This is who the Minnesota WILD GM wanted in the US Men's locker room to celebrate. Someone who is actively covering up the murders of 2 Minnesotans.

Inside the upheaval at the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office Nearly half its lawyers have left since President Trump’s return, leading to dismissed criminal cases, stalled fraud prosecutions and a rare contempt citation against a Justice Department attorney.

Refugee released by Border Patrol found dead, sparking outrage Surveillance video obtained by The Post shows Border Patrol agents releasing the partially blind refugee, who went missing for days before being found dead.

1. The footage shows Homeland Security is lying when he got indoors and was wearing prison booties I doubt are good for the cold.
2. Nurul Amin Shah Alam apologized to police BEFORE he was tasered when he was originally arrested.

The Washington Post's description of the bodycam video of his arrest last year, and the translation of Mr. Shah Alam's comments, is gutting. Remember, he was entirely blind in one eye and could only see three feet in the other, and he spoke virtually no English.

He spent a year in jail for this.

i literally just emailed her again, about this, and said "i look forward to your generic reponse"

JUST IN: Judge Murphy has ruled that the Trump administration's policy of sending deported immigrants to third countries without notice or a chance to challenge is illegal and unconstitutional.

Minnesota child: Is it cold out?

Minnesota mom: No, it’s nice. Sunny. No wind.

Narrator: It was 10 degrees.

My kids, as 4 & 6 year olds, would call it “mom’s driving music”

The level of anger normal Minnesota people have at their elected representatives is palpable. It's not about party, but the perceived failure of local/state electeds to do anything of substance to protect residents who pay their taxes and get left facing off alone against masked, armed men.

What a heart-warming, accurate picture of the Minnesota resistance. Bringing light to the darkness.

Wonderfully written NY Times piece by a local dad involved in the resistance, really echoes with a lot of what we’re feeling: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/18/o... (gift link)

Cardinal Tobin celebrates Ash Wednesday Mass for detainees in Newark ICE facility NEWARK, N.J. (RNS) — The Newark bishops are the only confirmed U.S. bishops who plan to celebrate Ash Wednesday Mass in an ICE detention facility.

Marine Detained in Minneapolis Says Feds Copied His Phone Without a Warrant He was observing after Alex Pretti’s killing. Feds detained him at gunpoint, sampled his DNA, scanned his face, and cloned his phone.

A Marine veteran who witnessed Alex Pretti shooting claims that federal agents held a gun to his head, detained him, seized his phone, took fingerprints and DNA without a warrant, and held him for eight hours before releasing him without charges into subzero temperatures.

Specific to the BS we are living through now, I crowdsourced this playlist a couple weeks ago.

I watched this recap. Awful that they changed the order!

What?

How cool is it that that a woman who went to medical school in Minnesota and learned to cross country ski here is the first Mexican female to compete in the sport in Olympics. And Jessie Diggins met her at the finish line. The video is heart-melting.

Regina Martínez Lorenzo is the first Mexican woman to compete in Olympics cross-country skiing.

Other racers waited at the finish line to hug her. Brazil’s Bruna Moura, an 3 medalists, Karlsson, Ebba Andersson of Sweden, and Jessie Diggins from the US.

She learned to ski while in med school in MN.

I watched a video of a wine mom in Kansas City casually torching a proposed ICE facility with lighter fluid in broad fucking daylight, and then saw a tweet from Amy Klobuchar about grocery prices and, Jesus, please try to keep up

Absolutely beautiful Steve Sack

Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Ironic to be writing about photography without crediting the photographer. Also saw several extremely high profile posts yesterday. Even “alt text” on a post would be … something

Journalism deserves monetary support and recognition. it doesn't just happen magically ...

balding man with gray hair and beard stands in the snow in his front yard, clad in a dark gray bathrobe. he's holding a phone up, recording a video of ICE activity on his street. photo taken in Minneapolis the week after Renee Good's murder.

The number of ICONIC observers in bathrobes here in the Twin Cities is higher than it should be.
