That's correct. And that would be the craziest thing I've heard today if it weren't for the fact Trump filed a lawsuit against the IRS for... Ten Billion Dollars.

Do you ever wonder whether things would be different if Trayvon Martin's killer had gone to prison, or if Breonna Taylor's killers had been convicted of murder? Both cases sparked nationwide protests-but did anything really change? Would George Floyd still be alive if accountability had come sooner? If Renee Good's killer was sitting in jail awaiting a murder trial, would Alex Pretti have been shot so recklessly? Once again, we protest. Once again, we ask the same question: has anything changed? We no longer believe in the rule of law, or in the principle that no one is above it— oecause under this administration, the opposite has proven true. Justice is no longer blind; it is bought with money and protected by power. We need real change. Not swapping Homan for bovino, or even impeaching Noem, though that would be a start. What we need is a reckoning in Washington. Until we remove the fascist in the White House, we will continue to watch our democracy crumble.

As more and more people from outside of politics are speaking up, here is a great statement from Notre Dame's legendary former coach of Women's Basketball, Muffet McGraw. She correctly points out that a lack of justice in previous events makes future atrocities more likely.

This black and white photograph highlights the interior of a classroom building on the University of Pennsylvania's main campus. It shows a central stairway that splits on a landing. The staircase is backed by large arched windows with an inscription above that states, "law is unknown to him."

As the U.S. keeps alienating its own allies, they’re not waiting around. They’re cutting massive trade and security deals with each other instead, and Washington is waking up to a world where its leverage is no longer guaranteed.

I came to post this also. I thought MN National Guard was wearing yellow vests and are supposed to be protecting citizens from ICE/CPB.

When this nightmare is over, there needs to be a statue of Alex Pretti erected in MN or DC.

a taste of authoritarianism and seemingly likes it, they WILL try this again. The future of democracy in 🇺🇸 demands that people think twice when asked to violate the law and the courts by a President taking advantage of his SCOTUS bestowed immunity. 2/2

Excellent newsletter today by @jvl.bsky.social. This is so important. If Democrats ever return to power there needs to be Nuremberg-like trials for the corruption and lawlessness we are seeing. The previous Admin thought Trump would just go away. But now that the Republican Party has gotten... 1/2

A harvested, golden field, with several round bales of straw scattered across it. Dark clouds hang low over the field, with patches of blue sky visible. Ein abgeerntetes goldfarbenes Feld, darauf liegen verteilt einige runde Strohballen. Dunkle Wolken hängen tief über dem Feld, teilweise sieht man blauen Himmel.

Nice try. I'm still not rooting for the Patriots.

Fascinating podcast here about Roy Cohn and his relationship as a mentor to Trump...

You sure this is real? I've seen others post this is not his body because it went straight to the morgue and was never at the hospital. It's VERY moving if this is him, but I'm haven't seen a definitive source for this.

It should also mention that all the shots came AFTER they took the gun from him.

In the original video from across the street in the donut shop, you hear the first couple shots, then a different agent pulls a gun and starts firing. Seems to be at least two shooters.

One nit... Alex Pretti wasn't "scaring them." He angered them because he does not agree with their presence in the city.

The fact the candle is off centre in the holder really makes my sensibilities itch 😂

Sundering on a bad day in Minnesota. An ICU nurse in our Minneapolis Veterans hospital died on our streets today working for good.

A sunset on a sad day in Minnesota.
In memory of Alex Pretti who was a nurse helping our veterans in the Minneapolis VA hospital in the ICU. Again someone shot for being a great person.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.
