Spraypainted threats. Midnight arson. Ransacked rooms. Gunshots & pipe bombs. Heartbroken, angry, afraid: Dar Al Farooq, Temple Israel, Annunciation, to name a few. All, connected. All, sacred human hearts seeking connection. Haters hurt us all. We scrub & rebuild & go on. 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️

Every word spoken by Urvasha Vaid in 1993 is as true and prophetic today. Rest in power. #NoKings #NoH8 www.c-span.org/clip/public-...

Might someone say so? Someone just did....

I have two friends who ran the half marathon and raved about how pleasant it was. Live bands all along the way, people cheering them on :-) I can't believe the people buying the "war ravaged" story.

Hold your horses! What is this? Neuropsychology Awareness Day? Yes! The National Academy of Neuropsychology organised it for Oct 6th! If you work in health care, or have a neuropsychologist working in your company, reach out to them! See thread 🧵 below 👇 to learn more about Neuropsychology! 🧠

HURRAH for health care providers speaking out to resist the degradation of science and public health. #lfg Minnesota has @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social (thank goodness) but #LFG every intelligent person in #mnleg. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Signs from today’s Don’t Look Away Rally at the Minnesota capitol, where @momsdemand.bsky.social and @studentsdemand.bsky.social volunteers and survivors urged their lawmakers to call a special session to ban assault weapons.

🚨BIG NEWS:🚨 Minnesota Democrats just unveiled our proposal for a possible special session. Our plan would: ✅Ban assault weapons ✅Ban high-capacity magazines ✅Ban binary triggers ✅Implement 'safe storage' rules ✅Ban untraceable 'ghost guns' ✅Strengthen MN's red flag law

From @momsdemand.bsky.social "If you reside in Minnesota, text MN to 644-33 to tell key lawmakers to hold a special session to ban assault weapons!"

TEXT MN to 644-33 to demand action: Make the gun lobby STOP killing our kids & our friends. #Enough #ItsTheGuns #DontShoot #Annunciation #mnleg @indivisiblemnleg.bsky.social @indivistwincities.bsky.social @faithinmn.org @womensmarchmn.bsky.social @marchforourlives.bsky.social

Despite the fact that 60 percent of Minnesota voters believe the legislature should take immediate action to ban assault weapons, Republicans in the Minnesota House are refusing to allow a special session proposed by Democrats and Governor Walz to proceed. @governorwalz.mn.gov

"This President (Trump) has defunded the police." #StopICE #DefundICE #ICEout

One of the lessons I discuss in "On Tyranny": Listen for dangerous words.

✈️❤️‍🔥AFA supports Immigrant Rights in a powerful resolution (April 5, 2025) THANK YOU to flight attendants union @afacwa.org for this excellence! EVERY union, program, business, congregation, etc., valuing decency & human dignity should affirm such a resolution! www.afacwa.org/resolution_1...

The Senate DFL has been working to find compromises to prevent gun violence and protect our communities. We need Republicans to come to the table. #specialsession #gunviolenceprevention #mnleg

Well #mnleg GOP? Will you step up and do what Minnesotans are demanding?

DFLers in the Legislature today released a special session proposal including specific action on guns and bipartisan proposals on school safety, additional mental health resources, and new funding for law enforcement. The proposal can be found here: content.govdelivery.com/attachments/... #mnleg

What's the shutdown for? Why can't Dems just comply? Because: Dems don't want you to die. We got an affordable healthcare system 10 years ago but Republicans want to gut it so big bosses can make more profit. #ThatsNotFair

YES!!!!! 👏 this one ☝️ is excellent happy news!!!! #mnleg some people talk to talk Some people walk the walk Some people do the work!!! Mike does the work. Very very pleased to contemplate Mike Freiberg coming in as a #Minnesota Senator in November 2026.

ICYMI - this is the follow up press conference from the #mnleg #Minnesota #gun violence working Group I would take every single one of everybody's effing guns away, they make all of us less safe, but these folks are smarter than me. Holding them accountable as such. youtu.be/XYQhtElLEWI

Ridiculous. Republicans say more student mental health support is key to reducing school shootings, yet refuse to fund programs doing just that. Make it make sense. #mnleg #edmnvotes

ICYMI: the #Minnesota Senate #gun violence prevention group hearings from last week. #mnleg www.youtube.com/live/ANswPpL...

I f**king HATE guns. I have treated multiple children for gunshot brain injuries. I had two former patients gunned down in the streets. My 18-year-old nephew committed suicide by gunshot to the head. And I know 3 people who've done time for teen gun crimes that'll take a lifetime to amend. #mnleg

#mnleg House GOP: We take school safety seriously! Also GOP: We want certified quacks to be able to psychologically torture kids until they think they aren’t gay anymore.

I just urged Governor Walz and my MN lawmakers to hold a special session and pass a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Join me: bit.ly/47mBCCa #MNLeg @momsdemand

So, which is it? Do Republicans want more funding for school-based mental health programs or not? Because you can't say one thing and do another here, guys. 🤦 #mnleg #edmnvotes

Maybe it’s just too damn easy for people who want to hurt others to get guns? #mnleg

Gun violence is gun violence. It is tragic and preventable no matter who the victim. Our deepest sympathies to the family of Charlie Kirk and others injured and killed by gun violence today. I join the urgent call for an #MNLeg Special Session to pass gun safety legislation.

#Minnesota Going into this special session to combat gun violence, i got this form from my state senator to share my personal experience with gun violence. Well, I don't have any, but if you do or know someone who does, maybe you want to let #MNLeg know about it docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

📣 MN Senate hearing on ghost guns, assault weapons, ERPOs + more 📍 Mon Sept 15, 9AM | 1200 MN Senate Building 🧡❤️ Wear orange or red to show support Show up. Speak up. Be counted. Details ➡️ www.leg.mn.gov/cal?type=sin... #mnleg #EndGunViolence #WearOrange #PublicHearing

Here's a summary of the gun violence prevention laws that passed recently. It also explains why #mnleg was not able to pass an assault weapons ban. Passing any gun legislation during a special session will require BIPARTISAN support. #GunReform minnesotareformer.com/2025/09/05/w...

If you already know me, you will know this "ask" for a colleague, who cannot post for herself, is uncharacteristic, urgent, needed, and legit. Thanks. (And yes, I do bring snark about unverifiable GoFundMe's, so please beware of scams.) gofund.me/f41e7cf57

Congratulations!!! to SDS, WAMM, and others who worked hard for this victory!!! Gotta add this WIN to the excellent positivity from @ariellaelm.bsky.social

Paging @governorwalz.mn.gov

You can help slow down ICE’s terror. Talk to local businesses about putting up signage to protect employees from ICE raids and show solidarity with immigrant communities: act.indivisible.org/signup/signs...

Bad judgment, inhumanity, AND poor taste seem to coincide, don't they? #ICEout #NoH8

SCOOP: On Wednesday, a group of six Democratic members of Congress, led by Rep. Lateefah Simon (D-Calif.), raised concerns that the federal government is “failing to protect federal contractor workers with disabilities” in a letter sent to Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer.

just a reminder, Minneapolis, no matter what anybody says, you have choices... Rank the good!

glory hallelujah. Every once in a while justice is done. Now, may prevail.

First Bernie Sanders. Then the CDC directors. Now, more than 1,000 current and former HHS staffers are demanding RFK Jr. step down just in time for his testimony before the Senate Finance Committee on Thursday.

good job Shakopee!!

JD Vance welcoming committee today in Minneapolis.

@governorwalz.mn.gov has called for a special session to ban assault weapons in honor of the victims of the Annunciation Catholic School shooting. This is what leadership looks like. Now it’s time for lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to get it done.

it was only a matter of time... ICE now vows to BRIBE local police to detain & deport our good neighbors, coworkers, & health aides who pay taxes & haven't yet become official citizens in our glacially slow complex bureaucracy. #BanICE #NoKidsInCages #ImmigrantsAreEssential

"It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try and disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. The terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anyone living here,” Pritzker said... #Chicago

Good morning! 🧠🪱 will be testifying to the Senate tomorrow. Call your senators and make sure they've read this 👇 #cdcsaveslives #RFKJrKillsBabies @drdebhoury.bsky.social

Miami ICE... wouldn't it be ironic if this is the issue that finally flips Florida ?

There is still time to reverse the stupid decision Republicans made last year to take away healthcare for a lot of Minnesotans just because those taxpayers don't yet have citizenship papers. #mnleg #PeopleLikeFairness
