So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold.

We really are not a very good-natured country.

This odious white supremacist needs to learn some history.

Not so long ago, it was common to see "Irish need not apply" in job listings in the United States. You know, the same type of pernicious prejudice that Elon exhibits regularly.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

To borrow from critic Mary McCarthy, Every word they say is a lie, including "and" and "the."

A short note to Kristi Noem To a current Cabinet secretary from a former one

The New York Times reports that the Department of Homeland Security has sent Google, Meta, and other media corporations subpoenas for the names on accounts that criticize ICE enforcement. The department wants to identify Americans who oppose what it’s doing. I’ll save them time.

Alex Segura is a great writer, check it out.

ICE is still active all across Minnesota, even parking at observers homes this morning. But we’ve been showing up all weekend with massive food drives, placing hearts where were abducted, at singing marches, and there’s another big protest at Jackson Square Park today at noon. Let’s keep showing up!

Our Wins Of The Week Donald Trump’s attempts at diving us headlong into autocracy is being met with constant resistance from all sides.

This week was a good reminder that Trump can be beaten back. A grand jury rejected charges against Democratic lawmakers, immigration operations in Minnesota were scaled back, and the Pride flag went back up at Stonewall. With Trump’s approval slipping, there is real reason for optimism.

How the Epstein files exposed victims but protected the powerful The release of the Epstein files was supposed to expose a sex trafficking ring. Instead, they exposed the victims.

The Trump admin's rule change is another maneuver straight out of the Project 2025 playbook to purge career federal workers and replace them with political loyalists.

The labor movement stands with federal workers. We’ll see you in court, President Trump. https://bit.ly/4rCFgib

Opinion | I Was Arrested for Doing My Job as a Reporter. Who’s Next? I covered the Minnesota church protest. Press credentials didn’t protect me.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

“Journalism is a public service, and I am proud to be a public servant,” Georgia Fort, an independent journalist who was recently arrested in Minnesota, writes. “Professional reporting, observing and documenting is not a crime. But the freedom to do so is at risk.”

The Trump Administration’s War on Data A series of recent steps have erased the shared facts that help uphold democracy.

The demise of the CIA World Factbook is “part of a broad war on information being waged by the Trump administration,” @dgraham.bsky.social argues in The Atlantic Daily.

As much of the world bends towards machine-made slop designed to keep you scrolling so they can serve you ads, there is something very healing about going outside, wearing a costume that I made with my own hands, and working together with an artist like @worldofgwendana.bsky.social to tell a story.

UPDATE: Donald Trump is so hellbent on denying people SNAP that he went all the way to the Supreme Court to block benefits.

Now Trump is trying to bully states into TAKING BACK payments they already made to families.

It’s chaos for the sake of cruelty.

Trump admin tells states to 'immediately undo' steps to fund November SNAP benefits — NPR The Trump administration late Saturday directed states that they must “immediately undo” any actions they have made to provide benefits to low-income families via SNAP.
