In addition to Good's murder, ICE has been busy in Minneapolis causing car wrecks and traffic jams, filling the streets with tear gas and goons with loaded weapons, issuing specific threats and sewing general chaos.
This is not law enforcement to preserve order. It's an occupation to cause chaos.
Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity.

In short: Even though the court ordered discovery based on the likelihood of vindictive and selective prosecution, we don't even need to get into it and you should dismiss the charges now given we just learned the DOJ lied to a judge about Costa Rica not accepting Mr. Abrego.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia's lawyers inform a federal judge about the Washington Post's bombshell: The government's claim that Costa Rica will no longer accept Abrego has been exposed as a lie.
More evidence—"if any were needed"—of vindictive prosecution.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: The crux of the entire diplomatic situation is that it was Russia, and only Russia, that started this war, and it is Russia, and only Russia, that has been refusing to end it throughout the full-scale invasion.
Why should I spend my time phone banking on the SUFS Aftyn campaign?
1. The numbers for a win are there! We have to get out the vote.
2. Calling works!
3. Putting out the science X democracy fire requires us to take back Congress. This gets us one seat closer to 218.
4. IT IS A WINNABLE RACE!
TAKE ACTION! Hit the phones with us on Saturday and Sunday for @aftynbehn4tn, and help bring sanity back to science policy. Sign up at zurl.co/5aOiP (linked in our bio) to get started. All you need is a phone and a zeal for action!
Stunning development: Senators now confirm the Trump admin’s 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine wasn’t a U.S. plan at all. It was a Russian wish list. Follow along. This is crazy. 1/
There are two more docs with additions to the document, pls find them below
Notably, US is leaking a doc feat Russian points with some changes:
Cap on Ukraine's military from 600K to 800K
Zaporizhzhia NPP 50/50 split
All these are illegal.
Will update the article once anything is confirmed.
Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth just launched a sham investigation into me for my support for Ukraine, all because I demanded Trump’s call transcripts with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman be released.
Instead of transparency, I was met with retaliation.
NEW: After fighting to keep emails between Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s office and billionaire Elon Musk’s companies secret, officials have released nearly 1,400 pages of documents to The Texas Newsroom.
All but about 200 pages are blacked out.
Every day there are multiple instances of blatant corruption. Our government policy is for sale to the highest bidder and every bad actor in the world knows it. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/w...
In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.
Instead of funneling endless amounts of money into our bloated Pentagon budget while thousands of veterans face homelessness and hunger, let’s use those funds to truly take care of our veterans — ensuring every one has a home, food, and access to medical and mental health care.
Khanna: I’ll break some news — we’re talking with Massie now about getting another major press conference with the survivors early next week at the Capitol. There’s going to be so much momentum, left and right, to say: out with the Epstein class…
A couple months back, I was curious as to how Bill Pulte was able to obtain Lisa Cook and Letitia James' mortgage documents. Today, the WSJ reports that he was actually under investigation for how he obtained them. www.wsj.com/finance/regu...
Collins: When the president says there's virtually no inflation and that grocery prices are going down, do you agree with him on that?
Greene: No. I go to the grocery store myself. Grocery prices remain high. Energy prices are high.
Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"
TODAY ➡️ Since August, the National Guard has been roaming DC intimidating people, crashing into cars, and calling the police if anyone makes fun of them.
DC is suing to get them out and the suit's first hearing is today. Join us at 12:30 to pack the court: freedcproject.org/event-list/p...
Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.
It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.
It corrupts our political system every day.
In under 12 months the US National debt has accelerated to $38 trillion with the Lying Thief's regime.
The Criminal has pocketed approx. $1.8 billion while raping the US.
He is destroying the country & the planet, to feed his insatiable greed.
Get rid of this destructive, selfish, egomaniac.
OMG! In Comey's motion to dismiss for vindictive prosecution, he points to others who have lied to Congress that were NOT prosecuted. Number one is JEFF SESSIONS when he said "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two, but I did not have contact with the Russians." 1/
Ted finally deleted this lie over 24 hours later. Only the 900th time he has posted a fake right-wing internet lie. You would think a US Senator would take a few minutes to make sure these things are legit, but we are talking about Ted Cruz.
I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.
An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative
It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.
Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.
Good job Coast Guard. Interdiction takes drugs off the streets and gives us evidence to go after kingpins. That should be the strategy in the Caribbean rather than illegally bombing boats that may or may not contain drugs.

“Hello. You have reached the voicemail for the FBI. All our agents are currently busy redacting names from the Epstein files, doctoring evidence to politicize mass shootings and investigating anyone the President does not like. Please leave your contact info and someone will call you back soon.”
Welker: They say the house is not in session because you don't want to swear in the newly elected democratic congresswoman who would be a critical vote to releasing the Epstein files.
Johnson: It's totally absurd. This has nothing to do with that. It's another red herring.
This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.
Community action works.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.
Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.
Sanders: I am not a great fan of the affordable care act. I believe in medicare for all. I think that health care is a human right, but I will be damned if I'm going to see people in Vermont and around this country see a doubling in their premiums.
Many media outlets hid the full truth of Trump -- his background in organized crime, his Epstein ties -- out of fear, only to be obliterated by him in the end. Had they not self-censored then, they might not be state-censored now. When you hide the truth, you face the consequences.
“WaPo:
President Trump declined to approve more than $400 million in military aid to Taiwan this summer, as he tries to negotiate a trade deal and potential summit with Xi Jinping...
Uh-huh.
‘We can’t support Ukraine because we have to save money for Taiwan…’”
