They’re telling me a great empire will be destroyed if I attack Persia. Even the oracles who don’t like me very much, very nasty, they all said to me, “Sir, it’s one of the great empires, and it’ll be destroyed. And all because you attacked Persia.” That’s what they’re telling me.

really cannot be overstated how much contempt the Israeli government has for left wing Jews in the diaspora Bibi et al would, by and large, actually like us to be targeted so that either we’ll get in line or our corpses will further their political goals

Not going to reply post this to anyone because pile ons are happening everywhere. Simple statement - the best allies to American Jews, for the half century I've been alive, have always - ALWAYS - been American Muslims.

I just realized I should definitely have written a reply that said I don’t have a horse, of course, of course And I am not storing a horse, of course Much less a course of liquid horse For rebooting Mr. Ed

THE CHILDREN, Melissa Albert: This is an extraordinary book. It's a page-turner, full of mystery, but that's the least of it. The language is dusted with magic. I haven't read anything like it since Ray Bradbury. Will be published June 2nd. My advice: Be first in line.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

Absolutely call your Democratic representatives and senators (sit down PA, sorry). Simultaneously acknowledge (and maybe emphasize) that it would take fewer than *25* Republicans in congress to stop *ALL OF THIS*

"Here we are in Minneapolis donating food, donating games and books and art supplies to kids who can’t go outside, donating coats, donating meals, and donating whistles. We are learning how to make a functional community when it’s our own government disrupting our lives."

vindictive, vicious cruelty designed to humiliate and criminalize every trans person in kansas horrifying fascist shit reminiscent of the runup to the literal holocaust

This is bigotry, pure and simple. open.substack.com/pub/erininth...

Trump administration tries to deprive poor Minnesotans of health care because brave Minnesotans stood up to them.

at last, we have invented retrophenology from the classic Discworld text Don’t Invent Retrophenology

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon (with apologies to @kcg.bsky.social)…

We wanted to understand how the president can impose new tariffs after the Supreme Court struck down his old ones. So we talked to three unvaccinated Jason Aldean fans at a Red Lobster in Lubbock.

Platner's not dumb. If he was, I'd say, "whatever." But a guy who knows *best case* he has to live down a Nazi tattoo he implausibly claims he didn't know was a Nazi tattoo, channeling Protocols of Elders of Zion? To hell w/ him & anyone who chooses to remain willfully ignorant about this Fetterman.

I hope John Roberts signed all his mortgage paperwork correctly

we're actually living in a cyberpunk buddy comedy anime about a gay psychopath who's really into lord of the rings and his autistic nazi friend with a breeding fetish who's really into rockets. there's a bald man who's their less cool pickme friend. everyone else is a foil

Crazy ICE experiences yesterday! Four ICE vehicles boxed me in outside my own house after following me home and trying to have me arrested. Watch the video for details!

Angie Craig, Daniel Craig, Larry Craig. It don't matter. Flanagan +7 in the general.

We are living through dark, disturbing and dangerous times, but do not despair — the cavalry is coming! Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will be taking the stage this spring from Minneapolis to California to Texas to Washington, D.C. for the Land of Hope And Dreams American Tour.

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

I miss when you could post Brave Norman Rockwell Townsperson and the caption could be, like, “R.E.M was wrong to leave ‘Fretless’ off of Out of Time” instead of “The secret police should stop murdering people.”

We wanted to understand how mRNA vaccines work. So we talked to three cocaine addicts in a gas station bathroom off Route 6.

hello and welcome to the political genius exam. here is question one. which is a more compelling message: - the president is sending armies to occupy cities and kidnap and kill people and your town could be next - a meal at the cheesecake factory that previously cost $100 now costs $104.9

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.

We continue to see no drawdown today with ICE activity in the Phillips neighborhood, Columbia Heights, and Shakopee. Our pressure is working as the Senate bill to fund DHS did not pass last night. Keep up the pressure by reaching out to your federal representatives.

ICE is all over the south metro today (Savage, Burnsville, Eagan), this is definitely not over.

Spoiler alert: When top officials have to start saying in an agency’s defense “no, no, no, that’s a totally legitimate law enforcement agency,” they have already lost and it is, in fact, no longer a legitimate law enforcement agency.

This is why Minnesotans are begging folks outside the state to keep talking about us. Please don’t let the world forget we are still in danger.

Don’t look away from MN. ICE is still wreaking havoc across the state - changing their tactics to deceive Minnesotans - pretending to be construction workers or folks delivering groceries. Still over 2,000 ICE agents in the state. They’re not going anywhere, your anger and outrage shouldn’t either.

BAAAAAAABE BABE BABE BABE WAKE UP THEY’RE RECREATING THE 2008 FINANCIAL CRISIS FROM FIRST PRINCIPLES

Santa was WHITE Football is OURS Skittles are CURRENCY Nermal was CUTER than GARFIELD Plants are NOT ALIVE Vests should be worn BACKWARDS Lakes are IMAGINARY Jumping is BAD Shoes are for HANDS

Another classic post-Homan day where around school dismissal time we get a flurry of ICE vehicles all across our neighborhoods. Today one vehicle led an observer to their own home and pointed at it. This is a sick game to them, but we won’t be intimidated and we won’t stop until DHS is abolished.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

The "young intern" at the White House who has been retweeting juvenile, racist, and otherwise embarrassing material from Donald Trump's account for at least 11 years was born on June 14, 1946 at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, New York, NY. He sometimes goes by the name John Barron.

I'm sorry the guy changing the rules on the fly is named what

Mentioned this on a thread earlier but hearing what came out of the caucuses today... if you don't want Amy to be the next governor, convince someone else to jump in any time before the state convention at the end of May. They will run away with it. #erinmurphy #erinmayequade #DFLGov

"The records that are being made by observers....that record is now filtering into the public and is changing public opinion. And I think that's vital." @whstancil.bsky.social talks Minneapolis resistance with @timmiller.bsky.social on today's Bulwark Podcast:

From FB regarding Pizza Luce in Minnesota. I like it when I can do something to help people displaced by ICE and then after I do that thing I get to eat a pizza.

Defund ICE. Disable the grift. Disempower the Epstein class. Defy authoritarianism. Discredit Trumpism. Deconstruct MAGA. Defeat the GOP. Thank you for your attention to these matters.
