This is what ICE descending on Minneapolis looks like Photos show the terror and resistance taking over Minnesota's largest city.

Inside the terror and resistance taking over Minnesota’s largest city.

All US disease prevention services are on the chopping block, from vaccines to cancer screening.

One reason for this is that prevention takes years to show the totality of the results.

Ending it will also take years to show the totality of the results, long after The Regime is gone.

He was caring for his 5-year-old son with brain cancer. Then he was detained by ICE. A court has temporarily blocked Johny Merida Aguilar's deportation to Bolivia.

Every day at noon, no matter how busy, Johny Merida Aguilar left his construction job and hurried to his 5-year-old son's school to feed him. His son has brain cancer and generally only accepts food from his father.

Merida Aguilar was arrested by ICE in September and faces deportation to Bolivia.

One day everyone will have always been against this. excellent book.

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand

You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen

*Everyone has stories like this*

They're not lonely enough

He is not hot at all.

Seems like every day there are more and more people looking at ICE and saying “I didn’t vote for this”.

You did. You voted for a man who handed out MASS DEPORTATION NOW signs to crowds at his rallies.

Did you think that mass deportation was going to be gentle and thoughtful and peaceful?

Unbelievable.

South Carolina measles outbreak grows by nearly 100, spreads to North Carolina and Ohio State health officials in South Carolina have confirmed 99 new cases of measles since Tuesday. The state health department says the post-holiday surge had been expected, given travel and family gather...

South Carolina has reported 99 new measles cases in the past 3 days.

Meanwhile RFK Jr. is “building a case” to argue that the U.S. shouldn’t lose its measles elimination status.

But we’ve lost it and hell of a lot more.

He only cares about optics.

Reality need not apply.

If Renee Good is a "a domestic terrorist" according to Kristi Noem it means the label is meaningless and will be used by the Trump Administration to murder anyone it wants.

From Venezuelan fishermen to anti Trump protestors in the No Kings Rally.

Eyes wide open, friends.

Morning.

RFK Jr. is dangerous no matter what.

If he believes his own lies that vaccines harm and kill children, but they’re still available in the U.S., he’s killing innocent people.

If he doesn’t really believe this and yet he continues to undermine vaccines, he’s also killing innocent people.

Almost 90% of Greenland’s population is Indigenous, in case you’re wondering why the rich white men in the gilded White House think they can just take their land.

"We have our own medics" says a member of the Gestapo as he refuses to let a doctor help the woman who was murdered by ICE today.

Where the fuck were the medics? Why the fuck are only ICE medics allowed to work on victims of Gestapic violence? Must they wear masks too?

WHAT THE FUCK

Trump shot and killed an American citizen in Minneapolis today. He gave the orders. His responsibility.

Fuck Bari Weiss, fuck bootlicking regime propaganda

The way I see it, we have a few options:

1. General strike

2. Mass protests in DC for as long as it takes

3. Wait for Republicans to protect the country and therefore lose the country

No one is coming to save us.

SARS-CoV-2 infection was also associated with premature birth.

You may be wondering about vaccination impact. Only 8% of women who were not infected had been vaccinated whereas just 2% of those who were infected had been vaccinated.

Babies whose mothers contracted SARS-CoV-2 during pregnancy were significantly more likely to have a neurodevelopmental disorder (16.3%) by age 3 than those who were not exposed (9.7%).

This finding is similar to results of several different types of maternal infections during pregnancy.
