I’m glad that Congresswoman Omar is safe.

Our state has been shattered by political violence in the last year. The cruel, inflammatory, dehumanizing rhetoric by our nation’s leaders needs to stop immediately.

Five-year-old US citizen deported to Honduras is latest in long list of child victims of Trump’s crackdown.

The girl and her mother were held for almost a week in a hotel 80 miles from their home, without access to a lawyer or a hearing before a judge, before being deported.

Democrats won both special elections held in Minnesota on Tuesday, 1/27/2026, for state House seats, resulting in a 67-67 tie and reversing a temporary 67-65 Republican majority.

Justice is served.

Top House Democrats on Tuesday told Donald Trump to fire Kristi Noem or they would launch impeachment proceedings against the homeland security secretary, in response to the weekend killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.

These days it’s: ’What are we gonna do about mass Gestapo shooting American citizens?,’ Norton said.

”What they're doing in Minnesota with the strike needs to expand.”

”We should be talking about a national general economic strike until this is over.”

ICE & U.S. Customs & Border Protection employed at least 30 people with sexual & violent criminal histories in recent years.

At least 20 agents committed offenses with underage victims. The bulk of abuse happened within the last two years.

This article includes names of the agents.
Here’s How Many ICE and CBP Agents Allegedly Preyed on Children
Apparently the institutions are riddled with accused sex criminals.

“Make no mistake, the terror we are experiencing is being subsidized by our own government. Nurses, know that our vision for a healthy society is possible and we will not stop fighting until it is a reality.”

“When the world moves too fast…
introduce yourself
to each color of the sunset,
ground yourself to the grass
beneath your feet,
write in a journal,
call a friend, rest
You’re allowed to put the world down, for awhile
For now, breathe & just be.”
Good morning, loves.

True to form, Trump and his cronies have found their ideal scapegoat, Alex Pretti, whom Noem has dubbed a "terrorist." Except that the videos reveal a completely different story, but the truth has never been their priority.

I am seeing quite a few nurses calling for a nationwide strike over the killing of Alex Pretti. I think we are seeing one of the largest workforces being radicalized before our very eyes.

Another pet peeve: Under Trump, the term "diplomat' has come to mean unqualified, ignorant hack.

It is like the way "patriot" has come to mean anti-American, pro-fascist bigot.

Orwellian double-speak is the official language of the Trump Administration.
