The Price is Right airs at 10 am in Minnesota! Why are we hanging a story about violent state oppression on the peg of day drinkers in rural MN? Sure the big wheel isn't spun until later but I think 11 am is still too early to start drinking "most days."

NYTimes has truly outdone itself with this latest in its "ask white guys in diner" genre. Thank goodness we get a perspective on what's happening in Minneapolis from people in **Nisswa** who probably mean Brainerd when they say they "prefer not to go the city anymore"

When you see the mayhem in the streets of Minneapolis it's hard to believe that this is all about Trump and Stephen Miller's thirst for vengeance a psychologically twisted desire to brutalize immmigrants, people of color and political foes. The city was peaceful. They purposefully incited this..

This good-natured, 34-year-old, Muslim, immigrant man—who the Times bemoaned was too young and radical to “get anything done”—has accomplished more good governance in a *week* on the job than most liberal politicians accomplish in their whole careers. With a smile & a joyful heart. A blessing.

i think powell's response here is a demonstration of the folly of the idea that democratic accountability requires presidential control. what if the president is not acting in the public interest? you want independent agencies to be able to push back and pursue their *congressional mandate*

I just found out last night that the $50k enrollment bonus only pays out after 5 years of service, and reader, the laugh I let out when I read that woke the dog from across the house. These absolute fucking grapes aren't seeing a dime of that money. No way they can ride out 5 years of this job.

Separate from the obvious misogyny of the last few days, it’s been striking to watch the right wing media apparatus really confront the role of normie middle-aged women as a leading and increasingly radical force of opposition to trump

Oh I see NOW we feature the irreplaceable talent that runs government. After they'd been fired (and no one cared) because no one ever thought to feature them and their important work.

The idea that real change can’t be controlled like that and comes from relentless hammering, hammering, hammering at every opportunity, until somehow through combination of fortune and sheer persistence you bend the arc of events at some unexpected moment, is inconceivable to our Honor Roll leaders.

Fascism acts as an autoimmune disease of liberals in, as Sartre noticed, its deliberate use of bad faith. Aggressively insisting on a falsehood means that you can only engage with them "under civil norms" by engaging with the falsehood. Then they wager you won't forcibly exclude them.

There are at least 100 Minneapolis residents for every federal agent in the city right now. Political leadership needs to organize them before it's too late. Stop telling people to remain calm and peaceful and give them a useful mission.
