Today on the Wedge LIVE podcast: What is the phone number for the Minneapolis pedicab regulatory authority? My pedicab driver was too sassy and sarcastic. It made me uncomfortable.

Horrible day. ICE is preparing a deportation flight to Laos so some of my former, current, and were-to-be clients are being brought to the Whipple Building and shipped off to Louisiana for final removal. Lots of calls from them, their families, and friends. So much pain visited on our community

45 detainees loaded onto today's ICE Air flight in Minneapolis, the highest single day total since February 4. Stats: ottergoose.net/ice-flights-msp/data Minnesota 50501 volunteers continue to monitor, report, advocate & demand accountability; please help support our work: mn50501.org/donate

I’d like to see them bring this to the MN Stare Fair. I mean it.

🧡 BOOST! Help these cats stay together. 🧡

Behind the hydrangea and echinacea, Tom, a handsome grey and white tabby, crouches near the tiny hole under the fence where varmints might come in.

Fascism is harder to pull off when everyone is running around with little video cameras in their pockets, and can easily share the footage of bad deeds with the world. newrepublic.com/post/212915/...

A friend of mine found these three kittens behind a Bay Area gas station. They are tame, vaccinated, and incredibly affectionate. Unfortunately, she's unable to keep them and I'm trying to find them a home. They are at risk of going to a shelter. Bay Area people, are you open to adopting?

Five facts that you should know about the current Cyclospora outbreak.

Must have.

This post is a month old but worth posting up to say: we in SD62 will be doing sister district knocks this summer and into the fall, and Rep Tabke's district is one we will be targeting! You do not have to live in SD62 to participate, so watch this space for links to sign up!

Went w/ my 11 year old godson to MIA today to see Year of the Horse exhibition, which we both loved. As we exited we saw the image of Judith w/the head of Holofernes & I had a great time telling him the story!! (as for being in H’s tent, i just said J made him think she liked him & got him drunk.)

Thanks for stepping up Cedrick.

Hello Minneapolis !

Justice for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. Feds killed him and claim he was trying to hit one of them with his vehicle. www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/7/...

I endorse this message. Cedrick Frazier for Hennepin County Attorney.

One of my prettiest loaves yet.

Henry, a handsome grey tabby with a white muzzle, chest, & socks, stares at me. His piercing hazel eyes convey this message: I will not forgive you for “rescuing the poor little baby bunny” as your maudlin expression goes. This atrocious confiscation of my rightful spoils will not be forgotten.

Mamdani: "As we mark 250 years ... we see the wealthiest country -- one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more ... we see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans"

Minnesotans, have you seen a *ton* of attack ads lately? Outside groups are using every legal loophole in the book to hide who’s funding a wave of attack ads against me. But whoever is paying for them thinks they can buy this Senate seat. They're wrong.

Democratic socialists are still partying in New York City… 🎉 Wait — *checks notes* — sorry this is Colorado. Apologies! We got confused since we were told this only happens in NYC 😬 @melatkirosco.bsky.social www.instagram.com/reel/DaO9NqR...

In honor of ICE reaching 2,000 287(g) agreements this week, I've made some updates (improvements, hopefully!) to the program report + landing page/resource hub. www.tituslegaldesign.com/immigration-...

One thing IS inevitable: the Strib will always be up to this bs. Thanks Lynnell for calling this out.

Hello Minnesota!

My favorite kaiju. 🖤🩵🧡🩵🖤

Here I am, before the peaceful transfer of power, with the wonderful Susan Lynx, the very first grand marshal of the WedgeLive Cat Tour! I am wearing a pajama top with pictures of our cats faces. Thanks mom. @wedge.live, @lynxwyze.bsky.social

OMG, amazing. You rock, @lynxwyze.bsky.social.

ICE agent Jonathan Ross killed Renee Good and should be indicted. And prosecuted. And if found guilty, imprisoned. Along with every other ICE agent who committed crimes against my neighbors.

chet wedgely with the wedge live cat tour 2025’s grand marshal susan lynx, who still holds the title until she hands the sash over to the new grand marshal for 2026. “i believe in a peaceful transfer of power,” she says @wedge.live @lynxwyze.bsky.social

Preparing to pass on the sash to the 2026 Grand Marshal of the WedgeLive Cat Tour!

The @wedge.live cat tour map for tonight, June 24, has dropped. Instructions sent to attendees include not clapping or cheering for the cats as the cats do not enjoy the noise. The tour starts at 6 p.m. John (Chet Wedgely) is a prompt person so don't dilly dally getting there and avoid driving.

If you plan to attend today's Wedge LIVE Cat Tour, please read these final pre-tour instructions. You are a cat tourist. Respect the culture and heritage of the Wedge at all times.

We are tired of doing all the work and then being told that our vote is a lock, we have no choice, and so you have to go run around chasing MAGA votes. We aren't the ones that hate Democratic volunteers. YOU DO.

Route map for tomorrow's cat tour.

27 years today.

Happy Father's Day 🖤

Hello Minneapolis and Minnesota!

I have a feeling no one is editing Rainville’s summer intern Juliana’s messages.

A hard won victory is mine! For the first time ever, I beat my 11-year-old godson at Star Wars trivia!
