This is hard to listen to. Man, we have to do better than this. We just have to.

I really wish every article would say: "corrupt bureaucrat, Tom Homan..." If we're going to identify him as what he is.

I'm sure there's a bet to be made about how many times he says "Iceland" when he means "Greenland".

I mean, I wouldn't come to the US for vacation right now. It's scary enough as a citizen.

Based on my count, 37 per week is probably more appropriate.

Nothing says "I'm not this thing" more than having to say "I'm not this thing"

Bovino advanced all the way to within eyesight of Paisley Park, but his supply lines were stretched too thin and ultimately his frozen troops were encircled by Will Stancil and wine moms with whistles

This is so fucked up. Poor kid. That cop needs to be suspended or fired.

Maybe it's just that this week has been *a lot*, but I'm coming around on this. Let them stay. We're better at this than they are, and we're getting better every day. Keep them here and save the next city from having to do it.

This is an absolutely amazing conversation about what's happening in Minneapolis today. Please take 15 minutes to watch it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDVr...

Strava just asked me if I want to switch from a password to a one-time emailed code. Has anyone ever wanted that?

Yeah, I think Al's is going to be just fine

I live and work in Minneapolis and I've never seen anyone wear their passport in a lanyard like that. Where do they get this stuff?

I sometimes wish the Democratic Party in Congress consisted of any 260 people in the Minneapolis telephone directory rather than the 260 dignitaries now representing us.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

"Listen, we have killed and terrorized a LOT of Minnesotans in our time, so we speak from a place of authority when we say -- y'all are fucking outta control"

Dude, that's so funny. I thought the exact same thing when I watched that.

That's the most toothless, corporate stupidity I've read since I left corporate life. Large company CEOs might be the most irrelevant people on earth right now.

if instilling fear is the goal, they need a lot more training. i live in downtown minneapolis, and i can tell you that what they're instilling here is not fear. quite the opposite. people here are not afraid of them one bit.

sorry, but the Founding Fathers' original intent for the 2nd Amendment was always *just* to do school shootings

Minnesotan here 👋 Boycott it all! It's sad, but a lot of Americans can only hurt when it hurts them financially. Boycott everything from the US until this ends.

It's so fucking infuriating! Those of us with literally no power at all are trying so hard, and people with influence are doing absolutely nothing at all!
