Minnesota needs to know the number of children in federal detention, who they are, and where they’re being held.

BERNIE SANDERS: Do vaccines cause autism?

BHATTACHARYA: I do not believe that the measles vaccine causes autism

SANDERS: Nah. Uh uh. I didn't ask measles. Do vaccines cause autism?

BHATTACHARYA: I have not seen a study that suggests any single vaccine causes autism

Get to know your weeds. Don't spray them. They are great helpers. My favorites are:

Some days it's all we can do to get out of bed, go outside, and breath.

And that's ok

Judge orders 5-year-old Liam Ramos and his father be released from immigration detention | CNN A federal judge has ordered the release of 5-year-old Liam Conejos Ramos and his father from the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas, according to a ruling obtained by CNN.

This is what every Minnesotan β€” and every parent β€” has prayed for.

This victory is a huge relief, but we cannot stop until Liam, and all the children ICE has detained, are back in their own beds. πŸ°πŸ’™

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

There is so much love in humanity that it is hard to understand those who only wish to dwell in and feel hate.

I looked into tea shops to see if any looked familiar. And I believe auntie's is the one I visited. Not so much in the modern era though. Interesting

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

Stop calling them officers and Federal agents. That's not what they are. They are terrorists and killers.

They need to be arrested on the spot. Not allowed to slowly leak into a city and then overwhelm it.

Couldn't we just take them down with tranquilizers? That send like a peaceful solution to me. Tranq them like the feral animals they are and transport them away before they kill anyone else.

Man holds phone recording ICE before being killed

Man holds phone recording ICE before being killed

He was holding a phone not a gun, his crime? Opposing the regime. So they murdered him.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

The next could be you.

What’s at stake isn’t just our democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.

This is personal β€” to every one of us.

It has been confirmed that Alex was a lawful gun owner and did not threaten ICE with a weapon. Early video reports indicate the weapon was taken by ICE and shots were then fired to execute him.

You are no one's hero.

Infamous
Cowardly
Egregious

You are broken bits of society's leftovers. Creeping slimy things, masquerading as men.

You will be our shame in the history books. A stain hiding behind masks and guns.

You are no one's hero.
You are no one.

I know lol I had to look online to double check that I remembered it correctly. Maybe I'll find the tea house I went to in the dream nearby too. Besides, I don't think the trip would be wasted either way

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

ICE appear to have murdered another person in Minneapolis; after half a dozen regime thugs jumped and beat a man who tried to defend himself they shot him, an agent can be seen shooting him after his body laid motionless on the sidewalk. #3E #GoodvsEvil

Blessed are the willfully ignorant,
Turning a blind eye to the struggling.
Spouting piety,
"I give help to those in need! I feel such pity"
Just as long as they are close.
Just as long as there are some you see.
