- Reposted by Andy VaughanMinnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

- Reposted by Andy VaughanAlex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now
- Reposted by Andy VaughanAlex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.
- Reposted by Andy VaughanI 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.

- Reposted by Andy VaughanAlthough Trump’s abhorrent political beliefs are ultimately more damaging to the nation, his reprehensible personality is more shocking to me on a personal level. I can’t fathom how anyone can support someone who is so obviously a terrible human being.
- Reposted by Andy VaughanI know I've been beating this drum for over seven years now, but Donald Trump is a very and truly sick man who should be in a mental or penal institution and certainly not the White House.

- Reposted by Andy VaughanFantastic win in Maryland. As the Trump admin attempts to destroy vital research, @uam-umd.bsky.social is fighting back & winning...& they're not done yet. As they celebrate this win, they're pushing for greater transparency, support for faculty & an academic freedom fund. Faculty, join your union!
- We @uam-umd.bsky.social won. Faculty packed town halls, talked to their colleagues and collected hundreds of petition signatures. Now UMD is coughing up $8.75m, during a deficit, to fund faculty whose research is under attack. Not enough, but a helluva thing for a union the state calls illegal.
