there's a lot of people who mock liberals with "what are you going to do, vote harder" and yes actually that is exactly what will happen if you try to intimidate people outside voting places like this! that's how you drive presidential-level turnout from normie libs in a midterm

In less than a week the Kennedy Center has effectively closed and our local DC paper has been gutted, both by billionaires. I don’t think immigrants are our problem in this country.

Jamie Raskin at today's House Judiciary hearing on threats to free speech. youtu.be/AcZqT4sJMcg?...

Speaker Johnson is lying. He knows that counting mail votes is not “magic” or “fraudulent,” it is following the law. Echoing these lies shows how beholden Johnson is to the Liar In Chief, but the Speaker of the House should be above such awful behavior. This is disgraceful.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

This race was such a massive swing blowout that Democrat Taylor Rehmet literally won a city called White Settlement

We treated the internet like a strip mine. Now we have to treat it like a Superfund site.

Watch the video as a recklessly driven cheap car careens around and a gang of armed thugs spring out to menace an innocent civilian, like a kidnapping or robbery or murder-for-hire. It looks like organized crime taking place in a third-world country, because it is.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

This happened to me yesterday. Two ICE officers abruptly blocked a freeway entrance, got out and illegally threatened me with arrest. All on video, thanks to a journalist in the backseat filming the entire thing. Press makes us safer.

"Only 10 human cases of Guinea worm were reported worldwide in 2025, the lowest number ever recorded, bringing the ancient disease closer than ever to eradication." We are so close to eradication. What a legacy for President Carter who was so instrumental here. www.cartercenter.org/news/guinea-...

Incredible and insane feat of hubris to replace a persons lungs under conditions like this and they pulled it off

BREAKING: A former Illinois deputy has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for fatally shooting Sonya Massey, who had called 911 for help.

Jew in Amsterdam here. Please use Anne Frank as a comparison point to explain how state persecution of scapegoats impacts children, that is the point of her example, thanks

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

This is basically getting un-personed for Trumpworld.

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

So damn much of, well, *everything* right now is down to "treat other people with respect and as people rather than as props

Big thanks to Reform for helping us keep out Reform in Gorton & Denton.

So basically we have a solid center left majority under PR, or a knife edge possibility of hard right government under FPTP. The country really can't afford the luxury of political parties' vanity when it comes to electoral pacts.

I wrote this yesterday about the hero city of Minneapolis www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKOW...

Hahaha can you imagine how insufferable we’d be if the People of Minnesota won the Nobel peace prize

This seems like a big deal: “At the end of the day, I have to look my daughters in the eye and tell them: ‘I believe I did what was right.’ And I am doing that today.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Step 1) Show that you understand the problem people will face Step 2) Show them what you and city workers are going to do about it Step 3) Tell people how they can contribute to solving shared problems Step 4) Demonstrate a sense of humor and an understanding that living together can be fun

We are all yellow folder guy! 😆

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign. Gregory Bovino must also be fired. No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

it's like someone conducting a home invasion and shooting the occupants dead, and then claiming that the occupants were terrorists planning to bomb a bus. "so far, no evidence has emerged" doesn't suffice to describe what happened. what happened is that a killer is transparently lying

One of the best organizers I know in the Twin Cities has a great line, "We can't always take away the hurt, but we can take away the alone."

I will always fight to defend the rule of law in Minnesota. Last night's ruling protects that investigation by barring federal agents from altering or destroying any evidence they captured involving the fatal shooting of Alex. Justice will be done.

Never forget that the reason they are so convinced you’re all getting paid is that they are all getting paid.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

The founders were inspired by the Haudenosaunee, who had weak chiefs and strong councils. They made the mistake of not following that example closely. Singular executives are only needed in emergencies. War chiefs weren't in charge all the time. This was also true of Athenian generals.

Given the weather today, it’s time to repost my favorite phase diagram: Nakaya’s snow crystal morphology. We are towards the bottom right today. 🧪 ⚛️ #cryoEM

AOC: "How rich is it that she is saying showing up to the scene of a protest with a legally owned weapon should be grounds for a person's death, execution at the hands of the state, by the same party and administration that praises Kyle Rittenhouse."

“O’Hara instructed his officers to preserve the scene. The BCA was enroute to the scene.”—that could matter.

The other thing that happens tho is that a large number of white people from the neighborhood show up to observe. Literally the only thing that gives ICE goons pause is white people from the community watching them. That’s why every school has parent patrols and vulnerable places ask for observers.

We had 50K people downtown yesterday, no ICE and zero incidents. ICE is the fucking problem.

We owe an incredible debt to the Minnesotans who are on the streets protesting and documenting what is happening.

Rapid responders still out there, tracking ICE. In spite of everything, even now. Heroes

🔥🔥🔥 #BoredOfPeace

You're not being hunted by us. You're being hunted by THE ENTIRE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS

We cannot let their cruelty make us forget that they are also painfully, unbelievably, absurdly stupid www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Better things are possible. Some of them are easy to do. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

definitely not sobbing as i sit here and watch this

I see Zack Polanski means business. ✊️✊️

Today’s Minnesota Star Tribune front page will be hung in museums in future. Every headline, every inch of it documenting a failed state; a descent into authoritarianism.

I've been here 24 hours, but already with what I've seen, well, I genuinely believe we're going to win. People here are well aware that what happens here impacts the entire country, that it sets the tone for resistance. ICE is angry, ICE is terrified, of how deeply unpopular it is.
