There is absolutely no reason to follow me. I hardly even post pictures of my dog.
It's not fair but the stupid "follow back" button makes me briefly annoyed at everyone who follows me.

I lived through this buzzing from hell as well, and let me tell you, it's PTSD that I can't recover from, even after almost 10 years out of the region. Fireworks, car engine popping, airplanes flying low, all these sounds break something in me and reminds me how much Israel screwed us up.
In Lebanon. Can hear the Israeli drone constantly now. I’ve only been back for a day but folks here deal with it 24/7, for months. It’s psychological torture. You can even see it, just flying around. The Israelis want to let everyone know that they can kill whoever they want whenever they want.

it was a tough call but i have decided the worst person in the nuzzi/lizza/rfk debacle is actually keith olbermann

gleefully reveling in the downfall of your ex—who you started dating when she was 18 and you were 52—is so repugnant, not to mention tasteless...anywho, kudos to the dark horse villain

This evening, a resident was kidnapped by agents with face coverings. They disguised themselves in masks and as Uber drivers. They even left kids abandoned inside a car in the freezing cold. 1/

Think about all the evil assholes in this administration.

They *all* expect to die of old age, obscenely wealthy, surrounded by family, because that is how the US has allowed *every single previous evil asshole* to live after doing their atrocities.

They learned they will never be punished.

Moments ago: tenants of the South Shore apartment building that federal immigration agents raided at the end of September held a presser to announce they're forming a tenants union.

They're demanding, among other things, sewage removal and heat and electricity restroration.

I feel like there’s this Minnesota liberal idea that we’re in a blue state so things are better here in terms of detentions and deportations.

Our state protections aren’t strong enough!!!

Kidnapping is happening every day here!
Minnesota, we are now up to 5 detention centers.

Freeborn Co
Sherburne Co
Kandiyohi Co
Crow Wing co
NW Regional in Crookston

We started the year at 3.

They’re eyeing a huge private prison out west in Appleton.
We have updated detentionreports.com.

229 separate reports for 229 ICE detention facilities.

Attacking trans children is about attacking all children in the same way attacking trans autonomy is about attacking all bodily autonomy. Our actions are particularly powerful, autonomous and brave, and that means even well meaning ppl find us ideologically disturbing

Violence comes from police. ICE is no different.
On October 28, DHS's social media account claimed that on October 23, "rioters" had "shot at agents with commercial artillery shell fireworks," thus forcing agents to deploy tear gas and riot munitions.

Judge Ellis reviewed the video. This was completely false. The explosions were DHS's flashbangs!

“I told everybody: ‘I’m retired, I sit home all day. If we get any reports of ICE in the neighborhood, somebody text me, and I’ll run over on my scooter and go yell at them.’”

Another example of something people would actually do with universal basic income.

It’s been almost 48 hours and we still don’t know with certainty how many people were detained on Tuesday, the grounds (if any) on which they’re being held, or what will happen next for these members of our community—all of whom have families and friends and people who love them.

This isn’t normal.
