DA confirms they will go to the grand jury to seek first degree murder charges after they have time to review evidence. Under Minn. Law, 2nd degree was the highest charge they could bring by complaint (w/o GJ) & they needed charges to get the arrest warrant they used Sunday night.

Spray paint a Tesla: domestic terrorism Targeted political assassination spree: not terrorism

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.

There a reason the protests are being covered differently from the Tea Party The Tea Party was a front for the wealth class that owns the media and were used to demonize necessary reform These protests were democratic and populist, which the wealth class and its media opposes Hope that helps

Authoritarians depend on fear. Democracy depends on each other.

D.C. Air Traffic Controllers Given Day Off To Attend Military Parade

Does he wait for their diagnoses, or does Trump just pardon them now?

They're putting @nytpitchbot.bsky.social out of work with this one: "Self-Styled Peacemaker"

With or without documentation, simply due to skin color.

Uh, whose fault is this?

Seems relevant.

The Padilla detainment is awful but don’t miss that Noem promised to “liberate” California from the elected officials they chose.

This is not journalism. This is stenography for power.

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @dccartoonist.bsky.social )

This is how you normalize authoritarianism.

Forgot to tag @thelaurenelyse.bsky.social on this one.

Everyone I knew who covered disinformation got laid off, their bosses got bullied into firing them, or they changed their beats from actual Nazi harassment campaigns. It cannot be stressed the damage the paid-for Substack “free speech” guys did in the service of fascism and against real free speech.

The idea that the progressive left used the internet to bully institutions into accepting unpopular, far-left positions is the exact opposite of what has actually happened. The alt-right used the internet for ideological capture and they are now in the White House bragging about it daily

Why is ICE arresting employees but not employers? DOJ policy is to charge the most culpable people. The employers would seem to qualify.

Former Madison, WI police chief. Need more police and military leaders with integrity and the courage to stand up to fascism.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

When Joe Biden had a couple soldiers standing behind him during a speech, the press threw a tantrum and went on about how inappropriate it was for days on end. Their response to Trump doing far worse will likely be much more muted.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

It doesn't end with the illegal immigrants folks, it's actually just the beginning.

Saw that CNN has a new show called Eva Longoria: Searching for Spain and I really hope it’s just her pointing to places on a map and someone saying no

Rachel Maddow shares reporting from KFOR in Oklahoma about federal agents raiding the home of an American woman and her daughters while attempting to apprehend immigrant gang members they mistakenly believed lived at that address. youtu.be/DUMJqz53YW0

Don't remember this book for some reason

Gotta love an 86-year-old woman with the heart of a poster

This is the kind of thing that is going to happen constantly now that we have an unaccountable masked gang with complete impunity: Random scammers, stalkers and criminals are just going to pretend to be ICE, because why not?

Good thread.

Barragán: "This is not an effort to really get criminals. It's an effort to see 'let's see who we can sweep up along the way.' Why are they doing this? Bc this president said he was going to deport millions & the numbers have not been adding up. There aren't that many serious criminal offenders."

It is incredibly dangerous to deploy hundreds of Marines — who are trained in lethal combat, not law enforcement — against American protesters. Absolutely nothing good will come from this.

Efficiency is when you make the troops homeless *before* they're veterans

Bellingcat CEO @eliothiggins.bsky.social:

It’s not just that it’s clearly intentional, it’s that it’s clearly intentional knowing that he’s being recorded. They know they can do whatever they want with complete impunity.

1 in 12 Americans live in California. 1 in 35 Americans live in LA County. LA is America

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

These bungling thugs.

Every Pacers playoff game is basically last year's WrestleMania main event. You get to the fourth quarter, things get crazy, then boom, the lights go out and the Undertaker is standing behind somebody at halfcourt.

The Bucks, Cavs and Knicks, to the Thunder:

The Pacers are a drug-resistant strain

buddy I haven't seen Haliburton fuck up the south like this since the Deepwater Horizon

Everyone on Twitter right now.

Actually, it's two men.
