Tweet from Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun: "Ignorance like this cheapens the horror of the Holocaust. Anne Frank was in Amsterdam legally and abided by Dutch law. She was hauled off to a death camp because of her race and religion. Her story has nothing to do with the illegal immigration, fraud, and lawlessness plaguing Minnesota today. Our brave law enforcement should be commended, not tarred with this historically illiterate and antisemitic comparison."

To avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally."

In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

I grew up with Alex Pretti The kind-hearted ICU nurse shot by ICE agents was my childhood best friend.

I wrote about my childhood friend Alexi Pretti. Please read it and share it and remember him as a human being. @theverge.com

A wonderful piece. It's also something that kind of hurts for me to read, because these are spaces I desperately needed as a teenager...but wasn't lucky enough to find for many, many years.

anyway. obviously I'm bitter, but beyond that, part of how we got to fascism is that the mainstream media very deliberately decided to only boost people who couldn't recognize fascism.

oh commuters just found the motherlode of ice agents at a suburban hotel, including, potentially, bovino himself. a bunch of confirmed ICE and CBP cars from the bovino convoy there. spring hill suites in maple grove.

people of the twin cities, do with this info what you will.

I just want to say that 1) AltWatcher is doing the lord's work and 2) the altnps account, in my opinion, needs to be outright banned - and I don't say that merely because I loathe it, but because it's unbelievably unhealthy for this fake, plagiarizing, qanon-lite account to have this influence.

Guys if you see observers thank them. There’s real stress and burnout in the ranks right now. People understand they are waking up every day to chase and monitor federal thugs who can execute them. But they keep doing it nonstop to protect their neighbors

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment

"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.

At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

"I am a children's entertainer specializing in face painting".

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.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

"Please get the truth out about our son."

these men and women are saints and martyrs of the american cause.

it's cool that so many people in positions of power and influence were so negatively polarized by "wokeness" that they convinced themselves that there was an actual debate about who wanted to erase history and the "wokes" were on the wrong side bsky.app/profile/arch...

Mara Jade insists she doesn't find Han Solo attractive, and that really offends Luke. Aesthetically, he insists....just aesthetically....

An instagram post by Sarah Michelle Gellar, where she shares a screenshot of a tweet by user @godimsuchadyke. The tweet is a photo of Buffy and Faith standing close together lesbianly from Season 3 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, with the caption "this was my heated rivalry". Sarah thanks user @godimsuchadyke in the caption of her post.

Everybody shut the fuck up and pay attention to the most important thing happening at this moment.

"I should say so," O'Brien said. "For a moment there, I suspected you of the thoughtcrime of believing that Donald J. Trump, the president of the United States, would be willing to torch the country's credibility, set fire to its alliances, and tank the entire economy to acquire some territory in the North Atlantic whose name he could not even remember." The member of Congress sighed. "No, " he said. "No, you're right. We'd better do Iceland too. In case." He shut his eyes.

it is so funny that it is now apparently a bedrock principle of originalism that the unitary executive applies to everything except for the Federal Reserve which is different because we said so

Surely the real bold thing is proclaiming you are exactly the same kind of leftist as me, to universal applause?

The issue was never "the Democratic establishment," the issue was always "Congress and specifically the Senate are half Republicans, and they are utterly committed to preventing another Republican from ever being impeached." All the righteous rage in the world does not make 50 votes 66 votes.

I think 'ratings uber alles' was a credible theory of the Trump coverage in 2016-17. A lot has happened since then, and many folks haven't adjusted their cynicism to an even darker reality.

OK, but now you are making me have FEELINGS about 10-year-old me playing every RPG as a paladin. Truly, that kid was ahead of the curve!

The president encounters a binder clip for the first time, then talks about it for a while.

Remember when Joe Biden had a raspy voice and every major news organization created a 10-person Biden Is Old investigative team?

The woman shouting "shame!" was the wife of Renee Nicole Good who had just watched her being murdered by an ICE agent. That reaction was remarkably mild.

Then no win is even vaguely possible until 2027 (and probably not then either). Now, this is to a great extent true! The next year is going to suck! But spending the next year yelling at Democrats for not doing things they don't have the votes to do is at best a waste of time.

ICE has stopped paying for detainee medical treatment ICE halted payments in October, and the situation will persist for at least several more months

I’ve been writing Popular Information for 8 years, and this is one of the most important stories I’ve ever published. This is a humanitarian crisis that has gone unreported.

Thousands to lose access to HIV drugs with new cuts An estimated 10,000 people are about to lose access to their HIV medication as the Florida Department of Health makes cuts to the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP).

Catastrophe: Florida's Department of Health is stopping coverage for antivirals to 10,000 low-income people with HIV infection, blaming impending federal cuts to the AIDS Drug Assistance Program. 12.5% of Americans with HIV live in Florida.

Brianna Ghey was targeted by classmates who knew her offline. Online, she made friends and a community, and was making content to help other trans kids like her.

This is a grieving mother pushing for legislation that would have further isolated her trans child, that is supported by transphobes.
