Amazing: DHS's internal communications with Republicans described the victim of ICE's latest murder in Minneapolis as an "illegal alien." They apparently wanted this to be true so badly that they just stated it as fact.

Crowd is massive, now overflowing Congress Plaza and taking up a block-long stretch of Michigan Avenue.

Reminder: this event was only announced yesterday.

If someone didn't appreciate this was fascism and/or authoritarianism and now they do, don't mock them just welcome them. This is basic coalition building behavior since you are never going to get everyone to think just like you do or on your timeline.

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.

As we prepare for winter weather, remember to be #WinterSaltSmart

While salt helps get rid of ice, too much can be harmful to our drinking water, aquatic life, trees, vegetation, vehicles, pipes and infrastructure.

It can also harm our pets. Don’t over do it.

A magistrate judge found no probable cause to support arrest warrants for 5 people involved in the St. Paul church protest.

DOJ appealed to the 8th Cir.

That appeal led to this remarkable letter from the Chief Judge of the Minnesota district court…

The TACO cycle:

Markets want to price in TACO. But TACO only works if Trump sees stocks tank.

So we get a loop: Trump does things → nothing happens (markets already priced in TACO) → that emboldens him to do more → until markets start to think he might not TACO → stocks fall → TACO is restored.

Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin.

This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.

This is maybe the craziest thing yet. The 25th amendment isn't even an option because the senate confirmed a bunch of moron toadies who have no interest in the country or constitution.
Not the sort of letter committed to paper by a well man. "Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace"

People, we need you in the streets today. Really, we do. We need to show them we won’t accept a regime that kills its own citizens. They do not have the consent of the governed.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

Unilateral presidential changes to state funding are the very definition of taxation without representation. Congress's funding decisions have been annulled. It's like a retributive line item veto. Can't possibly be ok.

The reason Miller is saying Denmark has no claim to greenland is so they can pretend it's free land and can just take it and declare it taken, even without congress. This isn't an administration troll.
