Hey,

ICE shot and killed a US citizen today in Minneapolis.

I don't post political shit here but if there's ever a time to take to the streets and demand justice NOW IS THE TIME.

“'The guy, I’m telling him like, "Please step off the school grounds," and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he knocked me down,' an official at Roosevelt High School said. 'They don’t care. They’re just animals. I’ve never seen people behave like this.'"

Her vehicle's right front panel cleared the ICE agent who didn't open fire until after he was at the side of her vehicle. He used deadly force on a fleeing individual, which is against DHS policy. This is murder. He needs to be arrested.

There are three videos showing how an ICE agent killed a U.S. citizen and that hasn't slowed down the propagandists at all.

Never accept a lecture on decency, civility, or respect from a Trump supporter.

Never tolerate it.

More on Bezos from @davidfolkenflik.bsky.social

My take: It's easy to say this but there is no way today's announcement does not have a chilling effect on the newsroom. Bezos has made clear that the Washington Post exists to promote his political ideology.

Groups tied to Elon Musk have already spent more than $4.2 million on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race—a clear sign that his plans for oligarchy extend well beyond Washington.

Young voters really don't like Elon Musk.

His unfavorability is 54% with all voters. 67% with voters under 30.

Feels important for a party that needs to win a much bigger share of young voters.

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.”

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

When I hear men worshipping guns and talking about how there’s nothing that will stop them from defending their family, my mind goes to Naaman in the Bible. Do you remember Naaman? He was a great military leader, and he also had leprosy.

Trump signed a new executive order that would allow the White House to control independent agencies that have long operated outside its influence, like the FEC, FCC, FTC and SEC. It’s designed to test a once-fringe legal theory which says the president solely controls the entire executive branch.
