"Trump’s September 25, 2025, memo NSPM-7 ... describes opposition to the administration’s policies—opposition protected by the First Amendment—as 'domestic terrorism.' "

--"Politicians, senators, CEOs, Hollywood royalty. They’re weak and cowardly and silent. But the ordinary people of Minneapolis aren’t. They’re showing what it takes to stand up to power. And this killing only proves it."

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
Let us all have the courage displayed by the residents of Minneapolis.

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

It just get worse. Instead of administering CPR to a man who might still be alive, DHS officers were leering over the body, counting the bullet holes.

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.

This is one that stands out:

If you want proof that Trump is going to try to rig the elections, here it is:

In a letter to Gov. Tim Walz Saturday, Bondi claimed that Walz could “restore the rule of law” by complying with a list of demands, including giving the Department of Justice (DOJ) the state’s voter registration records.
AG Bondi demands access to Minnesota voter rolls after fatal Border Patrol shooting
Her demand came as Minneapolis was reeling from a second fatal shooting by a federal agent this month.

"Previous Guardian investigative reports have revealed that the Trump administration has aggressively rolled back efforts to combat human trafficking, including sex trafficking, and cut funding to support survivors of these crimes." -- I wonder why Trump's protecting these criminals?
