How the Media Fails With Trump. Over and Over. (And Over.) Plus: The people of Minneapolis are amazing.

"They cannot believe what is happening around them and so, whenever something that feels normal, safe, or sane comes out of Trump’s mouth, they treat it as if that’s the real policy while everything else was just noise."

Four-time Grammy Award nominee Jesse Welles performs his song "Join Ice."

Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.

KNOXVILLE: ICE ran into a teen’s car as they went to arrest someone, then accused him of obstructing… and being Antifa.

A judge is not buying it.

There’s only one way to leave an abusive relationship: utterly and finally.

That doesn’t make it easy—on the contrary, it’s among the hardest things anyone can ever do.

It’s just as hard for a nation or group of nations.

It’s time for Europe to abandon America. Cut us off until we save ourselves.

FBI supervisory agent Tracee Mergen in Minneapolis resigned after FBI leadership in DC pressured her to discontinue an investigation into ICE agent Jonathan Ross, who shot & killed Renee Good.

Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27.5M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469.

Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by.

It's past time Walmart paid them a living wage.

“Everybody Showed Up”: Stunning Crowds at Minnesota Day of Strike and Shutdown Against ICE Extreme cold didn't stop the shutdown on Friday as some 100 faith leaders were arrested, residents stayed home from work, and an estimated 50,000 or more marched through downtown Minneapolis.

I'm not one for false optimism. But what I witnessed today in Minneapolis was tremendous, both in scale and exuberance. It was a stunning answer to the federal assault on Minnesota, a show of solidarity that gives us something to hold on to during times that are unforgiving.

Ro Khanna: “J.D. Vance just doesn't know the law. There's never been absolute immunity for ICE officers — they can be prosecuted, they usually are prosecuted criminally for violations. There is qualified immunity, means if they don't clearly violate civil rights statutes, they can't face civil suit”

Where is our national press? The government has been shooting at and harassing clergy for months. This used to be a red line. The reality is their red line moved, not yours. They’re cowards.

The FBI agent who initially began working with the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to investigate the fatal ICE shooting of Renee Good has resigned. Soon after the agent opened the civil rights investigation, she was ordered to reclassify it as a probe into an assault on the officer.

Rep. @aoc.bsky.social : “ICE is attacking 🇺🇸 citizens, kidnapping 5-year-olds and using them as bait to open doors, and violating constitutional rights by busting into their doors… They deserve to be defunded."
