The world may have moved on from Minneapolis but its immigrant community continues to struggle. We spoke to single mothers who hid from ICE for months, ran through their savings, and now can’t pay to renew their DACA applications. At least dozens are in this situation. 19thnews.org/2026/07/ice-...

THE ODYSSEY's instantly, predictably enormous success is Exhibit #32176 that the right wing's grievance-farming operation is not some great American cultural shift. Most people don't give a shit about their petty crusades.

Quest for Fire when I was 9 years old. My 11 year old brother threw a tantrum when mom and dad wouldn't take him to see it. The tantrum worked, and I maneuvered it into allowing BOTH of us to go. My nine-year-old's review: I got to see many butts.

Do you remember what *your* first R-rated movie was? I finally asked my mom (I couldn't remember), and she told me it was The Lost Boys when I was roughly the same age as my daughter (about 9). The movie traumatized her more than it did me, apparently

I'm thinking now of the period in our near future when we're digging up the mass graves underneath these facilities and fanning ourselves with talcum-powdered hankies in bewilderment at how we ever could've suspected our worst fears were happening.

ICE has killed another person, this time by depriving him of life-sustaining medication for a known medical condition. Jesus Manuel Arenas-Silva was detained on Thursday. He was dead by Monday. Per @detentionwatchnetwork.org:

Just last week, the Trump admin halted the project to put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill. Now, they're all too happy to stroke Trump's ego & put his face on a coin. Our currency should honor the best of America, not those who've done everything to destroy its founding promise. We will fight this.

*deep breath, squinting at character limit* Using AI to make images of E. Jean Carroll celebrating her victory against Trump is a further depersonalization & victimization of an assaulted woman, and only deepens the general lack of consent and autonomy granted to women in our culture.

Here's how you know they're racists: they try to vocally defend things hundreds of years removed from their ascendence. Because they recognize THEMSELVES in the people who wrote laws we all know were bad, racist, evil.

You do not take healthcare from people because you don't like how they voted. Healthcare is a human right. You do not take food from people because of how they voted. Food is a human right. You do not take human rights from people, ever, for anything.

Hi as a queer trans man who has never left rural areas and spent a third of his life as a political and community organizer in the rural south you do not take food from the mouths of children because of the sins of the parents unless you're a fucking fascist.

Thanking my predictive brain for thinking "well....nah" a few weeks back when I was tempted to order Taco Bell.

They kidnapped and terrorized Liam Ramos, a little boy in a blue bunny hat. They’ve ripped newborns from their mother’s arms. Today they forced a little girl with a pink backpack to watch her father die. They shot him right in front of her. Abolish ICE now.

wabe.orgICE shot and killed a motorist in Maine. Advocates say he's a 26-year-old from ColombiaA federal immigration officer fatally shot a motorist in Maine on Monday, the second time in a week that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have used deadly force and at least the ninth t...

Last time this happened, the fascists were surprised at the outrcry and backlash. They couldn't believe we'd keep it up, that our minds wouldn't change. They couldn't understand why we don't want the same people dead that they want dead. So we'll show them again.

It really is that simple: there's no reason for an agency tasked with "Immigration and Customs Enforcement" to function as a gestapo that invades neighborhoods and shoots people. Why do they have military weapons and use military tactics? They're supposed to be paperwork clerks.

On the scene here in Biddeford where ICE shot and killed someone this morning. Still so many unknowns. Let me be clear: Federal immigration enforcement should NOT be using deadly force against anyone in our communities. Period. We need a full, independent investigation, and we need answers.

I’ll remind everyone that the Alex Pretti murder began with a Latino guy going to pick up an app donut delivery, ICE agents eyeballed the guy, and started chasing. It was Latino ICE guys racially profiling another Latino guy. ICE isn’t doing anything but driving around looking to make quotas.

David J. Bier@davidjbier.bsky.social

ICE shooting victim in Maine was a 26-year-old man from Colombia with work authorization and a Social Security Number, likely an asylum applicant. It'll be interesting to see how he came to be on ICE's radar.

I can't believe people are going to have to go through the struggle, the heartbreak, and the hard work that happened this winter all over again, because bootlickers killed another person. But then, I wasn't alive for the civil rights era, so I guess is also part of me shedding my softness.

ICE has fatally shot 11 people since Donald Trump's second term began. These are not isolated incidents. They are the predictable result of a cruel, violent system. Abolish ICE.

Mad that she's not satisfied by having suppressed the report she's going to try to press the matter to the courts anyway

Miffythegamer@miffythegamer.bsky.social

In my opinion, this is litigious thuggery. Amnesty spoke their truth and it hurt the feelings of the anti-trans brigade. TERFs destroy everything they touch. I mean, imagine suing Amnesty, of all organisations?

Six months after Renee Good and Alex Pretti were killed at the hands of federal agents, this is long overdue but offers a hint of accountability. Minnesotans will continue to demand justice for the horror the Trump Administration brought to our streets. www.startribune.com/renee-good-a...

I don’t ever wanna hear what “ICE says” about any fucking incident they’re involved in. You might as well tell me what an old hot dog says about it. Like just dig a moldy wiener out of the trash and ask it what happened. The answer will be more honest and less insulting.
