ICE activity continues to interrupt daily life for students, staff and families, despite the announced end of the two-month surge of federal immigration agents. Students attend school remotely, staff monitor arrival and dismissal, and leaders wonder when they can resume normal school operations.
ICE raids are tanking paychecks & now tenants + unions are escalating.
@rebeccaburns.bsky.social & @sarahlazare.bsky.social report Twin Cities Tenants aims to secure 10K rent-strike pledges by March 1, with 25K+ workers demanding an eviction moratorium & $50M in rent relief.
NJ lawmakers introduce the FUCK ICE Act.
The bill "permits civil action for violations of US Constitution related to immigration enforcement."
This is a massive, massive lie aimed at making it harder for ordinary people to vote.

In the year since his confirmation, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum has given the members of Congress who voted to confirm him ample reason to regret it: Heβs been an obedient sycophant and the worst secretary of the interior in U.S. history.
A lot of the debate about AI seems (to me) to be overly personality-driven. We can see the dangers: massive job losses, concentration of wealth, and total lack of safety regulations. Turns out left wing policies are a pretty good prescription for our AI future!

CBP has murdered another person in Minneapolis, in broad daylight, on video. This was not an accident or an isolated incident. There is no finger-pointing or spin Trump and Republicans can put on this to convince anyone otherwise. This is murder β just like we saw with Renee Nicole Good.

Minneapolis is about to do something big.
