Bad Bunny was fantastic

This was a full on musical. Somewhere, Lin-Manuel Miranda is furiously writing. 🔥

Liam Ramos, a preschooler ICE detained the five-year-old Minnesota boy as he returned home from school and transported him to a detention center in Texas.

The United States government used armed thugs to kidnap a 5-year-old child off an American street, separate him from his dad, traffic him to another state, and sling him into a scary & unsafe concentration camp.

"This is not who we are!!!"

Yes, unfortunately, it now is.

ICE not allowing agents to have unsupervised copies of ICE policies or to take any notes is an admission by ICE that it knows the policies are illegal.

Swift raids - Wikipedia

For those trying to “gotcha” people by pointing out Dem presidents who were heavy deporters, just know that I’ve been opposed to cruel deportations since always. Check out the Swift raids of 2006: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swift_r...

I lowkey love it when people pronounce “poem” as “poim.”

107 years ago, the Molasses Flood swept through Boston’s North End at 35mph. This bizarre tragedy happened because of the trifecta of corporate greed, war profiteering and xenophobia.

His 6 month old stopped breathing!

HIS SIX MONTH OLD STOPPED BREATHING!

A father was getting his kids out of the neighborhood because it was unsafe & ICE threw flash bangs & tear gas at his car with children & a baby inside!

His 6 month old stopped breathing & all the children were hospitalized!

Reading a lot of pro-ICE posts from people with last names like Cloutier and Ciccione. Your ancestors are ashamed of you.

Every time I hear about another outrage against immigrants in the US, I think about the nice liberal white guy I dated who thought that people got checks & phones at the US border and crossed daily to make $. I hope his teeth fall out.

I don’t think they released the agent’s video because they thought it would exonerate him. I think they did it to show us what they were prepared to do to any of us who disagree.

“Homicide.”

Mayor Jacob Frey: "They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defense. Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit."

Christians Should Be Standing Between ICE and Immigrants Every church welcomes everyone.

There is a turbulent, terrifying space between ICE agents and immigrants, between prejudice and the Latino community, between a sinful political force and the diverse human beings made in the image of God.

You are called to stand bravely in the space.

I’m feeling a little like Cassandra these days…

Not this session because Legislative Council didn’t allow a similar bill from Grayson Lookner to go through. So…no. And I’m not happy about it.

Got a Republican friend in MN who hates Walz and voted for Trump. If Klobuchar runs for Gov, he will vote for her. He’s not the only R friend back home who’s a Klobuchar fan. This is going to be interesting.

Walz: "We've got conspiracy theorists, right-wing YouTubers, breaking into our daycares, demanding access to our children. We've got the president demonizing our Somali neighbors and wrongfully confiscating funds that Minnesotans rely on. It's disgusting and it's dangerous."

I started telling my dogs “I have 49 things I have to do before we get to go to bed.” Honestly, it helps me push through the tedium because I imagine my dogs ticking off all of the tasks and thinking “that was a lot less than 49 but don’t tell her.” Joke’s on me. My dogs are pretty little idiots.

they should invent a year that's better than the one before it

two men are standing next to each other and one of them is saying well it 's not good but it 's a reason ALT: two men are standing next to each other and one of them is saying well it 's not good but it 's a reason

Happy “Well, I like that! Without so much as a kiss my foot or have an apple!” season to all who celebrate.

My friend is very talented.

PPH headline: "Gov. Janet Mills will allow ghost gun regulations to become law in Maine A spokesperson said the governor believes the bill requiring serial numbers on homemade firearms is ‘an appropriate update to Maine law.’"

Another law going into effect that probably only survives because Janet Mills is running for Senate and so trying to shore up her support with the Democratic party base.

Good! #MEpolitics

God help us when Auntie Ann’s Pretzels finally closes. Even the mall walkers won’t come then.

A photo of workers at Individualized Shirts, a shirt factory in New Jersey. Each person has their fist in the air as a sign of solidarity. There's a sign behind them with photos and the words: "Fair Contract Now."

Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

The death of pensions has been greatly exaggerated Pensions were left for dead, but their obituary might've been written too early.

"UAW president Shawn Fain plans to make a fight to restore traditional pensions a cornerstone of the union's next collective bargaining effort with General Motors, Ford and Stellantis."

Small business owners in Maine facing huge spikes in ACA premiums Enhanced tax credits that help people afford marketplace health insurance plans are set to expire unless they are extended.

The enhanced ACA premium credits particularly help small businesses owners and people who work for them In Maine, this also means they’re especially used by a lot of folks in the most rural parts of the state #mepolitics.
