I will never forget this woman, nor the faux Col. Sanders and his oil sign
How’d that work out for him. Lol

Evelyn Normielib (D-MN) has arrived at the scene of the ICE shooting in northern Minneapolis
Early this week I apologized in a chat as the only Minnesotan for spamming (ha ha, reference) with our latest news seemingly every 45 minutes, and it was deeply validating to be told straight up "No, please keep us updated. We know the news isn't telling the full story. We need to know the truth."
We cannot be more clear. Leave us the fuck alone.
Thousands protest in Minneapolis after 37-year old Renee Good was killed by an ICE agent earlier in the day. Many holding up screen captured images from the viral video that showed the federal agent who shot and killed Good.
RIP Claudia Cardinale. Much like Robert Redford, she was a rare case of a beautiful performer with a filmography full of bangers who did NOT become right-wing later in life. Here she is punching fascist Brigitte Bardot in the face in Les Pétroleuses (1971).
I’m out here in downtown Los Angeles for the 24-community stoppage events—currently following a blocks-long car caravan that started its journey out in MacArthur Park and is headed into downtown. As usual, it’s a party
If this is how the IDF treats American citizens traveling with media attention, it brings even more credibility to the reports of their abuses of Palestinian civilians. I stand in solidarity w/ my brother Chris, the civilians in Gaza and all working towards peace and dignity for all. End this horror

This is police and ICE brutality and we cannot sit back and just let it happen.
Not in Los Angeles.
It's official: the ballots have been counted and we have officially been recognized as the Washington Post Tech Guild by the NLRB! In a 171-38 BLOWOUT vote, we voiced loudly that our union is important to us. That's 81%!

Columbia University Acting President Claire Shipman welcomed to Columbia College's graduation ceremony with sustained jeers and boos.
Minutes later, students break out in loud chants of "Free Mahmoud":
The way we were treated at Delaney Hall is almost unbelievable. ICE shoved me, manhandled @repbonnie.bsky.social, and arrested Mayor Baraka.
They disrespected us and tried to stop us from conducting the oversight we’re elected to do. But we’ll never back down in our fight for what is right.
Mike Waltz has left the chat.
