I stand in solidarity with the trans community and the city of Minneapolis, where I have lived my entire life. We will not be divided. ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€โšง๏ธ

Reupping this again. If youโ€™re wondering where the line is, itโ€™s already been crossed. The question is what we are going to do about it.

Likewise!

Thanks for stopping by the Humboldt Ave living room party, Katie.

Is it too much to also ask that he understand the concept of base load?

Sickening. Awful. And serious apocalypse now vibes for helicoptering around over your own damn country.

This horrified me at the time, weโ€™re repeating it on the daily now.

His parade was a bust, he wants to feel important and like everyone is hanging on his every word. Center of attention.

Itโ€™s probably time to remind ourselves that evangelicals support Israel and trump because they think war in Israel will bring about the end times.

Has there ever been a streakier team, for bad or good?

I mean not exactly fleshed out in the books but still.

Oppose everything. If you can shut it down, shut it down. If you can slow it down, slow it down. Leave nothing on the field.

Thatโ€™s deadly force with a vehicle. These so-called law enforcement officers belong in jail.

So the United States military sounded no better than the group of Boy Scouts in the first trump term. So much for more than two centuries of a depoliticized, independent military.

So heโ€™s not in the Epstein files then?

And instead of every major dem politician doing this, letโ€™s make it a coordinated piece of an organized resistance plan.

This whole thing is depressing to the very core.

I donโ€™t even remember how many members of the media were shot with rubber bullets, detained or harassed by the police here in Minnepolis five years ago.

We know this in Minneapolis all too well.

I reported some transphobic posts and left for good when I got the response that they were not in violation of the terms of service.

This is the way. We need our local police to back us up!

Mine, too. The pencil traffic was impressive.

โ€œIโ€™m just going to say it, shame on any of us who throws a trans child under the bus for thinking theyโ€™re going to get elected. That child deserves our support. Donโ€™t worry about the pollsters calling it distractions, because we need to be the party of human dignity.โ€

Good for Gov. Walz, who refuses to throw marginalized children under the bus because it's a "difficult" topic.

As a high school teacher and football coach, Coach Walz was the faculty sponsor for Mankato High School's Gay-Straught Alliance student club.

Thank you Coach for this great example!

Federal law enforcement should be unmasked, in professional dress/uniform, and should have weapons and vehicles appropriate to the mission they are performing. No more cosplay!

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

Absolutely, totally, completely unacceptable to have masked thugs with assault rifles and military vehicles in our city. You are in charge of MPD and we will hold you and MPD accountable.
