I’ve had to tell so many parents that their sons & daughters were dead, had been murdered. Their screams, their silences, their faces, their collapses, cling to me like cobwebs I can’t ever shake.
Our leaders, so callous with death as games or memes or brags, know nothing of grief, only of greed.
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social
You want the investor class to make its capital-gains omelette, you're going to need to break a few eggs here and there. By which we mean, serve up several thousand underaged girls to pedophiles and then have the good grace not to dwell on such things.
Hell is too good for this twisted woman.
Is there some sort of award for perfectly missing the point?
I'd watch a muppet show movie where the muppets infiltrate an academic conference.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.
Emory chemist Dennis Liotta - whose innovations have saved millions of lives - recently argued if the Trump administration changes publicly funded science research, "the cures and breakthroughs of tomorrow may never make it out of university labs."

Trump promised peace, but has delivered war. For months, the Trump administration has escalated conflict in Venezuela with unconstitutional and illegal strikes, and lied to the American people. Now, Trump has committed the United States to running another country for the foreseeable future while Americans foot the bill for regime change. Today, Trump finally said the quiet part out loud. The justification for this war isn’t about stemming the flow of drugs. This is about regime change. This is about enriching oil corporations and billionaires. Congress must immediately assert its constitutional authority over American military action—the same authority Trump’s own chief of staff said he needs. This is the worst kind of betrayal from Trump. He committed the United States to an uncertain role in South America with an indeterminate timeline. As Trump’s influence over the country and the world wanes, he is ready and willing to endanger Americans and abandon the Constitution as a last-ditch effort to hold on to power and relevancy.
My full statement on Trump’s unconstitutional military operations in Venezuela:
I'm so tired. This is not an evidence-based assertion.
As a public health practitioner, I highly recommend getting your flu shot and masking up when you can (especially if you don't feel well).
“Miss, do you agree with the sign?”
“Absolutely not. My great niece was 4 months pregnant and her fetus had no skull. And because of men involving themselves in women’s bodies she was forced to deliver the fetus… there’s a reason God created medicine.”🔥

This video will probably get fewer likes than my posts on taxing billionaires. That difference says it all. Factory farming only survives if we don’t look. It’s time to hold these companies accountable. Every donation is matched, so $1 becomes $2 through Dec 31, 2025. Donate: MoralAmbition.org/food
I'm gonna pull out an old word for this one...Squee!!😍

Message to our friends from our hoomom. If able plz consider donating to a group that provides food for the beloved pets of people struggling right now. Our mum grew up very poor & remembers how hard it was to feed the family & their pet. Share some kindness. Love you all 🩷
Instead of Bernie Moreno creepily following us to the cars we use to get to work in the Capitol and writing down their VIN numbers, I'd suggest he use his time in more productive ways …

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing? 2? Questions I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up. Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?
If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.
Donald Trump Truth Social Post: Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also.
I will not back down.
Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.
What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
Update on Boomertifa from the war zone.
2015: Don’t read the comments
2025: The comments are now in charge
What??
Are they invading blue cities the “smart way??”
DONT’T NORMALIZE THIS.
A silent, inter-faith march near the ICE detention center in Portland, Oregon.
The marchers held flowers. 💐
NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable.
This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed.

Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading.
Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own.
Just. Keep. Reading.
This is the playbook, folks.
If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.
Do not be quiet in this moment.
Democratic elected officials, here's some unsolicited advice.
People are looking for leadership. Right now. This moment.
Someone, anyone, take the konch and forcefully respond to JD Vance and Stephen Miller's promise to declare war against America.
Speak up now. Press conference today.
