Hey Minnesota: ICE is now on the ground in NE Minneapolis. See thread. Stay alert everyone!

Part of what to take from this is that solar power is The Future. Whoever has their hand up Trump's ass is only further isolating the US from the rest of the world. It's shameful and devastating and hurts so so many people, but they're guaranteeing the world will leave them behind.

ok so the times witnessed reporters receiving cash from Adams people three times at mayoral events and sat on it for over a month but couldn’t pass up a hot tip from a neonazi about Mamdani’s unsuccessful college application for long enough to check if the neonazi had already been identified

The only thing that can stop a neutral guy with a sandwich is three dozen Nazis in robot suits who will be executed in 2027 for crimes against humanity

Trump says the -818k 2024 benchmark payroll revisions show BLS commissioner McEntarfer was political and incompetent. Let’s look at the facts.
1. The revisions were released in Aug 2024, not Nov 15 as the president said. So the BLS release showing far less job growth came 3 mos. BEFORE the election

Even the Nixon Museum has a Watergate section.

If they are 8-10 years old, it might be the "end of life" warning that they need to be replaced.

My mom and stepdad are from the same diaspora group as Zohran Mamdani’s dad (same like “my stepdad was kicked out of the same town and knows some of his classmates”) and apparently the New York Times doesn’t understand how diaspora works, so I am going to tell you a little about my mom’s people!

This! Chris LeDoux accomplished a rich, emotional, complete story in a mere 2:28 with 3 stanzas and a key change. Perfect country song.
