Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.
The intense fallout from the killing of Alex Pretti has forced President Trump to publicly change course in Minneapolis.
Listen to our White House reporters discuss the changes on today's episode of "The Daily."

I have sciatica, so I have to periodically stand up to stretch my muscles. It's not always an expression of my personal beliefs.

A large vigil and protest for Alex Pretti is under way near the VA hospital in Portland, Oregon. I'm on the ground with @contrariannews.org

I am. But there are three things at play here regarding ICE collecting private data. Quick rundown on the issue, why you should be paying attention, and what I'm doing about it:
So which politician is calling for the dismantling of the probably illegal database that ice & this government is collecting biometric data of protesters?

Timberwolves (and Warriors) players should jump for the opening tip, and then lead “ABOLISH ICE” chants and exchange 24-second shot-clock violations for the entire game.

The Bucks refusing to play after Jacob Blake's murder was a pivotal domino in 2020 rebellions.
The Timberwolves have a home game today and Monday.
A wildcat strike from the team in solidarity with the general strike and as a call for ICE out of the city would go a LONG way right now.

The Warriors would 100% join in in whatever form of protest the Timberwolves have planned. It’s big statement time.
The Minnesota Timberwolves absolutely need to postpone their game today.
Stop pretending everything is normal.

The Timberwolves host the Warriors in a few hours. The players should boycott. Kerr needs to get in front of a mic (I know he will because he’s not afraid to speak up.)

I’ve seen enough of this lineup. It’s great to have three Remix guys who can contribute, but maybe not all at the same time in the 4th quarter of a close game.

His not being impeached by the end of the business day as a result of this threat is as much a problem as the threat itself. It’s not just Trump that the world has to worry about, it’s a GOP that supports him and Democrats who suck their thumbs and refuse to even discuss pushing to remove him

I love watching the opposing players shake hands after an NBA game. So many of them know each other from college, international competition, or maybe just the NBA but it’s fun to watch the interactions right after a hard-fought game.
