⚡️ France replaces US as main intelligence provider to Kyiv, Macron says.
The change works to solve Kyiv's dependence on the U.S. for military intelligence, which has been wielded as leverage against Ukraine by the Trump admin on several occasions.

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.

LA COUNTY TO ICE: NOT HERE 📢
The county Board of Supervisors unanimously told their lawyers to draft an ordinance creating ICE-free zones.
Translation: Bars ICE from using county-owned property as staging areas, holding spaces, or processing sites.

Jacob Frey told ICE agents to get the fuck out of Minneapolis, a hugely popular viral moment, and the media has been browbeating him over it ever since. Trump flipped a guy off and told him fuck you and it’s barely acknowledged.
