Elections do matter.

Seahawks demolish the Niners 💥💥💥

He gave a bunch of Nazi salutes and out came the super soakers (pic from Mpls subreddit)

They’re trying to deport witnesses to a murder by ICE guards

Really important for Science in the US Spread, and do!

Talked to a Somali man today who said his mosque last night was surrounded by neighbors ready to protect them against ICE if needed. Made me feel proud to live in this city.

Maybe the EU should stop giving government contracts to Peter Thiel (Palantir) considering he’s the one who wants Greenland and gives zero fucks if it starts WWIII

Looks like the EU-US trade deal is now dead, with all three major groups in the EU Parliament calling at least for suspension. The downward spiral has already begun.

Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder. " Federal courts in Alabama are using a law last applied during the U.S. internment [incarceration] of people of Japanese descent during World War II to charge immigrants who don’t register themselves..." www.al.com/news/2026/01...

The Husker train keeps rolling! 77-58 win ON THE ROAD against Northwestern Still undefeated 18-0 Ranked #8 Let’s gooooooooo!!!!! 🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀 #Huskers #Nebrasketball #GBR

1/ Peter Thiel-who backs the "network state" movement & the construction of charter cities—wrote a preface for "The Sovereign Individual," a book that states in part as follows:

A decision was made in nov 2024 that was not simply a repudiation of one Black woman But a repudiation of Black womanhood

Another way to support the targets of government sanctioned violence.

I think about this man every few weeks - www.youtube.com/shorts/Xof9F...

a whole two generations of mobility wiped out really. which is what they wanted. and they delivered it, brutally. epically. sometimes i really do just cry.

The "college-educated Black women are hit hardest" part wrecked me because it's for-profits on a grander scale. Do everything right and it still doesn't matter. And most politicians haven't even fathomed a world where they redress these harms.

Is there a bureau of exactly how much everyone should care about each thing and does the Atlantic run it and how does it measure that care and who exactly is the left anyway, and here we are in the US of A where the right regards human rights violations unto death with grisly enthusiasm, hello?

2/ let's not forget this. this is all on SCOTUS. these tariffs are comically, absurdly illegal on their face. but even if SCOTUS strikes them down in the coming days they've allowed to be in effect for more than a year, reorder the US and global economies. a one year dictator mulligan isnt democracy

The truth is simple: ICE can’t be reformed. It has to be canceled and replaced with an immigration system rooted in civil rights, real oversight, and the Constitution. Anything less is enabling abuse with our tax dollars in our name.

“Do not engage in a winter campaign in bitterly cold areas. You will lose not just your army, but most likely your throne.” - literally every military historian ever “GET IN THE CAR, LOSERS, WE’RE GONNA INVADE MINNESOTA IN LATE JANUARY” - the Trump administration

It’s not a distraction if his Greenland thing is one part of the main entree of trump and the gop right now: lumbering, mindless imperialism and brutality both abroad and at home It’s like saying a pivotal scene in a movie is a distraction from the rest of the movie

If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo 😂 (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before) Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DTQrTqZ...

It was always race .immigration and race were always connected . It was always gonna focus on working class Black people

About the ICE agent who fatally shot a man on New Year’s Eve while off-duty: A court document "says the ICE agent allegedly whipped his sons with a belt, made homophobic slurs and racist remarks about Black and Latino people and brought a gun to a youth sports game."

what the hell is this revisionist nonsense? This *did not happen*—except in the minds of the far-right. You're buying their bad faith bullshit. MAGA called for and now is building a white ethnostate b/c *they are white nationalists*. That's what they do. FFS

Democratic politicians facing frivolous criminal investigations from Trump: Kat Abughazaleh Elissa Slotkin Jason Crow Tim Walz Jacob Frey Letitia James Lisa Cook Mark Kelly Eric Swalwell Adam Schiff

Outside Gracie Mansion. This is his job. But dare I day it he seems genuinely affected and happy to be there. There’s potentially immense power in that.

Terror is essential to Miller's project. It's designed to dissuade us from showing solidarity with the immigrants getting removed. Stand in the way of ethnic cleansing and you risk violence yourself. (h/t @whstancil.bsky.social and @sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com) newrepublic.com/article/2053...

Trump is privately worried about the "optics" of ICE raids and his advisers are looking for ways to soften them, Axios reports. I'm calling bullshit: The terror and violence cannot be hived off from the broader policy agenda. They are 100% intrinsic to it. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2053...

The South Carolina measles outbreak is growing at an astounding speed More than 500 people are in a 21-day quarantine and about 200 are "actively infected." The largest outbreak currently in the U.S. has spread to at least three other states

Hey, people are permanently losing their eyesight at some of these protests and have been for some time. These people, the ones that have put their bodies on the line, are among the people who would benefit from your usage of alt-text when posting protest related imagery.

This could be the unified Dem position. It is wildly popular. Puts the regime on defense on two fronts at the same time. Good policy, good politics.

im sorry what

99% of the Epstein files are being held up by Pam Bondi and Trump DOJ. @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social are fighting for the release of ALL the files and continuing our investigation into Epstein's closest associates, including by subpoenaing Les Wexner and the executors of the Epstein estate.

Minnesota is Good, all that MAGA seeks to destroy.

A much better plan is AOC's call to claw back ICE funding and devote it to affordable housing. Cortez-Masto clownishly wants to give ICE funding to local cops. No, never. Local cops are helping ICE right now. They'd just continue to do so. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

To be clear: I strongly believe Ds giving ICE money for "training" and "body cams" will result in MORE violence from ICE. No. Never. Please call your reps today. bsky.app/profile/greg...

If there's any middle step that Senate Ds could ethically vote for under an R-controlled Senate along the way to defunding & abolishing ICE completely, it should include as a bare minimum: No new funding for ICE. ICE immediately OUT OF OUR CITIES. "Training" and "body cams" are worse than nothing.

You cannot "train" murderous, violent ICE agents not to be murderous and violent. Bodycams will do nothing to stop this. The agent who killed Good PROUDLY RECORDED THE KILLING. The entire agency must be defunded and abolished. cc @schumer.senate.gov @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social

Renee good was killed while being filmed by the shooter Cameras didn't stop him Camera are not making the shooter face justice Just going to make more snuff films for bigots

ICE has kidnapped one of my MN News Guild siblings

There are still 5,000,000+ pages of Epstein files that have not been released. Trump and Pam Bondi want to keep them hidden but we will not rest until we have every single file. Release the files, NOW.

They have quite an operation going. www.mprnews.org/episode/2026...

I'm seeing more people use the phrase "American carnage" for Stephen Miller's invasions and I think that's a really great hijacking of his term. He keeps trying to claim the chaos in MN is designed to prevent MSP from turning into Mogadishu but ... it's beginning to look like Mogadishu.

“Despair is a tool of our enemies” -Audre Lorde

every enemy has a weakness, and it is a movement’s job to exploit it

in any case, i have been a vocal critic of trump for a decade. i want nothing more than to see trumpism purged from this country. my view is that this will only be accomplished by a deep and nuanced understanding of where trump is strong and where he is weak.
