Fighting facism is not an end unto itself, but a means. We need to extend that to all our projects - WE MUST build a world that provides for ALL in our community.

January 24, 2026 at 18:42 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.

UN demands ICE killing probe
The United Nations demanded an independent investigation into the killing of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, while U.S. officials described the shooting as self‑defense.

BREAKING: Federal judge in Pittsburgh blocks DOJ's invasive trans care subpoena.
The latest loss for DOJ, regarding the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center's patients, also brings news that DOJ has started scaling back its requests following its many losses.
New, at Law Dork:
A tweet from reporter Natasha Korecki describing reports of ICE agents illegally swapping license plates on rental cars and noting that Illinois has issued a cease-and-desist letter. The photo underneath shows ICE officers walking down a residential sidewalk wearing jackets labeled “POLICE ICE.”
No masks, no swapped out plates, no badgeless enforcement. ICE and CBP: stop being the Gestapo.

It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.
