I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Please contact the Nobel Prize committee and demand they rescind the Prize awarded to Machado. Giving her prize to Trump only empowers his crimes, violence, murders, brutality, and attacks on American citizens and immigrants alike. Contact info here:

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

Reality keeps ruining the script…

TRUMP: A professional agitator ran over an ICE agent who barely survived.

THE ICE AGENT: not only looks uninjured physically, he seems mentally fine, not shaken up, unbothered, walking away from the scene.

MTV is officially ending all of its music channels.

In honor of that, what's your favorite music video?

Although this isn't my favorite I think it's appropriate since it's the very first video that MTV aired.

This is ethnic cleansing.
Working with violent illegal settlers, Israel’s military is ramping up its brutal attacks on Palestinians in order to force them into homelessness so it can steal their land.

This is ethnic cleansing.

All of the money that changed hands in the Teapot Dome scandal totaled less than $10 million after adjusting for inflation, and it was considered so corrupt we still teach it in high school government classes a century later.
Corruption so pungent, it wafts right off the page:

Lobbyists who do pardon deals “say their going rate is $1 million. Pardon-seekers have offered some lobbyists close to the president success fees of as much as $6 million if they can close the deal.”
