People call Minnesotans rioters, but not a single building has burned. The only smoke has been from chemical weapons deployed by ICE in our neighborhoods. Only ICE has fired their guns.
We are fighting armed occupation with whistles, cameras, and community.
And we are winning.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

This day calls on us to do more than reflect; it calls on us to act — to confront antisemitism wherever it exists and to reject all forms of hatred and dehumanization. May the memories of all those lost be a blessing — one that guides us as we build a world where every life is sacred.

Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the six million Jewish lives — and the millions of others — senselessly murdered by the Nazi regime. We remember not only the unimaginable loss, but the warning history leaves us.

The MAGA regime also really obviously doesn't know what to do with the fact that each time ICE murders somebody, the people they're trying to scare merely get more angry and more motivated to fight back.

This is amazing for several reasons, including the fact he genuinely thinks everything about NYC snow removal is fascinating and wants you to understand why it's fascinating too, to positioning the obligation to shovel your sidewalks as part of the collective work.
One of the hardest things to do is bring campaign-level communications to the work of governance, and snowstorms are notoriously one of the biggest litmus tests that less-engaged voters use to judge mayoral administrations. This is an excellent way to communicate.

Our government killed a man yesterday. And instead of demanding & opening an investigation into the killing, our government IMMEDIATELY labeled the man a “domestic terrorist.” Immediately.
That’s what fascist regimes do. It should send a chill down the spine of every American.

I never get tired of photos of New York in the Great Blizzard of 1947—26 inches in Central Park, making today's storm look like a picnic. This is a lone pedestrian making their way through a peaceful Times Square, showing the Pepsico sign and a marquee for "The Voice of the Turtle" at left.
