This guy raped little girls.

In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”

Extremely powerful, please share widely.

Great story, thread...

Agree on halftime shows!

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books.

She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it.

It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

Great thread—opener is just setting up a contrast for more important point. The AI obsession is what it looks like when the ‘elite’ are actually committed to something (unlike diversity).

”….the activity that developed into this sport was an exercise for Norwegians as alternative training for the military.”

Wiki: “According to Encyclopædia Britannica, biathlon "is rooted in the skiing traditions of Scandinavia, where early inhabitants revered the Norse god Ullr as both the ski god and the hunting god." In modern times…

so much clothing is marketed as "conversation starters" but as an introvert, i want "conversation enders." no more talking. let me go home.

Incredibly emotional to hear my poem has been turned into a song of resistance and is being sung in Minneapolis right now. Please do not give up.

The funny thing about a certain type of angry conspiracy guy is that they’re literally being confronted with an elite paedophile ring and a tyrannical government at the same time right now, and because it isn't being done by the people they wanted it to be done by they’re all being pussies about it

Exclusive: ‘Pink coat lady’ who recorded fatal encounter between federal officers and Alex Pretti speaks to Anderson Cooper | CNN Anderson speaks with Stella Carlson, the witness who captured crucial video showing exactly what happened when Alex Pretti was shot and killed by DHS officers.

Extremely powerful interview. It also adds important context of what happened just before and just after Alex Pretti's murder. This person is a hero.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

Script from 5calls: Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP]. [IF CALLING SENATE]: I’m calling to ask that [REP/SEN NAME] push to defund ICE by opposing any appropriations bill that maintains ICE funding and supporting legislation that claws back the $75 billion ICE slush fund created by H.R. 1 last year. This lawless agency is violently attacking and killing immigrants and citizens around the country and must be defunded and dissolved for good. Thank you for your time and consideration. IF LEAVING VOICEMAIL: Please leave your full street address to ensure your call is tallied.

Snowed in? As long as you've still got power or cell service, it's a great time to send some emails or make some calls.

Yes, the GOP controls Congress. That's why it's key to show Congress COULD stop the madness. And it's not just the DHS bill. Congress could repeal the prior multi-year $75b for DHS; set up a special investigative committee (cf. Watergate); amend the Insurrection Act; etc.

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

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."

Abolish ICE, abolish DHS, redistribute the other agencies, prosecute actual criminals, such as people who commit execution-style murders of Americans in broad daylight.

The House passed an appropriations bill two days ago, which will go to the Senate next week. It faces a sixty vote hurdle to pass and the GOP has 53 seats.

We don't need a yet deeper analysis of the videos documenting Alex Pretti's horrible murder by ICE thugs. We need accountability. Congress must act to cut off DHS funds and hold lawless perpetrators and principals both to account.

Call your Senators (when this ice storm passes for many of us).

I really need Democratic lawmakers to understand that we're fed up with them simply posting on social media "this has to stop" without calling for specific actions to make it stop.

We know this needs to stop. We elected you. Tell us what needs to be done to make it stop.

Strong piece.

The fact that Trump destroyed the country and economy his first term, then managed get elected again in spite of his manifest unfitness, by blaming Biden for not fixing things fast enough, shows this is not an idle speculation.

Even that generations-long repair won’t happen without some kind of public reckoning, including hearings, prosecutions, de-nazification, & reforms. Otherwise, as others have noted, the next GOP candidate can simply blame any leader elected to fix the problems of not doing so fast enough.

Morally grotesque.
