"It's some deep psychological thing, but when you win the presidency, you don't win the midterms, when you think of it, we shouldn't even have an election.” - The President of the United States 'joking' the day he threatens invoking the insurrection act on Minnesota.

Here is how the Department of Homeland Security's largest operation ever to the Twin Cities compares to the largest law enforcement agencies in the state of Minnesota. The 1,000 additional agents deployed this week with the 2,000 here now is 30% of the total # of officers to the state (10k).

The tactics and approach without transparency while the White House threatens reckoning and retribution, while spewing lies is the issue. Most of us want the laws enforced.

To say a bit what people’s lives are like: both of my kids’ schools have chats that are connected to the parents and neighbors patrolling school grounds observing for ICE. Every a.m. other parents monitor them in case we need to quickly go to the school to help prevent a child from being kidnapped.

Oh look, 25 year old Minnesota Laws: " Law enforcement policies and training programs must emphasize the need to respect the balance between the rights of all persons to be free from unreasonable governmental intrusions and law."

Hundreds of Rochester High School students protesting ICE during a lunchtime walkout yesterday. The bridge is packed! Love to see this solidarity in Minnesota!

Parents watch as students at North Senior High School in North St. Paul staged a mid-afternoon walkout on Friday in protest of ICE, the deployment of tear gas by agents on school grounds. and the killing of Renee Good by an ICE agent.

Did we figure out where in 'St Paul' this is? The TikToker is on the phone with the Ramsey County Sheriff asking for support when ICE is at the door, so it's probably Vadnais/ Little Canada/ Shoreview/ Arden Hills?

Contacted the vendor the other day- this flag is now available for purchase flagmaker-print.com/products/don...

Hundreds of Roseville Area High School students protesting ICE at 36 and Hamline on Monday. The bridge is packed! Love to see this solidarity!

i only found out recently that the term twin cities originally referred to minneapolis and st. anthony and st. paul is short for street paul

'Don't Tread On Me' sticker order is in! We will mail it to you for free with the expectation that you donate $10 or more to your local food shelf since the White House has frozen Food Stamps funding to Minnesota. Message here or email us: maplehoodunited at gmail

There are up to 2,000 to 3,000 ICE agents in the Twin Cities roving around stopping and detaining people on suspicion of being an immigrant- but I have yet to see them entering Little Canada and checking the papers of the Little Canadians. What are they waiting for?

Every passing day we have to argue people about whether thousands of armed masked agents in unmarked cars should be disappearing people without oversight or cooperation with local authorities is a day we can't focus on Maplewood. ICE out- let's get back to our normal programming.

If I were to have these make into stickers or a flag to give out as soon as possible, who would I need to contact? Looking for a Twin Cities Vendor if possible.

"Shutting down Northstar is a big step in the wrong direction for our transit system & no amount of buses in the region can make up for that. We can open as many bus lines as we want, but that won’t turn the tides more in favor of public transit in our region." streets.mn/2026/01/08/n...

Many people are saying this.

Jesse Ventura may be radical in some of his views but he is a true patriot. I'll stand behind Ventura any day. youtu.be/udSUbBhA8I0?...

DONT TREAD ON ME

Here is how the Department of Homeland Security's largest operation ever to the Twin Cities compares to the largest law enforcement agencies in the state of Minnesota. The ~2,000 DHS/ ICE/ Border patrol agents deployed is a 20% increase in the total # of officers to the state.

SEAL Team Santa suggesting he'll run for another term. Lets do it.

I want to agree, but he didn't phase it in the form of a question.

Can we dedicate just .01% of the outrage, influencers and resources of the DHS and their supporters for addressing our municipal fragmentation problems. Falcon Heights persists despite our extensive investigations

Who would have thought that sending thousands of armed masked agents of questionable vetting without the support of state or local law enforcement would go badly? Video is a tough watch.

They don't want you to know this, but 40% of Willernie City Hall is in Mahtomedi, and Mahtomedi City Hall is in Willernie... Dissolve Willernie!

Saint Paul's Town & Country Club has 100 acres of riverfront Property near the B line BRT, Green Line, Vandalia Square, bike trails, the 63 bus to Grand Ave & University. Why is one of the most desirable locations in the Metro still low tax private golf valued at $200k/ac?

2026 Goals: - Force Maplewood to have something that resembles the slightest bit of ambition. - Get White Bear Lake to end their bus ban - Minnesota HoA reform - MN Zoning Reform - MN reform to 'Corridors for Commerce' rural subsidies - Support Strong Towns - DISSOLVE FALCON HEIGHTS

It was always the plan to Make Saint Paul Bigger and annex southward to West St Paul, then move eastward to absorb South St Paul.

Can we dedicate just 1% of the outrage for addressing our municipal fragmentation problems. Falcon Heights persists despite our investigations

Rochester City charter says only 50 petition signatures and evidence of malfeasance or nonfeasance submitted to county court to initiate a recall election over the $65M+ sports center boondoggle. 🤔

I wish just 1% of the attention that right wing twitter is giving to those day care centers in Minnesota went to how poorly organized and inefficient the state's local governments are. Massive fragmentation, redundancy, and outsourcing.

Fun Fact from the 1996 documentary Jingle All The Way- After running out of gas, Arnold Schwarzenegger takes over 3 hours push his 5000+ pound GMC Suburban 9 miles from the Minneapolis Hennepin Ave Bridge at Nicollet Island all the way to Mickey's Diner in downtown Saint Paul.

The HoA won't like this...

We watched Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1996 Christmas Eve Day documentary 'Jingle All The Way' and have determined that 'to jingle all the way' means driving over 100 miles and 3+ hours looking for a very specific gift. This only accounts for driving, not shopping or other antics.

'The good news is we created a natural economic experiment. The bad news is we created a natural economic experiment.'

Sadly, my sense is that years of work with the "stop for me" efforts in St. Paul (which I've written about more than once) have made zero difference on the streets. If anything, drivers have gotten worse. www.startribune.com/after-uptick...

Never forget what they took from you.

But if we put a bikelane on that street, how will emergency vehicles get through?

All I'm saying is I'm saying- we need to stop asking why Maplewood is the way it is and start asking should Maplewood be the way it is. Also, St. Paul Brewing is a Gem.

Yeah, it's cold, but it's a dry cold- so it really isn't that bad. /s

Replace the World Series with Drop Dead Fred. Why isn't there a film festival dedicated to Minnesota's 80s/ 90s Film Renaissance?

Every once in a while imagine the Midwest with a European or Asian rail network

Fun Fact: The Students Living on the Saint Paul campus could easily trigger a vote to dissolve the city that they actually live in- Falcon Heights. FH supporters say this is a waste since FH doesn't control the campus & fairgrounds while promising they are efficient & thoughtful
