According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs.
Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵

$246 million/year, and they still are steadily complaining it is not enough. $1 billion in less than 5 years - do you understand the kind of safety that money should buy you? even if you gave violent criminals a cut of that money to just go away, you would spend less. crazy.
Biggest overspender for 2025: MPD is projected to be 19.5 million over budget. Boosted from $226m to $246m.
Biggest underspender: The department of Neighborhood Safety will be nearly $11 million under budget. Over half their $17m budget.

Fortunately it was only -5 so not super deep freeze-y.

Respectfully, Congresswoman, you voted with Republicans to strip due process from immigrants and to praise Trump's ICE. This year.
Now you're upset?
Votes have consequences. Minnesotans deserve better.

ICE agents followed a Burnsville family home from the store, failed to present a warrant and entered their home with guns drawn. They detained 4 legal citizens who presented documentation, leaving a 7 year-old without parents.
A seven-year-old. Let that sink in. Trump’s ICE is out of control.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Aurin Chowdhury rebutting Michael Rainville on his "defund the police" accusation. MPD has done nothing but ramp their budget off the chart. And then overspent that budget by $20 million. "That's the opposite of defunding the police. So let's give it a break."

In 2017, Trump called up Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte to tell him what a great job he was doing with the drug problem. Duterte told the media Trump said he did it "the right way"
Duterte is awaiting trial in Hague right now for what he did.
