No congressional approval, American troops being thrust into danger with no plan for what’s next.

In just the first two months of 2026, the US invaded one country to arrest and imprison their president (while pardoning another foreign president serving time in the U.S. for the exact same crime) and then started a war with another country, killed that country’s leader and immediate family.

The FBI being on high alert for terrorist actions is important right now.

Too bad they fired and gutted their counterterrorism capacity

This is all so unfuckingnecessary. Trump is preemptively waving away the upcoming deaths of American soldiers. Literally WHY. Trump — nor any administration yahoo — have given even a well crafted *lie* as to why we’re at war. There’s no money for our healthcare but there’s money for a damn war?!

I don’t even know anymore. War, the senseless murder of civilians, pedophiles in power, just a whole lot of fuckshit.

Iran Says Dozens Are Killed in Strike on School The strike on an elementary school in the southern Iran town of Minab was one of two attacks that appear to have hit schools during U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran on Saturday.

During the U.S. and Israel attack in Iran on Saturday, dozens of people, most of them likely children, were killed when a strike hit a girls’ elementary school in Minab and a high school in Tehran, according to Iranian health officials, state media and a human rights group.

Minnesotans: Some of our neighbors who have been sheltering in place are looking for ways to start getting back to work, but concerned about safety.

Many have skills that could benefit YOU... like cleaning, painting, car repair, home repair.

Hire them. Help other safe neighbors hire them, too.

The Iranian regime, to be clear, deserves no sympathy. It has wrought misery since its revolution 47 years ago: on its own people, on its neighbors and around the world. It massacred thousands of protesters this year. It imprisons and executes political dissidents. It oppresses women, L.G.B.T.Q. people and religious minorities. Its leaders have impoverished their own citizens while corruptly enriching themselves.

I yearn for the days when going to WAR wasn’t something that happened between going to bed at 11PM and my toddler needing me at 2:30AM.

US military used laser to take down Border Protection drone, lawmakers say Members of Congress say the U.S. military used a laser to shoot down a Customs and Border Protection drone.

NPR NEWS ALERT: The political climate is forcing many Latinos to question whether they belong.

Is it the “political climate” NPR? I don’t know. Seems like ICE raids, Kavanaugh Stops, and 100 minutes of racist invective from the president cheered on by half of congress aren’t things adequately captured by the term “political climate.”

Someone was abducted in St Anthony this morning at 6 AM near 29th Ave & Silver Lake Road. And then at 8 AM we saw at least 5 agents out of their vehicles at 26th & Jackson near Walgreens before they dispersed into the neighborhood.

This isn’t over. We still need people keeping watch & staying safe.

The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!
