John Wall recently joined Nextdoor, and his first comment is support for the candidate, Becka Thompson, who has made racist campaign remarks about a city councilmember, apologized for that, then made racist remarks about a different city councilmember of color.

Just 2 gun rights advocates sitting behind a wall of bulletproof glass while enjoying a memorial for a gun rights advocate who got murdered by a gun.

So, his funeral was televised today? I’ve stayed out of that loop, I guess. I’ve had a hard time comprehending his body was flown on Air Force 2. This was a civilian podcaster who didn’t believe certain humans should have equal rights. Hate personified. As a mortician and human, I’m flabbergasted.

This is the scene in which anglosphere media remain immersed so that they may know the mind of the median voter. Oops! All Plato's Cave.

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

USA has never been a "Christian form of government". Constitution prohibits the establishment of a state religion and forbids religious tests for public office to protect freedom of conscience, prevent religious conflict, and ensure that government treats people equally. Fact check me on this.

What was Kool-Aid Man drinking when he came up with Sharkleberry Fin?

The Audiobook is very very good! For those of us that have difficulties finding time to read a book proper.

this thread is a nice reminder that hanania is an extremely poor thinker who benefits from the fact that many commentators are innumerate and can be easily misled with simple data manipulation

The same policy that’s been in effect next door in Ramsey County since 2021. That’s Valerie Castile, Philando’s mother, standing to Mary Moriarty’s left. (No paywall.)

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."

We knew this moment was coming. Ward 12 candidate Becka Thompson claiming residence in a neighborhood outside her current park district means she's either lying or must resign her park board seat.

Another way to expand the tent is to barnstorm the country and sway voters, like Bernie and AOC have been doing (and Kirk did on the right).

Take these touch controls away from my car and replace with buttons like 20 years ago. Play my iPhone through a Bluetooth tape deck.

Spending thousands of dollars to close down a public right of way that was recently built for millions, and improved access between a major bike route and a transit hub. What a failure.

Minneapolis deserves a mayor who will meet our climate and environmental crises with the urgency they require. That’s why I’m so thrilled to be endorsed by @sierraclubmn.bsky.social ! Together, we can build a city that reflects the care that our neighbors have for each other and the Earth.

Had to ride past these three solar lights after the rain to see how they were doing. If the city gave me a grant of like a grand I bet I could do the whole stretch from W River to Minnehaha.

This isn't even a slight exaggeration. He is actively working on destroying the US's entire vaccine infrastructure. The HepB vote will be tomorrow, where they will get rid of the birth dose and recommend it at 30 days, dooming a bunch of infants to chronic infection ft. cirrhosis, cancer, and death.

fiery speech from dewayne davis addressing dinner du nord, looking at photos of who was at the table and not recognizing the mayor’s friends from when he goes to the food shelf, contrasted with the encampments and shootings, who is being invited to the table? dewayne the pastor in full effect 🔥

If the fascists categorize antifa as a domestic terrorist organization, anyone and everyone will be designated as antifa. it’s a catch all term that means nothing and has no real backing structure. Anyone they claim will be antifa and subject to the terror of fascist violence.

Another way of thinking about it: we invested money in this new pathway as part of the I-35W reconstruction/Lake St transit station. It's completely squandered now. Was the ongoing maintenance cost not high enough? What's the problem? Why is this resource we paid for lost to us?

How much of the public space in Minneapolis will be fenced off by 2028 if Frey is reelected?

The city contributed 4.6 million dollars to this project, and now it's just fenced off ...

If Mayor Frey's claim that there were only 27 people in Minneapolis experiencing homelessness were true, it would mean more than half of the unhoused population had been wounded or killed in shootings in the last 2 weeks.

Do you know what the NYTimes said after Malcolm was assassinated... "The world he saw through those horn-rimmed glasses of his was distorted and dark. But he made it darker still with his exaltation of fanaticism. Yesterday someone came out of that darkness that he spawned, and killed him."

We're about to experience the first modern recession caused substantially, and perhaps primarily, by racism.

I hope I have given fidelity, and that everyone viscerally understands: You will have to come through me.

“The bishop advised Catholics considering joining ICE that ‘you can never attempt to turn off your conscience.’”

u guys seemed pretty sure just a little while ago tbh

Interestingly enough they are shutting down W River Parkway for Pickleball! If we're talking about pedestrianizing streets, why in earth would we not talk about a street that absolutely doesn't need cars on it and connects to super popular tourist destinations? (Yeah I know)

This is a firing offense. Bill Pulte must go.

My dad first signed up for Twitter to follow live sports and he’s a freak about U of I. One day he said to me “Twitter is abuzz about Illini golf,” and I was like dude you only follow Illini sports accounts. And that’s how every reporter feels Charlie Kirk was the most important person in the world.

So do I and I have to tell you the danger was always there. Black student groups spent the last two years shifting back to online events because of anti DEI rhetoric.

We can't say for sure what killed Charlie Kirk until we find out what drugs were in his system.

A stunning lawsuit from @robin4mpls.bsky.social & @michaelforparks.bsky.social provides evidence that John and Patricia Wall conspired with conservative PACs to keep progressive candidates from talking to residents in their buildings. This is a violation of state law by the owners of Malcolm Yards.

On a Zoom call, the Walls asked for advice about how to keep Council Member Wonsley out of their buildings. Former Frey campaign manager Joe Radinovich advised them on ways to break the law discreetly. buff.ly/v4xJw0Z

This lawsuit highlights the stakes of this election. The wealthiest people in the city don't think the law applies to them. They will even break the law to prevent elected officials and progressive candidates from talking to working people about how we can build a city that meets everyone’s needs.

doubt it convinces anyone but i like the pro-solar framing that it's better at converting energy than corn. fuck corn, we're kicking corn's ass now

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment. Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

At the Saints game and they are advertising anti-Summit-bike-lane, pro-car messages on the jumbotron. Very disappointed, and t was all brought to you by Busch Light, because nothing goes together better than crushing beers and driving

charlie kirk was a rabid partisan fascist who did everything he could to literally terrorize Democrats and everyone who disagreed with him. his death is horrible and ugly, but that does not make him a national hero.

His work was calling for lynching of trans people. Political violence is wrong no matter what and he constantly called for it.

I was just fired from my firm for filing this case lol

Utah was the first state to allow open carry on campus. A would-be assailant could walk right onto campus armed as they please and nobody could’ve done a thing about it.
