I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

the problem with an untrained secret police squad that shoots people in their cars isn’t that they’re untrained

36 people have died at ICE's hands in the past year
may of these deaths did not happen on camera, but it does not make them any less horrifying and unacceptable
this is a list of their names, where they lived before being abducted, and a link to crowdfunding if i can find it

I know it’s tempting to believe but just because the rise in the popularity of unapologetic openly fascist ideology & the rise in the popularity of pickle ball have suspiciously coincided, the two things are probably only loosely related at best

the only thing that keeps me sane is the idea that my entire life is just a save state on a 17-year-old's galactic computer, and now he's just mashing the buttons because he's bored. any other explanation falls apart.

Incarceration is deadly.
People incarcerated on a single day in 2008 had a 39% higher risk of death compared to similar people who were not incarcerated:

![A Bluesky user based in Venezuela posted 'I live near a military air base and five earth-shaking explosions were just heart.'
User @thenordic.bsky.social (a random asshole) replied 'was it too hard for you to to [sic] add a link?' along with a link to an AP piece. Quick, don't look, what do you think the odds are that this user responded gracefully to being told that OP was on the ground and reporting firsthand?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ycbmujtxprrwbkiw3x5qsyz4/bafkreieh2ddespqvcqdhpfy4g2higsw4lfiguzpaxs3rdessztcokmww6i@jpeg)

Anyway I wonder just how MUCH CBS News loves America, is it this much [spreading hands to indicate pile of dead Palestinian children] or THIS much [spreading arms really alarmingly widely to the point of losing my balance to encompass quite amazingly large pile of dead Palestinian children]

Social media isn't a great place for nuance or context, but despite that I want to take a moment today to talk about some of the things that made the MetroCard special in its day.
