MAGA is a coward’s version of fascism: grievance without discipline, cruelty without courage.

Then when Bush and GOP economic policies crashed the economy in 2008, a lot of the people who moved in and made life better for everyone, lost everything, and left. Leaving a wake of vacant properties that attracted so much crime. But things got better again. And I started to tell Sumeek about the Oddfellows Hall. But remembered he wasn't here in 2020, when it was burned down.

@burnoutqueen Just came across this video on UpScrolled before reading your post. I have come across that famous "First they came for the..." quote many times in the past few years, but it hit really hard tonight.

Checking for a pulse and administering CPR is standard practice. Instead of doing either of those things, the ICE agents appeared to be counting his bullet wounds. I asked the ICE agents if the victim had a pulse, and they said they did not know.

AFL-CIO Mourns Killing of Minneapolis Union Member, Reiterates Calls for ICE to Leave Minnesota | AFL-CIO

AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler issued the following statement on the killing of Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a member of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), in Minneapolis:

The General Strike

The General strike -the people united shall never be stopped. If we strike together we can make true real change. Sign the strike card today.

The General Strike

Talked to a new neighbor, Sumeek, at candlelight vigil on 31st and Lake Street. He moved here last summer. I've been here since '98. He asked how the neighborhood has changed. Some ups and downs I said. Around Y2K immigrants from Central and South America moved in and fixed up so many vacant storefronts and houses. They really turned the neighborhood around. Made things so much better.

This is not Iran and this is not the West Bank. This is Main Street, USA, where another American citizen was murdered today by government forces.
