Defiant beauty of jingle dress dance in Minneapolis. Indigenous resistance also at forefront vs ICE in Portland, OR since last summer (& all the way back to Portland 2018 Occupy Ice.) @cozca.bsky.social & other Indigenous defenders have been arrested by Feds for dancing/ceremonies at Portland ICE.
NEW: Native dancers held a jingle dress healing ceremony at the memorials of Alex Pretti and Renee Good in Minneapolis — prayer, culture, and solidarity. This is a movement! Share so everyone is aware!

I realise I've said for a while that eating the rich could lead to prion diseases, I must caution everyone that the risk is greatly increased by the rich already having eaten people.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

My personal government data was stolen by DOGE. Where is my $10 billion?
STEPHANOPOULOS: How do you respond to people who say it's a conflict of interest for the president to be seeking funds from those who he's administering?
BLANCHE: We're looking at how to handle that. He's not wrong that what happened there was horrible, the fact his tax returns were leaked.

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face.
If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

For those asking why I am asking about ICE funding NOW, the government runs out of money this month and Congress has yet to pass the Homeland Security bill. ICE won’t be abolished, but Democrats can hold up the bill

A neighbor was taken to a care facility, and her little tortoiseshell kitty was left behind. I can't take her in but I've been feeding her and giving her water every day. No one in the neighbor's family can take her in. Is there anyone in the Inland Empire area that could foster or adopt her?

Still so excited for everyone who showed up to this yesterday! It was stunning to see a sea of creatives overwhelm that tiny hearing. We had an overflow room of artists and the line for 30 second public commentary literally had to be cut off!
