Susan Collins voting to send billions more to ICE and praising Noem the morning after the paramilitary shattered glass across the body of a Maine infant -- and days after Noem used Orwellian lies to defend Alex Pretti's killing -- should be the top story at every Maine outlet tomorrow. #MEpolitics

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Many Germans continued to work, shop and try to go about their normal lives believing what the government told them refusing to believe their own eyes, to ignore what was happening to others since it didn't effect them.

it's on EVERYONE to speak up against hate, or you are complicit with it

This is the question history will ask us.
Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

A timelapse of the enormous anti-ICE, anti-Trump protest in Chicago yesterday (Sun Jan 25, 2026).

They’re trying to tell you it’s a Minneapolis story, that protests are small and confined.

They’re lying.

Today I am angry.

Kidnapping. Abductions. Using violence against the innocent. Destroying their property. Holding them against their will. Murder.

All crimes being committed by federal agents.

Masked government agents are conducting “show me your papers” stops, detaining 5-year-olds to use them as bait, and brutally murdering U.S. citizens.

Call it what it is — fascism.

History will not look fondly on politicians and so-called "leaders" of this country who stood by and enabled this.

ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.

We will not back down from ICE’s lawless attacks on our neighbors.

I’m in Lewiston today at a massive rally to fight for what we all know is right. ICE needs to be dismantled.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

This is such an important point. This family tried to follow the rules.

The distinction is going to get more important when they start mass deporting the people whose TPS status Trump revoked. They’ll call them “illegal” too, even though they were here legally until Trump yanked the rug.
People are missing a big thing about the saga of the detained 5-year-old. When Vance calls the father an "illegal alien" it seems to reflect a little-known Trump admin move that attempts to nullify asylum claims before they are even heard.

This policy is a horror:

AOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doors—they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.
