Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Stand With Minnesota Donation Directory Stand With Minnesota is a hub for supporting, learning, and taking action to support Minnesotans impacted by ICE and federal enforcement.

It’s day 57 of the ICE occupation of MSP.

Are you here because you’re looking for a place to donate to folks on the ground? Minnesotans are organizing to feed, pay rent, and so much more for our neighbors under occupation.

Lots of ways to give at

Measles outbreaks are spreading across the U.S., and the country is now at risk of losing its disease-elimination status. Infectious disease experts say this is directly tied to Trump appointing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS. Are we great yet?

Here’s one ICE agent hiding super good behind a column in the parking garage to watch the growing smattering of people below.

They’re currently stuck inside their own parking garage.

Think about this: Pete Hegseth promised he would STOP DRINKING if he was confirmed as Defense Secretary.

That alone is disqualifying. Yet Senate Republicans went ahead and voted yes, against their gut feeling. And look how it's turning out.

Hegseth needs to be fired.

A black and white, square photo of a beach with a wiggly trail of sea-foam against dark sand and a brooding sky. The sun breaks through on the left, with distant mountains on the horizon. Horizon is in the middle, on purpose!

Tampa woman one of many Cubans deported from Florida this week Heidy Sanchez Tejeda's husband, a Cuban-born U.S. citizen is now frantically trying to get her back to Tampa

A mother breastfeeding a U.S. citizen’s baby gets deported back to communist Cuba.

Heidy Sanchez Tejeda was working legally, building a family, and playing by the rules.

ICE tore her away anyway.

Demand justice.

Demand her return.

Musk’s staffers are now forcing federal employees at several agencies including the FAA to sign non-disclosure agreements. The goal is simple: silence the resistance through more threats and now, forced agreements. Maybe we’re not supposed to be talking about being forced to sign NDAs… oops, lol.

The Vatican protocol required men to wear dark suits and ties to Pope Francis’ funeral.

Can you guess who was the only one who couldn't follow that simple request?

He continues to make America embarrassing again.

In a case like this, you cuff the suspect in the front.

Want to know why they declined to do so?

Because they knew this was a photo op.

These people are truly sick.
