We’ve lived in our house about 13 years and walked around Lake Harriet 100s of times. We had never seen swans before. But others said they’re there every year. Anyways… the swans are numerous at the moment. Here’s a family off of north beach.

Off the clock and running an errand when I heard a woman at a local bakery ask if she could put something up. Beth Christopherson is spending her Sunday driving around to provide local businesses with signs she printed up. It goes with the bakery's homemade sign barring ICE.

Not including Border Patrol, ICE has arrested nearly 75,000 people with no criminal records.

This data is compiled by ICE internally and was obtained by
UC Berkeley’s Deportation Data Project via a lawsuit.

ICE is currently holding 65,000 migrants in detention centers around the country.

In post-Roe America, abortion providers and their patients face "a lot of pressure" and "a lot of stereotypes," says @soledadobrien.bsky.social. Her new documentary, "The Devil is Busy" sheds light on "the actual people in these clinics," and the realities of reproductive healthcare. #Velshi
Soledad O'Brien: 'The Devil is Busy' gives “a more nuanced picture” of abortion providers
The new HBO documentary “The Devil is Busy” looks at the difficult daily work of abortion providers working under strict restrictions in Atlanta. Executive producer Soledad O'Brien tells Ali Velshi that with abortion becoming a highly politicized issue, she wanted to show "who are the actual people in these clinics, and what they do day in and day out." The documentary's focus on providers and patients, rather than higher level discussions of policy, O'Brien explains, aims to provide "a more nuanced picture of what's actually happening" in post-Roe America.

Newsom's morality is his problem. So the only case for him is that "HE CAN WIN."

Much of this lies in his white male bland handsomeness. Centrists think that solves Dems' "cultural issues."

What this gets wrong is that 2028 must be about corruption. And he's on the opposite side of that.

Trump said last year that he would focus on deporting immigrants who were violent criminals. But a study of arrests in major operations in DC, LA, Illinois and Massachusetts shows that the vast majority of those swept up by ICE have no criminal record.
