The news about this morning's shootings in Minnesota has me on edge about right-wing violence. Whether you are protesting or just a lefty going about your lefty business (mutual aid, organizing, etc), be alert, know who you're dealing with, and know how you would exit any place that feels unsafe.

PSA: We will be focusing on the “No Kings” rallies rather than his military charade, and we encourage other outlets to do the same. (‘Many people are saying’ they will have a much bigger turnout)

I had never seen this 1969 clip of Desmond Dekker performing "Israelites" before today, so I'm sharing it with you. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJAv...

I, like many of you, am not only devastated but furious at the assassination of two Minnesota lawmakers this morning. This isn’t some isolated tragedy. It’s extremism, it’s fascist violence, and we have to treat it that way. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Jesus. The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...

Horrifying news out of Minnesota this morning as political violence takes the lives of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. @Chasten and I are holding their loved ones in our hearts and praying for State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette as they recover.

Unsatisfied with mere political "victory", the fascists want to annihilate all opposition. Conduct yourself accordingly.

A Democratic Mayor arrested. A Democratic Congresswoman indicted. A Democratic Senator tackled and detained. A Democratic State Representative killed. A Democratic State Representative in critical condition. We can all see where this is going.

🚨 LAPD is literally charging protesters with horses, firing “less-lethal” rounds into crowds (and at reporters), and kettling people into traps before declaring them unlawful. One journalist was shot and only saved by Kevlar. This is state-sponsored assault.‼️ #LAPD #FAFO

This is the poster child of what law enforcement should never be, just another baby Trump. It also speaks volumes for that county in Florida that elected him into that position—maybe the entire state of Florida.

MINNESOTA: “Shelter in place order in a 3 mile radius… white male, black body armor…” The 2 Democratic lawmakers’ spouses were also shot.

Listening to Walz, and even though I've known and been warning for years now that this is where we were headed, political-violence-wise, I'm still just in shock. This whole week needs to be a wake-up call for all of us. We're in the fight of our lives here.

Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband have both died.

perfectunion Industry analysts worry these digital labels will let companies raise prices at a moment’s notice, making greater profits off essential items at the grocery store.

My kids know an American flag when they see one – but they don't yet know all that it represents. When they're old enough, here is what I'm going to tell them:

"Sheriff has history of cop-like behavior"

What an I aspiration 🥹. I hope someday my kids are as proud of me for standing up for what is right, as her son is proud of her. I do not plan to be on the wrong side of history … How about you?

Today a number of veterans, one being 80 years old, were arrested at the Capitol building in DC for peacefully protesting against the unconstitutional unlawful assembly of the orange felon’s dictator march. I stand with these heroes who stand against fascism.

Political protesting by way of theatre at it’s best on display at Union Station in Washington DC

We cannot move on from what happened yesterday. A Senator being roughed up and handcuffed for trying to ask a question is what you see in a DICTATORSHIP. Our country is at a crossroads and we need EVERY American to stand up to defend freedom, democracy and our Constitution.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Sound familiar?

L.A. TACO has confirmed with Brian Gavidia who filmed this troubling footage, that federal agents abducted his U.S.-born Mexican American friend, Javier Ramirez yesterday at 4 PM in Montebello. ~ @theglutster.bsky.social

ICE agents were. Caught dressed like Construction worker

we're getting closer....

We’ve heard reports of guidance for DHS to “pause” raids on agricultural worksites— and we’re skeptical. As long as Border Patrol and ICE are sweeping through farm worker communities making chaotic arrests like they did TODAY, they’re still hunting down farm workers.

WATCH: Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s wife leaves the federal courthouse after his detention hearing with a phalanx of family and clergy and friends around her

Re-enacting Sophie's Choice in present day America is the ultimate "Are we the baddies?" moment. Monstrous.

The system ain't broken by accident. It's broken on purpose.

Shameful.
