They beat a blind refugee who speaks no English for failing to obey police commands he could not understand. Then instead of apologizing, they charged him with possession of a “weapon”—HIS WALKING STICK. Then they dumped him miles from home without notifying anyone, after which he was found dead.
Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way.

El mundo bailará!
my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek
The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:
- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA
Just staggered by the complete moral void of not even *pretending* to wait for more information before pivoting to “the opponent of the state deserved it.” It is so insanely depraved. Soulless.
Resistance to this regime can take many forms. Kudos to these volunteers who are stepping up to help their community in Minnesota.

The Governors of the free States of America, particularly Democratic states, need to hold a summit to create a deliberative body and as a framework for collective action against those who would wage war against those states
Today I was Kidnapped By ICE - Dawokefarmer
People in Minnesota are now using their key fobs to trigger their car alarms from the safety of their homes when they see ICE walking around.
35 million Americans live in poverty, and yet, this is what our president is focused on.

This is astonishing and a testament to the indomitable spirit of Ukraine.
The U.S. should be humbled.
The U.S. must support Ukraine sovereignty, now. Have you written m/ called your congressman?
NewsNation chyron: TRUMP: FOOD TARIFFS CUTS WILL LOWER PRICES
it's almost like tariffs increase prices
“If only these fretful Republicans belonged to some sort of governmental body that had the ability to limit or even stop these troublesome actions. One could image, say, a separate legislative body to check the executive, control spending & vet unfit nominees.” open.substack.com/pub/contrari...
This is a DC area food bank that has helped laid off and unpaid government workers. They need help. If you have a few bucks to spare consider this charity. www.capitalareafoodbank.org?utm_referrer...
Food banks were already struggling to keep with demand. Then, Trump slashed $1 billion from crucial USDA programs supporting them.
Now, thanks to his shutdown, millions of Americans in at least 25 states will lose access to food stamps on November 1st.
The perfect storm of cruelty.
And the millions who drove by all those thousands of street corners and honked their support!
You inspired me!
Did you tear-up today when you were out protesting because you felt the camaraderie and fellowship with so many like-minded and caring people?
I did.
Did you tear-up today when you were protesting because you're still processing the fact that we're rapidly tumbling toward authoritarianism?
I did.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public" - Theodore Roosevelt
