Amy Klobuchar’s Record on Trump Is Shameful - Racket As Minnesota's senior senator runs to replace Tim Walz as governor, her votes and positions on Trump, ICE, and labor should be disqualifying to progressive voters.

For no particular reason, thinking about how the Minneapolis Aquatennial was concocted by business men in 1940 to water down the memory of a 1934 Union victory that happened in spite of violent and deadly opposition

i love being reminded of us imperialism while ordering a cocktail. 😂 I guess ill go watch the bad bunny halftime show again to feel better. 🥲

You know Hawaiians are real Indigenous people who had their land stolen ... Right?

We all did more than Jacob Frey, can we agree on that?

Here's an incredible toolkit for people working to stop ICE buying or leasing warehouses to convert to concentration camps. From the amazing gang at @detentionwatchnetwork.org

There is so much pent up demand for joy and to believe in the future.

Immigrants can teach us how to fight dictators:

"Myrla Baldonado became one of the “forced disappearances” under Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos Sr., in 1983. She was kidnapped by state agents, swept away to a secret location, tortured, and then imprisoned for two years."

And yet:

Today is a good day for people to be reminded that we actually *can* hold the wealthy and powerful accountable, we just have to put in the work to get there.

If your elected official isn’t willing to put in the work, kick their ass out and find someone who will (that might end up being you!)

If you are in a government in Minnesota and your response to your constituents begging for help is to say that you can’t ruin the budget, you need to resign. This is an occupation by the federal government designed to ruin our lives. There is no status quo. Every priority has changed.

It would be a lot easier for people to “shop local” if we weren't already spending a bunch of money fundraising to keep our neighbors in their homes and fed because Gov Walz refuses to do an eviction moratorium.

Say it Matt: Abolish ice. Fund science, healthcare. Pay teachers. C'mon man. Not replace, abolish.

Tell them to attend a training, one is being held in cambridge.

Man, expectations are so low and I understand. People have been so beaten down politically that they think that nothing will be changed. But WE are the ones who have to push them to enact the policies they commit to. Nothing will 'just happen.'

Spending money on promoting empty words while fighting providing monetary support for businesses impacted by the illegal ICE occupation is very on brand

Yes. THEY KILLED OUR NEIGHBORS. They are walking freely about our streets, and our neighbors are dead.

it’s called being effective, actually listening to the ppl and not the donors and consultants.

Voting is harm reduction AND we want to rally behind a candidate like ilhan, like peggy (like mamdani), like ... Ffs, give us a progressive we can actually be excited about at the top of a ticket.

Way to make everything about you. Are you moving to Australia also?

Dem voters on a panel unanimously saying they want a progressive candidate, not a moderate

And this was interestingly unanimous— and not being that well reflected yet in the offerings from actual Dem politicians. Word to the wise

The kids are correct.

And MPD is collecting historic overtime payouts and for what? They didn’t stop any murders and schools were raided.

Let me tell you a tale of how completely the normies have been mobilized. My 14 year-old niece has done School of Rock for the past 5 years; last summer she was part of their touring band, and the kids loved playing together so much that they decided to keep doing it. (1/?)

AOC speaking in Berlin on Bad Bunny's performance at the Halftime show:

"Just putting those values on television, felt counter cultural rebellious resistant, and that I think speaks so much to the moment that we are in that it was defiant."

I feel this way about pretty much all vaccine-preventable infectious diseases. You shouldn't be allowed to dump cyanide into municipal drinking water and you shouldn't be allowed to recreationally spread viruses around shared public spaces.

Jacob: increases police size and budget every year for 8 years, no safeguards for OT abuse or lawsuits eating city funds

Council: we thought those were bad ideas, but we are where we are, can we do something about this crisis today?

Jacob: help my city budget it's dying because the council
