This old dog was on the streets last night. She has been battling and a kind lady spotted her and called us.

She's weak and it'll take a long time to fix her but she's taking some big steps already. A gentle little soul who is safe now!

There is NOTHING ‘America First’ about selling out some of our most pristine waters so a Chilean mining company can come in, take our minerals, ship them to China for processing, then sell them off.

All while polluting the Boundary Waters in the process.

This Administration’s attacks on Minnesota continue, this time by threatening to allow copper-sulfide mining in the watershed of the Boundary Waters when a majority of Minnesotans have made it clear they don't want this mine.

Not this mine. Not this place. Keep public lands in public hands.

She fell off a bridge after being scared by a truck.

The last 2 months have been hard with her confidence shot. But things have changed a lot. Her tail is wagging, she is coming alive again and she has even found love.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

The House chamber was mostly empty. I’m unsure how many will ultimately hear it.

But I spoke today to sound an alarm for our nation.

To alert the country of the wholesale corruption engulfing our government & the work we must do end it.

I hope my fellow Americans will listen.

⛓️CONCENTRATION CAMPS & INCINERATORS—D.H.S. is setting up a huge network of camps. They are converting the U.S. as a region for ‘expeditionary military deployment’ & no-bid no-public-comment contracts to build a “ghost network” of 10,000-person concentration camps. Jesus. Thread 🧵

a woman reached out to donate 500,000 delta skymiles to get people home to MN as they are released from custody in TX.

we're getting flights booked today. it should be enough to get at least 15 people home.

delta should be doing for free since they take ICE money.

We’ve been on the streets all day with @bradlander.bsky.social and because we had so many patrols out, multiple abductions were prevented.

The world is looking to us for inspiration, and we will keep showing them how we show up for our neighbors.

Funding the govt is one of the few "must-pass" bills that still exists. It's therefore one of the very few leverage points that Democrats have given that they don't control either chamber of Congress.

Anything that keeps DHS going under the status quo gives up that leverage and allows more killings
THUNE acknowledges Democrats have raised an “objection” that halts DHS funding. He says he’ll “reserve optionality” to pursue 5 bills + a DHS CR, keeping that door open to avoid a shutdown. But he makes clear he prefers the existing package of all 6 approps bills.

Congress is debating whether to give DHS additional funding for immigration enforcement, but ICE and CBP have only spent a fraction of its staggering budget – much of it on a violent crackdown on immigrants and protesters. Here are the numbers. 1/23
