Heads up, Iowa.
I reached out to Raygun to confirm if they were told directly that ICE was expected in Des Moines today.

Response from their owner, Mike Draper:

I’m super impressed.

Not only masking, but spreading the message in such a positive way.

Great job team.
Taekwondoin Tina Sugandh and her black belt kids, who always compete in their masks, warn about #LongCOVID— why they support #MaskTogetherAmerica and @publichealthaction.bsky.social. “This is for all that say you can't compete to your fullest potential at athletic events with a mask on.”

Minneapolis, MN -

Many many more agents filing into the area around the hotel. Minneapolis PD announcing everyone is under arrest, telling them to sit down with their hands up. An ad hoc journalist squad being told to go further down the street. Chemicals irritant deployed in the road.

"My God if this is true.

So one of the stupid ICE officers discharged his own weapon and the other stupid ICE officers...

JESUS."

It was the sig going off that spooked the ICE men.

One of the few Hollywood elite who has spoken out from the start on ICE, Israel/Palestine. Disney aren’t doing themselves any favours.

You can’t be serious. Albo has been a disappointment, but worse than Scummo? I don’t think so.

Alex Pretti was a VA nurse. Trump's fascist thugs murdered him for trying to help a woman stand up after being attacked.

If our government is willing to lie about murdering a government employee who cared for our veterans, then they won't hesitate to lie when they murder you next.

They need a bribe "Be good and you'll get into heaven. Be naughty and you'll go to hell". Classic carrot/stick. Atheists don't need any [fake] bribes. We know this and each other is all we've got.

Nothing says “unity” like an imperialist war machine flying over the country’s largest city on a day many First Nations people mark as one of mourning and survival.

This is not a day to celebrate.

It should be a day of truth-telling and remembrance — not the celebration of colonialism.

Now that I have the days correct, this is happening today at Midday over #Sydney harbour and the Parramatta River.

F-35 flyover scheduled for Midday. Also Seahawk choppers. For the dumb Australia Day thing.

Be sure not to leave your pets on their own, as the sound is distressing for them.

Amid the news saddening the world, a photo of the moon🌙 over an ancient castle and the words of a poet:
'She shines sae bright to wyle us hame, But she'll wait a wee.' 🔭
Translated for all of us: the light calls us home, but it’s in no rush—we can take our time, share a thought, a virtual smile. 🧪
"It is the moon, I ken her horn,
That's blinkin' in the lift sae hie;
She shines sae bright to wyle us hame,
But, by my sooth, she'll wait a wee!"

Lots of despair & sadness watching the 🇺🇸news today.
I'm hoping Burns can lift your spirit today.
