I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Instead of seeking justice for Renee Good, Donald Trump is weaponizing the Justice Department to investigate and intimidate Democratic leaders in Minnesota. We will not stand by silently and be bullied into submission.

To be clear (since NPR isn't), the "joke" is premised on the fact that Trump is kidnapping people w/o due process and shipping them to offshore concentration slave camps in defiance of court orders, human rights accordances, the U.S. constitution, all tenets of common decency, and international law.

President Trump brought grievances to the Thanksgiving pardoning ceremony on Tuesday. He joked about sending the turkeys to a prison in El Salvador, and claimed that last year's turkey pardons were invalid. n.pr/48nUsYx

Periodic reminder that the original head of Hillsdale College divorced his first wife to marry his mistress, an employee. While married to wife #2 he was alleged to have had an affair with his own son’s wife who committed suicide on campus. They’d prefer you not know all that though.

I’m still pissed - and gutted. The donor list for Trump’s White House ballroom felt overwhelming — like how do we even begin to protest this? So I broke it down into small, doable actions. If you’re upset too, here’s how you can push back — even in 5-10 min chunks. 🧵/1 #CollaboratorsList

Aerial view of the White House and nearby government buildings in Washington, D.C., surrounded by autumn trees. The East Wing area appears demolished, with construction debris and cleared ground visible where the historic structure once stood. The scene is both surreal and heartbreaking against the familiar backdrop of the capital.Graphic titled “The White House Ballroom Donor-Collaborators” in large white and orange text on a blue background. Below, two columns list names of corporations and individuals who funded or supported the ballroom, including: Adelson Family Foundation, Amazon, Apple, Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, Comcast, Google, Lockheed Martin, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, Palantir Technologies Inc., Stephen A. Schwarzman, T-Mobile, and others. The handle @jfoxtales appears at the bottom in orange text.

WSJ edit board spins a fantasy: "for Mr. Trump, while this is a moment of personal sadness, it is also an opportunity for leadership...he can help the country rise above this madness. He can say that this is the moment when the descent into political violence must stop.” Meanwhile — no, he can’t:

Trump: "For years those on the radical left have compared wonderful Americans like Charlie to Nazis. This kind of rhetoric is directly responsible for the terrorism we're seeing in our country & it must stop right now. My admin will find each and every one of those who contributed to this atrocity"

"My photographer got hit twice by less than lethal rounds and he's got blood on one of his arms and we just took off running with the entire crowd. It was absolutely chaotic."

This is just sick. via @ktla.com: Footage obtained by KTLA shows a young man crying, saying his mother had just been taken, and children and protesters running from tear gas that was deployed when a crowd gathered at an immigration raid at a Ventura County farm this afternoon
