As the government raids “antifa groups” in Minneapolis with the SAME charges levied against myself and the rest of the Broadview Six, we need to be asking how they got this indictment. And as charges (hopefully) get dropped, we must remember the process is the punishment.

BREAKING NEWS: The @startribune.com conducts a "Minnesota Poll" by calling random numbers in rural areas to deliberately stoke the flag controversy, then posts the resulting rage bait to Twitter - but curiously doesn't post anything about it here on BlueSky.

Your regular reminder that there ISN’T a “war on cars.” Any objective observation in most cities however, would conclude that for 60+ years there’s been a war on every mobility choice EXCEPT cars. And that’s been bad for EVERYONE, including drivers. Poster via @urbantruth.bsky.social. #UrbanTruth

Damn that's crazy anyway content.govdelivery.com/accounts/MNM...

My eyes almost detached from my head

so offensive for elizabeth shaffer to say NOTHING about cardamom workers who lost jobs to QR codes & who will lose them when restaurant closes. shaffer only says she will "miss the moroccan cigars." workers make our restaurants great while shaffer only talks of listening to owners and management

The fact that nobody seriously believes there is an institution in this country that will check the president—that we’re all just sitting here hoping that he gets distracted and fails to follow through on his genocidal threats—is the most damning indictment of our political system I’ve seen yet.

AOC’s biggest problem if she runs for president is that the white men who control our media ecosystem will not so much put a finger on the scale to stop her as an entire hand it can be done (see: Zohran) but it’s going to be blatant and it’s going to be infuriating

One thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of recent Super Bowl halftime shows have been shot in closeup for the home audience — to where people in the stadium wouldn’t be able to see what was happening. I don’t think that was the norm 10-15 years ago.

Oh the nerve of a Spanish language halftime show in a place called San Jose California

That was so fucking good.

This is action EVERY city in the country can take. If your hotels cooperate with ICE, goodbye liquor revenue.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Some guy in the NFC West subreddit posted some pro ICE bullshit and now rams, 49ers, seahawks, and cardinals fans are getting along to tell this guy to fuck himself lol

Extremely funny that the champion of the revolutionary left/socialist boogeyman of Republicans everywhere is basically Leslie Knope.

Cult leaders tell you to believe them over what you can see with your own eyes, their followers don’t even want you to look

January 9th, downtown Minneapolis

Is it civil war yet?

Ward 7 residents. Time to scream at your new council representative

elizabeth shaffer called for “restraint and professionalism” from federal agents in her email today… but this is not their MO and this is not what they are here to do. they are here to terrorize us, and she saw it first hand in loring park the other day too. every video coming out shows that

Of course we ended up with Elizabeth "professionalism from ICE" Shaffer instead of Cashman 😭 God forbid the rich aren't catered to

ward 7 we will never see the light of heaven btw

This activation is about keeping our community safe, supported, and connected during a time of fear and disruption. Please share widely and show up if you are able. We protect each other.

Someone who claims to have witnessed the incident says - car was blocking ice - they told them to move - "something happened' - ICE shot into the car as it was driving away - passenger got out of the car covered away and said friend was dead There is video and I have seen it

loring park including the emerson parents community! there is a zoom meeting tonight for neighborhood emergency communication protocol training for ICE rapid response from 7:30 - 9pm, with spanish interpretation available - bit.ly/ZoomLPSanctu...

To add to a story first reported by Taylor, I've learned that some council members want to put City Operations Officer Margaret Anderson Kelliher in the impossible position of deciding whether her best friend Lisa Goodman gets to keep the patronage job Mayor Frey created for her.

is this the cutest and smallest square footage shop in downtown minneapolis? madge on 1st ave n is selling a lot of christmas themed home goods rights now

Relevant car brain xkcd today @animesickos.bsky.social

Apparently the freaks think people dislike Frey because he's Jewish????????? I hate it here

Out door knocking with @katiecashman.bsky.social who had to stop to pick up trash. Still time to send her back to city hall for another 4 years. You’ll never see her opponents doing this #votedorkatie

I'm rarely on Facebook these days ( But on the off chance I could influence one or two people in Ward 13, I posted my Election Day picks plus a pretty extensive "Why I'm Not Ranking Jacob Frey" www.facebook.com/lynnell.mick...

I’m glad that the truth is coming out about so called team Minneapolis and what their agenda really is - it’s bad for people Is what it is! Unless those people have the highest privilege! The addition to this from the Parks and Power forum is real - share this!! naomikritzer.com/2025/10/06/e...

If you have friends who need persuading to vote for @dewayneforminneapolis.com & @jazzformayor.bsky.social & NOT rank Frey, 2021 mayoral candidate Clint Conner has posted EXTENSIVE Frey receipts. (It’s essential to rank Fateh; but this might get normies off Frey at least) leaflet.pub/aabc93a9-c11...

the absolute funniest demographic chart maintained by the City of Minneapolis is its map of divorced dudes (they're all in Downtown West)

i biked by here the other day and noticed they are charging $3 to park in their lot. you love to see a business putting the costs of parking paid by for the people using it vs spread across all their customers!

funny how elizabeth shaffer made all her ads with sheriff dawanna witt in her uniform and a firefighter in uniform inactive on facebook, only to turn around and boost the minneapolis times saying katie cashman is violating city and state laws featuring brian o'hara in uniform

the minneapolis times says a photo of katie cashman and brian o'hara in uniform "violates clear city and state rules prohibiting the use of police imagery in political materials." i look forward to their piece condemning elizabeth shaffer for featuring sheriff dawanna witt in uniform too!

elizabeth shaffer keeps doing this lucille bluth thing of minimizing sums of money that are not insignificant to large swaths of ward 7. "it's only $600" to renter in a tier 3 building, and now, more than $40k spent on her by corporate PACs while katie cashman gets none bsky.app/profile/tayl...

elizabeth shaffer: "I was accused of being heavily supported by corporate PAC’s, which isn’t remotely true." from 1/1 to 9/16 - all of mpls spent $33,569.13 for shaffer we love mpls spent $7,649.94 for shaffer mpls for the many spent $0 either for katie cashman or against shaffer

Has anyone actually talked to Shaffer at an apartment "door knock?" I'm convinced she just haphazardly drops lit and gets out as fast as possible. There was lit on my door last week, but no knock, and the front desk said she was here for less than 30 minutes (for 250 units)

i asked about choice to invite 3 frey challengers to share an hour while he gave frey hour to himself. asked why he called it "face off" as if he's trying to create confrontation with 3 candidates who resist these negative politics response: "did i call it a face off?" it's the title bad faith!

Veteran Against Trump and other things #nokings

Katie Cashman has resolved >2000 constituent cases for the people of ward 7. Shaffer goes out of her way to message to CEOs. If you have friends in ward 7, reach out to make sure they plan to get to the polls to vote to re-elect Katie Cashman.

The zoom is okay... (That's downtown StP from downtown mpls 😛)

this loring park renter lives in 110 grant ward 7 residents, remember that elizabeth shaffer thinks we don't need any additional renter protection laws, while katie cashman supported the brentwood tenant union and introduced STOP slumlords the choice is clear www.mprnews.org/story/2025/1...

this dog says “divest MN from apartheid israel”

They are violating the law.

brian fritterer is the owner of new build with encroaching rock wall in photos 1 & 4 on cedar lake. he owns IPG, whose tenants formed a union to get him to address neglect of his properties. he donated $500k to donald trump, maxed out to elizabeth shaffer and lydia millard bsky.app/profile/tayl...

I'm tired of these shameful accusations of "Republican" from Taylor. These are good moderate DFL PAC donors who believe in the old credo "we all do better when I encroach on public land."
