Congrats to @bradlander.bsky.social who came to Minneapolis during the heart of Operation Metro Surge to help us resist ICE’s illegal occupation of our City. Can’t wait until he’s in congress where he’ll work to abolish ICE.

Thank YOU.

26 world cup games in the next four days, feels like us sports sickos have just been training our whole lives for this

Minnesota born artist LeRoy Neiman painted the Minnesota State Capitol quadriga (the four horses) in honor of the Bicentennial.

Over the past 13 years police in the United States have killed approximately 16,000 people. Over the same period in the UK, the figure is 34

Someone has been projecting images all over D.C. “It’s swampier than ever.” The Kennedy Center one is pretty hilarious. 😂😂😂

YOU ARE A BETTER FATHER THAN THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

This artwork by Karl Jilg, commissioned by the Swedish government, reveals how city streets have excluded human beings. Sometimes, imagination conveys our world closer to reality than reality itself.

Weird how any negative framing of our auto culture is automatically anti-car & radical yet the billions of dollars spent on aggressive car ads and auto first infrastructure isn't framed as anti-pedestrian, anti-bike, anti-transit, anti-person, anti-senior, anti-child or anti-planet.

noticing a lot of people forgot what our greatest modern philosopher said about patriotism

There is an amazing amount of information about Juneteenth and the people behind it at the National Museum of African American History and Culture. Here’s a link to the Museum’s Juneteenth reading list: nmaahc.si.edu/visit/museum... There are even recipe books and children’s books, too. #BookSky

Bonus whittle wings 🥰🥰

It’s true

The administration has done fucked up. One of the Minnesota 15 is a folk singer, and he spent time in his holding cell leading a sing-a-long with other detainees. Hey ICE, you wanna make a Woody Guthrie? Cuz this is how you make a Woody Guthrie.

“The United States could not exist without Native history having been here first,” said Aaron Carapella, who is of Cherokee descent and creates maps of Indigenous territories. “There’s so many influences that Native people embedded into the fabric of what we call America.”

The number of people at the Knicks parade today were roughly equal to the combined population of Wyoming, Vermont, North Dakota, South Dakota, Delaware, Montana & Alaska. So if you heard about any issues in NYC today, but not about any crimes in those states, you know the agenda of that media.

Obama shouts out "those ordinary people in the Twin Cities who braved frigid temperatures, risked their own safety, standing shoulder to shoulder to look our for their neighbors and sometimes for strangers because they knew that was the right thing to do"

I love this. Unmute.

Such good news. Human beings are capable of magical and wonderful things. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Woodbury has a "Juneteenth Walk" to teach people about slavery. That's sent the MAGAs into hyperdrive. Republicans loved human slavery. Republicans are evil.

This is an incredibly smart sentence.

Not to psychoanalyze the prosecutors but our case was a huge embarrassment to the federal justice system. I would not be surprised if they’re trying to rectify their corrupt “mistakes” with more aggression and cruelty. Do not get complacent. These people need our support. bsky.app/profile/marg...

ok so is olivia miles already the best basketball player of all time?

Fundraising time: A Minneapolis-area Liberian mother, who has been in the US since she was a child in the ‘90s, was taken by ICE 4 weeks ago and is still detained Her family, including 4 kids ages 8-17, need $2000 to cover the legal fees to bring her home I’ll match 1st $500 Venmo @wrigleyfield

Moutet shouldn't have done this but I cannot stop laughing

World Cup might be the closest thing we’ll get to world peace

The Democratic base wants red meat as much as the GOP does. Our base is actually bigger than theirs. So give it to them and win. It isn’t very hard.

Norway fans are rowing their way up the escalators in Boston

The entire Uruguay World Cup team got pulled up on the side of the road and investigated by immigration. Sniffer dogs, luggage ripped open. Trump America is a global embarrassment.

By calling them antifa, the prosecutor is admitting on the legal record that ICE are facists. ----- Fifteen people charged over alleged interference in Minnesota immigration crackdown https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jun/16/minnesota-immigration-enforcement-conspiracy-charges

Long story short, solidarity with Minnesota, always.

Still one of my favorite videos youtu.be/d-7o9xYp7eE?...

You don't have to answer the door for the Feds. Do not voluntarily talk to the Feds. If they have a warrant signed by an actual judge, then they can do precisely what the warrant says. But DO NOT TALK TO THE FEDS. Do not answer the door. If you're arrested, your only words are "I want a lawyer."

A surprisingly effective legal strategy: if federal agents show up at your door, and you’re dumb enough to answer, don’t speak. You are unlikely to out-talk them, or outsmart trained interrogators. You won’t improve your situation through improvisation. Ask for a lawyer. Then shut fuck up.

The Dutch doing this in fuckin Dallas, Texas is very funny to me, an American who has seen Cowboys fans who represent one of the most valuable sports teams on earth never approach this level of enthusiasm this century.

Beautiful.

It is Pride Night at the ballgame there is a giant literal rainbow directly over Minnie & Paul. Impressive work, Twins.

Mexican fans spot a South Korean fan and immediately adopt him

World Cup Analysis: The crisp red of the South Korean jerseys juxtaposed w sharp white of the Czechia jerseys has a pleasing effect against the neon green grass, with its comforting geometric white lines. The slowly swaying refs in subdued turquoise kit give a mesmerizing langour to the proceedings.
