i think this MLK day the thing to focus on is the strategic focus and tactical brilliance of the civil rights movement and the way it was laser focused on a set of achievable goals

This leads me to believe that up until this meeting, Trump absolutely thought it was "hole milk."
Trump: "It's actually a legal definition -- 'whole milk.' And it's whole with a W for those of you that have a problem."

The history books for this era will be overstuffed, certainly, but they should make room for an acknowledgement that Dr. Steve Brule is criminally underappreciated.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

There is a crisis of impunity. The Musk/Grok stuff is just one f many examples of people who are counting on there never being any consequences. And it all makes me just incandescently mad.

Nevermind the excellent return on investment for preventing the permanent poisoning of children and others!
States say they need more help replacing lead pipes. Congress may cut the funding instead.

The U.S. House voted to cut millions promised for the work this year. The Senate will vote this week, as advocates and some lawmakers push back.

It's pretty wild too that our president was best friends with a child sex trafficker and pedophile for over a decade! But he knows nothing!
Pretty willd how the DOJ just straight up stopped releasing the Epstein files even though they're legally obligated to do so.

Someone sent me this video of Trump’s goons in action today in the Twin Cities. The audio is disturbing.

Always be ready! Whistle up!
I went to the gym and ran some errands. Saw some people out there distributing whistles and materials to help people assert their rights when dealing with ICE. New York isn't even a major focal point of Trump's masked agents, but the grassroots resistance is growing around the country.

My non-expert opinion as a mom: The most appropriate place for a child is to feel protected and in a routine with their parent. If there's no threat to the child's safety, then hell yeah, keep them together. It's called humanity, and that's good for rehabilitation and development (I'd assume).
As more women enter state prisons while pregnant, lawmakers are expanding prison nursery programs, betting that keeping mothers and infants together can reduce trauma and recidivism — even as critics question whether any prison can ever be an appropriate place for a child.

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Yeah, but it's your job to tell facts, right? And you're omitting facts about a cover-up and lies.

Your reminder that what happened to Renee Nicole Good is something that happens regularly in America. This is not new, but it is an expanded version of militarized people targeting Black people in particular.
From ICE detention to murder with impunity, we've been doing it. Now it's broadened.
