Minnesota was just ranked the 5th best state for child wellbeing — here’s why: ✅ Free school meals ✅ Nation-leading Child Tax Credit ✅ Paid family and medical leave

Everyone in the chain of command who allowed this — from the platoon leaders to the 18th Airborne Corps commander — needs to be reprimanded if not relieved. We don't ask soldiers their political allegiance and we don't assign them tasks based on political allegiance.

BREAKING NEWS: Meerkat hugs a water sausage. Everybody has a great time.

Investigations are now underway into officers and ICE agents who fired crowd-control munitions at dangerously close range. In case after case, the situation only escalated when force was used against peaceful protesters.

Happening now at the maine state house - Maine farmers are rallying together ✊

Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.

Along with abolishing ICE we should abolish all for-profit prison companies in the country.

A woman walking home alone was shot point-blank with “non-lethal” rounds fired by officers in Los Angeles. A neighbor filmed the assault and rushed to help only to be fired on and ordered back.

a fairly deeply held belief of mine is that Americans want immigration to work the way they think it already does: you can get in legally if you’re patient on a reasonable timescale, and if you’re here long enough to put down community roots you shouldn’t get kicked out regardless

Rewording my earlier post. RFK Jr will be testifying before Congress. I am interested in what experts and others think would be the best way to leverage this time and opportunity for the public good. If you were behind the dais for this hearing, what would you do? What do you want to see asked?

The law must always be grounded in fundamental principles such as equal rights and due process, or it becomes a tool of oppression.

I’m incredibly disappointed in my senator @alsobrooks.senate.gov for voting for the Make Crypto Great Again Act. It would be deeply corrupt to give crypto (a worthless scam) any regulatory backing in normal times. But, to do so when Trump is using it to openly accept bribes is unforgivable.

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

🌻 Greta Thunberg being released... the internetWorld is gunna explode on this one c'mon lets make this interview statement Famous!!

Thou Shalt Not Fire Reporters for Standing Against Fascism.

Oh.

These two ultra-extremist members of the Netanyahu government have called for what amounts to the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from Gaza and annexation of the West Bank. Sanctioning them was the right move and more should join in taking this action.

Thou shalt not force good horses to trample peaceful protesters and pretend thou art the good guys.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Man, fuck this guy. What a disappointment.

We feed you. They hunt us.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced Tuesday that she signed an executive order seeking greater transparency from federal immigration officials. She said the city will submit regular Freedom of Information Act requests to find out who ICE is detaining and on what grounds.

Remember how Republicans spiraled after a small bag of coke was found in a tourist area of the White House, calling it a “security concern”? These people have stood silent since the revelations that Musk was abusing drugs while dismantling the federal government. abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics...

The important fact in this report is the one that never appears: Elon Musk is the largest Republican mega-donor in the history of the United States by a factor of ten. The moment you understand that, you understand the Republicans will let him do whatever the hell he wants, even if it kills people.

I like this Gavin more than podcast Gavin.

If the time comes, be like South Korea…

PHILLY: Man posing as an ICE agent robs car repair business, ties up and manhandles a woman from the Dominican Republic — “He kept saying he is immigration officer.” It was only a matter of time before these masked vigilantes breed impersonators. www.fox29.com/video/1501153

New in PN: ABC is too cowed to state the obvious about Stephen Miller "Miller and Trump are hateful bigots. Independent journalists can still say that. Journalists at ABC can’t, because the president gets a veto over their coverage. That’s not democracy and it’s not a free press. It’s fascism."

This feels like Alien vs Sexual Predator

real bummer finding out that literally everything was on the honor system this whole time

What a week... and it's only Monday We at CDC swore an oath to defend the Constitution and do our jobs as best we can Protecting you, the American people, is our job. And we will protect you as long as we can To do that, we must rest to gather strength. Take care of yourself, #AltCitizen GN 💚

In direct opposition to his lifelong Republican stance on protecting states' rights, Speaker Johnson now says that California Governor Gavin Newsom should be "tarred and feathered." He has to seriously turn himself into a reality pretzel to make this argument for Trump now.
