Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon. Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

Why would you even consider funding this? In our name they are doing this. With our money. Why are you not doing everything to stop it instead of quibbling about details?

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

ICE was stealing equipment from the Islip Long Island fire department and a Islip Forward member documented it. ICE tried to arrest the community member but the firemen said “I don’t think so” www.islipforward.org

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

This one goes right alongside Bruce Springsteen’s new classic Check out this video, "Minnesota marsh family song"

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

I wrote this yesterday about the hero city of Minneapolis www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKOW...

Do NOT fund ICE @schumer.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov @wyden.senate.gov @vanhollen.senate.gov @democrats.senate.gov @rosen.senate.gov @sencortezmasto.govpeeps.us @durbin.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov

This is also extremely embarrassing for @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, who needs to resign as minority House leader.

signs left at alex pretti’s memorial in minneapolis: “i love you so much / i’ll miss you forever” photo with a friend, “i would have done the same. RIP alex,” a stethoscope and “we’ll take it from here, alex” and a tshirt for the minnesota nurses association

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

THIS AGENCY will never be viewed as legitimate again. You need to understand that, in the eyes of your constituents and all Americans, this agency is forever tarnished. You have to dismantle it entirely.

Hey dude, you are the senate minority leader. If you are unable to get enough democratic senators to vote against funding DHS then you need to step down and Dems need to find an actual leader who knows how to lead their caucus

Every Democratic governor, attorney general, senator and House member needs to stand up and loudly say in unison: Enough. Trump's war on Americans must end.

TikTok is now under US ownership and their new ToS reads like a guide to giving fascists everything they need to put you on a list. They’re collecting information about immigration status, citizenship, sexual orientation, whether you’re trans or non binary and physical or mental disabilities.

Hey @blumenthal.senate.gov - they are ALREADY LEGALLY REQUIRED to get a judicial warrant! This lawlessness can't be reformed. Any Democrat that votes for another penny in funding to ICE is complicit, and voters will remember. cc to my senators @kaine.senate.gov and @markwarner.bsky.social

Hope Sens Warner and Kaine are listening.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Just a reminder ▶️ Brett Kavanaugh did this. #KavanaughStops

WATCH: Trump shows his middle finger and appears to say "fuck you" after Ford worker yells "pedophile protector" - TMZ

Hey @thehill.com we’re still waiting on your apologies for this lie. 🤷‍♀️

I did a crisper version of this Andor remix if anyone is a completist.

An Oregon lawmaker is warning of ICE agents posing as utility workers. NW Natural and Portland General Electric have published guidance in several languages on how to tell if a person is actually one of their employees.

It’s past time for Dem leaders with massive social media platforms like @aoc.bsky.social @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @barackobama.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov @chrismurphyct.bsky.social et al to leave or wind down on X. Show some freaking moral leadership.

For those of us not in the cult, this is what we hear when anyone from the Trump administration speaks. For the people in the back, this is satire and so well done…

Whoever you are in the coming days, don’t be this man, who has not learned a single fucking thing over the past year.

Thank you!!! Leaders DO YOUR DAMN JOB! NOW!!! @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

Searched back through Blue Sky for this. Which is one of the best things I saw all year in any medium.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

Chris Martin made this video with him last year for his 99th. It's just adorable and will bring the tears. I love him so much.

Your voice is more powerful than threats from a weakening, unpopular president. If they hear enough from you now, legislators may still do the right thing. Hoosiers, call today and tell them to vote no: 317-232-9400.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too? A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

They should have worked this part into the headline: Trump Promises Executive Order to Block State A.I. Regulations www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/u...

hey @nytimes.com i had the scoop on this story hours ago. add a reference in your story to my name and outlet. thanks. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/u...

MAJOR: The Trump Administration has been caught lying about the D.C. shooting suspect. The truth: He was vetted by Trump. He had a CIA badge, worked with the CIA in Afghanistan, and granted asylum by Trump in April. Spread this everywhere. Subscribe to support my work, even on Thanksgiving:

@govpritzker.illinois.gov I want you to watch this video of me slammed to the ground- why are you allowing this to happen to people you know are on the right side of history. They tied my hands behind my back and when I asked them to be loosened because I was going numb they said, “STFU.”

-You had the support of the country. -Republicans had been widely (and rightfully) blamed. -We are coming off of elections in which dems went undefeated. -People had sacrificed a great deal. *You had either been complicit in those 8 yes votes or too weak and ineffective as a leader.*

We’re all trying to figure out who controls the democratic Senate caucus, because that person should resign.

Just got CuckSchumer.com and redirected it for anybody that wants to donate to @aoc.bsky.social directly on ActBlue.

Respectfully Senator, you need to remove Schumer as Senate minority leader or we have no chance.

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise. Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families. Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
