this shit right here is wrecker shit, as much as wrecker shit as any online leftist has done, if not more so. no wonder so many people are repulsed by anyone (rightly) saying 'vote blue no matter who', the most powerful elected Dem in the nation won't do it! it undermines the whole coalition! jfc

It's been a real joy to be involved in this project -- join us for some training and community building for climate justice.

πŸŽ‰Come celebrate Jason’s birthday with us & help fuel the last push of the campaignβ€”he’s getting out the vote in a historically low turnout ward, which will have a huge impact on the mayoral race.

ALSO, Arbeiter is a dropoff site for @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social, so bring something warm to donate!

It’s Fateh vs. Frey right now. Progress vs. the same old lies.

There is room for all of us to rank candidates we support in November, but today, we need to unite to defeat Frey.

I hope all Davis & Hampton delegates vote to endorse Fateh and remind Frey that Mpls is united.

people come up with all kinds of fanciful math to justify billionaires' wealth but imo present political moment demonstrates conclusively that we need to tax billionaires at whatever rate will keep them focused on their own fucking business rather than our Medicaid and pediatric cancer research

the reaction to Mamdani's campaign is clear proof that centrism is a reactionary ideology, and has nothing to do with a pragmatic desire to win.

I have no sympathy for Ann Kim, but sucks to hear about Young Joni closing for the workers and diners alike. Also structurally, seems like restaurants are very hard to run profitably, even when successful, and the deciding factor is often "did the landlord think of a bigger number in the past year"

So many of these events were crazy, but my brain is broken by this part. A cop shows up, sees another cop there, pulls up next to him, he refuses to even look at her, and she doesn't even clock it as suspicious. Truly insane.

the company line from the Mayor and his dopey police sychophant surrogates, is that misinformation from activists escalated the trauma and panic of yesterday. No. Military vehicles, long guns, covered masked faces and jungle fatigues looking like a junta escalated panic and fear

Another demonstration of the fact that there is no point in bending to Trump, not just morally, but strategically. Columbia gave in & he just hits them harder... MAGA's goal is to destroy the universities (& newspapers & law firms etc etc etc) and the only logical approach is to unite and fight back

During the Line 3 pipeline review process in MN, our state agencies seemed to have this idea that "someone else" would consider the climate impacts -- that the responsibility couldn't be on THEM. Surprise: there is no magical climate superhero coming to save us! It's on us all.

Not a lot in the way of variety, but they're perfect: the Duck Duck Coffee breakfast sandwich made on one of their cheddar cayenne biscuits. Have to ask specifically for the biscuit and they're like 10x better that way!

Also the Butter Bakery breakfast sandwich Clint style.

This is the righteous fury that is called for when Republicans sentence whole communities to die and dare to call it fiscal responsibility.

Trump and his lackeys are openly defying multiple court orders. When do the judges start issuing warrants?

Trump 2.0 is a test. A test of our resolve to uphold our values as a nation, as a state, and as a city. This administration pushes up against our values everyday as a challenge to our values. Today, our state leaders failed that test.

Who is the target audience for this "bipartisan" bullshit? Republicans have no interest in governing. It's not noble to tout that you can "work together" with a party led by a rapist conman and full o techno-fascists, Christian nationalists and Nazis.

Incredibly disappointing. What is government for, if not a way for us to care for one another. Stripping healthcare from our neighbors based on their immigration status is cruel, and dehumanizing.

Press Conference: POCI Caucus Discusses Budget Targets Affecting Undocumented Minnesotans Healthcare YouTube video by Minnesota Senate Media Services

The joint targets released today are unacceptable. This proposal will harm our most vulnerable who are seeking a basic need - healthcare. Eliminating MNCare for undocumented Minnesotans is a morally repugnant decision the DFL should not accept in any form. www.youtube.com/live/1nf4m4a...

The way the Senate got steamrolled todayβ€”you’d think we were in the minority.

Heartbreaking day for immigrants, communities of color, and our base.
This is beyond fucked up.

Governor Walz, Majority Leader Erin Murphy, and Leader Hortman have agreed to rip away healthcare from undocumented adults. This is a betrayal of Minnesota values. A betrayal to undocumented community members who are our family, friends, and neighbors.
