Why even run this year if you're a republican? Spend a year answering questions like "Do you think it's good that the president spit on a group of homeless veterans today" on your way to a 30 point ass kicking

Oh hey, this is true. I hope folks are still calling their members of congress. Please keep calling your members of congress. (And if you've been doing that & donating funds where you can, that means a lot.) (Folks in MN call the governor if you have energy enough.)

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

this is all a serious matter, so please know i am not trying to be flippant about any of it, but — gosh, you’re all so amazing. this need of $800 has been almost covered in an hour

“Epstein class” is good framing

An observation I've been thinking about: Around 2020, we were told that US political & corporate elites had been gripped by "wokeness" & thus become obsessed with climate change & diversity. This wokeness was alleged to be so severe & monomaniacal that it threatened the entire culture & economy.

This #FundFriday, I'm asking folks to please support my neighborhood's fundraiser, which provides direct aid to neighbors who are struggling. 🙏🏼All donations go to covering rent, legal expenses, and supplies to help keep people safe from eviction and the continued federal occupation in Minnesota. 💸🏘️

America is fucked long-term that so many voters cannot accurately absorb factual information.

tomorrow i would really like to challenge a few folks with larger followings than me to adopt a rent and raise it in one day. my little group chat and my followers have paid like 70 families rents in the past four days. i believe that some of y’all could help us keep one family housed.

I am accepting this challenge and raising $1200 for one Minneapolis family to cover their overdue rent today. Venmo me at nkkritzer and I will send the money to that family once it's raised. I believe in us. Cat photo because you know who likes cat photos (everyone, everyone likes cat photos)

Courage is contagious. Let’s keep going.

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

The abuses have been there for a generation. So have the solutions. @vermontgmg.bsky.social on what to do about ICE: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Elizabeth, a 10-year-old Minnesota girl, spent a month detained at the ICE facility in Dilley, TX before her release last night w/ her mom. Dilley now has a measles outbreak and hundreds of other kids remain detained. Elizabeth has flu-like symptoms and her mom has hives, a school official told me

Please continue to observe, patrol, and support our immigrant neighbors. We still need the help of our neighbors. We cannot let our guards down as this is far from over. Jason Chavez 4/

However, I cannot in good conscience tell you that those who are vulnerable to deportation are safe. Tom Homan said there will be “targeted operations” but that if you’re in the country as an undocumented immigrant you’re not off the table. 3/

Let me be clear, this is as a result of our neighbors who patrol, observe, and support our immigrant neighbors with mutual aid and daily tasks. Our community has created a system that keeps families together which has been successful. 2/

This morning, Tom Homan said that 700 federal agents will be drawing down effective today. At the press conference he said it will leave around 2,000 federal agents in Minnesota doing “immigration enforcement”. 1/

WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.

In MN there are many families currently needing food assistance due to the ice occupation making it too dangerous for them to go to school, work,or leave their homes to get food. People facing hunger is another aspect of the occupation that is hurting people. Below are links to some MN food banks.

(milhouse van Houten voice) my mom said Melania was cool

People have been shouting for years that no one should be a billionaire, that wealth on that level is personally poison and societally catastrophic, and now we have millions of terribly written emails demonstrating in the clearest terms that every one of those shouts was impossibly correct.

ICE continues to separate children from their parents in Powderhorn Park. Alex was kidnapped by ICE on his way to work. Let’s reunite him with his son & family. Luz has been a strong advocate for our immigrant community in MN and now her son has to grow up without his father. gofund.me/e9f8947a2

I was extremely naive in my twenties and early thirties, took people very much at their word when it came to values, and absolutely destroyed my mental health (and my career) thinking I could publicly demand accountability and survive it whole. (1/?)

let me tell you i am very serious when i say im making a list of what small businesses have and haven’t done over the last two months that will affect my purchasing decisions for the rest of my life

If you want probabilities, I believe it is 90-95% likely the 2026 elections will be free & fair (at least by 🇺🇸's not-fully-democratic standards: bsky.app/profile/mcop...) & the GOP will transfer power if they lose. The problem is 5-10% is unacceptably high if we truly fancy ourselves a "democracy":

This is very good. But, it bears repeating, none of this is isolated. The subhead says "A local principal, teachers, and parent volunteers have banded together to keep the families safe." This is EVERY school in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and many suburbs and small towns across the state.

No beds. No nurse. No answer on how many people in custody. U.S. Rep. Kelly Morrison details what she saw at Whipple over the weekend:

This is all quite terrifying.
