This is the type of letter you write and make public when you’ve discovered that the CIA is up to no good and can’t be trusted—and you have no confidence the people in charge care.

They sent him to die at fourteen. I’m restoring his truth to light.

They buried the crime and hoped we’d forget.

STINNEY isn’t a tale — it’s a warning.
Read it before time repeats. Share it before truth fades.

Know his name. Remember what they tried to erase: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Biochemist/molecular biologist Joan Steitz was born #OTD in 1941.

She (& team) figured out how our cells read/use genetic instructions to make proteins. A key person who helped crack the code on RNA—the molecule that acts like a messenger between DNA & and the proteins our bodies need. #WomenInSTEM

“One day w/ a million people in the streets, that's a holiday, that's not a campaign. What you need is to have people in the streets every weekend for months on end. Despite rain, despite snow. That's how they showed their resolve to stand against the government.”

Someone should subpoena Stephen Miller — he left receipts behind

If you wonder why Stephen Miller is orchestrating ICE hate into the streets of the US, emails that show who he really is may have been forgotten but here they are, sitting in plain sight

Neo-nazism and White Nationalism support feature strongly

Ellison: "The Bondi letter reveals what this is all about. This is not about fraud and it's not even about immigration, and it's certainly not about law enforcement. It's about handing over documents of the state of Minnesota, private information, including voting information, to the federal govt."

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

Apropos of nothing in particular, it feels like a good time to remind Minneapolis residents that if there are areas in your area where reckless driving is a concern, you can apply for safety improvements through the city's Neighborhood Traffic Calming program: www.minneapolismn.gov/getting-arou...

You can request that we add traffic calming measures to your street.

TODAY IN MINNESOTA: Hundreds of thousands marched through Minneapolis in -10°F, shutting down the city to demand ICE the fuck out of the Twin Cities. People risked frostbite just to make their point. The entire country should be ashamed if they don’t follow.
