Just off a call with an important reminder: We like to look at the history of Germany to explain our current situation. We need to thoroughly look at our OWN history. That's how we got here!

Despite how fucking insane the past week or so has been, Senate Democrats got a war powers resolution through from the minority & House Democrats got a 7th discharge petition through & are about to pass extending the ACA subsidies with a sizable chunk of Republicans despite being in the minority.

Weird how it is the children in this video that are described by conservatives as "invaders"

BREAKING: ICE and Border Patrol were filmed outside a Minneapolis high school pepper-spraying students as armed agents swarmed the entrance. Staff tried to force them off campus. Kids ran in panic. Trump removed school protections. This is state violence against children

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

"That means the BCA will no longer have access to the case materials, scene evidence or investigative interviews necessary to complete a thorough and independent investigation, the state agency said."
Let's call a spade a spade: Kristi Noem watched the videos and doesn't want an impartial investigation because she knows her narrative about domestic terrorism is bullshit. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
FBI takes over investigation into fatal shooting of Renee Good
State investigators say they are off the case, and the FBI is now solely in charge.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

HuffPost has obtained a video of a physician trying to give medical care to the woman shot and killed by ICE goons today, and not being allowed to go near her. The ICE agents claim there are medics on site, but witnesses scream that there are no medics present

I am already seeing reporters parrot DHS's version of the story, which is journalistic malpractice. Every story they spun about being under threat in Chicago was either seriously undermined by subsequently revealed evidence or outright proven false in court. Lying is ALWAYS their first move.

I'm in Minneapolis a few blocks away, this is real. EMTs were doing CPR to revive the victim and get them to the hospital a little over an hour ago. Bovino arrived on the scene, sheriff and PD are already saying not them, the shooter was a fed. Walz has already made a statement, he's *pissed*.

A US citizen has apparently been shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis. I’m gathering information, but the situation on the ground is volatile.

-Mileage may vary at this time, and the news sucks. Apparently they also drew down on a physician who was attempting first aid, and didn't let anyone near the car for 10 minutes. Minnesota Public Radio is on it right now. Bovino is supposedly on scene.

Reports in Minneapolis that ICE shot an observer. UNCONFIRMED status of victim. ICE status remains the same - a band of domestic terrorists.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured.
Trump then pardoned the attackers.
He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.
