Frey supporters: what does he bring to the table that you wanted more of? Genuinely want to know.

Welp, I stand by this. Nobody likes this man; nobody admires him; some (rich) (Republican) people (many of whom don't even live in Minneapolis) just know they can use him. He's gonna stew in his own mediocrity for four more years while real leaders do real leading.

Minneapolis' mayoral race proves you can never underestimate the bigotry and xenophobia of white christian America.

Jacob Frey donor embezzled hundreds of thousands of dollars. Is Frey going to return his contributions?

There was never any real constituency for small government conservatism

We’re on our way to electing a new mayor! How do we do it? Ranked choice voting! Minneapolis has 3 fantastic candidates for mayor in @omarfatehmn.com, @dewayneforminneapolis.com & @jazzformayor.bsky.social. If their upward trend continues, we can ensure a new mayor by ranking all 3.

Why the MF am I on this email list?

what if it was saturday night instead of sunday night?? oh how delightful that would be!!!!

-Clips of cherry-picked supporters saying "We. Are Resilient..." - Images that allude to the Mpls Uprising (when he didnt do anything constructive or helpful) - Remember that time when constituents ask him to make good on his promises? #survivor! - Ends w the phrase "...Minneapolis Resilient." ✊️🙂‍↕️

Literally don't need to do that bc i can imagine it in perfect detail just from the title

Another dreadful food item Stella would make.

I recently got laid off with no notice. Our household was already living paycheck to paycheck, and nobody knows when I'll get hired again. Please help three trans girls stay homed if you can!! If you can, please boost this -- I appreciate any help. Thank you for reading. paypal.me/SunArcana

I've been waiting for my copy to come in the mail for a bit now, but if you haven't bought Gretchen's book yet, now's definitely the time! Her past two horror novels, Manhunt and Cuckoo are visceral works or trans literature and if they're any indication Black Flame will be just as good.

woundwort ahh legs

Oh hell no Guys.... don't we deserve better? Hell yes we do WE DESERVE BETTER

the wolf girls (she/they) 🐺🐺🐺

i long for accountability....for this and a million other acts by people with power

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029: - $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion - $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million - $8 billion for hiring/retention - Billions more.

These are the kind of appropriations you make for a war, and it's going to be waged on us.

Once again, the @nytimes.com is obviously & demonstrably wrong.

It isn’t lost on me that the suspect in the assassination of one of the most prominent women in Minnesota politics had a target list with abortion providers and advocates. Misogyny is deadly. My heart is with the victims, their families, and everyone affected.

MNGOP chair is calling on everyone to “not politicize this.” What other fucking lens should we be using? Genuine question for the GOP.

Contact your electeds. Contact international governing or human rights organizations. Contact companies doing business in the U.S. Contact military leaders, judges, heads of media conglomerates. Ask for, beg for, plead for, demand change.

So what are lower-risk choices than marching/demonstrating? Make signs for others. Stand by with bail money. Be an emergency contact. Be on hand with a vehicle to get people physically out of whatever. Donate money or supplies to support those on the ground. Write letters to the editor.

It is ok to not want to be on the front lines. It is ok to want to make lower-risk choices. But it's not ok to not participate in changemaking if you oppose fascism. You are never safe in a fascist country. Never.

In a fascist country, you're always at risk of injury or death, and more so if you are doing anything opposing the regime. Everyone has to decide their own level of comfort when it comes to risk, but you need to understand that nobody is safe in a fascist country, least of all those who want change.

If you live in the U.S., you live in a fascist country. I'm sorry if that's hard to reconcile for you, but I urge you to accept it as quickly as you can if you want to change the regime. It's hard! It's scary! It's shocking and horrifying and all the other emotions! You're right! It is!

Also to call for law enforcement to stop being able to hide their identities.

Honestly really greatful for @bsky.app right now. I'm getting as accurate of information as we can get shortly after a tragedy in order to inform my actions, and I'm not getting stuck behind paywalls, ads or skimming past hundreds of bots or nazi posts

They want us afraid and unwilling to stand up to them. We must stand up tall and loud now

Whelp I’m going to pour a stiff drink and listen to some North African funk or something. This photo is going to be haunting me for a while. It’s fascism It’s here The republicans are at war against democracy and us all.

It is, uh, not great to find out that a ton of american politicians really crave having secret police.

Hey friends! I’m collecting evidence of MPD and the county collaborating with ICE and other federal agents. If you have photos or videos from today please reply!! If it’s a video you may get a DM from me asking to share the file. Thanks all!

"The law enforcement presence was clustered near a Mexican restaurant near Lake Street and Bloomington Avenue whose owner has previously been a high-profile critic of federal immigration enforcement actions." Oh, you don't say. www.startribune.com/ice-agents-s...

MNSure terminated my insurance and didn't tell me why or send me any notices I am now uninsured for the 5th time this year

Disturbing images from the scene have been circulating, some of which appear to show MPD engaging with federal agents, blocking streets, and doing crowd control to facilitate whatever federal operation was occurring. Mayor Frey stated the only role MPD had was “crowd control”.

Are they deputizing people on the spot? Brooklyn Park cop gets to be Sherriff for a day. HCSO as ATF with name badges that say "The Others"

Is the MPD going to look at persons impersonating ICE agents in the city of Minneapolis or are we just to accept that impersonating a law enforcement officer isn't a crime any more?

Image is missing alt-text, but the gist is, Hennepin County sheriff claims ICE was there to execute search warrants, and not to arrest immigrants WHY DID YOU NEED TACTICAL VEHICLES AND GEAR FOR A SEARCH WARRANT? A *search* warrant, not an arrest warrant! Also, stop shoving civilians, assholes

And I don't want to be a conspiracy freak, but if this is the case who's going to stop non-ICE agencies from making up bogus shit to use as a cover for immigration raids?

Get the fuck out of Minneapolis!

Worth remembering that every one of those agents made the conscious decision to be a part of this

so many acronyms one would think it was a krs verse

Please read Council Member Chavez’s post again. MPD assisted in closing down the street. Idk what else you want to call that but supporting. This is antithetical to, both, the stated positions of the Mayor and the Chief of Police.
