Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities:

Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down

Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged

Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

not sure I’ll ever get used to having a president who actively hates the country that elected him. it’s just very disorienting.

Around the world, politicians and businessmen are resigning from their positions because of the Epstein Files.

Except in the United States.

Here: Zero shame, zero consequences.

We need resignations, investigations, impeachments, and punishments now. Should have been years ago.

 "If you have any passing interest, look up the Black
 and Tans and how they were deployed in Ireland
 around 1920. The similarities to ICE (their
 recruitment and brutality towards normal people) are
 shocking."
 "Spoiler alert, they were f**king DESPISED by the
 Irish, and have gone down in history as unqualified
 thugs, given a license to dispense their cruelty."

My (Irish) wife spotted this comparison too.
The Black & Tans were largely recruited from demobilised WW1 soldiers who had drifted into unemployment and crime. They were thugs, and were hated. The name comes from their wearing of ill-assorted mixtures of army and civilian clothes - ring any bells?

Welcome to Minneapolis, Ukraine Under siege from invading forces, Minnesotans have shown a resolve best described as Ukrainian

The mood in Minneapolis blended open defiance with unbridled compassion β€” the same sentiments I’ve encountered throughout Ukraine during four years of war. And as Putin learned about Ukrainians, Trump has discovered that Minnesotans will oppose the invaders and love their own with equal ferocity.

Councilmember Nithya Raman to run for L.A. mayor, challenging onetime ally Karen Bass Raman would immediately pose a formidable challenge to Bass. She was the first council member to be elected with support from the Democratic Socialists of America.

OMG!!!

Nithya is who we want to be mayor of Los Angeles. I've worked with her personally through @hofoco.org. She's a progressive who actually gives a shit about helping people, not enriching herself. THE DREAM CANDIDATE:

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

The Long Ukrainian Winter How You Can Help

Russia’s full-scale invasion began 4 years ago. It began in winter, and so this winter is the 5th. And, for civilians, the worst. Russia launches missiles and drones at energy infrastructure to force Ukrainians to endure the freezing cold. Here's how you can help

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

Sitting in the same chair where she reads her Bible every morning, Ms. Britt explained how important it was to have these kinds of direct conversations with top administration leaders. To demand
answers for the people of Alabama. "I said I was going to run for the Senate to be a voice for the
voiceless," she said. "And I mean it."
Ms. Britt had tears in her eyes.
"I'm sorry," she said. "I just keep thinking about that child."

🚨Status Coup News just ended their Livestream in Minneapolis. They said that the ICE raids have NOT slowed down at all. They are documenting them daily. We cannot listen to Tom Homan when he feeds us the illusion that they are stepping back at all. We must keep the pressure HIGH on ICE.

Just like with Kilmer Abrego Garcia, the biggest sin any targeted immigrant can commit is winning battles β€” legal or PR battles β€” against the government, and they just won’t let those losses go
