Minnesota Kicks Off Legal Battle With Trump Administration To Hold ICE Shooters Accountable This story was originally published by ProPublica. Republished under a CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 license. They asked nicely at first. After an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent shot and killed Renee Good, a…

can i offer you a nice stream restoration in this trying time

This is a big misunderstanding. During this ceasefire I’m still allowed to kill you and your allies. You allow us gasoline so our country can continue operating. I am good at diplomacy and widely viewed as the serious one.

I would read a content analysis of the way the Times. WAPO, CNN, Jake Tapper etc... covered Biden leaving Afghanistan compared to this absolute debacle of the War on Iran by Trump.

The more you love ProPublica, the more reason to not visit their site today.

Precision strike from his Holiness, lmao Excommunicate Vance, please, I beg, it would be the right thing to do and also so, so funny

What exactly does he think is the difference between "God is great" and "Allahu akbar"?

So, we wouldn’t stop bombing without unconditional surrender, two days ago we had ‘won’ and destroyed the whole place, today we’re going into business with them?

Jesus: "I rose from the dead after three days and I still don't believe Donald Trump's ear could heal that quickly."

Seems relevant today.

Why we are here:

Here it is! Kudos to the reporter for asking the question. Unfortunately, it’s ultimately unsatisfying because Trump did not blow a gasket. bsky.app/profile/atru...

I completely agree with Marjorie Taylor Greene is a sentence I never thought I would ever write.

Great idea! He can go there, become president, and then the next American president can send in special forces to capture him and bring him back for trial on his many crimes.

couldn't quote-post the whole thing about the correspondents' dinner (next post down the feed), so here's some added context

As a journalist, I find the mere fact that this insipid event is happening this year to be several steps beyond disqualifying. You’re watchdogs, not lapdogs. Have some damn integrity.

If Iran has “no leaders left,” who is the administration negotiating with?

did I think that I was going to spend my first Good Friday as a pope-curious secular Jew typing the words “Jesus’s crotch” into alt text on bluesky? tbh no I did not and yet here we are

Accountability is very important. Without it, the people who do bad things are just emboldened to do more bad things. You vote for a capitalist, and you'll never see accountability. If you vote for a capitalist from either party, all these criminals walk free. Divine justice is fake. It's up to us.

The Democratic candidate in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race beat the polls by 13 percentage points. This follows an underestimation of Democrats in the 2025 statewide elections in Virginia and New Jersey. It's reasonable to question whether RV generic ballot polls are also underestimating Democrats

hmm... I'mma need to cruise by that local store I've been boycotting just to see if they still have Pedolf merch puked all over the checkout counter if I'm feeling myself enough, I might even ask after it 😈

At a minimum we should have a snap election every time Congress fails to pass a budget

people are so, so ready to be done with this but he is doing so much damage before we get there my kingdom for a snap election

I remember a decade ago when Scott Walker had taken the Wisconsin Supreme Court and insured a red Wisconsin for the rest of our lifetimes. We can still turn things around, we can still make the America we want for everyone.

Georgia election officials have less than three months to convert the state’s entire voting system from touchscreen machines to paper ballots, after the state Senate failed to vote Friday on legislation that would have delayed the conversion until 2028. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

He is not going to Europe to support democracy. He is trying to bring down Europe to support the tech companies who don't like having to be regulated.

uhm... does somebody there think the nut case running this country (into the ground) gives a single fuck about nuking a human chain? I'm pretty sure he doesn't in fact he may see it as a bonus

Desantis is the worst thing to happen to Florida since mosquitoes.

Americans make fun of Russians for living sad, short, alcoholic lives due to being sent to war and desperately impoverished by rich tyrants. Turns out that was just a crystal ball into our future

I feel like “the world passed peak gas-powered car sales in 2017” is not a widely known fact
