Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

This is interesting: New Mexico seems likely to pass a bill banning private ICE concentration camps in the state, despite some loss of jobs

Best gas masks “How did these people go out and get gas masks?” AG Bondi asked.

me, emotionally writing an essay on the use of force by federal agents: ok but what if i packaged this in the most insane way possible www.theverge.com/policy/86857...

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Certainly appears moms with whistles won the Battle of Minneapolis.

My library has an app. I can request books for our regional network of 40 libraries. It's fantastic.

Walz: "We have got children in Minnesota hiding in their houses, afraid to go outside. Many of us grew up reading that story of Anne Frank. Somebody is gonna write that children's story about Minnesota."

UPDATE: TIKTOK IS COOKED. Our videos went from tens of thousands to 0.

(seemingly a direct result of Trump & Bibi’s friends taking over)

Let’s be clear about something: This was an execution.

Rep. Moulton voted No on the Homeland Security approps bill this week.

Not a single Democratic Senator should vote Yes on that funding bill now. We cannot provide more resources to ICE or CBP. None of this is acceptable.

Tonight, on behalf of Minnesota law enforcement, I filed a lawsuit against DHS to prevent the destruction of evidence related to the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti.

DHS is not above the law, and Alex sure as hell is not beneath it.

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc...

Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

No words for this. Please share widely.

Bout time

So, hypothetically, if you were to make a solo-cup-in-chain-link-fence message over an overpass, you’d be putting in the letters backwards. And, again hypothetically, you might want a template for that.

Hypothetically.

CNN put together a clip of JD Vance claiming ICE agents have "absolute immunity" followed by him two weeks later claiming "I didn't say that officers who engage in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity"

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Hahaha. Canada, we love you. Honestly, not being invited is a badge of honor. Wear it proudly.

Thanks for this @atrupar.com.
I just donated $1500, and will match an additional $1500 from others. Just reply/DM with receipt screenshots.

Please help contribute to the front line against fascism in the US.

FACT: California sends $83 billion more to the federal government than we get back.

Trump can talk down on California all he wants, but California pays his bills.

Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping. Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

AI is pushing young people toward the trades Economic uncertainty and the specter of artificial intelligence have the next generation rolling up their sleeves in pursuit of a more stable job.

Earlier this year, the CEO of AI company Anthropic predicted the technology will lead to a sort of white-collar bloodbath. That uncertainty in the white-collar workforce has more young people turning to blue-collar work.

This is extremely important

Quoting Marketplace, "The stock market is not the economy."

The number of Europeans travelling to the US has cratered under Trump Year-on-year change in visitors to the US, by country of origin (%) Source: International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce FT graphic: John Burn-Murdoch / @jburnmurdoch OFT

The US is down at least $30 billion in tourism for 2025. International boycotts and a loss in appeal to visit due to Donald Trump has resulted in millions of trips canceled.

Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.

One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.

When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?

I knew cash was fading, but interesting that credit cards in wallets may disappear and we will just use our phones.

Remember: Trump or Russian propagandists might say otherwise, but Putin is not winning, and the Ukrainians are not losing.
