They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.
Hundreds of people spelled out the distress signal "SOS" on Bde Maka Ska in Minneapolis on Friday, Jan. 30.

The civilians in Gaza are facing starvation, homelessness and constant attack. Their accounts here are constantly deleted. We're their only voice and means of survival.

Please give to my friend Sharif and his children. And to others if you can. No amount is too small.

As we grieve for Alex Pretti and Renee Good in MN, please do not forget Victor Manuel Diaz, who died in ICE custody after being taken from here. And all others who have died in their custody.
36-year-old Nicaraguan national Victor Manuel Diaz died in ICE custody on Jan. 14 at Camp East Montana in El Paso.

The Texas Nicaraguan Community on FB reports that his mom last heard from him on Jan. 6, when he told her he was planning to go to Minneapolis to start work in a restaurant. 1/3

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

One of my favorite authors was the gentle & wise E.B. White. I think about something he wrote a lot these days, "Hate, it has caused a lot of problems in the world, but has not solved one yet". May we all choose love over hatred, love over fear, love over self-interest.

Keep in mind that EVERYTHING he says or does going forward is to distract from the EPSTEIN files.

People are reading AI-generated synopses of books and then claiming they read 100 books in a week. This is how the abolition of books began in Fahrenheit 451: classics were condensed into five-minute summaries for those too busy to do the reading. Later came the burnings.

People have no idea, not really, how this budget is about to wreck their very foundations.

People say, “There’s zero benefit to studying dead languages and old books.” The benefit is that you won’t grow up to become the sort of person who spends your one precious life online, yelling at strangers that they must never learn beautiful things.
