NEW: Slavery is Legal in Minnesota. These Groups are Working to Change That.

Prisoners in Minnesota are earning less than a dollar an hour making products for Disney. That’s according to organizers and former prisoners working to end prison slavery in MN.

Literally zero reason to do this. Senate Democrats just really like seeing protesters murdered in the street, what other conclusion is there?

Airbus Beluga ST5 made her final flight today, to live out her days at Broughton as a STEM educational facility. An intended flypast was cancelled because of the weather - however the crowds were there to welcome her, despite the cold (I'm still thawing out). A photo I took of ST5 three years ago:

GIFFORDS Gun Owners for Safety believe the Second Amendment is a fundamental right — but that right is meaningless if the government can violate it without consequences.

We’re calling on Congress for a full, transparent investigation and accountability.

So so so many people lied and discounted the brazen mass murder of Palestinian children.
After years of denial and accusing anyone using the numbers of duplicity or Hamas sympathy, the Israeli military now admits — via anonymous briefing to domestic reporters — that the Gaza Health Ministry's death toll from the war is accurate

There's a massive food recall (including Cheerios, how I found out) yet the only news article I can find about it is on People dot com. What is going on?
Pringles, Nutella, Cheerios Among Thousands of Products Recalled for Exposure to Rodent Waste
The company is urging consumers who purchased the affected products to “destroy the products as soon as possible,” per the recall announcement

Seems like the exact wrong time to look for ways to compromise with Republicans and exactly the right time to go for the jugular and secure the thousand year woke dynasty
Pew has Trump's approval at 37%. And:

"Only about a quarter of Americans today (27%) say they support all or most of Trump’s policies and plans, down from 35% when he returned to office last year. That change has come entirely among Republicans."

The American dream is dead simply because it was a lie marketing Socialism as Capitalism. Now that we are 90% of the way to peak Capitalism, the veil of "everyone gets to own a place to live" can finally fall away to reveal the true goal: recreating Feudalism from first principles.
Trump: "People that own their homes -- we're gonna keep them wealthy. We're gonna keep those prices up. We're not gonna destroy the value of their homes so that somebody who didn't work very hard can buy a home."

Also body cams are just more ICE surveillance. Needs to be said over and over
This is 🤡 stuff from Schumer/Sen Dems.

ICE already appears to have a "code of conduct" that suggests they need to be "professional, polite, respectful, considerate, helpful, and patient in all official activities ... even in the face of considerable provocation." www.ice.gov/doclib/foia/...

It seems that Tom Homan’s shift to a more humane approach is just ICE agents targeting local schools. Reports of parents getting abducted outside of schools, agents entering schools, hanging out around children’s bus stops.

Like the old saying goes, when you have your opponent on the ropes you make a deal to give him 1-2 weeks to recover
Latest intel: The 5 govt funding bills will pass, & the 6th, the DHS bill, will get a continuing resolution to buy time to negotiate whatever these conditions in ICE are. The fight right now btwn Schumer & the White House is how long that CR will be. The WH wants 3 months; Schumer wants 1-2 weeks.

I think they're just deathly afraid of a shutdown and getting blamed for it. Doing much of anything runs counter to their midterms strategy, which is to stand perfectly still and win by default
It doesn’t really need to be said but they are doing this because they support ice and want nothing to change. Insane that people still support them

Nick Fuentes called Alex Pretti a “race traitor” for opposing ICE.

I argue that sentiment is actually widespread on the MAGA right.

My latest for @liberalcurrents.com

www.liberalcurrents.com/after-alex-p...
After Alex Pretti’s Murder, it’s Clear That MAGA Media Views White Liberals as Race Traitors
MAGA is committed to the belief that the people ICE is pursuing are inherently bad and that therefore opposing ICE is standing with criminals and rapists against the American people.

This isn't mine, and I can't definitively find the original source. But I love this little bit of wisdom:

"If you're a fifteen-minute walk from a coffee shop, but the server there has to drive an hour to get to work, you don't live in a walkable city. You live in a theme park."
For all the fearmongering about capital flight from New York City, there’s an exodus few want to talk about: working people.

Sky-high rents and outrageous child care costs are already pushing families out of the city they keep running.
 
That’s what we have to change.

This bill passed both chambers in Kansas today —>
1. The most extreme anti-trans bill ever proposed is currently rocketing through the Kansas legislature.

It would empower bounty hunters to search for trans people in bathrooms, even in private businesses, and sue them for large sums of money.

The House is voting on it today.

The bill, which is racing through the Kansas legislature, stands a significant chance of passing the Senate.
