US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better." Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better. Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand. We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

The problem with democrats is that they believe the laws are like the law of gravity and not something that can simply be ignored by these jackasses

....i didn't realize this sort of thing was going on..... i recommend *not* wearing a titanium ring with a lithium battery in it ?? and if it starts to swell while you're wearing it to absolutely not get on a plane ???

I have made yesterday's important phone call and today's important phone call #pleaseClap

I hope Unrivaled gets a better merch thing going

Republicans are shutting down the government because they don’t want to fix the health care crisis they created. They’re holding the entire government hostage so they can raise health care premiums by 75% for 20 million Americans and throw millions off their health care. NO.

@democrats.org @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social Exactly. Zero leadership. Do you really think that in a coup you have normal power? Of course not. This time calls for extraordinary leadership and fast acting strategy to literally defend the Constitution.

According to Phee, Cathy said: “Caitlin should be grateful she makes $16 million off the court because without the platform that the WNBA gives her, she wouldn’t be making anything.” #wnba

I haven’t heard of any player standing on business like Phee. Today’s statement aside - launching a whole-ass league to give the players more bargaining power? That’s true GOAT behavior.

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

Hegseth: "A few months ago I was at the White House when President Trump announced his liberation day for America's trade policy. It was a landmark day. Well, today is another liberation day. The liberation of America's warriors ... you kill people and break things for a living."

On National Day of Remembrance for Boarding School Survivors, we honor those children and reaffirm our commitment to strengthen Tribal sovereignty and deepen our respect for our trust and treaty obligations to Tribal Nations.

Frey lies with alacrity. You pay the price.

The DFL endorsement is dead to me

why would the MN GOP CD5 deputy chair be at an event for a DFL endorsed candidate? this is mitch rossow pictured in the video shared from elizabeth shaffer’s field kickoff today

Sadly it’s not just Donald Trump who does this. Mayor Frey has repeatedly disregarded budget allocations made by the Minneapolis City Council.

I know there's a lot going on but this is a huge deal: Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin will stop providing abortions next week in an apparent bid to keep accepting Medicaid. The GOP budget law "defunds" PP affiliates that offer abortion care after October 1 We broke the story on @autonomynews.co

it’s a historic day for my union — Minneapolis Federation of Educators Local 59 — we have our very first mayoral endorsements & we have ranked the candidates! Rank # 1: @omarfatehmn.com Rank #2: @dewayneforminneapolis.com Rank #3: Jazz Hampton

Hey this is an ADA violation and a destruction of pathways that were built literally a couple years ago. What the fuck are we doing.

I am proud to be born a Muslim. I am proud to be born in Somalia. I am proud to have become an American. None of you can change that no matter how much you rage tweet. Drink some water and touch grass.

It's especially gross that Walz is out here using Stand Up, Fight Back as a campaign slogan, given that he's the guy who deployed the national guard to put down the uprising when people were quite literally standing up and fighting back.

Another Franken text for Flanagan after the last time I sent stop? Ugh

Join us at Solcana for an interactive training on Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV), Minneapolis’s method of choosing local elected officials. Meet mayoral candidates @omarfatehmn.com, @dewayneforminneapolis.com & @jazzformayor.bsky.social! Saturday, 9/20 – 1:30-3pm. RSVP: www.mobilize.us/aurinchowdhu...

Could I just brag about my colleagues for a little bit? In July, librarians at at the University of Minnesota launched Save Our Signs, an effort to preserve interpretive signs at our national parks. So far, they have collected 8,070 images of signs (4 of them my own) from 319 sites!!!

our friend jason garcia is still in the hospital recovering and needs our support with medical bills and other needs during their recovery. jason does so much for the community. this is our chance to give back to them. please share - www.gofundme.com/f/support-ja...

Inside you are two wolves

Remember when we'd promise to post lewds to raise mutual aid for others? Turns out, we could have just asked. Thanks y'all.

Everyone, especially Strong Boy Mayors, will tell you that people are "offered services." If those services are ever adequate & dignified I promise those people are already on the 2-year waitlists and many have temporarily lost their spots because when a space became available they were unfindable.

Why is reality so... aaaaaaaa

I'm in for $50. Match me, y'all

flakne says "my client is an unsophisticated individual" and could not find the correct language unsophisticated? john wall is a prominent developer and landlord with tons of resources

Roof Depot is appraised at $3.76 M. EPNI is ready to pay $10.2M today. Frey still wants $15.9M and won’t even take meetings to talk about it. Y’all wanna talk about scandals in this mayoral race? This is the big one imo Don’t Rank Frey

If you’re a local reporter and want some inside baseball on what Minneapolis is saying to East Lake businesses and community (including the church nearby) about their “outreach” in the Lake and 28th encampment, I have sources for you.

Japan has a wrestling camp for kids where at the end they have a show match in front of their parents to show off what they learned. Thought you'd enjoy this.

Twin cities, what are some of the radical ways a work group could volunteer labor around food or housing?

So grateful to CM Jason Chavez for being there this morning to help pressure City departments to come out and offer services, and to CM Aurin Chowdhury for coming out today to help connect people with places to shower and spend the night inside, and be in AC and out of the sun today.

Latest needs: female clothes (size S-L), men’s pants and underwear (size M-XL), and electrolytes

“The response to this week's mass shooting at an encampment highlights the lack of empathy, imagination and leadership that mark Frey's tenure. His administration seems to only know how to pull two levers: eviction and fencing.” Shoutout to @beukema.bsky.social for his letter in today’s Strib

Duck Duck Coffee will be doing a directed donation drive today - please bring t shirts, underwear, ibuprofen/acetaminophen, shorts, drinks, and especially SHOES during business hours today!

< screaming as loud as i possibly the fuck can into the unyielding void > I DON'T EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER WANT TO TIE MY PASSWORD MANAGER OR ANYTHING THE FUCK ELSE TO A MOTHERFUCKING AI BROWSER YOU ABSOLUTE CONGSHUNTS

So many of the half-baked AI implementations are happening in professional arenas that have been hollowed out by extraction and divestment. No journalist needs a writing aid unless they’re being paid too little to write too much, no teacher needs a commenting tool unless they’re overextended.

Wow no way, another centrist group whose tenets are [checks notes] polite fascism?

Transit is a great way to get around, saving you money on gas and parking. Skip the drive Sept. 17 and give the bus or train a try with Transit to Work Day. And stop by our celebration at the Commons Park for free snacks, transit tours and more 4-6 p.m. Sept. 17.

If the portrayal of trans folks becomes illegal in another state, you can bet I'm sending trans thirst traps to the phones of those who made it happen

#transitToWorkDay I usually go in on Wednesdays, and this bus goes from my block to a block away from the West Bank campus
