I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.
You could be next.
Trump on the Renee Good murder: Asked if he believed deadly force was necessary in this case, Trump said: “It was highly disrespectful of law enforcement. The woman and her friend were highly disrespectful of law enforcement.”
But pardoning all the people who assaulted the capital police is ok?
It’s been 5 years since over 140 Capitol police were violently assaulted by Trump’s mob.
Republicans dismissed it as political discourse.
The assailants were all pardoned by Trump. Many of them went on to commit more crimes.
It will remain one of the most shameful days in American history.
You can listen live to the hearing held only by Democrats to commemorate the 5th anniversary of January 6th. It speaks volumes about the state of our democracy that no Republican Members of Congress are participating here, in what should be a bipartisan event.

Good morning.
You are waking up to the irony of a convicted felon president, who spent years avoiding his own criminal trials, capturing the president of a sovereign nation and holding him captive for criminal trials.
I have an idea, why don't these states follow the lead of the scumbag chump administration and send them reports with everything redacted? Why can't the states redact confidential voter information just like the Epstein Files????

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.
Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.
1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.
2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.
3. Russia pays everyone for everything.
4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.
Thanks for your attention to this matter.
Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.
The one on the left is a distinguished, war hero, Senator, and an astronaut.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.
Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.
Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.
Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.
Happy Halloween!
The scariest room in the Capitol is the House Chamber .… where hundreds of Republicans disappeared 6 weeks ago… and haven't been seen since. Spooky stuff! 👻
Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 79th day out of the last 91.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Trump NEVER ADMITS Culpability! He will NEVER even as the jail cell door clangs in his ears!
Sen. Lankford on Paul Ingrassia’s nomination to office of special counsel: “For every federal employee that is of Indian descent and they have a workplace discrimination claim, they've got to go to that office. And he's literally said, ‘You can never trust an Indian’”

Impeach Mike Johnson, SOTH, for not reopening the House. He is stopping one of the three branches of our government from functioning. It seems to me to be impeachable. Do you?
Erez Reuveni spent 15 years as an immigration lawyer for the DOJ.
The Trump administration fired him when he refused to defend their lies about Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

“Epstein also showed me photographs of Trump around Epstein’s pool with young women. I remember three specifically: two topless young women on Trump’s lap, and a third where Trump had a stain on his pants while four or five girls laughed and pointed...”
