We're highlighting reporting from @inthesetimes.com on the recent abduction of worker organizer and NewsGuild-CWA member, Eustaquio Orozco Verdusco.

We ask that you please sign the petition demanding his release:

We have SIX DAYS to get this out of the Washington State Senate. NEXT TUESDAY is the legislative deadline to get bills out their house of origin.

If it doesn't pass by then, it likely dies till 2027.

Since farmworkers were written out of labor laws in 1937, we have to win at the state level.

Judge Biery orders the release of the father detained with his 5 year old son- yeah, the kid with the blue knitting cap with floppy ears.

This judicial order does not fuck around. Judge Biery uses some of the clearest language I’ve seen describing the unconstitutional situation.

Justice for all the people killed by 🧊

Justice for Keith Porter Jr
Justice for Renee Good
Justice for Alex Pretti

And others killed in custody.

Justice for the families, terrorized and cruelly treated.

Justice.

Independent journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort were arrested for reporting on a protest inside a Minnesota church. This is about intimidation. Silence the press. Frighten the public. Watch closely, our rights are being stripped in real time.

Yes, I know there have been many more deaths and horrors dealt out by this regime.

But this is a powerful image, and should be posted on every street corner.

Time for everyone (even the apolitical β€œpolitics just bum my scene” folks) to stand up and speak out.

Ninety percent of CDC's vaccine related surveillance databases stopped updating.

πŸ§ͺWhy do we need regularly updated databases? So experts can track infections.

The public gets access to graphs like this & can see show vaccines have positively impacted our lives & improved our quality of life.

Man lunges at Ilhan Omar during town hall and tries to spray her with unknown substance β€” NBC News The Minnesota Democrat didn't appear to be injured and continued speaking after the incident.

A man lunges at Ilhan Omar and tries to spray her with an unknown substance at a town hall.

This is the direct result of years of right-wing incitement.

Political violence is the point. Silence is complicity.

Trump-administration officials and MAGA influencers have repeatedly called these activists β€œviolent” and said they are involved in β€œriots.” But the resistance in Minnesota is largely characterized by a conscious, strategic absence of physical confrontation. Activists have made the decision to emphasize protection, aid, and observation. When matters escalate, it is usually the choice of the federal agents. Of the three homicides in Minneapolis this year, two were committed by federal agents.

β€œThere’s been an incredible, incredible response from the community. I’ve seen our neighbors go straight from allies to familyβ€”more than familyβ€”checking in on each other, offering food and rides for kids and all kinds of support, alerting each other if there’s ICE or any kind of danger,” Malika Dahir, a local activist of Somali descent, told me.

If the Minnesota resistance has an overarching ideology, you could call it β€œneighborism”—a commitment to protecting the people around you, no matter who they are or where they came from. The contrast with the philosophy guiding the Trump administration couldn’t be more extreme. Vice President Vance has said that β€œit is totally reasonable and acceptable for American citizens to look at their next-door neighbors and say, β€˜I want to live next to people who I have something in common with. I don’t want to live next to four families of strangers.’” Minnesotans are insisting that their neighbors are their neighbors whether they were born in Minneapolis or Mogadishu. That is, arguably, a deeply Christian philosophy, one apparently loathed by some of the most powerful Christians in America.

One thing I found deeply moving about resistance in the Twin Cities was the universalism of loving your neighbor, the philosophy driving the opposition to the ICE/BP invasion. I couldn't help but notice the contrast with the blood and soil-ism of Miller and Vance. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Dan and Jane resisted the idea that they had become political. A better word, Jane said, was humanist. Their anger was unmistakable as they told me that the Trump administration was violating basic Christian principles. β€œIt became clear very quickly that ICE is the Proud Boys, the Boogaloo boys. They’ve given them uniforms and let them run wild,” Dan said. He attended a legal-observer trainingβ€”which happened to have been on the day Good was killedβ€”and now the couple delivers groceries regularly to immigrant families in Minneapolis. This past Friday, Dan joined thousands of others at a protest in Minneapolis, where his fingers were frostbitten in the –9 degrees Fahrenheit weather.

Reflecting on THE atlantic article. It’s a searing, enraging, heartbreaking piece but more than that - it should be comforting to good people, and scary for bad guys.

I believe that we can protect our neighbors when the violence comes, and I know there are more of us than there are of them

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.
