Billie Eilish: "No one is illegal on stolen land"
ProPublica has identified the two federal agents who murdered Alex Pretti as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa (43) & Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez (35).
Reminder that all skin folk aint kin folk & that the statute of limitations for murder is NEVER. Justice Will Be Served.
Apparently Latino agents murdered Alex Pretti. Itβs not a shock. Many Latinos support Trump and MAGA (I say this as a Vietnamese American whose community has many such supporters).
Kudos to Mayor Mamdani.
This is what economic justice looks like.
And it's a reminder of how we can fight corporate greed at the state and local level. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/01/mamdani-ice-delivery-workers-settlement-backpay-uber-gig-workers-million/
"Four hours after his arrest, he was taken to a hospital emergency room in Edina with swelling and bruising around his right eye and bleeding. A CT scan revealed at least eight skull fractures and life-threatening hemorrhages in at least five areas of his brain..."

Wow, wtf is wrong with these thugs?!
Trump promised families lower costs on day one β and then pursued policies that drove prices up instead.
@banking.senate.gov just released a new report detailing how the President's policies are making YOU pay hundreds of dollars more for basics like electricity and groceries.
It should not take a court order to get a toddler out of a prison.
Dreading doing your taxes? Billionaires arenβt.
While Trump does nothing to lower the cost of living for you, he's making it even easier for billionaires to get away with cheating on their taxes.
The US is forcing an energy crisis in Cuba.
This will inflict massive harm on the almost 10 million Cubans who inhabit the island.
This is genocidal.
In-progress portrait of Hind Rajab. It feels right to caress gold into her eyes and hair, to highlight the preciousness of who she was, so much more than the senseless violence that broadcast her to the attention of the wider world. #hindrajab
I love all these Vietnamese slogans
Press freedom groups decry arrest of former CNN anchor as lawyer pledges to fight charges 'vigorously'.
βDoesnβt have the namesβ???!!! Who do you think youβre fooling?
Journalism is not a crime.
The Justice Department should investigate the federal agents who killed US citizens in broad daylight, not arrest reporters like Don Lemon. He should be released.
It's a spine-chilling assault on press freedom and threatens the public's right to know.
Today, people across the entire country will withhold their labor, withhold their dollars, and take to the streets to protest Trumpβs ICE thugs terrorizing Minneapolis.
Solidarity with everyone participating.
Let this be one of many actions we take to fight back against this regime.

Some major public institutions in Canada, including a pension management firm and a leading hospital, are advising staff against traveling to the US.
Old mobile phones and keyboards. Overlaid text reads: FT Exclusive: EU issues US-bound staff with burner phones to avoid espionage
Breaking news: The European Commission is issuing burner phones and basic laptops to some US-bound staff to avoid the risk of espionage β a measure traditionally reserved for trips to China www.ft.com/content/20d0...
"Some legal organizations and activist groups are warning international students not to travel to their home countries during spring break next week, worried they may not be allowed back into the U.S"
We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.
11,000 people showed up.
Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.
This suffering is unacceptable. I will not comply with anything Trump asks for.
All of the Republicans who for years railed about "unelected bureaucrats" destroying the government are awfully quiet as an unelected bureaucrat destroys the government.
