It’s so cold in Minneapolis, and only going to get colder this week. An activist works to protect the memorial for Renee Good from the weather conditions.

Three years today. The cops are already killing protesters—it's not a line we haven't crossed, it's a thing already happening—but lots of people never heard about or paid attention to this one. So it goes
If you don't remember Tortuguita's story, one place that I think told some of it well was the Bitter Southerner: bittersoutherner.com/feature/2023...
Little Turtle’s War — THE BITTER SOUTHERNER
The shooting death of a protestor at the hands of police feels like both an inevitable outcome of this long battle over Atlanta’s South River Forest and a completely preventable tragedy.

The point here is to believe people when they tell you who they are. Gavin Newsom hangs out with Republicans because he likes hanging out with Republicans. This isn't 4-D chess. He wants to hang out with Ben Shapiro and Steve Bannon. When he says he agrees with them on things, it's because he does.

Fascinating to see the timing of all this. Their reputations were in tatters in Denmark bc their poor research practices had been exposed, so they turned to the guy they knew would be sympathetic, whose sole goal is undermining vaccines. And voila, they got $1.6M to conduct a wildly unethical study.
Truly damning investigative reporting in @rollingstone.com on how Danish researchers long favored by RFK.Jr for their studies which cast doubt on vaccines,secured a no bid grant to fund the unethical trial in Guinea Bissau. This read is worth your time.

Biden, loading bullets into magazine: You wouldn't want Trump to have this loaded gun would you?
This party helped pass the Laken Riley Act like a week before Trump took office, just a total inability to behave seriously as an opposition party
You don't get to pull the "Kamala Warned Us" shit when Dems are voting like that and the loser is fucking off for 6 months to have a book ghostwritten.

Never made sense that the while Democrats were warning us that Trump would deploy DHS as his private storm troopers, they were passing bills that raised DHS funding to record levels.

it’s one of those fundamentally cursed hospitality violations that you read about in ancient texts
The more I think about this, the angrier I get. It takes a particularly virulent strain of sociopathy to sit and let hard-working people serve you a meal knowing that you plan to arrest them and send them off for deportation once they're off of work.
Really depraved shit.

A few days ago, Fox News was whining about ICE agents getting heckled at a Mexican restaurant in Minneapolis.
Meanwhile, in the town of Willmar, ICE agents had lunch at a Mexican restaurant, waited until it closed, then confronted and arrested three workers as they left.

one of the best things about this whole nightmare has been watching a whole bunch of folks who have clearly never been seriously political in their lives standing up and going, no, absolutely the fuck not, we’re not letting this happen
ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”
it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.
