Tens of thousands of Minnesotans came out to protest and march in -12°F weather, on a weekday.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure
The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

ICE is now terrorizing FIVE-YEAR-OLD CHILDREN.
Trump said ICE's mandate was to go after criminals. So why was Liam Ramos detained, arrested, and sent to Texas after coming home from preschool??
JD Vance should think about how it could be his kids being snatched up by ICE.

"Video circulating on social media appeared to show agents using chemical irritants and flash-bang devices as crowds gathered [at the abduction]."
DHS: Approx 120 people surrounded federal agents..., throwing rocks and garbage cans.
Likely 100% untrue. If ICE continues to seize babies, may happen.

Objectivity and facts are things that are irrelevant to Trump's minions. And our crack media do an awful job of debunking the conspiracy theories, because they are so concerned with being "fair" to those who propagate them.

"Paid protesters" all over the country is the type of lie spewed by Trump and his minions -- designed to obfuscate the fact that it is ICE (paid with a $50k bonus and up to $200k a year) who are the paid fascist thugs shooting an unarmed woman in the face.

Make no mistake: these hospitals have the money. The CEO of NewYork-Presbyterian is paid $26.4 million a year. Montefiore's CEO? $16 million. Mount Sinai just dropped $100 million on an AI center.
What they lack is the humanity to care for anyone but themselves.

Perhaps most insidious of all, hospitals management is threatening to cut and reduce nynurses.bsky.social healthcare benefits. That's right: they are trying to cut healthcare for those who care for New Yorkers' health. Because tired, hurt, and sick workers are good for their bottom line.

Healthcare workers account for 73% of all nonfatal workplace injuries from violence, despite representing just 10% of the U.S. workforce. More than 26% have considered leaving their roles due to workplace violence. The workers who care for others deserve to be protected.
