I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children.
From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.
This is representative of how large Sandal looms in our hearts.
“I’ve lost 28 lbs because I can’t afford to eat.”
Since taking office, Trump has increased his net worth by $3B+ through insider trading and corruption.
Meanwhile, ordinary Americans can’t afford to eat.
The fact this is happening in the richest country on earth is disgusting.
Oh, this is … new …
Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

So many weird little guys and gals to love!
I’d like to give a Valentine to the whole city of Minneapolis. Hell, St. Paul too. I’m in a loving mood.

Agreed.
REALLY glad to have you back!

I’ve recently moved from a mostly in-office schedule (4 days a week) to a true hybrid schedule (2 days in office, 3 days remote) and while I’ve never been more productive, I will admit that there are distractions everywhere.
I just strongly prefer the distractions I have at home.
Oh my god, I know.
Especially in a world where DEV PATEL exists.
What are we even doing ???
She’s so hydrated!

An orange and white tabby cat sleeps on a green couch, one paw curled around his face. He looks a little bit like he is smiling.
A little of this, a little of that.
Well, that’s a load off my mind!
You have my attention …
I just thank the universe for the opportunity to bear witness.
He yearns for ham.

So that's now two members of Congress, both black, assaulted by overtly racist Trumpists over the span of a few days.
second sitting black congressperson to be assaulted in the past week. all the violence seems to be coming from one side, and it ain’t ours
Video shows agents disarmed Pretti before shooting him aiding shoved woman, yet Trump admin brands nurse assassin. Lies entomb heroism in fabricated frost. #StopMisinfo
This March 1965 Herblock cartoon about police violence against civil rights activists has added relevance today.
Joy to the world!
A doctor who witnessed the shooting submits a sworn declaration in federal litigation to halt ICE surge in MN:
"I did not see him attack the agents or brandish a weapon of any kind."
and
"The victim had at least three bullet wounds in his back."

1. I am a resident of the Whittier neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am over 18 years of age. I am a children's entertainer who specializes in face painting. 2. On Saturday, January 24, 2026, at about 8:50 am, I was getting ready to go to work when I heard whistles outside. I knew the whistles meant that ICE agents were in the area, so I decided to check it out on my way to work. I've been involved in observing in my community because it is so important to document what ICE is doing to my neighbors. Connecting to your local community and knowing who your neighbors are is something I profoundly value. 3. I drove to Nicollet Ave. and 26th where I could hear the whistles coming from. I turned south onto Nicollet. There were already several ICE agents there and they'd set up a sort of vehicle convoy on Nicollet and 28th. There were also about 15 observers there, recording and observing ICE. 4. I saw ICE agents surrounding cars and punching car windows. I also saw them stopping vehicles further down Nicollet, so I backed up because I didn't feel safe continuing on. 5. I noticed a man sort of acting to help traffic move more smoothly. He helped me find a place to park. I got out with my whistle and my camera. I went over to him and said something like, "I'm going to film and use my whistle." 6. It seemed like most ICE activity was happening a little farther down the street from us, near 27th. Someone was being thrown to the ground.
CASE 0:25-cv-04669-KMM-DTS Doc. 107 Filed 01/24/26 Page 3 of 5 7. I started recording. There was an agent by a car across the street. Two observers were a few feet away from the agent, blowing their whistles. One was wearing a backpack. 8. I and the man who was observing and helping direct traffic were standing in the street. There was a phone in the man's hand recording a video. 9. An agent approached and asked us to back up, so I moved slowly back onto the sidewalk. 10. The man stayed in the street, filming as the other observers I mentioned earlier were being forced backward by another ICE agent threatening them with pepper spray. The man went closer to support them as they got threatened, just with his camera out. I didn't see him reach for or hold a gun. 11. Then the ICE agent shoved one of the other observers to the ground. Then he started pepper spraying all three of them directly in the face and all over. The man with the phone put his hands above his head and the agent sprayed him again and pushed him. 12. Then the man tried to help up the woman the ICE agent had shoved to the ground. The ICE agents just kept spraying. More agents came over and grabbed the man who was still trying to help the woman get up. All three of the observers looked to have been badly affected by the pepper spray. I could feel the pepper spray in my eyes.
CASE 0:25-cv-04669-KMM-DTS Doc. 107 Filed 01/24/26 Page 4 of 5 13. The agents pulled the man on the ground. I didn't see him touch any of them-he wasn't even turned toward them. It didn't look like he was trying to resist, just trying to help the woman up. I didn't see him with a gun. They threw him to the ground. Four or five agents had him on the ground and they just started shooting him. They shot him so many times. 14.1 don't know why they shot him. He was only helping. I was five feet from him and they just shot him. 15. The video I recorded of what happened accurately depicts the events leading up to the agents shooting him and several minutes afterwards. The video is attached as Exhibit 1. 16. I have read the statement from DHS about what happened and it is wrong. The man did not approach the agents with a gun. He approached them with a camera. He was just trying to help a woman get up and they took him to the ground. 17. I feel afraid. Only hours have passed since they shot a man right in front me and I don't feel like I can go home because I heard agents were looking for me. I don't know what the agents will do when they find me. I do know that they're not telling the truth about what happened. I've heard that other witnesses might have been arrested and taken to the Whipple Building. 18. I am disgusted and gutted at how they are treating my neighbors and my state. I keep alternating between crying and feeling determined-it is important to remember the value of documenting injustice. We show up for the people who need us to bear 4

A witness to the Alex Pretti murder by regime forces reports fearing for her life and potential retaliation by the Trump regime, and says she is afraid to return home. #3E #GoodvsEvil
So, hypothetically, if you were to make a solo-cup-in-chain-link-fence message over an overpass, you’d be putting in the letters backwards. And, again hypothetically, you might want a template for that.
Hypothetically.
😢💔
Congrats on the goghurt, buddy.
Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.
