Calling all friends who aren’t afraid to talk about abortion 👀 We’re building a network of people who are down to talk about abortion options with the people in their lives—friends, family, coworkers, whoever, because you never know who may need to access care. Interested? → heyjane.me/ambassador

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

ICE observers in the Twin Cities are in need of dash cams to prevent further intimidation and frivolous claims. Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/... If you've been looking for a way to help, we'd sure appreciate it!

ICE just murdered a woman here in Minneapolis. A legal observer. Shot her multiple times while she drove away as ordered. She was a US citizen. Absolute, unequivocal, cold-blooded murder by Trump’s gestapo. Abolish ICE, jail for everyone in charge. This is the lowest bar we accept now.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation. Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Sign to support this principled action that got a Union bus driver in LA fired. You don't have to live in LA!

Guys, I have a special & unusual request today. My cousin Sean is a union bus driver here in Los Angeles who was just FIRED in retaliation for saying he would not let masked ICE agents onto his bus to abduct riders. The fight is on to get his job back, you can help: actionnetwork.org/letters/send...

Over 1100 Israeli academics urge the heads of Israeli universities and colleges to "mobilize the full weight of Israeli academia to stop the Israeli war in #Gaza", acknowledging "a horrifying litany of war crimes and even crimes against humanity, all of our own doing."

We can talk about who should be the next mayor of New York City just as soon as we make sure that there is not one living resident of NYC who has not heard the sentence "DON'T RANK CUOMO."

It's nice to see elected representatives visiting their constituents who have been detained by ICE but may I respectfully suggest university presidents consider doing the same

Think of this like making calls to congressional offices. Lots of individuals writing to lots of university presidents on this *one issue* -- due process -- should be something that people of all stripes can get behind.

Elizabeth N. Saunders@profsaunders.bsky.social

To put this in actionable terms: everyone with a connection to any college or university (alum, parent, student, faculty, works there) should send a letter to their president's office urging them to issue a statement calling for due process for student detentions. Do it now! #DueProcessForAll

Good morning. Monday morning. In a rank choice voting system you need to rank five good apples for mayor in addition to NOT ranking Cuomo and NOT ranking Adams. Please help spread the word! Share share share!!!! Copy and redo in your own words if you prefer!

I joined @jaketapper for a full interview on why disgraced Andrew Cuomo cannot be mayor. 1/3 talks about his pervasive abuse of power and how his supporters are about that same abuse of power:

Columbia grad student with a green card and a pregnant US citizen wife, abducted by ICE because of his political organizing, and now his lawyers can't find him. Hey, @schumer.senate.gov. This is your constituent. Bring him back home.

Prem Thakker ツ@premthakker.bsky.social

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is. They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there. They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

I received an excellent education at Columbia and I would strongly advise any parent against sending their child there now.
