Saw the #WreckingCrew. Didn't expect much, but Bautista and Mamoa were a fun pairing! Well defined characters and a good backstory made this action movie more interesting than most. And the violence was... creative. Worth a watch if you like action/comedy.

Melanie Stansbury: “Arresting journalists.
Raiding election offices.
Invading American cities.
Committing violence against our own people.

The worst of what we feared is here — it’s time for any of my colleagues sitting on the sidelines to do something & stand up”

Terrorism is the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to induce fear, intending to coerce governments or societies to achieve political, religious, or ideological goals. It often targets civilians and critical infrastructure to disrupt safety and advance specific agendas.

What a sad day- losing the wonderful Catherine O’Hara. Loved her since first seeing her on SCTV. May she rest in peace.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Criminalizing protest is a hallmark of repression. This case isn’t isolated. It’s part of a broader effort to silence dissent and erode democracy.

But despite the administration’s best efforts, we’re going to win.

Stella Carlson documented the murder of Alex Pretti. You've seen the video. Here she speaks about the horror of his execution, the warped behavior of ICE afterwards, and (sadly) the MPD's seeming apathy toward witnesses at the scene.

Wait. Seriously? ICE is allegedly serving as security for admin at the Olympics. Aren't there actual military or law enforcement individuals that are more qualified than these violent manchild cosplayers?

“I am not surprised that ICE, in addition to lying about its murders and leading smear campaigns against its victims, is also under-reporting deaths in its custody,” said Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA).

Ask any journalist covering the Epstein files.
This isn’t left vs right.
This is about powerful people covering for themselves.
Both Republicans and Democrats are in the files.

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

"“Law enforcement” is not a noun. It is not a thing in the world. It is an action."

"People enforcing the law do not wear masks. And people wearing masks who trespass, assault, batter, and kill are not enforcing the law. They are violating it."
We have to see the logic of the killings as well as the killings themselves. The horror is a truth in itself. But it is also a sign of a political logic, one known from the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

As a broadcaster myself, I'm dumbfounded when I see a TV news anchor bringing the exact wrong energy to a story that begins with the death of a U.S. citizen. Could she be more disconnected from what's going on?

Meanwhile, the field reporter is doing everything right.

Standing for the Nat'l Anthem hits different for me now. I ❤️ my country, and I can remove my hat, listen to the words and remember what we are supposed to be. But it rings hollow, because that USA has been taken away from us. I wonder how many feel the same during that ritual. And how many r blind.

I hope Democratic senators and congressmen understand, out of pure lizard-brain self-interest if moral decency happens to be unavailable, what is at stake for them if they don't handle this the right way. This is a true "If not now, when?" moment.

The term “law enforcement” should not be used by media, except perhaps in quotations. It has sadly become an Orwellian term that is used to magically sanctify violence. Language matters. Be specific. Describe individuals with names and ranks. Say exactly what they did. Don’t repeat fascist hocum.
