Today’s march took the same Fifth Ave route as the 1917 anti-lynching Silent Parade, one of the first American civil rights protests. Both started at 59th, by General Sherman’s statue, and headed downtown. For more on the Silent Parade: hyperallergic.com/naacp-silent...

They're threatening to kill more of us if we call them murderers. Only a murderer levels that kind of threat.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

“Someone at the puppy-kicking factory killed a protester!”
“That’s outrageous. We need to train the puppy-kickers.”
“Train them in what?”
“You know. Professionalism. More humane methods of kicking.”
“More humane…Shouldn’t we stop kicking puppies?”
“Come on, don’t be an extremist.”

Chris Murphy: "The amount of training that's given to an ICE officer has been cut in half by this administration. The number of days of training they get are 47. You know why they get 47 days? As an homage to the vanity of POTUS. No wonder the number of violent incidents are going through the roof."

The vast amount of money that was made from buying and selling human beings still exists today. We’re surrounded by it. It sits in the bank accounts and investment portfolios of the rich who’ve touted it for generations as proof that they work harder than the rest of us.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey says 29 people were arrested in downtown last night during a noise demonstration at a hotel reportedly housing ICE agents: "For those that are taking the bait and causing property damage or otherwise, there are consequences. We're holding the line here all the way."

The MPD union, at least, has made it clear which side they are on.
This is the cost of DECADES of (everyone, everywhere) refusing to deal with the rising right-wing and white-nationalist involvement in policing.

For a Minnesotan to end an interaction by saying "I hope you have a terrible day" requires an incredibly focused effort to overcome our cultural inclination toward passive aggression. You have to really suck to receive that kind of comment.
The MAGA regime is currently doubling down on its tactical stance of “we will kill women like dogs for merely displeasing us.”

NEW: China is testing a megawatt-scale airborne wind system that captures stronger high-altitude winds, potentially producing up to 10× more energy with 40% less material and 30% lower costs. It could also be quickly deployed to supply emergency power after disasters.
