- I think I'll share it, too, for good measure. Racists suck.
- No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
- Accurate.

- Wait. Didn't we just hear about how churches should be havens of safety for congregants... from DHS? After all, they arrested protesters and journalists in Minnesota for disrupting a service.
- It would be really interesting if people with children started doing this--might make an impact on Meemaw and PawPaw if the grandkids weren't allowed near them.

- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦When a president talks about skipping elections and floating an unconstitutional 3rd term, it’s not hard to see what this is and what it isn’t. Seizing election material in a state that already counted the 2020 results three separate times isn’t about election integrity. It’s about preparation.
- How about if everyone, whenever speaking of 45/47, says one of the following: Pedophile Trump, Pedophile-in-Chief, Pedophile of the United States. Every. Single. Time. We can't let up on this. The man is a criminal and should be doing time.

- I'm thinking that maybe the American people should know about any "death, physical abuse, or injury" perpetrated by Trump and his pedo buddies... How 'bout you?
- I love this idea... Because we all know that they will otherwise say one thing and do another.

The family is seeking Maher's release so he can attend his son's funeral. ICE reportedly denied the request. Unimaginable cruelty.

- Some facts... for those who still believe in facts.
- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."
- So much for that Second Amendment some of you love more than our country's children...
- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop. It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities. I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.
- Another American citizen murdered by the MAGA administration.
- The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon. wapo.st/49Zqv1L
- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦“Shot dead” is passive. “murdered” names the actor. Words matter, especially when the state is pulling the trigger.
- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/
- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦Holy shit. This speaks volumes about the midterms ahead.
- Does MAGA bother to watch the videos for themselves or just swallow whatever BS they are fed? If I were MAGA, I would be insulted that my party's leadership thinks I'm so incredibly stupid as to believe an obvious lie when evidence to the contrary is so widely available.

- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin. Here is a photo he used for several accounts.
- The Strib has identified him. Alex Pretti. Another 37-year-old executed for standing up for our immigrant neighbors. For shame. www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi...
- So much for those 2A rights...
- Reposted by MB Sweetzer 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇦By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.
- I would love to see Newsom just start reaching out to world leaders and meeting with them, negotiating things for California... It will absolutely drive Trump bonkers (okay, we all know he's already bonkers, but you catch my drift).
- ICE murdered another man this morning. Enough!
