Wait, Mississippi? Again? Highest murder rate of all 50 states? Must be in all those blue trailer parks. Because that's a thing.

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.

Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

Really listen to it.

Yes. Good. More. Everywhere.
Community members in Minneapolis surround ICE agents as they conduct a "citizenship test" on a brown-skinned man pumping gas at a gas station, ultimately forcing the agents back into their cars.

Chris Murphy is right. Trying to take Greenland by force would mean the United States would end up at war against Europe. It’s insanity.
I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

Hi folks, I'm seeing a lot of "Eyes on Minneapolis" & "We support Minnesota" sentiment. Here's a tangible way you can help:

Trump just suspended federal funding for SNAP benefits to Minnesota. Second Harvest Heartland is an MN-based hunger-relief org.

Please donate what you can.

Word to the wise: even if you aren't in a city under direct attack yet, you want to be developing these sorts of relationships NOW with sympathetic folks at local institutions.

You want to have those numbers in your phone ready for when you have to send exactly these sorts of texts.
Absolutely insane that my life has become texting with local church pastors to try and find a safe place to hold an emergency meeting for parents at my kid’s’ preschool to figure out how to respond to the federal government kidnapping neighbors.

It's so cool how dedicated everyone in power is to the ideal of making life worse for everyone below them, and to never suffering consequences for doing so. Can't wait to see how that works out for all of them

I keep thinking about how a young woman DoorDash driver was charged and hauled into court for recording and posting evidence of her customer sexually harassing her, while nothing is happening to the droves of men using Grok to sexually harass women and children. The institutions are pro-perpetrator.

The tragic death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year old mother fatally shot by ICE, shows that ICE can’t be reformed and must be abolished.

I’ll be introducing the Abolish ICE Act as a step toward justice, accountability, and humanity in our immigration policy.

Time to melt ICE.

Huh, what do you a call a “democracy“ in which one political party is protected by law enforcement, while the other party fears persecution by it? 🤔

“They called the local sheriff; they showed up and were going to arrest me. These are the same people that I’m supposed to call to coordinate security or to do support when I have a town hall.”

This is one hell of a good book. Makes a great companion to Nick Mason's definitive history of the band.

Tons to talk about. I am overwhelmed with how badly these four guys got along, and yet how often they each agreed with the others criticisms after the split and during the fight.

Just so I've said it out loud - my prediction is that sometime in the next six months, an ICE agent is gonna get clapped. Hard.

And like Reagan's California, Trump is suddenly going to be pushing hard on gun control, blaming Antifa this time instead of the Black Panthers.
