ICE vs ice at 44th and Hiawatha earlier today.

Mamdani setting up a permitting reform and land inventory task force is some real sickos yes stuff.

Mamdani arrives to his mayoral inauguration at City Hall in a motorcade of NYC taxi cabs—workers he went on hunger strike with in 2021.

Mamdani: I have been told that this is the occasion to reset expectations, that I should use this opportunity to encourage the people of New York to ask for little and expect even less. I will do no such thing. The only expectation I seek to reset is that of small expectations.

Obsessed with this juxtaposition

Watching Bernie swear in Zohran is almost (almost) better than him becoming president. let a thousand Zohrans bloom

day one in mamdani’s new york

🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️ "For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty"

The news coverage of Mamdani's oath of office reminded me of this: in Minnesota, there is a gorgeous Qu'ran that is used by Minnesotan Muslims to swear into office. They then sign it. sahanjournal.com/democracy-po...

🔮🔮🔮MAYOR MAMDANI 🔮🔮🔮

Breaking News: Zohran Mamdani, the 34-year-old democratic socialist who captured New Yorkers’ attention and ardor, was officially sworn in.

The GOP’s midterm strategy is literally just Comet Pizza

Stephen Miller Is The New Republic’s 2025 Scoundrel of the Year - The New Republic

Lolll

huh. www.startribune.com/umn-professo...

Temu Stephen Miller

anyone taught by wurman should ask the university of minnesota law school for a refund

I hope ICE forgot to buy groceries

here’s 2025 in minneapolis politics, starting with the SD60 special election endorsing convention and ending with jamal osman on a tiktok live and everything in between. it’s been a wild ride this year youtu.be/MwgSXt8p-WE

Little Egret. #Birdoftheday #outstretched

The strib is reporting Woodbury officials were not aware of a planned ICE facility. This means there’s no real plan and ample time to throw sand in the gears. Contact your city council in Woodbury. Get on the phone every day. Go to every zoning meeting. Start now. When it comes up you’ll be ready

Senator Bernie Sanders will administer the oath of office to New York City’s Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani during his public swearing-in ceremony at City Hall on January 1. trib.al/ylTzosO

By the time Tor Top’s mother was sick with cholera, the nearby clinic had been shuttered for two weeks. He bundled her into a rented canoe and paddled toward the nearest hospital, eight hours away. Less than halfway into the journey, his mother died.

Say no to Waymo.

I love you Powderhorn/ Ward 9 ❤️

Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov, a freshman at Brown, had a condition as a child that required brain surgery. The experience created an unshakable ambition to become a brain surgeon, his sister said. He died after being shot on campus on Saturday.

BREAKING: Seattle Children's Hospital successfully fought this summer to get DOJ's invasive trans care subpoena quashed. The Seattle court partially unsealed the case this week. This was the fourth, previously sealed case mentioned in this recent Law Dork report: www.lawdork.com/p/judges-doj...

This article is sympathetic towards ICE but still a good read because it's clear that Minneapolis and Saint Paul are doing AMAZING work (with a little assistance from our weather). www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Maybe we should talk about why we have a "different system" during our 250th birthday celebrations this summer

Reminder Minnesota: Congresswoman Angie Craig voted for the Lake Riley Act that took away due process from immigrants. She is partly responsible for the kidnapping of immigrants and families being ripped apart.

The Minneapolis City Council unanimously voted to strengthen the city’s separation ordinance, which prohibits city workers from helping enforce federal immigration laws.

Rochelle from Edina @startribune.com would like you to observe decorum while ICE terrorizes the community. In the long run, courts will sort everything out. She recommends carrying a passport when outside, just in case.

ICE w identical plates at Cedar this morning.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

Right now it's all hands on deck to respond to ICE's goons kidnapping people off our streets. But there needs to be real accountability for how Frey and his team spent millions of dollars to hype racist, anti-Somali smears to win an election with zero concern for the consequences.

This week, I’m excited to partner with ArbeiterBrewing.com to fundraise for the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota ILCM.org and local families directly impacted by ICE. 100% of proceeds from my hand-printed posters and Arbeiter’s limited-edition beer, called “Eff ICE Mango Hazy” will be donated! 🍻❤️‍🔥

Abortion & trans healthcare travel together. Can't have one without the other.

Seems pretty clear this is meant to bait Democrats into voting against this. It also includes a ban on "Administering, prescribing, or dis2 pensing to an individual medications" including testosterone and puberty blocking drugs. www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

In addition, it also seems to include a series of definitions for gender-affirming care that could be restricted. All right here. www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Tucked inside the Republican bill for health care subsidies, a clause that would restrict the money from being used for abortion (with exception for rape, incest or life of the mother) or for "any sex trait modification procedure or service." www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

I will mumble through a stiff testimonial. Dan Suitor is a lawyer who knows the laws. He will treat you like family, make you feel cared for, like you're a tiny baby who needs to be told he can't leave the house and appear before a judge dressed like that.

I first posted this at 10pm on Friday, but to provide a more serious explanation of what I’m doing here: I've officially gone into business for myself. After being fired for my choice of pro bono cases 3 months ago, I’ve been doing a few stray cases, but it's time to make things formal.
