Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

There's 1000 percent some serial killer somewhere pretending to be ICE to abduct their victims right now.

BREAKING: Scientists are staging a “science fair” in the lobby of a Congressional building to tell elected officials about the critical knowledge the US will lose because their research grants have been canceled.

Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth closed his Senate testimony with a word to his Lord and Savior.

“May His will be done” is another way of saying “Deus Vult!” (“God wills it”) — which is just one of the white supremacist tattoos he has.

Yup.

Check out the Carter Center’s photo from the funeral this morning and who’s obscured.

This photographer needs a raise. 🤣

Trump isn't even President and the chaos has begun. Will the government shut down tomorrow? Is Musk secretly the President? Do Republicans have a plan?

Nobody knows, folks.

But hey - the price of eggs!

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.

I am 💯% behind this.

REMINDER: Since taking office, the Biden-Harris Administration has delivered BIG on health care.

✅ Lowered prescription drug costs
✅ Expanded mental health care access
✅ Supported women’s health and cancer research
✅ Addressed medical debt
✅ Extended ACA coverage to DACA recipients

Looking forward to hearing Wikler’s specific ideas for change (WE NEED BIG CHANGES) in the Party, including investing in local races, moving away from TV ads, and focusing more on social media, where the people are—but his statement is a promising start.

📌 Ben Wikler announces run for DNC Chair

All this is pointless. Yea, every single person Trump appoints will be garbage. What do we do to secure the future? Who is running the Dem party?

Much rather you post videos with Dems who are mobilizing rather than rehashing the shit we all already know. Use your position to amplify Dems!

I gather they will start by eliminating expanded medicaid then start cutting regular medicaid. They will keep pruning away at the ACA, but won't touch Medicare for a while. Remember Paul Ryan wanted to replace Medicare with private insurance. Not a lot of happy seniors back then.
