The lack of web accessibility on the TrumpRx site is absurd, though not surprising.

Update from a foster provider in occupied Minneapolis: for the first time, I have received birth certificates for the children in my care with a note that they are being sent to me in case I need to prove the citizenship of the children. The children are Lakota, the letter was from their ICWA worker
Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.
For every ICE arrest that draws a crowd with cameras and whistles, there are an untold number happening quietly when no one is watching.
These are the arrests you’re not seeing • Minnesota Reformer

I’m a Minneapolis resident, and I’ve never been asked what I think about rural Minnesota
Tear gas and smoke filling north and northeast Minneapolis tonight on is a perfectly clear winter night in the city. Keep your windows closed.
There is so much tear gas in the air it can be felt driving on the other side of highway 94 in Minneapolis - in your car.
It should be a goddamn crime to drench a residential neighborhood with tear gas.
This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars. ictnews.org/news/north-c...

Yeah man all my friends in Minnesota are buying high viz vests and forming human chains at class dismissals because ICE is targeting and tear gassing schools. I wonder why parents would want information about that.

This is Minneapolis: -drop the kids off for a day with their grandparents -go to brunch with your wife -get a text from neighbors who don’t have enough food & can’t leave home or they might be abducted by fed govt -get groceries as helicopters roar overhead -deliver food & this vehicle passes you
I say “why is it always us?” but it’s because we love and stand up for our neighbors and they fucking know it
Messages from Minneapolis Councilmember Jason Chavez on WCCO just now: 1) Call to ARREST ICE 2) If you live in South Mpls, the most helpful thing you can do today is PATROL YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD Join your neighbors: defend612.com
ICE agents stopped by protesters after the shooting an observer in Minneapolis, according to witnesse. ICE deployed pepper spray and tear gas.
just realized that it’s the first Weds of the month (a reminder to brace your already tense bodies for the tornado sirens in Mpls)
ICE reportedly shot someone at Portland and 33/34. Mspt saying bullets, could be less lethal 20+ agents on site, MPD and ambulances responding. Helicopters overhead

Dimitri Drekonja, MD, MS@dimitridrekonja.bsky.social · 11mo agoMy college cigar makes me a former smoker. My current running regimen is far less than it used to be, so I’m calling it physical inactivity. But it’s insane that these games have to be played for access to effective vaccines 🤬🤬🤬
I don’t understand how losing one single child wasn’t the final straw. Why are we constantly letting this happen to our children
“A shooting has occurred” funny how it’s always passive voice when we are talking about murder as if it just floated along on the air current and wasn’t an active choice
The Associated Press@apnews.com · 11mo agoA school shooter has been "contained" and is no longer an active threat to the community, authorities in Minneapolis say.

No one had died of measles in America for ten years, until yesterday. That 2015 death in WA was preceded by a 12y period of no US deaths. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt... HHS Secretary RFK Jr. says it’s “not unusual.” apnews.com/article/meas... It is unusual. www.cdc.gov/measles/data...
Ah yes, in case you forgot what day it is, the state of MN is here to remind me it’s another day ending in a ‘y’ with yet another helicopter circling my neighborhood. My nervous system can’t handle this anymore
If you have been meaning to help, the time is now. Multiple camps with fires and evictions at this moment. We'll be handing out hand warmers and coffee and supplies, bring warm clothes (especially gloves) if you want, or go let people just sit in your car to warm up until there's somewhere to go ❤️
