I decided to go ahead and make a starter pack of historians, scientists, and others who work on scientific racism. If you’d like to be added to the pack (or removed from it), let me know.

Authorities in Minneapolis are asking for the public’s help in locating a 12-year-old girl who’s been missing since Saturday. There’s added urgency for finding Victoria Jackson because she has Type 1 diabetes and uses an automatic insulin pump, which likely needed a refill by Monday.

At some point we should discuss Meta's policy of quickly erasing the Facebook profiles of right-wing killers. The public deserves to exactly know how these people were radicalized by Facebook's algorithms.
Suspect in Minnesota Shooting Linked to Security Company, Evangelical Ministry
The alleged shooter is a 57-year-old white male; according to his ministry's website, he “sought out militant Islamists in order to share the gospel and tell them that violence wasn't the answer.”

This is the last post that Representative Hortman made before she was assassinated.
Next Monday, we will finish the work of the 2025 legislative session.
In addition to balancing the budget, DFLers successfully protected nearly all of our 2023 accomplishments, and we will continue to fight for a future where everyone can get ahead – not just billionaires and big corporations.

The news isn’t being clear about this but to people hearing about these Minnesota shootings: Melissa Hortman is the Dem leader in the Minnesota House and was Speaker of the House 2019-2025. She’s probably the most influential state-level Democrat barring the governor.

So that $10B bailout for farmers.
Is it a payout for political support? Yeah. Bold move for an industry that talks so much about hard work & independence!
But it's also worse than that. This is a US food crisis in the making.
