TAPPER: They're asking for voter roll information after the death of Alex Pretti. What was it like to see that letter? SIMON: It was really deeply disturbing. Literally hours after the second killing of a citizen in Minneapolis by ICE agents, there's this ransom note

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

Walz: "We have got children in Minnesota hiding in their houses, afraid to go outside. Many of us grew up reading that story of Anne Frank. Somebody is gonna write that children's story about Minnesota."

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

Oh #tylergramlin come out come out wherever you are!! 👀

Here’s the report from KARE. The boy is five-year-old Liam Ramos.

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”

The jobs report is in. What a disaster.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

“God damn them all.”

So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

Remember when we were not losing jobs in droves, or at odds with all our allies, or attacking other nations for their resources, or deploying masked thugs to terrorize our citizens, or pardoning drug traffickers and violent criminals in exchange for bribes? It was only little over a year ago.

So I am 78. Husband 79 with multiple heart surgeries. I shoveled and salted part of our driveway yesterday. Will do more today. Still no plow to our house yet. Called Holiday Inn to see if we could change date of our reservation for tonight. Not cancel, change. Answer was no. Choose wisely.

@repmcgovern.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @markey.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov I do believe this warrants at least a Congressional hearing.

This Hasn’t Changed Any…

This is a 2018 mission, that we are now just learning about. www.weny.com/story/530601...

BRUTAL JOBS REPORT: Just 22,000 jobs added in August. Unemployment rises to 4.3%. Broader jobless rate jumps to 8.1%. Slowest 4-month growth since 2020. Plus, downward revisions for June and July of -21,000. Yikes.

Excellent question.

Apparently, thousands of Swifties posted to the effect "OMG GOOD NEWS!!!", without saying what, and a whole lot of the first comments were "Is he dead?" I was taken aback for a moment there, until I realized they were not asking about Travis.

Friday in Alaska is nothing new….

Gov. Pritzker is currently using his money to cover logistics and accommodations for the Texas Democrats who fled to Illinois to block the redistricting quorum. His story of his passion for activism against bullies is an inspiration to us.

Is she undocumented? Ghislaine Maxwell is not a U.S. citizen. She was born in France and holds British citizenship. Maxwell has lived in the U.S. for many years. She got due process, but brown ladies selling fruit do not have that luxury. We know white, er..I mean why. 🔥☕️

Fight back Democrats!! I agree with #AdamSchiff #Pinks #Proudblue

Maxwell's movement to a minimum security prison with her conviction is a blatant inequality of justice & an abuse of power! If you have friends in high places in this regime, it would seem that you could get away with anything except if one is the opposing party. Utterly shameful! #Voices4Victory

Project 2025 plans to break up and reduce the components of NOAA. But the services NOAA provides, every citizen uses every day.

I am not a lawyer, but since Pam Bondi has convicted Abrego Garcia on live television from the White House, shouldn't those charges be dropped? How does he get a fair trial now?

If Elon really wants to get back at Trump, he should reveal that he stole the election and say how he did it. #ElonandTrump

Wondering if a guy who spent 82 million on a lost election would even recognize government waste if he found it?

Disappeared Tufts Human Dev. PhD student Rumesya Ozturk is also a graduate of Teachers College - she’s a dev. psychologist studying children’s media & prosocial development. She also bakes without recipes and binge-watches cartoons. She is our colleague & she was abducted on the street w/ our tax $.

Amazing essay. Lots for most of us here to learn. 💙
