Hahaha. Canada, we love you. Honestly, not being invited is a badge of honor. Wear it proudly.

What a People-Powered Movement Looks Like - The American Prospect The bravery of citizens in Minneapolis is the only kind of resistance to occupation that has a chance of working.

Resisting ICE canโ€™t be left to Democrats in Congress. โ€œItโ€™s the determination of ordinary people putting their bodies on the line,โ€ from L.A. to Minneapolis that will push politicians to act. From @ddayen.bsky.social: trib.al/FVgUm3K

As always, Dr. King's message is right on time. Today calls on all of us to hear his wisdom and put it into action.

The only way to have a repeat of what happened in the 1930's in Germany is to remain silent in 2026 in the United States.

Isn't it amazing how quickly this administration is trying to rewrite what happened yesterday in Minneapolis!!!
They are still trying to do that about 1/6/2020.
See any similarities?????
Impeach, convict, remove, and prosecute this whole administration for crimes they have committed in office.

Habitual liar and needs to be impeached, convicted, and removed from office.Then punished in accordance with the law for accessory to murder.The rest of the administration has similarly broken the laws of our country and need to be impeached, convicted, remove, and punished to the full extent of law

Why do our elected representatives in Congress willing put up with all the lies and illegal actions of this president and his administration??
The actions of Noem and her ICE agents show the Americans & world exactly what has happened to our country, fascist take over. Impeach, convict & remove!!!!

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: โ€œA 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.โ€

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

DO NOT LET ANYONE TELL YOU THE ICE SHOOTING WAS JUSTIFIED.

It was not justified. Hard stop. There is nothing more to discuss.

Anyone saying otherwise is ignorant or lying. Cut them off and tell them you will not entertain their arguments. Walk away (or cut their mic) if they keep talking.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Be wise, Minneapolis. And strong.

Now, when are the rest of us taking to the streets?

"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries.
"We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

If they could do this to Renee Nicole Good, they could do this to you. This is a lawless regime.

The indictment against Maduro is about cocaine. If we had an honest White House Press Corps, every press interview Trump did would start with why he pardoned a narco terrorist president who imported 400 tons of cocaine into the United States.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people donโ€™t want to โ€œrunโ€ a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Ailing wannabe dictator yelling at his people and insisting that they're getting richer and safer when all the evidence demonstrates the opposite.
