Conversation heard as one rapist talks to another rapist
Trump: "Frankly, if these radical left lunatic Democrats would come and say, 'Please, help us, please,' we'd stop crimes all over the place. Sometimes we have to force ourselves upon them because they're so bad."

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.
Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.
Beautiful and devastating all at once.

They are literally poisoning us, not to mention metaphorically.
When Trump stood on stages across the country, he said he would protect American families. He said he would drain the swamp. He said he would put ordinary people first.
Now he’s declaring glyphosate defense a federal priority.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

The Americans Who Saw All This Coming—but Were Ignored and Maligned
Call them the Cassandras: the people—mostly not white and male—who smelled the fascism all over Trump from jump street. Why were they “alarmists,” and how did “anti-alarmism” become cool?

Exclusive: group behind notorious Florida immigration detention center created bid for reconstruction deal
Trump administration insiders and well-connected Republican businesses have been jostling to dominate pending humanitarian aid and reconstruction logistics in the shattered Gaza Strip, according to sources and documents reviewed by the Guardian.
With three-quarters of Gaza’s structures damaged or destroyed by two years of Israeli strikes, the rebuilding effort to come – estimated at $70bn by the United Nations – could be a rich prize for companies that specialize in construction, demolition, transportation and logistics.

"Is this what you want conservatism and the Republican party to be?" Apparently the answer was yes, this is what Republicans and conservatives wanted their movement to be.

Usually, when I need an appointment at the VA, I can get one within 2 weeks. Today, I called for an appointment and the next available is in May, 2026. Firing 35K people will do that. The Trump administration hates veterans.

Stand with our fellow Minnesotans and against the forces of fascism flailing at our gates.
Somali Minnesotans are Minnesotans.
They’re our neighbors, friends, classmates, business owners, teachers, & more. They are part of the fabric of MN.
Trump’s ICE raids in Mpls are unconscionable, tearing families apart, & leaving them in dangerous situations. This is not leadership. It’s cruelty.
