We said there would be concentration camps if he was elected. They laughed at us and said we were overreacting. Now they are building a concentration camp in Florida. We were telling everyone what was obviously clear and their cult and head-in-the-sand obedience brought us here.

The one thing that every Canadian knows - if you are confronted by ICE you don't ever slam on the brakes.
You put both hands on the wheel and drive right over ICE.
True. North. Strong. Free.

This is f**king disgusting while weโ€™re out here using paper straws, recycling, not using grocery bags etc.

ICE agents scatter as SD Bishop Pham, other clergy visit immigration court "Our presence made a difference," one priest said, quoting an immigration lawyer saying their client was given more time to prepare for another hearing.

A little bit of holy water and the devils scatter.
It is great to see clergy showing up to ensure people have access to the rule of law.

If you think it canโ€™t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

There are widespread reports of ICE agents abducting people while masked, without warrants or identification. Due to recent events, we strongly advise: do not open your door or car for anyone you donโ€™t know. Thatโ€™s the message. No need to elaborate.

Over and over at #OpenRepos2025 the refrain: libraries are people, the work is not powered exclusively by systems but people making connections in the context of those systems.

I thought the Pete Buttigieg interview was fascinating, Genuine big picture thinking, which is hard to do at times like these.

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a โ€œthreatening breachโ€ of a police barricade

LAPD Shoots Photographer In The Face With Rubber Bullet Toby Canham was recording video from atop a building when a California Highway Patrol (CHP) officer suddenly turned his weapon toward him and fired from about 100 yards away.

A California cop shot a photojournalist in the HEAD during a protestโ€”despite him standing alone, wearing a press badge, and filming from a distance.

We're past the "bad apple" stage, folks.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

HHS under Kennedy canโ€™t be trusted anymore RFK Jr.โ€™s reckless decision on ACIP is exactly why he shouldn't have been confirmed.

RFK Jr. removed all members of the CDCโ€™s vaccine advisory board, despite pledging not to during his Senate confirmation hearing. Jeff Nesbit writes that the move raises serious questions about future trust in HHS leadership.

The President of the United States is advocating for arresting the duly-elected Governor of California for his SPEECH

He thereafter admitted that the Governor of California had committed NO CRIMEโ€”but he still wants him arrested

Spend as much time as you need processing what that means for America

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schoolsโ€”told staff they had โ€œparental consent.โ€

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasnโ€™t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Compare the courage of Greta Thunbergโ€™s Gaza aid mission with the inaction and complicity of western governments | Owen Jones The Madleen is no โ€˜selfie yachtโ€™. It is a symbol of human compassion in a world that has decided to look away, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

Greta Thunberg and the Madleen offered a heart in a heartless world.

They reminded us that Israel is deliberately starving an entire people - and the West could stop that at any moment.

I was honoured to join the youth of Treaty 9 in standing up to Bill 5.
This video is well worth watching. It shows the determination of the youth to protect the land from Doug Ford's attack on environment and Indigenous rights.

I guess this is what accounts for good news in the Trump years? The Justice Department will get back to charging *some* foreign bribery cases -- but with a radically diminished team of prosecutors. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...
