And the five-year-old boy who was in the car?

His mom says he's "traumatized" and hasn't spoken since the shooting.

People also cant believe there is such a thing as “cell rent.” 41 states have it & even if you leave early states like FL make you pay the TOTALITY of your original stay.

A year ago, @propublica.org told you immigration agents had detained more than 170 U.S. citizens.

We’ve updated our count, and we’ve got all the receipts.

The tally: At least 506 citizens detained. Sometimes held at gunpoint, handcuffed, or even deported.

At Cornell, one person— Christina Liang — handles every disciplinary case, including the Cornell Seven’s and the suspensions of over 40 protestors. Liang wrote in 2025 that “2024 was one of the most challenging years of my career…and it helped me learn that caring less is okay.”

"RKF took money earmarked to provide health care for Black infants and spent it on his personal security detail" is a ludicrous headline.

Out of the tens of thousands who boldly resisted the brutal attacks that ICE carried out on communities in the Twin Cities, the Trump regime is trying to make an example of fifteen of them in order to intimidate all of us out of standing up to protect each other.

Happy 72nd Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools.

She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama.

The past isn’t past.

To folks who think caving on things like “Lake America” doesn’t matter in the long run…

It does.

It invites more such ego-serving

It suggests that there’s no push back.

It teaches people to expect more of the same.

It matters.

Trump: “We don’t need no stinking’ Welland Canal! Niagara Falls is wide open for ships! Checkmate, Canada!”
Just a reminder that every ocean ship entering the Great Lakes goes through the Welland Canal. Eight locks, twenty-seven miles, all of it in Ontario.
That is the route. $26.3 billion of American trade depends on it.

Trump didn’t think this through.
