I am outside Roosevelt now, my daughter goes there. Talked to staff, ICE was in a car pursuit of someone and they crashed and went up on school property. Teachers formed a circle around the person to protect them. Ice releases tear gas and took two people
We are getting reports of Border Patrol activity near Roosevelt High School in Minneapolis that happened during dismissal time today. Bystanders say officers shoved, tackled bystanders and handcuffed 2 school staff

DHS, ICE, DoD, HHS, AID, EPA...every day, Trump is murdering people, maiming them, making them suffer. The administration has zero accomplishments. But it has a growing death toll, at home and abroad. Trump, Noem, Homan, Miller, Rubio, Hegseth, Kennedy, Oz, Zeldin all have blood on their hands.

The same people who yesterday were dismissive of when the Capitol police got the shit kicked out of them by a bloodthirsty mob are today claiming a bunch of unharmed ICE goons were in mortal danger from one woman.

Basic media literacy: there are multiple clips out there showing this shooting, mostly up close and unobstructed (except by the car itself). Trump’s social media post includes a clip from far away, through trees, and slowed to super slow motion.

Those are *choices*

I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.

This week in the Trump admin:

Hegseth started an illegal war for oil in Venezuela.

Stephen Miller threatened to take over Greenland.

RFK Jr. slashed childhood vaccine recs.

ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis.

What will it take for Republicans to stand up to this?

"The illegal attack on Venezuela is not foreign policy; it’s gangsterism on an international scale," said Graham Platner, a military veteran and Democratic US Senate candidate from Maine who aims to oust "spineless" Republican Sen. Susan Collins.

If people can persuade more Republicans to vote for—can't even believe I have to say this—a prohibition on invading Greenland without Congressional approval, that would be meaningful (if not a guarantee Trump won't anyway)

I hear Susan Collins is concerned. bsky.app/profile/eric...
This brings to three the number of GOP congressfolk I’ve seen speak out against the Greenland bullshit of late, joining Sen. Moran and a House member whose name escapes me who co-heads Congressional Friends of Denmark with Hoyer. Have I missed anyone?
Bacon on the administration's rhetoric about Greenland: "This is one of the silliest things I've heard come out of the White House in the last year. It's unacceptable and I hope other Republicans line up behind me and make it clear to the White House that it's wrong."

Make no mistake: this has nothing to do with supposed "fraud" or any other excuse Trump whips up. This is about enacting revenge on states that stand up to him and his cruel agenda.

NO KINGS
In the last several weeks Trump and his regime have essentially announced that they now view Trump as Emperor of the Americas, including the United States of America; and they are no longer bound by Constitution, domestic US law, the UN Charter, International Law, and Senate-ratified treaties.
Here is the Trump Doctrine, as articulated by Stephen Miller in his truly frightening interview with Jake Tapper this afternoon. It is very much like the doctrine of the dictators we fought and defeated in World War II and of Putin today. It is un-American at its very core.

Let me get this straight: the Trump Administration is “running” Venezuela while millions of Americans are facing higher health care costs and losing coverage at home.

How is that America First?

100% illegal and they need to pay for their crimes and we need to get back to a law abiding country!
The Trump regime claims they are legally justified in attacking Venezuela and kidnapping Maduro.

As a human rights lawyer, I break down the 4 major flaws with their argument. This is an illegal act under US & international law, period.

Listen to the panic of this moment as #ICE shoots into her car with kids inside.

How can anyone think that this is acceptable?

It's absolutely repugnant.

#ICELawlessness is happening again & again.

Just about every attack is being done without warrants on innocent people by anonymous thugs.

Bernie: Trump is failing in his job to “run” the United Stares of America. He should not be trying to “run” Venezuela.

💯💯💯💯💯

Good to see this statement. He’s right.

President Trump: Do your job!!!!
Trump campaigned on an “America First” platform. Now he wants to "run" Venezuela?

60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Health care is collapsing. Housing is unaffordable.

Trump should address these major crises at home and end his illegal military adventurism abroad.
