Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why? They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

The best tool we have to push CEOs to take on the president and prevent further erosion of the American brand is in our pockets — an economic strike that builds on calls for Apple boycotts that are already starting to emerge.

We need to get tactical. If OpenAI’s revenue falls by 2%, it will make a difference. The best way to ignite positive change is to carry out an economic strike the tech CEOs can’t ignore.

Targeting big tech will have bigger impact with less consumer disruption, says Leia.

A one-day slowdown is irritating. A one-month slump is terrifying. With support for abolishing ICE growing and a bipartisan backlash prompting Trump to at least feign a more conciliatory approach in Minnesota, this is the moment to exert pressure. bit.ly/4aoo0an

Trump cares most about the markets. The best strategy is to opt out. We’re asking you to join a monthlong national economic strike targeting tech and AI companies. www.resistandunsubscribe.com

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

A Minneapolis nurse filmed a widely circulated video showing a U.S. Border Patrol agent repeatedly kneeing a man in the face. Her video shows five Border Patrol agents restraining a man in the middle of Chicago Avenue near 24th Street. 📸: Monica Bicking

Despite snow and frigid temperatures, anti-ICE protests continued Sunday at the Whipple Federal Building at Fort Snelling. The Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office recently began positioning its deputies between protesters and federal agents. 📸: Jeff Wheeler/The Minnesota Star Tribune

Schumer Has Betrayed Us for the Last Time; We Need New Leadership www.commondreams.org/opinion/schu...

UPDATE — Here are the at least 10 congressional Democrats, 5 Democratic-aligned organizations, and 6 Democratic Senate candidates calling for Chuck Schumer to resign as leader:

TONGHT NYC It’s cold and it’s damp, so come warm yourself with some laughs and movie trivia tonight at The Loft at @CityWineryNYC. Joining me for DOUG LOVES MOVIES tonight are @JoeyBragg @Thezog @katemicucci and @joshgondelman !!! citywinery.com/new-york-cit...

dems, 2009: we can't do shit we only have 59 senators dems, 2025: we can't stop them they have 52 senators

If we go on strike, our union of 12,000 workers are calling on customers to NOT BUY STARBUCKS. Sign our pledge to not cross a picket line and we'll send you local calls to action - nocontractnocoffee.org

Unless you convene a meeting to oust Schumer and Durbin, this is just lip service, @markey.senate.gov and @warren.senate.gov. It's what I told your offices when I called today, and it's what everyone else in MA who is furious should do, too

Resign right now, you useless, ineffective, Quisling little coward. Go count your money and get out of the way for someone who cares about saving America from this tyranny. You did this, and we all know it.

This is a civil war. Lincoln had McClellan, Hooker and Pope. He junked them for Grant, Sherman and Sheridan We have Schumer, Durbin and Cortez Masto in our leadership. Act Blue, lose my fucking number until we're clean of generals who can't fight or discipline the troops. No cash for this shit.

Too late. We were offering a metaphor for 1933-1934. It's now 1937 in these United States.

I like to think this Riyadh festival is a big Ocean’s 11 style caper designed to help Pete Davidson avenge his father.

We’re done being treated like disposable pawns. Trump’s threats to fire federal workers during a shutdown are reckless and we’re fighting back in court. Workers keep this country running. We won’t back down.✊ seiu.co/3Kyzm1c

Pro-Trump billionaires now own X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, the Washington Post, CBS, Fox, and the WSJ. And it's about to get worse. Trump wants China to sell TikTok to a couple of pro-Trump billionaires who could do to it what Elon did to Twitter messagebox.substack.com/p/does-maga-...

“Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets,” a statement from the company read.

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments. that fox news host still has his job.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Just so I'm clear: TV host says we should kill every homeless person? No big deal TV host says the right must "go to war" with the left? Pfft. TV host says the government is cracking down on critics? Well, the government cracks down on him for the criticism. Free speech, everyone.

Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin? TRUMP: I'm not familiar. The who?

We don’t celebrate his death, but we won’t hide the truth about his life.

Hey @thejoedante.bsky.social and @mickgarris.bsky.social I'm using BlueSky for the first time to try and get to the bottom of this cuz I can't find any info about it online. In this shot from The Howling, clearly Mick Garris is on the couch but is the woman an uncredited cameo by Monique Gabrielle?!

Aw, this sucks. His X-Files score is one of the great TV scores, I think. An example of using way less to do way more, and when the show needed Snow to lay on things a little more heavily, he was more than up to the task. RIP. variety.com/2025/artisan...

The best way to reduce the cost of Medicaid is to name and shame big employers that pay their full time employees so little, they qualify for Medicaid

I hope they can dodge bullets, if some asshole wants to shoot at me or other protesters I will return the favor. Like I have been saying shit is going to get real. "Shoot a couple': MAGA activists call for violence against 'No Kings' protesters www.alternet.org/maga-activis...

Newsom: I told the president, just get it over with. Arrest me. Move on. If you need someone’s head to scalp, then do it with me. But stop messing with these kids. Stop messing with four-year-olds. Kids in elementary school

I'd *like* to be extremely concerned about the marines being deployed to an American city and the scientific committee that determines vaccine schedules being disbanded, but I'm gonna hold off until the Distraction Knowers give the okay

LAPD when they think nobody is watching

Things pretty suck right now, but music will help pull us through. Check out this tune by the great Steve Earle. youtu.be/3aeqGex645Y?...

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

Unbelievable! Today, San Diego witnessed a government-sanctioned kidnapping. ICE stormed Buona Forchetta in military gear ripping workers away, then unleashing tear gas and smoke on the terrified community. Full on police state, fascism now used on American citizens. Stay aware. #OnYourSide
