Justice for Renee.
An independent autopsy of Renee Good reveals that she had 3 gunshot wounds: to the left arm, right lung, and left temple that exited the right side of her head. That means the third shot, the most unlawful one, from the side, likely killed her. abc7.com/post/minneap...

Done!

Now it's your turn, friends. ❤️
Call your reps. Let them know that if they vote for ICE funding, you will not vote for them ever again.

Representatives need to feel the heat. NO on ICE funding. No excuses.
So the House is going to vote TOMORROW on the DHS funding bill that includes funding for ICE.

There's a real chance we can get Dems to vote NO on any bill with ICE funding to sink it.

Once it goes to the Senate we likely lose this chance.

24 hours. Go.

It's wild witnessing the end of the American century in real time.

It's also so painful. The values that Carney articulates, those ARE our values. That's what this voting American wants, too.

That's the place where I want to live, too.

Recently I've been spending some time with pro-democracy leaders from other countries organizing against national strongmen. Their stories of organizing against authoritarians are eerily familiar. Among the many clear takeaways: stand up to bullies and go on offense because defense doesn’t win.

$15.64/day * 4 people * 30 days/mo. = $1876.89/mo., or around 6.5 weeks of minimum wage pay.
Brooke Rollins is still at it!

"We had run almost 1,000 simulations, and between $3 and $4 is a fair number if you can have access to that food. I just saw new numbers that were run: a full day, meaning 3 full square meals and a snack, is about $15.64."

On this MLK Day, let’s remember that Dr. King believed in America not as it is, but as it could be. Hope is not passive—it’s a commitment to keep bending the arc toward justice. The promise of America is still ours to fulfill.

"Forces arrayed against the movement did not simply represent a threat to African Americans, as was the popular perception. They were a mortal danger to anyone who disagreed with them, regardless of the person’s race, background, or gender."
At the New Yorker, @jelaniya.bsky.social writes about the 1965 murder of Viola Liuzzo and the 2026 killing of Renee Good—two women who got involved in protests not because they themselves were at risk, but because they understood we must all come together to protect every member of the community.

"You know, John, I've been asked this ? many times. I used that word in response to citizens in my city being brutalized and murdered by ICE - justifiably, IMO.

"The president used that same word while flipping off an auto worker. Why don't you ask the president if HE regrets using such language?"
KARL: In the hours after the shooting of Renee Good, you went on national TV and said to ICE, 'get the F out of Minneapolis.' Do you regret that language? That doesn't sound like turning the temperature down

JACOB FREY: I don't regret it at all. If I seemed like I was angry and frustrated, I was.

If a politician can’t commit to abolishing ICE or not invading their neighbours then that person isn’t there to represent you, they’re there to occupy your spot in government while the regressives and fascists destroy what’s left of your country, terrorize your nation, and rob you blind.

Something to look forward to!
FUN FACT: Even if Trump pardons his entire administration and ICE goons, they can still be charged criminally by individual states.

But really, though -- if Trump is in a hot conflict with NATO, how can he also wage war against Americans?

Surely even the mightiest military can't sustain a war abroad and a civil war at the same time.

It's almost like he hasn't really thought this one through. 🤔

Bad things are happening.

But good things are happening, too.

Stay focused.
This is a watershed moment for Texas - for the first time ever, solar supplied more electricity than coal in 2025.

I will say it again: At this rate, TX will likely decarbonize its electricity sector faster than CA.

TX clean electricity is growing at 13%,m more than twice that of CA's at 6%.
Texas solar power surpassed coal in 2025 for the first year ever. Here's why.
In 2025 — for the first year ever — solar arrays provided more electricity to Texas’ main power grid than coal-fired power plants.

Important words.

Accountability can't wait.
Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

I am relieved to learn that this person is still alive after the shockingly brutal attack by ICE agents.

However, he is injured and has been denied medical care while in the custody of ICE.

Please share this information and, if able and inclined, donate to his GoFundMe linked in the comments.
“Join me in demanding to know where Orbin Mauricio Henríquez Serrano is. He may have taken his last breath at the hands of ICE on Jan 11 at the Speedway at the corner of Snelling & Portland in St Paul. Watch him carried away lifeless”

Did they just kill this guy?

Seeking this level of plastic surgery is a type of body dysmorphia borne from internalized misogyny. And that's deeply sad.

It's ok if your mouth doesn't mimic a blow-up doll's, ladies -- it's there for purposes other than fellatio. Like speaking out against misogyny.
They all looked normal before the surgery.
