There are other problems our community leaders would be better served focusing on. Let this go already!

They blame immigrants and trans people because they don't want working people to see who the real enemies are: the billionaires and corporations stealing from us all.

Big clash this afternoon between DHS agents and protesters in a residential street in Minneapolis, following a DHS agent hitting another vehicle. Tear gas was deployed in people’s yards and agents pepper prayed people.

ICE kidnap 17-year-old U.S. citizen working at Target then dump him bleeding and crying miles away in a Walmart parking lot… 🤬

I was the smallest guy on the team. I could field okay but couldn't hit. In Bronco league, the coach's son broke his arm opening up a spot at 2B. I started and lead off with explicit instructions to crouch in my stance and literally never swing to walk and get on base (late '80s/pre Moneyball).

Waymo declined to reveal how many of its robocars stalled during last month’s blackout when questioned Friday at a meeting of the California Public Utilities Commission, the agency that regulates autonomous vehicles.

This gives me much more hope the move doesn't set up a Nico trade. Let's roll.

ICE thugs will not be remembered as good sons, husbands, friends, or brothers--in the unlikely event they are loved by anyone. Their only legacy will be that they were monsters. Line one of their obituaries.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

maybe I’m naive but I truly think that anyone who isn’t in Nazi group chats is not going to see a video of a mom getting shot in the face and called a bitch and feel anything but horror

No, autistics do not “lack empathy”: “Where researchers had assumed impairment, they found autistic people applying moral principles more consistently—even to strangers, even when costly.” By Ludmila Pradlova.

What the World Got Wrong About Autistic People
For decades, autism research compared autistic people to animals, denied them moral sensitivity, and assumed autistic traits made them miserable. All wrong.

Tense scene earlier this afternoon as protesters follow Border Control Commander Greg Bovino and his caravan around in Minneapolis. At one point, Commander Bovino tussled with a protester, both slipping in the snow.
