St. Paul represents!

Here in St. Paul, they actually get that less is more and that elegance beats apocalyptic tackiness. 🎆

This is America 💔 We can't look away.

Doozy of a poem. 👏👏

"He's swept away suddenly." And go ahead, let this beauty of a flash sweep you away. ✨️

The stage is falling apart at the rehearsal for Freedom 250's July 4th celebration.

"People have compared the fair to a Potemkin Village. But my experience was more akin to stumbling upon a scam." 💰💰

"If they hadn't come after me, I would have just been a guy whose sole act of defiance was writing a stern email to a faceless bureaucrat... "...But for them to come after me six months later for that one email, it makes me feel like we do have a lot of power www.npr.org/2026/07/01/n...

This is just sad, on so many levels.

I agree with all of this, especially the sniveling lapdog part. www.startribune.com/tom-emmer-co...

Not for long. Not for long.

Betting on wildfires: Welcome to our callous and dystopian world.

Seen in Cleveland...

Wow, the wordplay here is breathtaking.✨️

The Supreme Court is utterly diseased. We must flip the senate, block all Trump nominees, kill the filibuster, elect a Dem POTUS, and pass a law adding four seats to remediate the racist cancer on the bench.

Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why? They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

Here’s another angle of the privately funded Obama Center continuing to reflect beautifully. 💙

In case you forgot what democracy looks like. It is too easy to normalize fascism. Whose streets? Our streets.

Credit where credit is due. We see the work of activist Vijay Bombs all over Los Angeles. Glad to see they took their brilliant work to DC. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨This is elections interference, period, full-stop. It should be considered treason and an impeachable offense that Congress has an obligation to act on. 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Did DoD just admit in a court filing that it used xAI's Grok Gov Model to hit the girls' school on the first day of the Iran war? Based on some passages flagged by @rgoodlaw.bsky.social in DoD's recent filing in NAACP's case against X, it looks like it did 1/

Zohran’s speech at the Knicks ceremony & Obama’s speech at the presidential center opening are cousins — two different ways of getting at the belief that hope is a choice, that hard work is worth it, that setbacks are never permanent & long odds are not fate. Stubborn collective optimism is back!

The feds' bogus conspiracy case against 'The Minneapolis 15' is outrageous But their real target is YOU -- to shut you up and make regular folks think twice about protesting Trump's stunts to steal the election in November Free the Minneapolis 15! My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

Those were the days, if only more had appreciated how precious they were.

this is honestly an excellent celebratory and motivational speech from Mamdani at the Knicks parade. i'm ready to run through a wall, and i'm not even a Knicks fan

Last night at the Lynx game the league honored the leader of Haven Watch and the 10,000+ attendees rose to applaud

I've only skimmed the first dozen pages or so of this MN indictment but my initial gloss is that it attempts to criminalize perfectly lawful behavior like keeping track of ICE vehicles and using Signal to coordinate.

That's why a helicopter was flying low over our house this a.m. FFS.

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.

The juxtaposition of the Knicks win/celebration and what’s happening in DC couldn’t be more distinct. Diversity, community, spontaneity, populism vs. tax dollars spent on Trump’s allies, friends and business partners.

"Bread and circuses" except the bread has never been more expensive and the circus is lining the pockets of the oligarchy.

Julia Roberts: Renee Nicole Goode is not a symbol. She is an American woman, a queer woman who was doing the very best she could do to be good in an unjust world. And I am honored to celebrate her life and her legacy tonight, because the life she gave is our responsibility to carry.

One year ago today, tens of thousands of Minnesotans descended on the state Capitol despite an ongoing manhunt for the assassin of Melissa and Mark Hortman. We grieved but didn't let fear stop us then, and we haven't let it stop us in the year since. #minnesotastrong

For all the talk of genocide elsewhere, this is going to end up as the largest scale mass killing event in modern history. A crime against humanity & the rule of law of almost unimaginable proportions for which Musk must be marched in chains to the courthouse & then to jail for the rest of his life.

Aerial PARTIAL view of the anti racist, anti fascist crowd in Belfast right now. City Hall to the left for scale. This - this is the real Belfast. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

turns out every writer who imagined a dystopian future where authoritarians openly lied to you through the television vastly overestimated the intelligence and commitment of their fictional antagonists

Jalen Brunson: “You’re allowed to think about the worst possible scenario. But you gotta go out there and do something about it.” A good mantra for fighting fascism too.

It's filled with monsters all right.

“I promise you, God willing, I will attend the next one.” The Somali World Cup ref turned away by Trump & Stephen Miller’s blatantly racist policies speaks about the experience. We have absolutely no business hosting this event at the moment. A disgrace. ⚽️(from AP)
