Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Trump and Hitler share a similar vision of Europe, except Trump wants to come from the other direction.

If you are prone to tempermentalness please stay out of the way of ICE. They are looking to push your buttons. Lost eyes. Ears. Your life. Do not try to be a hero.

American Federation of Teachers is (finally!) dumping X, and moving to Bluesky. Good for them!

For the rest of my life:

"We can't pay for--" fuck you they paid for ICE to ravage our cities.

"We can't just defund--" fuck you they abolished the Department of Education.

Gourmet Magazine Gourmet is a worker-owned publication about food and the people who make and consume it.

Condé Nast forgot to renew the trademark for Gourmet and so a group of journalists grabbed it and are relaunching the food magazine as a worker-owned co-op. Love it. [gourmetmagazine.net]

124 new measles cases in SC since Friday for a total of 2,144 cases across 44 states. In normal times, CDC would be surging funds and staff to state and local health departments to try to contain outbreaks. Now? Nothing.

This is RFKJ, a believer in "natural immunity", telling us to "tough it out"

don't write songs about it or make tv shows about how bad they feel about their actions or or movies or comics or music videos about it. they are fools. they are an embarrassment to humankind. they are the mcdonalds happy toy version of nazis. our job is to make sure they know it

I walked Riley around 10 am and even for Florida that is HOT for January! I don't want snow but a couple of weeks of sweater/hoodie weather would be nice.

Opinion | The feds seem to use the 'violent rioter' label for anyone who protests ICE Jarvis DeBerry: The government wants us to think Renee Good was a “violent rioter” who got what violent rioters are due

DHS labeling Renee Good a ‘violent rioter’ fits its ongoing propaganda campaign

The government’s broad, seemingly reflexive use of “violent rioters” pushes the noxious idea that it’s criminal to publicly gather and express outrage at government officials.

Luckily, their effort is failing badly.

Whoever the next Democratic presidential nominee is, I want them to pledge to tear down Trump’s monstrous ballroom after they take office.

My Trump-voting neighbor is confused why we’re invading Greenland and I’m confused why he’s still surprised by literally anything his president does.

there is no positive route forward for the United States without mass arrests and trials for DHS employees

Find a local anti-ICE protest this weekend.

Hahaha on the motorcycle comment. Me too, sister, me too.

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

im sorry i know it sucks but journalists are going to have to be willing to get fired for simply describing what they see happening with their own eyes, you look like fucking morons

The purpose of journalism, especially when reporting on authoritarian actions, is to say what happened, not say what a wrong or lying person claims happened

NYT opinion headline: “I’m the Mayor of Minneapolis. Trump Is Lying to You.”

Both of these statements are true yet they can only be said in the “opinion” section of the new york times

Dems are still approaching this wrong. I just saw a BBC host ask a state senator if Tim Walz should call out the National Guard.

He says, "No, because Minnesotans know how to protest peacefully."

THAT'S NOT WHO THE GUARD IS FOR. THE GUARD IS TO PROTECT THE PROTESTERS FROM LAWLESS FEDERAL AGENTS.

What did you think? I really liked it but I hate having to wait a week for the next episode.

Chant extra loud for me because I am at the "I'm breastfeeding and can't risk tear gas and also have unresolved 2020 trauma but do you want me to babysit while you go to the protest" stage of making adult friends

feeling out the “idk if you guys are into this but we’re going to a protest this weekend” stage of making adult friends

Its one of the few ways I know to make adult friends.
I usually phrase it as "want to get drinks and cathartically scream in public"

We have lost our way. 🇺🇸 😳

She tried to leave and was murdered by ICE officers who have no authority over AMERICAN CITIZENS‼️
