This is Minneapolis:

Walk into my neighborhood ACE last night & see the signage on their door notifying fed agents that it’s private property and cannot be used for immigration enforcement. These signs are all over the city.

Walk in & the nearest shelf has goggles & whistles.

I'm with Jake here: in fact I'm very surprised that anyone can see it otherwise. From where I am (given the information I am seeing etc) it seems *obvious* that the talk of a vibe-shift was dramatically mistaken and Americans have both in response to polling questions and on the street been furious.
I see this take around from time to time and totally disagree. ICE just murdered a woman standing up to them. No Kings is among the largest protests in history.

The complacency is coming from elites in media, business, universities, and the Democratic leadership

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

as an estonian, i'm honestly relieved to see this, we are usually allergic to even mild public disagreement with washington. our leaders do NOT tweet against the US unless something is Very Wrong
As world leaders have become increasingly concerned about President Trump’s intentions with respect to Greenland, heads of government — such as the Prime Minister of Estonia — are expressing their solidarity with Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark.

My theory is that Trump decided a week ago to declare war on Venezuela in a televised national address, but then got talked out of it by cooler heads and decided to keep the valuable airtime

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

This is how you do it.
In South Minneapolis, Minnesota, nearly two dozen neighbors confronted and surrounded ICE goons after rapid-response alerts were issued. The goons were questioning an East African man when the situation escalated, and they eventually left the area without making any arrests.

It seems all too obvious that Trump is on Donanemab, given monthy via IV. That would explain the hand bruising. It would also explain the MRI, since it can cause bleeding in the brain that can be seen on MRI scans.

This is smart, necessary and I'm honestly shocked to see it.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
