Try being a woman in America. Or a person of color. Or an LBGTQ+ person.

You. Have. No. Idea.

Trump says he is ending deportation protections for Somalis in Minnesota President Trump on Friday said he is ending deportation protections for Somali immigrants in Minnesota.

Minnesota be on alert - the logical next step here is ICE and National Guard escalation.

The aurora from the SW Minneapolis exurbs. The fuchsia and green were as vibrant to the naked eye, and the images don’t do it justice. I’ve never seen anything like it.

America, Trump will stop at nothing to starve you as a bargaining chip to take away your subsidized healthcare. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Thank you for the reminder. I saw that over the weekend and was horrified when I didn’t have time to deal with it. I did now. Signed, Former Strib Paid Subscriber

The upper left image is the US. St Paul, MN on the day Melissa Hortman, her husband and her dog were murdered in her home by a right-wing terrorist. It coincided with the June NoKings March.

People just accelerated purchases ahead of tariffs. It’s a SHIFT FORWARD, not an increase.

[insert] issue for this administration:
1. Blame women (all the better if BIPOC/LGBTQ+)
2. Make them suffer
3. Ensure people in the administration profit

Rinse. Repeat.

Saw another post that this relates fairly significantly to our doctor shortage and will further limit foreign physicians. Another step in their full-on effort to kill us all.

If only we honored children when they’re alive instead of when they’re dead/gravely wounded.

I say every single day that America is killing me and my death will be due to excess empathy. I can’t turn it off and the horrors grow and the breadth of them grow daily.

YouTube video by KARE 11 Commentary: A message for Vance Boelter

REALLY powerful editorial from our local Twin Cities NBC affiliate and the excellent Jana Shortal. I am DISGUSTED that the assassin of a lawmaker is free to share his insanity, terrorism and gaslighting from jail. WTF. At least this reporter and KARE11 calls it out for what it is. I am horrified.

Gilbert, the Hortmans’ golden retriever, was β€˜too happy-go-lucky’ to be a service dog Gilbert was humanely euthanized after being gravely injured in the shooting that killed Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark.

Disagree - they are geniuses. Right here is the clip that goes straight to Fox News, OAN, etc. and their viewers take it as fact.

Every time they word-vomit to congress they get these snippets of lies (aka β€œalternate facts”) to broadcast everywhere without the context that proves them wrong.

Nope. His complete lack of awareness of the est. 5.2 million who gathered April 5th in over 1,300 locations tells me he is selective in his knowledge of highly engaged citizens. Just as he’s been selective in all of his other options that significantly contributed to our current state of the state.

It has NEVER been so hard in my life to pay taxes - and (theoretically) I am pro-tax! Roads, education, support for those in need… happy to do my part. This shitshow? NOPE.
