Minneapolis as a verb! 👇🏼 KONDABOLU: “You get burnt out from all the talk and all the things that…whether it's safety pins or some other thing to show, like, I'm on your team. Like, after a while, it's like, I don't need that. I want you to Minneapolis this s***.” www.npr.org/2026/03/28/n...

It’s April 1st, which Minnesota bikers know means Day 1 of 30 Days of Biking. I took a short neighborhood ride to stretch my legs after a long car trip, and ahead of the snow forecast…..

Let’s go! Did you start following me after my speech at No Kings last weekend? Here’s the work- donate some money to keep Minnesotans housed!

Grateful that the Hennepin County Attorney is bringing charges in this case.

The same day Renee Good was murdered, Bovino and his thugs showed up at a neighborhood high school during dismissal, and violently arrested a staff member on school property. I’m so glad Quentin is ready to tell his story.

Do you love to ride bikes in the spring in Minnesota? Here’s a chance for a group ride to benefit rent funds!

It was an incredible honor to represent tens of thousands of rapid responders across Minnesota who have spent the last 118 days standing up for our neighbors. Here’s my speech from yesterday at No Kings St. Paul. 1/

we cannot allow evictions to be yet another reason more of our neighbors are placed in even further harm. Council Members, do the right thing and stand in solidarity with us." 13/13 🧵

Snowblower guy (non-gendered) in my house has done two passes, cleared the sidewalks on the block, teamed up with a neighbor to catch and return a loose dog to her people, and cleared our elderly neighbor’s driveway. Recommendation: clear those plow lines before they turn to icy concrete!

Brought my family, and my 2nd grader declared this “the best party ever!” I’m so excited to volunteer and vote for @christin-with-mpls.bsky.social (and I already donated to her campaign!)

Sunday! Come and raise money for rent relief!

NEW “We’re celebrating a tradition that is at its core about resisting occupation and maintaining community in the face of horrors. You can’t keep politics out of Irish music. No one should try, for two reasons. First, it’s ahistorical. Second, Minnesotans are ready for a big anti-fascist party.”

Walked out of City Hall and directly into this situation today, and promptly had two guns pointed at me.

They hate us so much but we love each other more

Watch and listen as my friends Patty and Brandon share their experience being abducted by ICE m.youtube.com/watch?si=FKo...

There are no short cuts. I'm sorry. There is only long term, consistent, and disciplined organizing.

Holding the incredible tension of this time - Jason's inauguration for his current city council term was yesterday. AND his beloved uncle was kidnapped yesterday. Let's help bring him home.

You've probably been following the story about fraud in MN. I wrote about the people who provide services who are being driven into bankruptcy, thanks to the Walz' administration decision to hire Optum AI to screen all payments. It's a disaster.

Every year I cast on a knitting project on January 1. Here’s 2026.

My less online spouse and the kiddo did snowblower guy duty today, suited up for the wind.

I found a healthy one: give a few $$ to mutual aid folks.

Our extended family sings Joy to the World to start Christmas Eve dinner. Us: 🎶Let earth receive her king🎶 Kiddo (age 8): “Didn’t we fight a whole war to not have kings in this country?? No Kings!” 2025 is a mood.

This is your chance to do a quick ICE WATCH training! Dec 24, 1pm – 2pm, on Zoom. Learn how to document, coordinate and monitor ICE activity, and how to connect with others doing ICE WATCH in your community. DO IT!!!

Contact your reps. Talk to your neighbors. If you're out there keeping other neighbors safe, you can show up for these ones, too. Mpls 💗

The ACLU of Minnesota and several law firms filed the suit Wednesday on behalf of six Minnesotans who say they’ve been detained or threatened by federal agents while lawfully observing ICE operations, including Susan Tincher of Minneapolis who was detained when she confronted ICE agents.

This is a great example of how Hennepin County as an institution is governed by the Hennepin County Board but the Sheriff is independently elected and HCSO doesn’t report to the County Board in any meaningful way.

Last week City Council unanimously strengthened our Separation Ordinance. Yesterday, MPD helped ICE by doing crowd control while they kidnapped neighbors. Mayor Frey continues to let MPD use a loophole to work with ICE and only he can stop what residents witnessed yesterday. buff.ly/gllRzKu

This tracks with my experience. DHS made up stories like this in Chicago, too. Every story ICE told about being attacked by community members was debunked in court. To assume anything they say is even potentially credible is irresponsible and out of touch with reality.

It's getting mega cold this weekend, can you hit the @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social Venmo to help keep folks warm? Put a 🌴 in the Venmo comment so we know

This whole thread is essential reading.

Friends, we have some positive news tonight out of the Constitution, Bylaws, and Rules Committee re: the DFL Feminist Caucus. The TL;DR of it is the entire feminist caucus leadership has to either undergo extensive training, or resign within 10 days.

ICE was in Cedar Riverside today. Amazing community turnout, be mindful of the layer of pepper spray in the snow all over the neighborhood

This is the way, neighbors!

It’s -6 before windchill and one of the school buses for kiddo’s school is running an hour behind this morning. Just brutal.

He said that with his whole self. We need to believe the monsters when they say they are monsters.

Given the events of the last 36 hours, we’re rolling this out even faster. Please sign up to be a hub or help print whistles!

It's wild, but whistles that cost less than a dollar have been an effective tool in Chicago and other places for alerting people to the presence of ICE/Nazis. Want to help distribute, purchase or 3-D print whistles in Minneapolis? Here's the info you need!

This fight has never been about undocumented people. Take a look at how they are treating American citizens.

This is an important thread for parents and caregivers. Your child should not be with you when protesting ICE. If you have your kid with you and you spot ICE, alert the hotline (Monarca in the Twin Cities). That's why we have rapid responders.

Shelter Connect report from this afternoon: ZERO shelter beds in Hennepin County tonight, and zero beds for men in Ramsey County. And this is just the first week of sustained cold weather this winter.

As we continue to learn more about the incident, we ask that you are on alert, keep the community safe, and alert neighbors about immigration enforcement you witness. No human beings should ever be treated like this. Children, especially, should never have to experience this. 2/

This is evil.

Things I discovered this morning: Kiddo, age almost 8, knows he is not supposed to boil water on the gas stove without supervision. He did not apply the same logic to making scrambled eggs, aka frying eggs in oil. (He was successful, but it was quite a surprise at 5 am!)

If you live in Minneapolis and your street sign is blue, you live on a snow emergency route and you should not park on it tonight

Hitler was bad. An essay that, you know, I didn’t think I’d need to write.

Delighted to report that my less online spouse is cheerfully embracing his identity as the snowblower guy (non-gendered) for our block. So far today he’s done all the neighbor’s sidewalks and our less mobile neighbor’s driveways, and I think he’s getting ready for round 3.

I love transit all the time, but the first storm of the season it's magical to not have to worry about all the car drivers re-learning how to drive in snow!

We have to use every tool available to us - including our dollars. This Black Friday and weekend @blackvotersmatterfund.org asks you to join “We Ain’t Buyin’ It!” to send a message to Trump’s corporate enablers. Learn more about the companies targeted in this campaign here: weaintbuyingit.com
