Every American needs to watch this:
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeareβs Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

These are government employees. So our tax dollars are funding ICE to flash white supremacist cards at vulnerable POC as an intimidation tactic. Who is giving this direction?
Thereβs something deeply sinister happening in this country right now, and I donβt think we can take three more years.
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.
Hell, yeah.
βIβve got white skin, so Iβm using my privilege to speak for my friends and neighbors. Weβre telling them to stay home and stay safe, and weβre coming out and fighting for them.β

Tonight I watched Prime Minister Mark Carney take the actual Heated Rivalry Canada fleece from Hudson Williams, slip it on and say: βThis is true soft power.β
Here's the thing, Greg β free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.
If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.
Holy shit.
Noem:
"An individual approached US border patrol officers... The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently."
Video footage from multiple angles proves that this is outright bullshit.
Alex Pretti did not approach ICE officers nor did he react violently.
I cannot imagine the devastation this family is experiencing today. This statement is powerful and must be read.
The guy that runs the Reddit where people post about patting their cat on the butt like bongos has put his foot down
There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.
Four-time Grammy Award nominee Jesse Welles performs his song "Join Ice."
Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.
Tens of thousands of demonstrators filling the streets with signs and banners
Demonstrators as far as the eye can see. Current status of the march in Downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota for Ice Out of Minnesota. They are turning onto 3rd Street from 5th Avenue.
They are never, ever going to win in Minnesota.
I spent the morning at the San Antonio immigration court. Itβs out of control.
Crawling with ICE - arresting legal immigrants showing up for court appearances.
I asked one officer who they are prioritizing. His answer: everyone.
I need to share with you what I saw.
This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.
THE WOMAN WHO WAS DRAGGED OUT OF HER CAR AND ARRESTED BY ICE SPEAKS OUTβ¦
Weβve all seen the videos, but it matters to hear Aliya Rahman say it herself.
π She says her treatment in custody was dehumanizing, and that officers completely failed to take her disability seriously.
"We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition," Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned at Davos, criticizing Trump's tariff agenda and insisting Canada "stands firmly" with Greenland and Denmark as Trump moves to take control of Greenland.
Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "
Thousands of Minnesotans gathered last night to honor Renee Nicole Good. We will never accept that a single federal agent can be judge, jury, and executioner in our streets. ICE needs to get out of Minneapolis.
Frey: So, they are already trying to spin this as an action of self-defense. Having seen the video of myself, I want to tell everybody directly: That is bullshit.
Mayor Jacob Frey: βTo ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis.β
My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as βthe adult position,β akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Letβs be very clear β war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.
finally, we're living through precedented times
