GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Mid-afternoon update at Snoqualmie Falls. Water levels are currently at 19.4 feet, nearly a foot and a half higher than yesterday!

Tomorrow morning it will make a run at the all-time record water level #wawx

As a constituent, I am asking that @governorwalz.mn.gov and @keithellison.bsky.social arrest these men and prosecute them before they kidnap someone and intentionally freeze them to death
ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.

Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.

Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

My dad was a state judge and made me take the KERRY EDWARDS bumper sticker off my car in 2004 because the title was in his name.
When I was a judicial law clerk in Montana, Pres Bush flew into the Billings airport for a rally.

I wanted to see Air Force One and asked the judge I clerked for if I could go. He said no, that it wouldn’t be appropriate.

And I was just a clerk. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/u...

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

There was a post last week telling people not to do ICE observing with kids in tow. Here's an example of something you could do instead.

I’ll reiterate the two same two points I’ve said a billion times:

1) When your ideology is based on destruction, anything you create is doomed from the jump.

And

2) When you’re in a group that craves exclusivity, no one is an ally. The only natural endpoint is an island of one.

Part of the right wing sales pitch was "Liberals are annoying" but they quickly proved they are infinitely more irritating, it's not even close
we all got cowed into avoiding "virtue signaling" as if the public affirmation of socially agreed upon ethical principles was somehow cringey instead of a significant part of what a "society" even is. now all there's left is vice signaling, and it's reshaping society.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

The list also disallows the use of the capitalized “Black.”
According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs.
Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵

Having children with significant disabilities in Gaza is very difficult and Wateen in particular has struggled to gain any weight
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Israa. Israa is the mother of four children Adam, 10, Omer, 8, Muhammad, 6 and little Wateen who is 2. Omer has developmental disabilities due to having Meningitis and Wateen has Downs Syndrome and is very underweight. They could use your help

This is so correct. When the AI bubble bursts, we're going to have to sit through so many CNN and Morning Joe panels where the same people who were pumping the military and police departments full of usefulness or dangerous AI will tell us what went wrong.
When this "AI" bubble pops, the men pretending they weren't pushing the hype, like "critics" whose position is "AGI is real but LLMs aren't the way," who were in eugenicist and "AI existential risk"🙄 circles, will get specials discussing what they saw coming, when its the women who told you so.
