Culture warriors claim the scalp of Emily Suski, the would-be law school dean whose legal opinion on transgender athletes seems to have offended Arkansas officials.

Donald Trump and Kristi Noem are using armed, militarized agents to provoke Minnesotans. The Insurrection Act should not be used as an excuse to send armed troops into our streets.

People getting angry at this post seem to be reading Walz saying “What Donald Trump wants is violence in the streets” as a scolding about avoiding bad political optics rather than as a warning that Donald Trump wants violence in the streets

Like Musk’s purchase of Twitter, the disastrous fall in revenue and success will be far outweighed by their destroying a powerful media outlet that once held powerful people to account. The ROI is not only about profits.

On Fox 9 just now they interviewed a woman at the scene in Minneapolis. She says she’s not an activist but felt a call to action like she hasn’t felt since 9/11. She says she was raised to love America. She says she’s never felt scared of the government in her life, until now.

Ouroboros authoritarianism. Provoke fear and resistance, then use the resistance you provoke as a pretext to expand the scope and severity of your tactics.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

The Supreme Court only cleared the way for Kavanaugh Stops four months ago and ICE now openly engages in violent racial profiling, snatching anyone who looks non-white and treating them as presumptively guilty of a crime. Remarkable how quickly our liberties can be crushed when courts go along.

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.
