Multiple U.S. citizens have been arrested during ICE operations.

The forcefulness, lack of communication, and unlawful practices displayed by federal agents will not be tolerated in Minnesota.

I've been going through our Cancel Me Daddy interview with Brad Lander from this summer and pulling out interesting bits.

Here he explains that the fight in the Dem party is not between Progressives and Moderates but Fighters and Folders.

I went inside the Burlington ICE facility to demand answers. No medical staff. No transparency. No accountability. ICE is operating in the shadows but I will continue to shine a light on their inhuman practices and working to protect our immigrant neighbors.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social my ways of resisting: becoming a card carrying member of my town’s Dem committee, going to protests and standouts, calling my electeds, and crocheting a protest blanket! The first two picks are the latest that I am stitching into the full blanket now🤗

So good.
AP on Trump now, and Biden in June 2022.

For Trump, declining to 36 percent approval is “good news.”

For Biden, holding steady at 41% is “a source of concern.”

In my newspaper column, I wrote about the crazy late-night screed from Donald Trump. @pbump.com said it needs to be read out loud to understand just how bonkers it is. So we had an AI voice read it. And now think what you'd do if your grandpa did this.

The subsequent threats of violence against these legislators have been unacceptable and must be denounced — not normalized.

Our neighbors in Indiana have stood up to Trump's threats and political pressure, instead choosing to do what's right for their constituents and our democracy.

Illinois will remain vigilant against his map rigging — our efforts to respond and stop his campaign are being heard.

Here's what happened on the Senate floor today: Republicans voted to kill our bill to save the ACA tax credits—this was our last chance.

Then they held a sham vote on a GOP bill that does NOTHING to lower health care premiums.

Make sure everyone knows it.

NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.

The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.

Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

This is probably the clearest indication yet that the administration understands what they’re doing in the Caribbean is illegal.

They’re now threatening the ICC with sanctions if they investigate Trump and his team.
