A letter from the mother of Alex Pretti, six months after he was murdered by ICE.

An amazing quote from Lindsey Graham in this Atlantic story. It really captures an essential truth about politics that too few people ever really come to terms with. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Just a reminder that patriotism isn't holding a bible and wrapping yourself in the flag while you violate the Constitution and plunder the country. Happy 4th of July, stay cool and safe!!

Earlier this month, the federal government moved the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services out of the purview of the Department of Education. Minnesota-based PACER Center said the move will have a negative impact on families.

Democratic socialists are not communists

Vote Democratic Socialism, health care, social security, child care, education funding, gender and racial equality etc etc and etc.

dog shit country, truly

Congrats DR Congo! They had to quarantine in Belgium before the World Cup due to the devastating Ebola outbreak, yet still made it to the knockout stage for the first time in history!

The UN's top human rights official is demanding independent investigations into deaths inside US immigration detention, and says those responsible for breaking the law must be held to account. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Today, I introduced legislation to require that the minimum wage be a living wage. $25 an hour is what’s required for a full time worker to pay their bills, and we shouldn’t accept that full time work leaves people living in poverty.

The problem we encounter is not only the racist claim that Black “history is not substantial enough to remember & to call human history,” but that what has been called civilization, patriotism, & progress requires its denigration & ultimate annihilation.

sometimes i am struck by the sheer wickedness of this man

If Congress doesn't act now, Social Security benefits could be cut by more than 20 percent after 2032. Senator Bernie Moreno and I have a bipartisan solution: lift the Social Security payroll tax cap. We need to save Social Security for the next generation. Let's get this done.

noticing a lot of people forgot what our greatest modern philosopher said about patriotism

17 June 1933 | An Italian Jewish girl, Emma Terracina, was born in Rome. She was deported to #Auschwitz from Rome on 18 October 1943 and murdered in a gas chamber after selection on 23 October. --- ▶ A short video showing the ruins of gas chamber and crematorium III: https://bit.ly/4ql4LTV

24 detainees were loaded onto today's ICE Air flight at MSP, which we're recording and sharing as usual, despite the DOJ's attempt at intimidating fellow Minnesotans with frivolous charges. We're still here. We're still watching. Fuck ICE. 🧵👇

On an average day under Trump, ICE has 25 children aged 3 or younger in custody. In total, at least 500 babies and toddlers have been detained. Via @themarshallproject.org bit.ly/4478hsm

June 11, 1963 should be up there with Dec 7, 1941 in popular memory as 1 of the key dates in 20th century U.S. history because of 3 major events: George Wallace’s “stand in the schoolhouse door”; JFK’s civil rights address to the nation; &, shortly after midnight, the assassination of Medgar Evers.

It's not enough to condemn the mistreatment of migrants or violence against them. Democrats in the US and Labour in the UK need to embrace immigration as welcome and necessary. Change the narrative.

5 June 1933 | Dutch Jewish girl, Hilde Münz, was born in Heerlen. She was deported to #Auschwitz from #Westerbork in August 1942. She was murdered in a gas chamber after arrival selection. --- ▶ Video about the first two gas chambers created near Auschwitz II-Birkenau: https://youtu.be/Rr6lF75fDmU

Starting Thursday, there is — for the first time — an official YouTube channel dedicated to the work of Fred Rogers, the beloved children’s TV host. Eventually it will be a repository for full episodes, behind-the-scenes footage and compilations.

Last thing before I log off: I see everyone screaming about a pedophile in the White House. That's abhorrent. But adult women matter, too. E. Jean Carroll matters as much as Epstein's victims did. If the only time you care about violence against women is when children are involved, that's bad.

The model of gas chamber and crematorium II from Auschwitz II-Birkenau. The crematorium was equipped with five 3-muffle ovens capable of burning 1,440 corpses in 24 hours. The undressing space & 210 sq. meter gas chamber were located underground. --- Photos: https://www.instagram.com/hendryck.pahk/

Instead of trying to eliminate birthright citizenship guaranteed in the Constitution, we should pass a constitutional amendment prohibiting felons from serving as president

My god, Octavia Butler, just miss ONCE

2 June 1931 | A Dutch Jewish boy, Josua Boesenach, was born in The Hague. In November 1943 he was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber.

FYI ! Thanks, Andrea.......

GENEVA (AP) - WHO chief says Ebola outbreak in Congo is spreading rapidly and now poses a 'very high risk' at the national level. @apnews.com

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

yes. change the statute on which this decision turned and redistrict according to the legitimacy conferred by the people of the state

Six months ago, the federal government indicted me, my friend Andre, and four others for protesting ICE. Our trial is this month and we are facing up to $250k in legal debt. Please help us win our case and protect all of our rights by donating to our legal defense: tinyurl.com/katandre

Let’s all post it and see if they indict all of us.

Yahya & his family of 11 were displaced from their home in Beit Hanoun & are now sheltering in Mawasi. Since September, they've been forced to find safety more than a dozen times. Today, WCK meals are their main source of food—a source of comfort & stability when so much is uncertain. #ChefsForGaza

Breaking: Trump orders the dismantling of the US Forest Service. All regional offices are being shut down and the research program destroyed.
