“The ‘No Kings’ nationwide demonstration that has come to symbolize the resistance to the Trump administration is returning March 28, this time with a flagship event in the Twin Cities.”

Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., rolls out his demand for supporting a DHS appropriations bill: fire Stephen Miller

NY/DC corridor media speeding right to the absolution of Trump and missing the fact that nothing has changed in Minnesota, despite his alleged change in tone

ilhan omar is actually one of the bravest people in the world.

Congresswoman @ayannapressley.bsky.social has been trying to get qualified immunity eliminated her ENTIRE career. What the fuck is it going to take to get people to listen to her?

Two Democratic members of Congress attacked in three days. Maxwell Frost was assaulted on Saturday, Ilan Omar tonight.

It's also going to permanently harm a lot of people who will survive but with ongoing issues. Some of these people are going to end up blind and are going to have to adapt to that. Some of them are going to have lifelong neurological issues. And it's not necessary.

Was happy to vote early today for NY Senate seat 61 election. Our former state senator Sean Ryan became the mayor of Buffalo. In NYC there is a similar election to fill Mayor Mamdani’s seat. With all the crap authoritarianism MAGA is attempting, IT FEELS SO GREAT TO VOTE!!!!

US national parks told to remove signs on mistreatment of Native Americans, climate, Wash Post reports reut.rs/4rccO6o

Donald Trump must fire Kristi Noem immediately. Or Democrats will initiate impeachment proceedings against her in the House. We can do this the easy way or the hard way.

There's research suggesting that Black people need more sleep because of racism. Black women need even more because of the double whammy of racism and sexism.

Abolish. ice. 💔

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him. “When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

20 years later, I expect that number has only dwindled further. Lincoln’s rolling in his grave to find the Confederate flag used as a Republican symbol.

In case anyone forgot, this administration had already prohibited public funding of mRNA vaccine research. Moderna was one of the single biggest private funders of mRNA vaccine research. This will set us back decades.

You’ll notice the American state media gave President Biden a much harder time over his age whilst he was doing good work than they are with the orange felon who basically assembled an illegal army to murder people whilst he destroys the entire country out of spite.

I believe the US Holocaust Museum, having come under the control of Trump appointees, has been compromised. Every Jewish person I know personally has understood “never again” to have broad not narrow meaning. This is another attempt by MAGA to make Jewish Americans scapegoats for MAGA bad actions.

One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings. This can't be "reformed"

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

The greatest threat to Trump & Co is time due to his age. But the greatest threat to the United States has always been its racism within. Until we deal with it competently, another Trump will arise.

Minnesotans are leading in all categories of humanitarianism. They are such a source of hope.

Yikes. Rep. Brad Finstad, Congressman for Minnesota's 1st District, allegedly sent out this post yesterday and then deleted. Write-up here from Matthew Chapman: www.rawstory.com/brad-finstad/

My husband didn't know, so I'll repeat it here: Border Czar isn't a real job. Tom Homan has a fake job with a fake title. It also means that he wasn't confirmed by anyone in Congress. (Trump tried to confirm Homan in 1.0 but he failed bc Homan was too corrupt even pre-cava bag.)

I truly hate that this idea actually makes sense, and I'm not kidding one bit.

Downfall Bovino Edition. You're welcome.

The Sinema filibuster arc was really bad. They had the votes for the John Lewis, Freedom to Vote and For the People Acts and she got to be the rotating villain so Dems collectively could act helpless and keep getting lobbying money.

They were starting to do this in Minneapolis too - they would lead them back to their homes. But what the volunteers are doing is totally legal. They need to report these incidents to the local PD and document everything. Journalists need to show up there and help them document and get the word out.

Alex Pretti's coworkers taking a moment of silence in his memory this morning

Don’t they realize they don’t have to be actively protesting to get caught up in an ICE rampage? People have been going to the Dr, school, shopping… and have been pulled from cars with demands to see papers. If you are legally armed in that situation, yes it could very well be you.

This hit so fucking hard today.

We did predict it. And we were called alarmist.

To Gregory Bovino: This is what brandishing a firearm at a protest looks like.

“LET US OUT!” women & children scream for help inside a detention camp in TEXAS, where private prisons like core civic make billions of taxpayer dollars holding them while abusing, neglecting them, refusing them health care, feeding them dirty food & water, etc. In our name🇺🇸

Keep pushing. The dam is breaking. — Republican Chris Madel made a stunning exit from the Minnesota governor’s race on Jan. 26, saying he cannot support the national GOP’s “stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.”

Last week marked 16 years since the Citizens United decision. The consequences for our politics have been disastrous. Billionaire spending has skyrocketed—and it’s no coincidence that economic policies ever since have overwhelmingly favored entrenched wealth over the working class.

Tell me how it's not an impeachable offense to abuse presidential power to terrorize a state into giving up its voter list something the federal government has no right to have?

We had to put up with school shootings because "the 2nd Amendment" But watch ICE eliminate the right to bear arms by executing anyone they find with a gun and to hell with the 2nd Amendment. ICE will soon be killing citizens in their own homes because they're scared there might be a gun inside.

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

Just found out this dude’s store is called Dreamhaven Books. dreamhavenbooks.com

If it is fascism now it was fascism then but if you were wrong no need to pause to make a special effort to admit your error -- we don't have that much time now, please act right away, get organized, and then tell your followers what you are doing to stop fascism and what they too can do.

Wow.

This is absurd to put all of those CBP agents involved in the murder of Alex Pretti back onto the streets already. They pose a very real, proven danger to the community.

Wow there are 6 year old Pats fans who have never seen their team in the Super Bowl

Absolute banger of a comment on r/military: www.reddit.com/r/Military/c...

My friend Sara posted this about the superb care her father received from with Alex Pretti Absolutely heartbreaking

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign. Gregory Bovino must also be fired. No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.
