His 6 month old stopped breathing! HIS SIX MONTH OLD STOPPED BREATHING! A father was getting his kids out of the neighborhood because it was unsafe & ICE threw flash bangs & tear gas at his car with children & a baby inside! His 6 month old stopped breathing & all the children were hospitalized!

Today marks one year since the Dec. 3, 2024 martial law declaration that rocked South Korea and still reverberates today. What’s on my mind today is the grit of South Koreans who rushed to the National Assembly that night, in freezing weather, to demand a return to democratic government.

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

Some of us have risked our safety, our financial security, our freedom. Just once, it would be nice for them to show an ounce of the courage the people are demonstrating every fucking day.

I’m not trying to give @pbs.org ideas for raising money—but I am. I would buy women’s fit T-shirts of all my favorite childhood shows. Reading rainbow, 321 contact, square one, zoobiliee zoo. I feel like two generations will run to donate even more money for shirts with Levar Burton on them…

Illinois State Police are protecting ICE as they move their vehicles out of the Broadview Detention Center. Call Governor Pritzker now to demand that he remove the ISP from Broadview. No state resources to protect kidnappers. Pritzker: Call off the IL state police 312-814-2121

I also have no nostalgia for the road to fascism, which is a trap I think a lot of liberal and progressive folks are falling into—romanticizing the conditions that preceded this moment of acceleration. The path that led to this mess is not the way out.

Kristi Noem couldn’t get to Twitter fast enough to use the Dallas ICE shooting for political points. But local news now says it was detainees who were shot — not ICE agents. She played politics, and three human beings are dead. We need an investigation into how this happened now!

Sorry the reason you are not seeing Black voices platformed to speak to this moment & are in fact seeing what few there were repressed is due to no lack of qualified Black intellectuals, it's deliberate white supremacism, so don't put a naive act on.

I’m a Lynx fan, so I have never liked Sandy Brondello. She made PHX and NY a big problem for MN and that is exactly why it’s CRAZY that she’s been fired. I love women’s basketball, but the league and some of the organizations are making terrible staffing choices. #wnba

In case you were wondering if Cunningham was still a terrible bigot. The Fever actively (probably with help of Clark) recruited her knowing full well the issues they're having with their fanbase and her ideologies. This is what I mean when I say the Fever knowingly court a right wing culture. #wnba

FOR THE FOLKS WONDERING WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE: There is a direct ideological throughline between the "anti-CRT" movement/attacks on Black studies and the firing of Stephen Colbert and suspension of Jimmy Kimmel. Not posting this to say "I told you so" but bc you must understand the storyline.

Do not assume that everything they set out to do is inevitable. They have been successfully fought on multiple fronts, from courtroom wins that have actually stuck to city and state governments that haven't backed down, to activists in the streets organizing against their violence.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.
