“If we do not stand up to Peter Thiel, they’re going to come after all of us.” 13 people were arrested protesting Palantir’s surveillance of Americans. Palantir is profiting off of ICE raids. It’s refining its tracking techniques & gathering data at lightning speed. @moreperfectunion.bsky.social

. @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com BRAVO! Thank you for reading the letter sent by Tina Smith's aide Ed Shelleby to his colleagues in Senator Mike Lee's office I did two tours of duty in the Senate and Shelleby has the integrity I remember colleagues on both sides of the aisle sharing back then

I don't think I've ever felt more like burning it all down than I have while witnessing the elite project to turn Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander into scary, incompetent monsters while turning an actual incompetent monster, Andrew Cuomo, into a merely complicated fellow who just made an oopsie.

there is now a gofundme to benefit melissa and mark hortman’s two kids www.gofundme.com/f/support-co...

In 2016 MN Police killed a Black man named Philando Castile despite him disclosing he had a legal firearm. Yesterday MN Police released a white woman named Jenny Boelter despite her car full of cash, firearms, & passports hours after her husband mass murdered people & was on the run from police.

Did you perceive how he laugh’d at his vice?

for all of the praise of law enforcement we've seen since Saturday, it's now clear cops had at least two opportunities to prevent Vance Boelter from murdering Melissa Hortman and her husband but failed to do so.

I don't feel.any better that he has been caught. Just incredibly distraught about possible further violence. State of our country. Fearful for all of us who have retired what is coming 😢 😭

People will tell you that they view property destruction as equivalent to violence against a person, but that's not true. They think property destruction is worse

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Yes, he was asked about the flag and I think people need to hear what he said. “My parents came from Mexico, that’s the thing. I’m Mexican. My blood is Mexican. I was born here, I love this country. I would fight for this country any day. But I’ve got to represent where my blood comes from.”

Hi everyone I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

Minnesota noice

Community gathering tomorrow in Mueller Park, 25th and Bryant/Colfax in the Wedge, from 2 pm til 4 pm. We’re going to have snacks and beverages, and just be in community together. I hope to see many of you there.

Something just hit me. Trump’s tactics might have just awakened a sleeping giant. All day, I’ve been seeing clips of children of immigrants newly activated: speaking up and pushing back harder than their parents ever could. Future voters.

From the #NoKings rally in Middletown, OH -- JD Vance's "hometown"

Despite warnings from the law enforcement not to attend today’s No Kings rally after this mornings shooting of Minnesota lawmakers with the killer on the lose, the No Kings Rally is happening at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul.

The news isn’t being clear about this but to people hearing about these Minnesota shootings: Melissa Hortman is the Dem leader in the Minnesota House and was Speaker of the House 2019-2025. She’s probably the most influential state-level Democrat barring the governor.

“Suspect is white male, brown hair, wearing black body armor over blue shirt and blue pants and may misrepresent himself as law enforcement.”

Hello from Berlin where a few hundred Americans are outside the embassy, currently reading aloud from the Declaration of Independence. #nokings

#MorningVibe Over the last few days, people have taken to the streets of downtown LA to protest ICE raids, filling the air with chants and songs. Music has the ability to inspire, unify, & amplify the fight for equality. #FreedomToDissent

as per the MN crime account, there have been shootings at a state senator‘s house in champlin and a state rep’s in brooklyn park. suspect is apparently impersonating law enforcement and still on the loose, info on him - x.com/mn_crime/sta...
