Philistines who thought the bloated orange buffoon would make a great president.

IT'S SO EMBARRASSING — DANISH POLITICIANS ARE NOW LECTURING US TO GET OUR SHIT TOGETHER AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT OUR MAD KING PROBLEM. I HAVE THE VIDEO IN TODAY'S VERY ANGRY POST. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. LINK IS HERE: bit.ly/49L7pMG

it's lunacy to ask people to be polite while also browbeating democrats for not being scrappy enough. until this is settled, demanding peaceful and mild manners while tormenting several demographics is psycho

Thank you, Minnesota open.substack.com/pub/stevesch...

This is not a rational person. And this is deeply disturbing coming from an American President. NATO is not our enemy—they are unequivocally our closest friends and allies. At this point, how can you not call into question the mental fitness of this President?

Mamdani: I am in support of abolishing ICE… I'm tired of waking up every day and seeing a new image of someone being dragged out of a car, dragged out of their home, dragged out of their life.

escalation from the escalator guy

80 yrs later it’s happening here in the USA

Thank you for the shout-out, @gdad1x7.bsky.social. Your kindness is always appreciated. 👊🏼

The president of the United States is, at this moment, having a full scale psychological breakdown

sanity check: demanding better job performance returns from democrats while their opponents' violent coup produces mayhem, before demanding the insurrectionists resign or be hung is nuts, friends. illogical, order of operations. the pirates need to be tossed out. THAT should be our focus

reminder: gov't jobs are real for the people doing them. the impacts and consequences they have to remain aware of shape their strategy in public relations these people regularly deal with death threats, because of the dogshit state of play, where their colleagues have assaulted and killed VOTE

Fucking A it has to stop!

Ted Cruz is stretching back out inside his infuriating bs mode, after the brief era of his seemingly earnest interest in making sense
