Never read the writers who signed the Harper's letter. Substack supports Nazis, so don't read those either.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

It must be wild being a Republican. Literally no beliefs other than a burning desire to have a bigger, more confident man tell them what to do.

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

One of the most fundamental problems for dealing w/ ICE is the GOP provided years of ICE agent funding in the “Big Beautiful Bill.”

No govt shutdown will end that funding stream, and there aren’t 2/3s votes in each chamber to rescind the funding & override a veto.

Means resistance is what we have.

Agents of one federal department killed an employee of another federal department which hasn't commented on his death and the head of a third federal department cheered on the agents that committed the violence.

Judging from Brazil’s experience under the military regime, I’d say the opposition party needs to actively help mobilize civil society. A demobilized society won’t defeat the regime electorally, and mobilization needs help from organized opposition parties.

They can’t kill us all, they can’t imprison us all, they can’t deport us all, they can’t subjugate us all—even though I’m sure they think they can, they really have no idea what they’re doing. It’s the bravado and the ineptitude combined with

I'm stating the obvious, but you guys are going to need actual denazification once this is over, whenever that may be. And it should involve the donors and complicit media, so this doesn't repeat in about 10 years.

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

I need Canadians to think about what is happening here at home. Carney is cutting the very agencies we need more than ever as things erode in the US.

Wake. Up.

I have never seen a community of people so united and so committed to helping each other in the face of something so terrible, in my decades of reporting on terrible things.

The people of Minneapolis are all in this together, legit. You can feel it and see it everywhere. It's incredible.

Nonviolence is, in fact, working. This administration is weaker than it was a year ago. More and more of the public is becoming galvanized against it; its agents are being impeded.
Do you honestly think people in the civil rights movement and other nonviolent movements faced no violence themselves? They practiced nonviolence because it works, because the oppressor wants a shooting war, which is the war it will win
How's your non-violent working Mr Gandhi stancil? They will kill each and everyone of you right if they had the chance and you will still be writing Kumbaya.

“Untrained” offers legitimacy. It’s saying they’d be fine if they were better equipped, professionalized killers with same agenda.
I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.
