Loved that the cheers for the women’s hockey players absolutely drowned out the lukewarm reception to the MAGA men’s team players. This line was also a good clap back to the now infamous DT call to the men’s locker room after the men won the gold

I love my state #minnesota

Hey @snlnerds.bsky.social

Already looking forward to the green apple vs red Apple discourse on #HouseOfR this week. #KnightoftheSevenKingdoms @jowrotethis.bsky.social 🍏🍎

This made me weepy

Same. Same.

Spoke to Greg Ketter, owner of DreamHaven Books, just now. He’s grateful for all the book orders & knows the store’s site is struggling w/ the demand. Employees coming Monday to reboot the site & pack orders. There are so many that it may take a few extra days so please be patient & keep fighting. ✊🏽

YouTube video by Saturday Night Live Weekend Update: Tommy Brennan on Trump's ICE Deployments in Minnesota - SNL

SNL cut this from the live broadcast but it lifted my spirits for the last week. youtu.be/uA8Oury0a80?...

Time to retire the DJT cold opens. At least this one was a mildly amusing concept instead of the usual of JAJ basically quote exactly what was said that week. But given the execution of another innocent human in MN by Trump’s foot soldiers a few hours earlier, SNL should have changed the cold open

I’ve been referring to them as Nationalist Christians, aka Nat-Cs. Wish I could take credit for coming up with it

Ever want to go to the moon and back? Now your name can.

Hey national journalists who are following Jake around: get more interesting news than "what one Nazi thinks," come to the Art Sled rally!

Note to self. Visit this store ASAP and buy some yard signs

Screengrab from Minneapolis Tribune: “Witness: Officers in tactical gear try to breach home Witness Sam Warburton said he was at his home a few minutes away from the shooting and saw in his neighborhood group chat that ICE agents were knocking on the door of a home at N. 24th Avenue and N. Lyndale Avenue. He drove there immediately to find the block cordoned off by Minneapolis police, but he was able to get through the alleyway and could see the front of the house, where agents in tactical gear were shooting through the second floor window, he said. Announcements were made toward the house over loudspeaker, Warburton said. The door was broken down and at least two flash bang devices were used inside. He said he didn't know which agency they were from, but that all were wearing tactical gear rather than traditional police uniforms.”

Not long after shooting another person in Minneapolis, ICE invaded a private home with flash bangs and tactical gear, and broke down the door.

Minneapolis is under siege.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Renee Good should still be here.

She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth.

She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.

You mean she’s running a MaraThrawn, right? Our new word? 🤣

I’m sure she will be amazing! Good luck to @nancipants.bsky.social !!

Best thing you’ll hear all week. #MinnesotaStrong

Watching videos and reading posts about today’s #IceOut protests at #PowderhornPark in #Minneapolis is just what I needed to boost my spirits after the last week. Proud of my adopted home state for showing up today and this week.

Ha! I was thinking the same when I saw “bitter” cold. People who think 20 is bitter cold are obviously not from here 😎

Moving faster now in the road that's clear of ice. People are watching from their homes. Spontaneous chants are breaking out (and can periodically hear someone yelling, "a woman was murdered!").

In Minneapolis this afternoon—

Hundreds are streaming across the snow and ice into Powderhorn Park for a rally and march demanding ICE leave Minnesota.

It is bitterly cold. There are hardcore Midwesterners out here making their way in with trekking poles.

Congrats on the 5k and good luck on the marathrawn. Oh wait, I see what you did there 🤣

They hate Minnesota because we are a people who believe that "we all do better when we all do better."

Minnesota is one of the wealthiest, safest, and cleanest states in the country *because* of our openness and generosity.

Our quality of life is a direct challenge to their zero-sum worldview.

How to Be Okay When the World Isn't There has been so much pain and sorrow in the world as of late. I won’t list all of the horrors—you know them well. This post isn’t about the horrors of the world; it’s about you.In light of these eve...

We published this almost 10 years ago. We wish it hadn't been relevant so often since then, but we hope it helps you breathe for a moment today.

My wife and I watched The Life of Chuck last week and loved it. You were terrific in the role!
