LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell will not arrest ICE agents for wearing a mask , because it’s a misdemeanor and runs the risk of a confrontation. He’s happy to arrest people for failure to disperse. A misdemeanor and a guarantee of confrontation. @mayor.lacity.gov @lapdhq.

Exactly right.

Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.

Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.

Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.

Every possible angle.
They are wounded and flailing. Press the advantage.

idk maybe “defund the police” wasn’t a crazy left wing overreaction but instead a very rational response to unaccountable and unending violence. then elites moved on and pretending normal status quo was ok

Today is, among other things, a reminder that you don't get a general strike by posting that we should have a general strike.

You get a general strike—on the rare occasions you do—by the long slow slog of building organizing power with those around you in response to local conditions.

Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could?
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul

Keep politics simple, on point grounded in humanity and a clear moral compass.

This is the way.
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

ICYMI: This week I rode along with a Unitarian Universalist minister as she patrolled the same neighborhood where Renee Good was killed, looking for ICE.

“We’re gonna keep taking care of people who are impacted,” she told me. “We’re gonna keep getting braver.” religionnews.com/2026/01/14/i...
In the neighborhood where Renee Good was killed, a pastor keeps patrolling for ICE
MINNEAPOLIS (RNS) — ‘There’s no option for me,’ said the Rev. Ashley Horan during a neighborhood patrol. ‘It is my responsibility to care for my neighbors in this way.’

"We have found this man (Paul) to be a dangerous nuisance, and an agitator stirring up insurrection..." (Acts 24:5)

Here is your regular reminder that being branded as an "agitator" by the forces of Empire is one of the oldest traditions in Christianity.

Act accordingly.

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.

I see the consultants are throwing in their $0.02. “Abolish ICE is bad messaging.”

Shut the fuck up. You fuckos don’t get to speak after you told Walz to stop calling republicans weird. Abolish ICE is succinct, easy to understand, and is gaining mainstream support. Would I prefer Abolish DHS? Sure.

i don't really give a shit if consultants think being anti-ICE is "good messaging" or whatever when people are actively being shot, beat, gassed and jailed.

things off the top of my head that i can think of that conservatives have called tyranny

- health care subsidies
- seeing pronouns in an email
- being suspended from a social media platform
- pride month
- baking a cake for a same sex wedding
- legal rulings against donald trump
- EV benchmarks
Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

A gentle reminder in your grief that Renee Good was out there to protect her Black and brown neighbors from ethnic cleansing. That is still the mission.

The focus should remain on slowing down the ethnic cleansing campaign and on protecting Black and brown families and communities from destruction.
