Tom Morello live in Minneapolis

Over the past few months we've received numerous questions from folks about protected vs paint-only bike infrastructure. After considerable and careful research on the subject, consider this our protected infrastructure manifesto! #saferforall #allagesandabilities #bikesbuildcommunity

The @bikepackingcom.bsky.social folks put together a map of all the Alex Pretti memorial rides happening this weekend. Find one near you! @bikesky.social

On Saturday we ride for Alex Pretti 1:00pm at Washburn Fair Oaks Park From Angry Catfish: “We're asking folks to host rides and come together. Bike shops and non-profits, cycling orgs and alt cycling collectives, city and rural. We are many but we stand together as one.”

We are observers, not protestors. We show up to document and film the atrocities ICE is committing. Using 5 year olds as bait. Kidnapping senior citizens. Breaking down doors without warrants. Murdering poets and nurses. Media has all of that information because *observers* were there to document it

When will it be enough for you, @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social ? When will you be moved? You should be standing in the streets of Minneapolis. You should be shouting from the rooftops. What a pathetic pair of cowards.

once again i am asking literally anyone in a position of power to do literally anything so that our neighbors stop getting fucking murdered in the street

Sounds like another extremely bad situation in Minneapolis this morning.

A person just crashed their vehicle through check-in at DTW airport. But yeah, moral outrage online is reserved for a person in an ebike riding on the sidewalk, not systemic car violence that has plagued us for nearly a century.

On a downtown street in Minneapolis, as people stream out from the massive march, Mary Tyler Moore says “fuck ice.”

It’s cold. Like, really cold. Still biked. #MSPCycleCast

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Video of Bovino's federal convoy rolling down 25th Street in the Wedge, deploying smoke and tear gas. youtu.be/hLPejBYMGfY?...

Just your friendly reminder that the Minneapolis City Council voted on resolution opposing the use of these weapons in December. Mayor Frey did not sign it and it was not unanimously adopted by the council. Hold politicians accountable. lims.minneapolismn.gov/Download/Met...

ICE letting off tear gas at 29th and Blaisdell in Whittier (Minneapolis), convoy of agents, several people appear hurt by gas. Car left abandoned in the street

Federal agent convoy south down Lyndale after using green gas in the vicinity of Mueller Park about 15 minutes ago.

After gassing a crowd, federal agents left a rifle magazine behind at Mueller Park. Crowd standing by, calling 911 for police to come retrieve it.

How could the state DFL possibly have caused people in Minneapolis not to trust them? A mystery for the ages. The world may never know

Evict ICE, not us. Allowing our neighbors to be evicted because ICE has made it impossible for them to pay rent is unacceptable. Minneapolis needs an immediate eviction moratorium to keep people in their homes.

If you’re able, please donate to Colectiva Bilingüe to help families across MPLS’ four Spanish bilingual schools. Please specify “rent support” with your donation, as Colectiva Bilingüe fundraises for many initiatives throughout the school year. ❤️ colectivabilingue.org/en/donate/

For those calling on MPD to start arresting ice agents for their illegal activities… my husband watched as ice pulled into the 2nd precinct and an MPD in uniform got into the back seat. They are openly collaborating, in full view of witnesses. I don’t know why you still think there’s “good cops.”

Want to help people in Minneapolis right now? Here are a lot of ways to help!

Just had a guy going door to door among the businesses along Minnehaha Avenue drop this off. Hell yeah.

Minneapolis Public Schools is offering online learning for families who prefer it, from Tuesday, January 13th to February 12th. Minneapolis Public Schools está ofreciendo aprendizaje en línea para los familias que lo prefieren a partir del martes, 13 de enero hasta el 12 de febrero.

The murderer’s name is Jonathan Ross.

This the right call. Please check in with neighbors who may need support with childcare.

NEW: Second video shows ICE shooting in Minneapolis. A woman, a U.S. citizen, was killed

We could've been a real city

If it’s gonna be this warm (0°C) in January, I might as well warm up the grill.

Let’s not forget J6ers who Trump pardoned were re-arrested for committing murder, sexual assault and soliciting minors.

Side streets are butt. #SaintPaul #BikeSky

Cargo bikes best mini-vans as the perfect family vehicle and here are 10 reasons why. momentummag.com/cargo-bikes-...

16 year olds should be riding ebikes not killing people with pickup trucks

This is my favorite car brained comment because every major sports stadia in the metro were actually built along the Green Line LRT

Easily the most prolific bike mechanic educator ever. Calvin Jones has been a calm source of diy info for over a decade. In his free time he coaches high schoolers in Stillwater. May the trails be continuous and the asphalt smooth as you ride into retirement! @parktool.com

An off-duty ICE agent was just confronted in Minneapolis after people noticed a Nazi SS lightning bolt tattoo on his neck. If you’re proud enough to ink it on your neck, why are you running when people notice?

Slushy sloppy soft icy mess for the #BikeCommute. #MSPCycleCast @cathywurzer.bsky.social #MorningAnnouncements

We built bus lanes so buses wouldn’t get stuck in traffic. Then we let traffic park in them.

If you can do so, riding a bike daily is a really good middle finger to the oil barons ruining the world.

"I'm so sorry that we could not have done this earlier...to have saved the loved ones in your life. But I thank you fopr the work that you have done...to ensure that this pain not be felt by others who call this same city home." — Mayor Mamdani at McGuinness Blvd. presser youtube.com/shorts/uwAYI...

The latest in sidewalk clearing technology, now being demonstrated on Hennepin Ave.

Testing negative for the flu, but still physically recovering. I’d love to bike, but I’m not there yet. Letting @metrotransitmn.bsky.social drive today!

Caught on Hennepin by @darthblaise.bsky.social

This morning I walked home over 35W. There was only ~1 inch of snow on the ground, but plows were already out doing their thing on the highway. Meanwhile, the sidewalk I was on will likely not get cleared for hours or days. We *all* need clear sidewalks in winter. #PlowMPLSsidewalks
