This moment in history provides us with incontrovertible evidence that all the conservatives who claim to be extremely devoted to freedom of speech and the right to bear arms, and opposed to the encroachment of tyranny, are completely and totally full of shit.

It's all white supremacy and greed.

I think the nyt's political weathervane says that trump is now likely to lose, so the old grey lady is taking the honest route rather than the fascist one
Please note that NYT is leading with what the videos show, not the lies from the feds. This is what every news organization should be doing. This is how you cover a government that lies as it breathes. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/us/minneapolis-shooting-ice

#MovieReview: #28YearsLater: #TheBoneTemple. I enjoyed this one more than the prior "28 Years Later". While it ends this particular chapter, it creates new possibilities for the infected while also bringing us full circle. Also loved how they worked Duran Duran & Iron Maiden into the story! #Filmsky

ACLU files another emergency motion to lift the stay imposed by the 8th Circuit on the restraining order against ICE using force against demonstrators.

"Every hour that a stay remains in place presents new opportunities for irreparable injury."

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

Absolutely reprehensible that AG Bondi is offering ICE stand down in exchange for access to voting rolls. Outrageous and disgusting. It shows ICE is in Minneapolis is not for law enforcement purposes. Instead it’s a way to stir up shit in blue states and extort them.
In the wake of another fatal shooting in Minneapolis.
AG Pam Bondi sends Gov. Walz a letter today making several asks including:
"Allow DOJ Civil Rights division access to state voter rolls"
