Minnesota organizers confirm 50,000+ marched in Minneapolis amid brutally cold subzero temps around −20 °F. Protestors stood against impunity, ICE, and the Trump regime’s occupation.

If Republicans' recklessness and nonsense only hurt them, it would be sad. But the fact that threatens all of us is completely unacceptable.

I wonder if all the people who complained that some people got student loan forgiveness while the complainers hadn't been offered it will also refuse these new cancer vaccines bc earlier cancer patients they knew didn't have the benefit of them.
Just as this news was announced:
mRNA cancer vaccine shows protection at 5-year follow-up, Moderna and Merck say
The vaccines are tailor-made to target each patient’s unique cancer.

Dude, even some police chiefs are like “ICE is out of control.”
To quote one source:
“They’re terrified of being labeled anti–law enforcement. They want this to go away so they can talk about the cost of living more. Problem is, it’s not going away.”

The lesson couldn’t be more clear: do not obey in advance. That is how freedom erodes and dignity disappears.

People complaining that Virginia's move today to redraw congressional districts is "getting down in the mud" with Texas are too cute by half.
If Democrats didn't do this, it would be legislative malpractice.

Some thoughts I have on the inauguration tomorrow of our (Virginia's) first female governor.
There are people online resurrecting the right-wing smear about her "wearing a plastic bag on her head" and inferring that it's a sign that she's dimwitted or something. Here's what I have to say:

Just finished Netflix's new take on Seven Dials. It was less of a traditional Agatha Christie outing and more a super hero origin story. I think it's perfect for our dark times. I really hope it spawns a series; it deserves to.
