Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

The answer to β€œbut they could change their mind” is to make it so easy and simple to change their minds!

(Of course the bigots aren’t actually trying to protect anybody, they are simply trying to exert their control over others. But I digress.)

I wish people could see past their bigotry enough to see that the possibility of detransitioning is such a strong vote in *favor* of supporting social transition (and puberty blockers). People try on new identities all throughout growing up, and many don’t stick.

In St. Paul, Minnesota, Hennepin County deputies brutally assaulted peaceful anti-ICE protesters.

The most charitable interpretation of Platner still leaves us with someone plainly unfit for any elected office, much less the Senate. I don't think it's hyperbolic to say there are risks in putting into high office a person who keeps saying "whoops, another neo-Nazi association, I'm such a dummy."

We are heartbroken to wake up to news of American and Israeli military strikes in Iran.
These unjustifiable attacks are a dangerous escalation in Trump's scorched-earth
Middle East policy. President Trump values the wants of Netanyahu over the will of the American People. Furthered by the Trump Administration's repeated circumvention of Congressional approval to do so.

Hasty, reckless bombing leveled an elementary school in Iran. Local sources are already reporting dozens of civilian deaths.
As Jewish people and Americans, our voice needs to be loud, clear, and united against this heinous action carried out in our name.

This violence is unconscionable and illegal.
Immediate action must be taken by both the
US and Israeli governments to de-escalate tensions created by Trump and Netanyahu.
We urge Congress to bring Articles of Impeachment against President Trump. If not now, when?

I am publishing a statement here on this morning’s strikes of Iran carried out by the US and Israel.

As a Jewish DFLer it is imperative that we speak out. Additionally, I invite all support from the entire DFL community. Please sign on here to support this statement: forms.gle/8W5jfdMZuFjG...

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city β€” you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders.Β You will be safe here.

I know this feels pointless but everyone has to call their congressional reps and say they oppose war with Iran and they oppose Trump illegally starting one without congressional approval β€” both

5 Calls can help you make the call:

One of the kind of fucked up parts of the ICE occupation here is that a lot of folks want to believe it’s over, and the media seems to tell us it’s over, but folks on the ground are still seeing tons of activity and vulnerable people are still (rightfully) terrified to go outside. We can’t stop yet.

23.02.2026 20:11 πŸ‘ 3244 πŸ” 1056 πŸ’¬ 8 πŸ“Œ 33

I’ve lost count of how many US citizens ICE has shot.

And the media still acts like it’s only two.

When I say our leaders aren’t helping us, this is what I mean. ICE is showing no signs of leaving but our senator, who is currently running for governor, doesn’t even know that. And she’s doing the administrationβ€˜s work for them.

Letting Republicans off the hook without legal consequences for their crimes isn’t β€œbringing people together,” it’s encouraging them to keep committing crimes. After January 6th, there should be no more confusion about this.

It’s going to sweep across the country and kill and maim kids bc Trump put a lunatic grifter in charge of the nation’s public health system

And not just in regard to things, but people.

It's important to keep caring. It's important to keep caring about how people work (not just labor), and how we're built (cognitively, emotionally).

There is a remarkable lack of care in this age; carelessness at scale. This will not hold. It can't.

There has been a real reluctance for people to say too much about ICE’s continued occupation in Minnesota because the headline was that ICE was leaving.

But ICE has consistently made statements themselves that they are only changing tacticsβ€”not withdrawing altogether.

Heat map using CDC data and PMC estimate of prevalence

Breaking: The CDC reports SARS-CoV-2 levels *quadrupled* in Minnesota in the past week.

Using harmonized wastewater estimates, we project 1 in 12 people in Minnesota are actively infectious. This is equivalent to a 59% chance of exposure in a room of 10 people....

Power concedes nothing without a fight. The news of the draw down this morning is a development that was won by the power of neighbors joining together to keep each other safe. We celebrate the wins.

Yet we know the threat is not over, and so our fight is not over.

This is why Minnesotans are begging folks outside the state to keep talking about us.

Please don’t let the world forget we are still in danger.

Check out my list on Amazon

Like Kendrick, political as hell precisely because it doesn't bother to acknowledge the haters. They're irrelevant, beneath attention. And nothing is more intolerable to fascists than the thought that their enemies are cool, enjoying themselves, and not thinking about them.

Imagine how different this game might be if the Patriots knew that they could try to intercept the ball. Definitely nobody tell them because it’s better this way.

I genuinely thought it was an anti-AI ad in the first moments. Or at least somehow riffing on how bad it is.
