he cares about the latino community when he needs a photo op but is noticeable absent when ICE shows up

It is very important to remind people, at every opportunity, that Mayor Jacob Frey has sole and exclusive authority over the Minneapolis Police Department.

This is Jacob Frey's MPD assisting Donald Trump's feds in a raid on Minneapolis.

New head of Social Security, hired from Wall Street, tells staff he had to Google the job when he was offered it Newly sworn-in Social Security chief Frank Bisignano, who previously was a Wall Street executive, told staffers he had to Google the SSA job when it was offered to him.

“What the heck’s the commissioner of Social Security?"

That's a real question from Frank Bisignano...the commissioner of Social Security.

Millions of Americans depend on Social Security. They should be able to trust that the head of the agency even knows what the job is.

We needed one more vote in the house to defeat the republican bill but instead we had multiple dead democrats not voting.

Democrats really need to learn what a primary is for incumbents. The party has been shitting the bed for many many cycles. Democrats have been dying in office far more than republicans and lost to Trump twice. They need to stop caring about big money and let younger people lead.

I feel like there is a massive opportunity to bring in renters/transit riders this cycle. There's such a weird communication disconnect from the online left and the rest of the renters and transit riders that if bridged could improve the chances of progressives.

Incredible work to expose how insane it is that a bunch of landlords and a couple republicans are trying to take control of Minneapolis. Also btw hi to whoever is on the We love Minneapolis bluesky account since you follow me for some reason.

The American right truly got monkey pawed with their desire to have an American pope and I’m all for it seeing the meltdown from the right.

Bitch blue states like California and New York fund the federal government so places like the Deep South don’t become even closer to third world standards.

RFK Jr. says there aren't autistic poets. We asked an autistic poet. "I will challenge RFK Jr. to write a poem as good as me any day of the week."

RFK Jr. says there are no autistic poets, so we interviewed one.

Hear from Elizabeth McClellan, @popelizbet.bsky.social, an award-winning poet, attorney, and legal educator based in Memphis, Tennessee.

RFK and Trump might just literally end up causing the deaths of 100s of thousands of Americans if not millions in a worst case scenario.

If only @mndot.mn.gov did not force the @metcouncilmn.bsky.social to delay the F line. The route 10 bus I’m on almost could not handle anymore people and the driver had to get people standing up towards the back of the bus to let more people on. Bigger busses would be nice if possible.

This is pure comedy.

Jumpscare of the week for me the random follow from all of Mpls. I guess they are just following political accounts from Minneapolis/the twin cities. I wonder if this is even actually tied to All of Mpls.

I find it funny that 2nd term Trump is likely the most anti free market president of the last 100 years at least. So much for Republicans being the free market party 💀

If she was that confident, she wouldn’t object to due process.

I think progressives have had a problem with "purity tests" (the need for all leaders to have tightly aligned perspectives or else stay quiet about it)

And I think the Democratic Party has had a problem with being...undemocratic - with too much power in the institution and not in the people.

Scorpion and frog "the scorpion won't sting me if i grovel and beg enough"

dkc funky kong, looking unconcerned

dkc funky kong is a leftist. dk64 funky kong was absolutely at january 6

This is idiotic. You spent several years passing massive bills on slim margins, on the exact theory "if we can create a bunch of jobs that help people, they'll vote for us." It failed miserably. Primary him with the rest

Remember that this is where his discussions with El Salvador began. The migrant detentions there are the dry run. He wants to ship U.S. prisoners to El Salvador.We cannot sleepwalk through this.

I feel like a major problem with America that does not get stated enough is that the population of this country is horrifying apathetic to politics and/or lacks empathy for all of society. Those two factors let a third of the country who are pretty much fascist completely take over the country.

Feels like the main thing you should know about the Democratic Party is that three years ago they controlled a trifecta after Trump tried to launch a coup, and they dismissed everyone who said they should impose accountability and said “no, we know how to beat him at the polls: kitchen-table ads”

Thank god….

Trump would never make Canada a state since it would completely tilt the control of both the house and presidency to the dems so instead they would be a territory which I’m sure will lead to a insurgency and terrorist attacks if we can even occupy it without unrest from US citizens or getting bogged

I don’t think enough people realize how dangerous RFK is. His disregard of science and infectious diseases could literally cause the deaths of 10s millions of Americans if something like bird flu spreads human to human. Not to mention he wants to put people like me in work camps who are mentally ill
