US protesters shot fireworks at the hotel where ICE agents are staying at in Minneapolis. They also played loud music and banged on windows. #ReneeNicoleGood #ReneeGood #3E #EndImpunity

The states ethnic cleansing police returns to the scene of the original genocide.

Like nothing left to analogy. It this was a show it’d be criticized for being too literal.
Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

Whistles at the Renee Good Memorial in Minneapolis. The whistle has really become a sound of day to day life on the south side.

The whistles along with car horns are used to warn others of ICE or federal agents in the area.

One of the things that genuinely shocked me as I read through surveillance logs for the police is how much of their energy and attention is dedicated to shutting down vigils and other ceremonies of remembrance.
Anyway ICE was filmed desecrating Renee Nicole Good’s memorial & doing violence to people who found that distasteful. Might be too soon to say if this falls into some kind of pattern of behavior if you’re the stupidest motherfucker on earth.
It would appear that uncritically funding the people that hate us so much that they mint coins commemorating body counts instead of listening to the people who said that the institutional rot within the police is so deeply engrained that they represent a danger to us all has mysteriously backfired.

I'm seeing fewer posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation, and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them and losing them money.

Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

and people are wondering why artists are so mad àï stole our labor

this is why they want it so bad
our labor has value
These are spreads for McCall's magazine by Andy Virgil, 1959. Each spread was paying about $1,500 at that time. Today that would be between $9,000-$12,000. The average price of a brand new car in 1959 was $2,200.

You know what's funny about Chris Pratt

If you saw him on twitter, you had his number years ago. People who are asshats who do social media, show themselves to be asshats over time pretty quickly.

That's a great thing about social media, imo.

Because it cleared hurdles, yes, but support for this is shaky (even for some Republicans) and with enough continued outrage we CAN sink this ridiculous proposal!
“The rule, as reportedly rewritten by Senate Commerce Chair Ted Cruz in an attempt to comply with budgetary rules, would withhold federal broadband funding from states if they try to enforce AI regulations in the next 10 years.”

to be clear, Iranian Parliament has voted to allow the Security Council to make the determination, apparently not every country just takes major geopolitical decisions based on one guy's mood swings
UPDATE: Iran has just voted to close the Strait of Hormuz. (Higher prices on everything loading)

Bolts has heard from several Native voting rights groups that have been forced to downsize, as some foundations and donors fear funding democracy work. Says an advocate: “There is a huge effort to attack our democracy and our rights as Native people." boltsmag.org/voting-...
“A Law Without a Way to Enforce It”
In North Dakota as elsewhere, Native groups face a triple threat on voting rights: judges targeting the VRA, Trump officials hostile to enforcing it, and a funding crunch depleting their work.
