@KeithOlbermann I'm just praying I don't have to re-read The Handmaid's Tale and 1984 as field guides to survival November 9th.

Don't let the tech billionaires gaslight you into believing they deserve all the billions they have and that they shouldn'thave to pay taxes. They stole the accumulated knowledge of humankind and want us to believe it's all theirs. ://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8pw5Ftk/

This is what Trump's done to the people's house:

A third of it is rubble.

Another third is a cage match.

What a metaphor.

SEE IT FOR YOURSELF: Another ICE shooting in Minneapolis:

🚨 Video shows multiple ICE thugs wrestling someone near Nicollet and East 26th before the victim is shot. He appears lifeless.

Details are still coming in.

[Matt McDermott @mattmfm]

ICE attempted to order local police from the scene of the Minneapolis shooting, but the police chief refused and instructed his officers to preserve the crime scene.

Maybe I’m too much of a European, but I honestly can’t understand how so many Americans find it perfectly natural to be shot in the head on the spot for the slightest act of disobedience toward any sort of law enforcement. You might wanna revisit that "land of the free" thing.

[FactPost @factpostnews]

Pastor: I saw ICE agents circling a young woman who appeared to be Hispanic. I said to this ICE agent, 'Take me, stop harassing her.' The agent got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, 'Are you afraid now?' To which I said, 'I am not afraid.' The next thing I knew, they were putting handcuffs on me, and they put me in the back of an SUV. I asked them if I was under arrest. They said to me, 'Well, you're white, you won't be any fun anyway.'

WOW! Emily Heller, who was an eyewitness, is now speaking out to set the record straight.

Officers were screaming at Renee Good, “Move, move, move.”

So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨: New video completely destroys DHS’s story.

Renee Good arrived four minutes before ICE.

No one was stuck. Cars were moving freely.

She wasn’t blocking anything.

ICE showed up suddenly and aggressively and then they lied about it.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

In the current context, we are seeing an actual “short circuit” of #HumanRights. The right to freedom of expression, freedom of conscience, religious freedom, and even the right to life are being restricted in the name of other so-called new rights, with the result that the very framework of human rights is losing its vitality and creating space for force and oppression. This occurs when each right becomes self-referential, and especially when it becomes disconnected from reality, nature, and truth.

[Matt McDermott @mattmfm]

Must watch: NYT just released a damning forensic analysis of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

It flatly refutes Trump administration claims — confirming the motorist was driving away, not toward the officer, and the officer was not hit by the vehicle.

Minneapolis public schools canceled classes officials after Roosevelt High School said armed Border Patrol officers came on school property during dismissal Wednesday and began tackling people, handcuffed two staff members and released chemical weapons

[Benjamin Rubinstein @BenFRubinstein]

She didn’t deserve to be MURDERED by ICE

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

They’re now kicking over the candles lit for Renee Good.

“You know what that’s for?”
“I don’t give a f*ck.”

This is contempt, for a dead American, her family, and the public watching.

[Joshua Reed Eakle 🗽 @JoshEakle]

The reporting just keeps getting worse for ICE.

Renee Good's ex-husband told reporters this morning that:

1) Renee was not an activist
2) She was in the vicinity because she had just dropped off her 6 year-old off at school
3) She was a devoted Christian and stay-at-home mom

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: ICE/Border Patrol agents were filmed assaulting U.S. citizens outside a HIGH SCHOOL in Minneapolis, pepper-spraying students as agents swarmed the school entrance.

Let that sink in.

School administrators and staff desperately tried to get agents off school property, while ushering students away from armed federal agents.

Chaos. Panic. Children running for safety.

And yes… agents pepper-sprayed STUDENTS.

This didn’t happen by accident.

This happened because the Trump administration stripped schools of their “sensitive location” protections, opening the door for ICE and Border Patrol to operate on school grounds.

In plain terms:

The federal government intentionally removed protections that once kept armed agents away from children, and now we are watching the predictable result… kids being assaulted with chemical weapons at school.

Outside a high school.
In broad daylight.
On U.S. soil.

This is not “border security.”
This is state violence.
And it’s being unleashed on children.

[Tim Miller @Timodc]

I’m not easily shook these days but the number of people who think the appropriate punishment for not following a masked federal agent’s orders is assassination is rather shocking

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

🚨BREAKING: In a major blow to Donald Trump, the Senate voted 52–47 to advance a resolution that would bar the president from taking further military action in Venezuela without congressional approval.

Republican Sens. Paul, Hawley, Murkowski, Collins, and Young supported the measure, along with all Democrats.
