Trump's war on Minnesota broke everything. It will take a lot (time, resources, people) to fix it.

It looks exquisite!

Government shutdown hits spring break travel with hours-long TSA lines A partial shutdown impacting the Department of Homeland Security left some travelers waiting hours at airport security checkpoints.

We offered to fund TSA. No conditions. Republicans refused.

They want the hostage, to extract more ICE money with. No ICE reforms

A million Minnesotans just died of irony poisoning

I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.

Wisconsin specific PSA: deadline to register to vote in the Supreme Court race is coming up mid-March.

1. Even if you think you’re registered, verify.

2. If you plan to register by mail: the deadline is 3/18 but *MAKE SURE TO DO IT DAYS EARLY* because new USPS rules: boltsmag.org/usps-postmar...

Make no mistake: the AI boom, and data center construction it requires, is nothing more than a massive giveaway to Big Tech oligarchs at the expense of our environment and our states’ public resources.

Our leaders should put communities before Big Tech's bottom lines.

Lindsey is particularly blood thirsty for wars he won't be fighting or sending his kids to fight. It's all just a fun game of talking tough by a small man.

Are you fucking kidding me? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? This got covered up for SEVEN YEARS?

One thing Trump has done is imbue one of his core beliefs into government practice: frivolous legal actions are powerful.

Threaten to sue someone. Actually sue them! He did this a lot as a businessman. Now DOJ does it. Does not matter if they lose - the legal hassles imposed are the punishment.

Photo of Roger Ebert with a Mac laptop in his lap. Text: "'Kindness' covers all of my political beliefs. No need to spell them out. I believe that if, at the end, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do. To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didn't always know this and am happy I lived long enough to find it out." - Roger Ebert (1942-2013)

oh no please don’t do this whatever would we do what an awful thing (cough cough)

Where do I sign up?

This sicko appreciates it! I picked mine up in person and it rocks.

I can’t believe how stupid everything is

I had something similar at Nationals Park last summer--the "perro caliente caraqueno", so I guess Venezuelan style: cabbage, onions, ketchup, mustard, salsa rosada, garlic-cilantro sauce, grated parm, and potato sticks. Messy as hell but soooo good!

Bahahahahahhahah

Even if it takes years, we have to bring EVERYONE who made this happen to justice. No moving on, no letting this go.

Revenge is good enough motivation for me personally, but the nobler and important reason is to ensure that anyone who thinks of doing this again knows they’ll rot in prison for it.

Emmanuel Damas died in ICE custody after ICE failed to treat a tooth issue that turned into pneumonia.

ICE didn't even keep his family updated.

The Trump admin's cruelty knows no bounds.

I'm pressing with Senator Markey and Rep. Pressley to hold ICE accountable.

Add this to our list of blatant war crimes. Hegseth, along with every officer along the chain of command, must be prosecuted.

That's a hell of an introduction! My first match was a scoreless draw at TCF in 2017, but it was enough to get me hooked.

You honestly couldn't make this shit up if you wanted to.

Yes, That Mancini’s: How a Legendary St. Paul Steakhouse Raised $35K for the Resistance - Racket ‘The Gathering for Good’ brought the West 7th neighborhood together.

“[Mancini] said, ‘I’m not ICE. We’re not ICE. And our neighbors are being harmed. I’m very concerned about what’s going on in our community, and we want to do something to help. What can we do?’" racketmn.com/yes-that-man...

Here's the full 3 minute pelican delay so you can have closure (h/t @sickoscommittee.org)

Voter suppression in Texas.

War with Iran, ICE agents rounding up and killing citizens, concentration camps under construction, crimes of a child rapist covered up by DOJ… Yup, total vindication for people who claimed our biggest threat was transgender folks using public restrooms.
