"O God, have mercy upon us. Forgive us for what we could have been but failed to be. Give us the intelligence to know thy will. Give us the courage to do thy will. Give us the devotion to love thy will. In the name and spirit of Jesus, we pray. Amen (1962)." #MLK #PrayForAmerica

Today I am thinking of Prince and hoping the upcoming Arctic Freeze helps drive out the bad guys. m.youtube.com/shorts/EM_Jq...

is this about Greenland or Minneapolis?

ICE officers are publicly stating that Renee Good was killed not because an officer was threatened but because they were made at her for not instantly following every order issued. The new ICE threat to protestors is: "Have you not learned? This is why we killed that lesbian bitch."

This is all of MN right now: It’s going to be Russia-in-WWII-cold this weekend.

This article is wild. The video is wild. The goal is fear and they're mad they're not getting it.

ICE invading Minnesota in January learning what Napoleon discovered in Russia

We locate ourselves with the poor and the powerless and the voiceless. At the edges, we join the easily despised and the readily left out. We stand with the demonized so that the demonizing will stop. - Fr. Greg Boyle

They hate Minnesota because we are a people who believe that "we all do better when we all do better." Minnesota is one of the wealthiest, safest, and cleanest states in the country *because* of our openness and generosity. Our quality of life is a direct challenge to their zero-sum worldview.

i think standing too close to ICE is what has been getting people killed

The ICE agent who murdered Renee Good must be prosecuted for murder. He enjoys no immunity from state murder charges. Then, Blue state governors must call up their National Guard to protect us from the armed ICE terrorists. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Minnesota investigators don’t even need the cooperation of feds to get to where they can file charges. They have the videos and witness statements, they’ll soon have cause of death from the medical examiner. All they need is the ID of the shooter which they can hopefully get from a civilian source.

To be clear, the federal government can't *stop* local and state authorities from conducting their own investigation. They can just make it a lot more difficult by denying access to evidence, witnesses, etc.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Minnesota investigators say they can't access evidence after fatal ICE shooting and FBI won't work jointly on probe. @reuters.com

Maybe the NY Times is finally sick of capitulating and sucking up. www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

10,000 people honoring Renee Nicole Good at the site of her murder

After Renee Good, hemorrhaging blood, crashed her car, a man from the neighborhood approached and said, "Let me take vitals and help. I'm a physician." According to a witness, ICE responded, "We don't care. Stay back." And they blocked him. These people are stone-cold monsters.

We cannot be more clear. Leave us the fuck alone.

So much for THAT excuse, DHS. There were no “agents” injured at the murder scene.

There really is no question this is an unequivocal murder. The officer fires 3 shots at the car. This still is taken before he fires the last 2 of those 3 shots: He is CLEARLY out of the car's path of travel, and in no danger whatsoever. This is murder

We pray for the soul of Renee Nicole Good. #PrayTogether #PrayForAmerica www.startribune.com/she-was-an-a...

I am so enraged and despondent over the murder of Renee Nicole Good this morning in Minneapolis. That ICE/DHS shooter needs to be identified, indicted, and prosecuted. What a terrible day.

before you decide you don't want to vaccinate your children you should have to take a 4 hour cemetery tour with me where i point out every tiny little headstone of a child that died from a preventable disease and is buried with their parents who would have done anything to save them

A must-read message from Colin and Sophie Hortman, Mark and Melissa's children:

Just for kicks, could someone at this presser ask Trump for his expert assessment of the real-estate development potential of Caracas waterfront property? Thanks.

What a nightmare.

Ever relevant, this poem by Mary Oliver, especially today.

Bragging that you just passed your 3rd dementia test is a great way of telling us they've made you take 3 dementia tests

I don’t say this glibly: this is an amazing scientific achievement. A real miracle.

MAY I REMIND ALL:

Never forget: Elon Musk has blood on his hands.

Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII. One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing. The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.

Opinion | Trump’s crude remarks about Rob Reiner are unbecoming of a FIFA Peace Prize winner.

The real lesson of Christmas is that if God had wanted to win over working-class Judeans, he should have sent down a less divisive Messiah.

The measles outbreak in South Carolina is “accelerating” with no end in sight following Thanksgiving and other large gatherings, state health officials say.

new rule: if you gleefully use the r-word in public, everyone gets to assume you use the n-word in private (and judge you accordingly). sorry i don’t make the rules oh wait i made this one sorry not sorry.

wtf is a FIFA peace prize? that's like being an NFL laureate in physics

Time for my annual debate: what’s the best movie version of “A Christmas Carol?” Obviously it’s the Muppet version, and I cannot be persuaded otherwise.

Tina Smith is a boss - and she’s right.

An entire room full of powerful old white people smiling and laughing as the president dehumanizes black immigrants and the first black president. Just fucking pathetic.

Not one Somalian in the Epstein Files.

Viruses and bacteria educating the public about science. Perfect!

My kids have whooping cough, there are no toys on the shelves, and my brother-in-law was deported despite being a US citizen. But at least I know there won't be black Santa Clauses this year.

Nothing to see here, folks. I’m sure our CDC is already on top of this.

Find you somebody who looks at you like Donald Trump looks at Zohran Mamdani.
