"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.

This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

This shit is maddening. Family text from my Dad.

If ICE kills us he would immediately assume we did something wrong.

They are brainwashed.

Tonight my 5 y/o asked me what she's allowed to do if a kidnapper takes her. She wondered if she could stick her tongue out at them. πŸ’” That little boy is so scared and living a nightmare.

This slogan adopted by Kristi Noem, "One of Ours, All of Yours," is taken from the Nazis, who retaliated for the killing of an SS officer by murdering all the inhabitants of the Czech village of Lidice, apparently none of whom had anything to do with it, and razing the village to the ground.

I'm confused. Every time i've gone to @nytimes.com the past day the top headlines have been about Venezuelan oil and not the Minnesota murder. Am I overdue in canceling and what should I switch to?

I'm grateful you all are using your platform to raise awareness of rare diseases - especially those affecting children - and also trying to find cures in a time when there have been so many funding cuts for these causes. πŸŽ— would love to understand more details about that impact in this series.

8: Man, the days go by so fast.

@luckysansei.bsky.social : just wait until your older.

8: why? Ooooh because you move slower?

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Told 5 I was trying to do a French braid and after we were done she asked me to take a picture. She looks at it and says, 'oh yeah, it looks like a French fry' πŸ˜…

None of this is surprising but that doesn’t make it any less despicable.

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

When my daughter went through chemo at two years old, hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills stacked up. While we were very fortunate with our insurance coverage, we also realized firsthand what a gamechanger ACA was for pre-existing conditions. So grateful, for her sake. πŸ’›

Just asked 7 if he could find a bag his sister found recently because I need the charger and he told me he doesn't know where that is because he wasn't in that scene 🀣

Thank you, AP. I remember my J school First Amendment and Ethics course well, and your actions here will be studied in future classrooms as an example of what's right.

7: no, some places give free suckers. And the car place had free popcorn.

When my kid got cancer I was shocked by how little research there was for her disease. There are still so many unknowns with her treatment.

Turning it into a political bargaining tool is salt on a wound most of these decision-makers will never know. Heartbreaking. Unsurprising.

Tonight 7 told me a boy in his class told him people who believe in God go one place and people who don't go to another. πŸ’”

Then he told me this boy also plays with guns a lot so they're not that good of friends.

Been there. I got antibiotics sick or infected 3x last year. I asked my doctor why this keeps happening and he just said, 'kids.' I don't know if he meant the germs or the stress but it's all of it and I guess it's not alarming?!?

*me, lecturing 4 on running ahead in a parking lot and what could happen*

7: yeah, but sometimes if you get hit by a car you get a lot of money. Like a LOTTT of money.

Me: who told you that?

7: an ad.
