Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.
This is so smart. I’m so impressed with all the different ways you’re helping your neighbors.

This is probably the most accurate description.

Someone in their mid-50s today told me that this is the first time he had thought about or been affected by politics. And that guy is actively guarding buildings and his coworkers from ICE.

At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely.

That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.

I’m one of the ProPublica reporters who has been documenting the aggressive tactics federal agents are using against immigrants & U.S. citizens

All eyes are on Minnesota right now, but I want to tell you about Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-YO citizen in Houston who was choked by immigration agents in October

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks, don't you think?
BREAKING: Listen to this.

Reporter: "Your husband bought stock in Elon Musk's xAI days before the Pentagon expanded its role. Can you assure us it wasn’t based on inside info?”

Representative Lisa McClain: “100%. If it was, we would've bought a heck of a lot more."

U.S. Senate passes Venezuela war powers resolution 52-47, backing limits to block Trump from further Venezuela military action without congressional authorization.

Ok, they’ll brand it “national security operation” then.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?
