this morning in the Mpls suburbs: "There were 5 Ice vehicles staged around this neighborhood and the elementary school, they seem to be watching to bus stops during school kid pick up and drop off. I believe they are trying spook kids/parents so vulnerable parents would expose themselves"

It's a whole lot of BS hearing MAGA say that they're the patriots.

I’ve had it with people who say they love America but seem to hate Americans.

81 years since Auschwitz was liberated—81 years since the world was forced to confront the depths of human cruelty. We remember the six million Jews murdered. We honor the survivors. And we carry the duty to ensure Never Again is not words, but a promise.

Help her get her message out: Her dad is a 30 year US citizen but may return to Chile because he doesn't feel safe or welcome here-"We've been working for our communities and fighting for peace. It's so important that people in other states understand they are in danger too."

@markzaidesq.bsky.social (and his law firm), along with the amazing Kevin Carroll got this done. Thanks to Mark, Kevin and the firm.... The line “Let’s kill all the lawyers” is making the point that tyrants must first eliminate the rule of law and those who uphold it. Guys like Mark and Kevin.
My law firm sent demand letter on behalf of @thesteadystate.org to DHS to seek renouncement of statements by Border Patrol official Greg Bovino that there will be “consequences” for those who exercise 1st Amendment protected activity.

Letter is here:

When government agencies injure and kill people in the name of "enforcement," it's time to draw a line in the sand. Over 1,000 organizations, joined by DemCast USA, are demanding: No more funds for ICE & CBP. We can protect everyone's dignity. Congress must act now. Call your MOC

Q: Do you believe Noem has committed impeachable acts?
Rep. Khanna: Absolutely, she needs to go. She's presided over agents who are killing American citizens, who are overreaching in violating the Bill of Rights.

Trump’s Spending Bill means fewer people will have food on their table – by design.
He's forcing states like Illinois to create more bureaucracy for families to get the help they need.

All this to support tax breaks for the rich.
