Conrad (Levi 19:34) 🚫🧊

Its a start. Yall rich and can do it. @governorwalz.mn.gov

There bloody helicopters overhead constantly and they now come out guns drawn immediately. Or gas canisters in hand.

You cant even go for a walk at a park without having to look over your shoulder.

We are very tired but minnesota strong and we ain't going down.

Just a quick update from the Twin Cities. (Please forgive the unsolicited message). THINGS ARE NOT BETTER IN MINNEAPOLIS. The media is mostly moving on, Trump is focused on other stuff, BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED ON THE GROUND. More than 2,000 DHS thugs continue to roam the streets, abducting people 24/7, assaulting legal observers with impunity, and routinely denying 1st, 4th, and 5th amendment rights. Drones and helicopters are overhead every day. Hundreds and hundreds of terrified families have not left their homes since mid-December ... relying on the community to bring them food and help with rent and other necessities. (Those people are NOT violent drug cartel sex offending murderers, as DHS would tell you. Most are legal residents or citizens.) If anything, things have just become more stressful and intractable (think trench warfare as a suitable metaphor): The resistance is better organized and numerous, but DHS has become more clever and better at disguise... and the county sheriff's office is increasingly supporting them . Do not let anyone tell you that Homans (the new person in charge of the occupation) is making anything better. Do not let anyone tell you that 700 ICE agents leaving the city has made much of a difference; the remaining force (again, ~2,000) is still larger than the entire city's police force (which is legally unable to do anything). Please call your congressional reps ... especially if there is any chance the administration might listen to them.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

Nothing has changed here.

So you might ask - how will we know when things have changed? For me it’s all the kids back in school.

Kid Rock lyrics about underage girls draw questions ahead of ‘faith and family’-based TPUSA show “I like ’em underage, see some say that’s statutory (but I say that’s mandatory),” Kid Rock sings on the 2001 song, which was also for a children’s movie.

you mean to tell me kid rock does’t actually care about faith and family??

Rest in peace Renee Good. Thank you for supporting our immigrant neighbors. You’ll always be our hero. 🕊️ 💜

i love that they're just ... giving the dildos back so people can throw them again!

what 😭😭😭😭

Love that Tom Homan’s public strategy is essentially if you sell your neighbors out, we wouldn’t need so many agents. How about you fuck off?

A thread regarding TryTank and Generative AI in the liturgical life of the Episcopal Church. 🕯️

The Episcopal Church is known to be progressive and kind, even permissive. But sometimes we have to say no. I will say no to Generative AI, I don't care what it costs me. I am a priest, I have taken vows in fear and trembling, and I will do my best to uphold them. 🕯️

To preach well is to do this boldly, humbly, in the name of God. Generative AI is not alive, it does not know God, it does not know human beings, it has taken no vows of faithfulness and pastoral responsibility. It has absolutely no place in the holy task of preaching. 🕯️

To preach is to take on a holy task that should make you shudder. It is opening up the Scriptures to proclaim God here and now, Christ and Christ crucified, Christ resurrected, for you and for me. It is to proclaim a message of life. 🕯️

My other serious problem with TryTank's decision and with Rev. Levenstrong's Generative AI soapbox is Rev. Levenstrong's longstanding push for clergy and lay leaders to use Generative AI for preaching, liturgy, and outreach.
Anathema. Seriously. 🕯️

I have deep concerns over the use of Generative AI in our church life. In fact, I am deeply against it. Here's why:

DeLauro to pressing clergy: 'I will not vote to abolish ICE' The Connecticut U.S. representative found herself at odds with faith leaders.

“I would rather you vote for what is morally correct,” Davidson said.

“Don’t talk to me about my own morality,” DeLauro shot back.

“Don’t tell your constituents what they can and can’t talk to you about,” replied Rev. Nathan Empsall. “What you are voting for is not moral.”

Witt: ”I am well aware that if I make the decision to notify [ICE about inmates subject to deportation], it could hurt my chances of being re-elected. But at least I could look at myself & say that I did what I thought was right to keep people safe.” However, she admits Homan might not honor a deal.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

Someone please remind me of this near Halloween

It also puts children at danger! It makes murder more likely for predators who dont want to be caught.

AND for children abused by family and friends, it makes it less likely they come forward because they dont want their uncle or dad or coach to be executed
