My god. “Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

My assumption here is that once we're actually at war with Venezuela, it'll unlock more power for raids by ICE, etc, which of course has nothing to do with immigration except as a pretext to cart off anyone they care to eventually. Wonder if I'm missing anything. Probably.

I REALLY wish some local MN reporter would be brave enough this week to go back and see who the Republicans were who were expressing the most horror about the ‘politicization’ of Wellstone’s funeral at the time and get them on the record about this propaganda filled Kirk event.

The perennial question in Minneapolis: how was the mounted patrol funded this year? Answer: MPD has so much money floating around in the couch cushions, horse police always find a way.

I’d like to understand why Mayor Frey did not bother showing up for South Minneapolis today. Not even a campaign staffer to explain his absence. The Southside deserves investment and time. We deserve a Mayor who shows up and cares about us.
