ICE has shot and killed a community observer in Minneapolis. Sending all of my love to the people of Minneapolis and the folks defending their neighbors there. This is heinous, and I am so sorry. To everyone else: REMEMBER ICE LIES ABOUT EVERYTHING. THIS IS DOCUMENTED.

"You gonna murder someone else? You can't kill us all, Nazis."

A US citizen has apparently been shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis. I’m gathering information, but the situation on the ground is volatile. ICE should leave now for everyone’s safety.

This is what happens when untrained ICE agents who meet the lowest possible standards are sent to play action hero. A U.S. citizen was shot & killed by ICE in Minneapolis. 📌 Eyewitnesses, including a city councilman, say police shot the person in the head. That person is now dead. Read that again

Jacob Frey: "To ICE -- get the fuck out of Minneapolis"

They canceled my work on race and media. So I built a @resistanceschool.bsky.social instead. Now we are teaching over 600 students. Week 2 of Race, Media and International Affairs starts today. We move ✊🏾💪🏾

So.. officially, I'm the last Black staff columnist left in the Washington Post's opinion section.

New: The Texas Supreme Court has ruled two of Texas’ most powerful leaders do not have to release years of emails related to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and communications with gun lobbyists after the 2022 Uvalde shooting.

New: The Texas Supreme Court ruled Friday that the United Methodist Church can keep fighting for control of Southern Methodist University. The school sought to leave the church because of differences over gay marriage and clergy.

I know Jim Ryan personally, professionally, academically—and stand with him. He taught @uvalaw.bsky.social when I attended; was a Dean @harvard.edu when I was in the Gen Counsel’s Office; THEN was inaugurated UVA pres the same day I gave a talk at the Law School, so I got to celebrate w/my fmr prof.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

“The Trump administration has basically lost control of its foreign policy. Israel is now dictating U.S. policy in the Middle East. They are clearly in the driver’s seat,” @stephensemler.bsky.social of @cipolicy.bsky.social told @theintercept.com

💥 BREAKING: The Heritage Foundation withdrew its anti-DEI proposal to IBM for shareholder vote today, originally submitted for vote at IBM's annual meeting. Why Heritage withdrew its anti-DEI proposal is unknown. Earlier today, shareholders at American Express voted to reject an anti-DEI proposal.

Today is National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day! 🐾 Whether it’s a dog, a cat, a bird, a bunny, if you can adopt, I promise it’ll be one of the most beautiful things you’ve ever done. In honor of shelter pet adoptions, here’s Lucky on his very first day with us after he came to his furever home.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

A must-read, and worth buying at your local independent bookstore

Torturing people in a foreign country doesn't make it better than using concentration camps in your own country... Art by @dennisgoris.bsky.social

Trump was asked yesterday about Putin increasing strikes on civilian targets after we cut off inteI: “He’s doing what anybody else would do. I think he’s hitting them harder than he’s been hitting them. And I think probably anybody in his position would be doing that right now.”

The nature of a cult is that it will turn you against your own family. Your loved ones will cheer as you are led off to the camps because hurting even you is what is necessary to bring on the glorious nation. apnews.com/article/trum...

The US Digital Service (USDS) - now the US DOGE Service - is being weaponized by the Trump administration to target career federal employees, dismantle safeguards, and enable corruption. 👀 Read more on our site. 🔗 wethebuilders.org #DefendDemocracy #SaveOurServices #AltUSDS #fedworkers

Elon Musk: *Throws a Nazi salute, twice* Elon Musk: Says Germans should stop feeling guilty about the Holocaust Elon Musk: Boosts Holocaust deniers, retweets antisemitic conspiracy theories People on the Internet: HE POSTED 14 FLAGS, IT'S A SECRET MESSAGE, HE'S A NAZI Yeah, guys. It's not a secret

Attributed to Napoleon, who ended democracy in French, this quote was also used by Anders Breivik, the far-right anti-immigrant terrorist who murdered 77 people

The 14 flags at 1:14 might be a coincidence, and it might not be. Utterly terrifying if it’s not.

14 flags again today. Nazi shit.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

No need to celebrate presidents day . We do not have one . We have a dicktator

Saw a toronto sports media guy scolding hockey fans for booing the American national anthem and I would like to extend my boos to that person specifically

This is fascism.

“We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.” -FDR, 1941
