imagine being so rotted that Bruce Springsteen writes a brand new song about how much you suck shit and announces it by saying “by the way I’m so fucking mad that I banged this out in 24 hours”

how are you still up and walking around after being slammed like that

Brother calls Ilhan Omar suspect ‘right-wing extremist,’ has hated Somalis for years Exclusive: ‘In my mind, he’s a piece of s**t,’ Anthony Kazmierczak’s brother told The Independent

NEW from @justinrohrlich.bsky.social:

“I’m not surprised this happened,” Ilhan Omar attacker Anthony Kazmierczak’s brother said. “Not at all. Unfortunately, he and my mother are both right-wing extremists.”

"In my mind, he’s a piece of s**t," he added.

Anderson Cooper played side-by-side video of Noem and Bovino smearing the victim of Saturday's shooting, then said, "If either of these public officials had an ounce of decency, they would call up Alex Pretti's parents and apologize."

What to read to understand the ICE phenomenon. Our friends at Verso have prepared this ultra thorough ABOLISH ICE reading list, featuring a number of excellent titles that can help explain how we got here. Histories of American immigration, or …

A mini syllabus (Including four free books!) for understanding ICE.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

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.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

It better not stop here. Dems better not use this as an excuse to bury their heads in the sand. ICE still needs to be abolished no matter who at the top gets replaced

it turns out it's hard to write when you're in a state of emotional paralysis

He spent decades bringing the religious right to power. Now he's marching to undo it.

Rev. Rob Schenck spent decades helping build the Religious Right—commingling church and state to advance conservative causes. Now, he says he must confront the damage he helped cause.

No Kings is hosting what is shaping up to be the largest ICE Watch training in history tonight.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

At the Alex Pretti memorial this afternoon, people are unfurling four very large banners.

They read, "How many more will ICE murder? How many more funerals? How many more...how many more?"

"Writing allows me to share what’s inside to those on the outside. Writing allows me to be connected to other souls." —David Mike

Freelance journalist @theiachatelle.bsky.social took this photo of the man “from the other side”:

Governor Scott is showing more spine than most members of Congress.

Extremely funny that the champion of the revolutionary left/socialist boogeyman of Republicans everywhere is basically Leslie Knope.

Stand With Minnesota Donation Directory Stand With Minnesota is a hub for supporting, learning, and taking action to support Minnesotans impacted by ICE and federal enforcement.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

I keep thinking about this fact that his last words were are you okay and hers were I'm not mad at you and it feels like a weird coincidence but it's just a reflection of the fact that the people who are coming out to take care of their neighbors are good and the people who are after them are bad

I get the impulse to push for more, harder, faster, but it's worth noting here: the lawyers for both the state and various other plaintiffs have been working their asses off at absolute breakneck speed today.

BCA accuses the feds of:

- Taking “exclusive access of evidence at the scene” (The phone he was recording with?)
- Detained witnesses
- Allowed the scene to collapse, “possibly spoiling evidence”

This is Minnesota’s statewide LEA that has jurisdiction over all fatal uses of force

@vivaldi.com For the third time, the DRM has stopped working on my braswer. The last two times, I completely deleted the browser and reinstalled, which was time consuming.

I did a bug report but never heard back. Do you have a fix for this? Or do I just need to find a new browser.

Hi. It’s a lot.

You still have a body.

Did you eat? Take your meds? Drink water?

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc...

Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

Is this fucking real??

We are observers, not protestors. We show up to document and film the atrocities ICE is committing. Using 5 year olds as bait. Kidnapping senior citizens. Breaking down doors without warrants. Murdering poets and nurses. Media has all of that information because *observers* were there to document it
