The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:
- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

The next presidential candiate for the D party better damn well making investigating and prosecuting the people who are committing these crimes one of their top priorities.
Those who won't...you will not have my vote. Plain and simple. You better think long and hard about this, campaign managers.

Who in their right mind believes statements from the Department of Homeland Security?
Who believes anything Kristi Noem or Stephen Miller or Trump might say about what has just happened in Minneapolis?
They no longer have any credibility. That should be clear by now.
They lie like they breathe.

It is not enough to get the Republicans out. We need every single complicit politician out—Democrats who feign care along with them. We need to oust the capitalist god and start running this nation as though its citizens matter.

They are targeting children because they are trying incite violence. I have talked to many journalists today, and they all made the same observation: Border Patrol and ICE have been rolling around with maximum aggression, lingering for ages as crowds, gather, seemingly trying to cause a riot.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

When the streets start telling the truth, it’s because the institutions won’t.
What’s become painfully obvious is that ICE agents aren’t trained to make us safer. They’re just recruits who thirst for power, violence, and cruelty.

There is only one satisfactory solution to the Epstein files debacle. They must be leaked in their entirety. The only redactions should be to protect victims. Otherwise a complete and full presentation is the only answer.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Someone needs to stitch together an ad with clips of Leavitt's comment that the president is focused on the Epstein Ballroom and the "Great Gatsby" party he threw there interspersed with news reports about SNAP drying up and government workers going unpaid.

This gives me hope. Courage is definitely contagious!
It's official. Nearly 7 million people. Today is the single largest day of protest in American history. Americans from all corners of the country are standing up and saying #NoKings. This is what peaceful, patriotic protest looks like.

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:
1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?
2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?
3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?
