Kohen Wiley, a 1-year-old child, is dead after a Mississippi police officer shot into a car and killed him. Family members say his mother was holding him in the passenger seat. The officers were responding to a shoplifting call over a box of diapers at the Senatobia Walmart.

i wanna print this anthony edwards quote out and put it in the face of everyone in the nba community who says the regular season doesn't matter

Ryan Eichten@reichten.bsky.social

Anthony Edwards reflecting back on the season: "You're supposed to build championship habits or playoff habits during the regular season." When asked if the Wolves did that: "No, we didn't build the habits during the regular season."

I think it’s just about time to separate Finch and his emotional support player, Julius Randle.

Chris Finch on Julius Randle's defense "No, I don't think there's a ton of breakdowns around Julius's defense right now. I think it's a combination of a lot of different things."

Awful. A teenager, dead by suicide in an ICE detention center. There is now a crisis of suicide inside the detention system; I have never seen anything like it. Suicide has happened before, but they were very rare. This is the third or fourth this year.

Austin Kocher, PhD@austinkocher.com

Royer Perez-Jimenez was 19 years old. He died by suicide at 3am on March 16 at Glades County Detention Center in Florida. He is the 2nd person to die in ICE custody this week, the 13th this year, and the 42nd under Trump. 🧵

White House: the witness’s allegations are “completely baseless” and “backed by zero credible evidence.” Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

I think about what Rapinoe would say in this situation and it sure as shit wouldn’t be “they were in a tough situation.” A tough situation would be a SURPRISING comment from a powerful/influential person. Not misogyny from a known woman-hating rapist & sexual abuser. They know & endorse him.

Today we are launching a new intitative of Stand With Minnesota—KeepMNHoused.com, a rent-relief campaign backed with a $1.5 matching fund from the Wilson Foundation. Thousands of MN families are at risk of eviction because of the ICE occupation’s lasting impacts. We can keep them housed.

The more we learn about the attack on Marimar Martinez, the worse it gets: Greg Bovino actually THANKED the agent who shot a U.S. citizen five times. This agency is rotten from top to bottom and should absolutely be held accountable.

Oh look! That thing that every Minnesotan said was bullshit turned out to be bullshit. ICE just keeps on lying

If in Norway the princess no longer has the support to be Queen, and if in the UK King Charles is now calling for a criminal investigation into his own brother, then surely in the United States of America, Howard Lutnick must resign!

To reject the US as a fundamentally American country with a deep shared history and commonality with the rest of the Americas, including that Spanish has long been our de facto national second language, is on a deep level anti-American. It's hating actual American culture and history and tradition.

Didn't want to forget about the departure of Conley amid all the hubbub. Will have a somewhat maudlin paean/eulogy for his influential Wolves tenure up sometime today.

Three rules in FBI firearm training: 1. Always point your weapon downrange 2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot 3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

It’s pretty fucking wild that the DOJ is releasing files that include accusations that the President of the United States raped underage girls, to distract from the fact that the DOJ is covering up murders of US citizens by their own government.

this is actually a very accurate report on what we're doing, except for the outside assistance and "lethal harassment" part. it's a massive, decentralized network. ICE cars enter the neighborhood, instantly pick up several tails, are logged, and are escorted out. it's hopeless. you should leave.

The images are sickening. MUCH worse than Renee Good 5-6 agents surrounded the man-forcing him to the ground and beating him. He was severely outnumbered and being subdued. They shot him anyway The federal government is executing people on the streets DISBAND ICE IMPEACH AND REMOVE TRUMP NOW

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

There is video circulating on social media of a group of ICE agents beating a man near 26th and Nicollet in south Minneapolis, then one of the ICE agents shoots the man while he's on the ground numerous times. A witness can be heard yelling that the victim is dead.

They always lie about being rammed with a vehicle. They’re the ones that ram vehicles, and even brake check cars to cause crashes that will justify use of force.

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

SEEING IS BELIEVING DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite. 📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported. DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.
