Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

Not an exaggeration at all to say that the feeling in Minneapolis is that the entire metro area is being treated as occupied territory by federal agents. Impossible to overstate how overwhelmingly people here do not like it. This does not feel sustainable.

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Trump’s reality check on Venezuela oil:
He rolled out the red carpet for Big Oil at the White House, bragged about reviving Venezuela’s oil and pushing for $100 billion in U.S. investment.
Exxon’s chief flat-out called Venezuela “uninvestable” without massive legal and commercial changes.

This is so dangerous. Trump never believed in the Constitution, that was only an act while he was running for president.
If there isn’t an URGENT check on his powers, we are cooked. And every sitting representative and senator, or anyone running for office, needs to be prepared to take this on.

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️
Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you.
Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No.
