Just over a year ago, I left my 25 year NHS career to dedicate my life to a group of patients who remain largely unseen and unheard by the NHS - people with severe #LongCOVID and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (#ME). 🧡

Never forget this. The Spidey backpack they showed him with after being released had a brand new tag on it. I don't think ICE ever returned his actual backpack.

For my non-MN friends just getting to know us now because *gestures broadly,* one of the (many) things we're really good at is making the most out of things, even shitty things. Winter is brutal, sure, but we don't hide from it. We make it fun, make it beautiful, and enjoy it together.

Number of people waiting for publicly-funded long-term care in B.C. doubles since 2016: report | CBC News A report from B.C.'s seniors' advocate has found a ballooning waitlist for long-term care beds in B.C., saying that the province has failed to keep up with a rapidly aging population.

This is very concerning

Long-term care waitlist in BC triples since 2016

Between 2016 and 2025, the number of people waiting to be admitted to long-term care rose from 2,381 to 7,212, an increase of 200%

An ICE officer fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis. Local officials, including Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, denounced the surge of federal officers in the area.


"This was an agent recklessly using power that resulted in somebody dying, getting killed,” Frey said. https://wapo.st/4qOqc0x

ICE declares everyone a threat

Filming them? You’re a threat

Driving or parking your car near them? You’re a threat

Blowing a whistle? You’re a threat

Not white? You’re a threat

They can and will shoot anyone they want to because they believe they’re above the law

The only threat is ICE

So this is upsetting and sad. Our government is out of control. To bring more visibility to this outage the team connected to this reporting deserve Pulitzers and for good measure, the Nobel Peace Prize.

Wait, so the WH referred questions to El Salvador??

But Bari told me 60 minutes didn't ask for comment?
