Even in the middle of Derek Chauvin's trial, the police can't stop killing. Minneapolis police killed Daunte Wright, a young, unarmed Black man, this afternoon.

We want to thank our WFP champions in the Legislature for delivering historic wins for working people! From the country's first excluded workers fund to fully funding public schools, this year's budget brings meaningful change to our communities.

Tell your legislators, @CarlHeastie & @AndreaSCousins to increase funding for CUNY by $273.6 million, pass New Deal for CUNY legislation, and make the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share. #NewDeal4CUNY #InvestInOurNY

While we are waiting to learn more, we must reiterate that police violence and killings of people of color must end, as must the over-policing and racial profiling that are endemic to our white supremacist system of policing.

We also call for the naming of all officers and agencies involved. We have concerns that police appear to have used dangling air fresheners as an excuse for making a pretextual stop, something police do too often to target Black people.

The ACLU-MN calls for an immediate, transparent and independent investigation by an outside agency other than the Brooklyn Center Police or the BCA, and for the quick release of any body-cam footage.

This is what the Big Lie is all about. Three months after the election, and 61 court decisions later, Trump and his attorneys still refuse to acknowledge that he lost the election. Pathetic.

Some Republicans are coming out now to denounce their ties with Trump. The real moral question is not have they given up on Trump, but have they given up on the white supremacy of Trumpism?

Only 11 Republicans voted against the woman who called for the execution of the Speaker of the House. Meanwhile, 61 Republicans vote against the woman who voted to impeach Trump for inciting an insurrection. Let that sink in.
