Peter Attia is in the Epstein files and I read a bunch of the emails so you don’t have to. I can’t imagine taking the first call or email. But longevity is about proximity to wealth and power. substack.com/@vajenda/not...

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks. They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

for the last few months i’ve noticed that if i am in my dining room and it is quiet inside, then outside it sometimes sounds like the frogs at dusk sound we get in the summer, but it is definitely not summer. so there are definitely no frogs. probably. maybe.

Today’s Alex Pretti Unity ride sounds amazing, but a local community group asked me to do one tomorrow (Sunday) for anyone who couldn’t make it today, so if you’re interested in a South Minneapolis 5-miler on 95% protected lanes, DM me.

I guess I should not be all that surprised but oh well, at this point in my life, surprise dissipates pretty fast anyway.

In a scathing order, a judge orders the release of 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his father. “Philadelphia, September 17, 1787: "Well, Dr. Franklin, what do we have?" "A republic, if you can keep it." With a judicial finger in the constitutional dike, It is so ORDERED.”

"MPR News has learned that the police chief in the small southern Minnesota city of St. Peter intervened Thursday afternoon to prevent federal immigration agents from arresting a local resident" who had been observing federal agents. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

This is fucking beautiful

if you feel like passing around a link today and helping fundraise for rent that will actually get paid today (and in the next few days for families who have a grace period) you can send here. we will be going hard all day. i won’t be posting about it because I don’t want to flood your feeds.

An amazing MN Librarian assembled us a reading list to add to the website so people can do more than donate, they can learn to organize in their communities. standwithminnesota.com/read

This is EXACTLY what St. Paul has been warning about all these years.

Hennepin County Sheriff Dawanna Witt needs to stop assisting ICE. It’s very clear that the sheriff’s department has been harassing, intimidating, arresting and coming out in force to assist ICE. They have been using force against neighbors who are working to protect our immigrant neighbors. 2/

Car wash snobs in the twin cities- where does one go for the best drive thru car wash with undercarriage wash?

Am I more excited that I am at the noon concert and for the music that is about to happen or that I saw Jesse Ventura here in a 90s style Polaris snowmobile jacket

Minnesota based Independent Journalist GEORGIA FORT has been arrested for filming a protest of the church pastor that works as an ICE manager. SPREAD THE WORD! Georgia has been doing outstanding reporting from ground zero!

FREE GEORGIA FORT

RETURN LIAM RAMOS TO HIS MOTHER @amyklobuchar.com if you want to be governor I will vote for you if you personally go down to Texas and get Liam back.

Protect Georgia Fort!

FUCK ICE

I seem to recall a huge deal made about MPD when they have ever pursued a driver in the city and how that was a huge no-no and I think it appears someone else who does that pursuit should be charged accordingly but what do I know

Stella Carlson, the "woman in the pink coat," says she won't be intimidated. (Part 1 of 3)

I mean a lot of locals also cannot eat in restaurants because of this invasion so I’m gonna side with the locals having the actual issue an not the unwelcome “visitors”

No more fucks left to give.

people are always like “what link do i give to?!” one giant pile of money is actually not a great way to help people. people choosing a variety of places to give helps keep the money moving. no one org gets flooded to the point of breaking. a PTA, the mutual aid venmo, can move $ even faster.

please remember that no matter how many “ICE is losing in MN” articles you read today, there is still a very real, urgent, ongoing crisis in Minnesota. people need food and they need rent money. that has not changed.

Hoping the only horrible thing to ever happen on my birthday will be the Challenger exploding 😭

Just because some upper management is getting the shakeup doesn’t mean the actions directly affecting residents hasn’t become any better.

Deleting Signal now that I know it’s compromised. Find me on ICQ

Did y’all see that ICE OUT carved into Lake Nokomis in Mpls today? Apparently people filled it with luminaries so people on planes can see it at night

And they are getting paid lololol

The Atlantic Magazine just dropped a tremendous story on the Minnesota Resistance. The author is a war correspondent & sees the echoes of leaderless community empowerment around the globe: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202... (supposed to be a gift link, might not work, it’s in Apple News, too.)

Did I seriously just hear that having a finger maimed as being a violent-enough action that required an instant firing squad in response?

Pity the national reporters who flew in last night and are lined up outside the pickle bar in Nisswa in -9 waiting to talk to day drinkers.

“I live on a rural island in Alaska, reachable only by plane or boat. In our little town, 50 to 100 people stand outside each week at our town's roundabout to protest and hold vigil and stand in solidarity with you. We hold signs supporting Minnesota and demanding ICE Out.” Rachel, Alaska

The whole interview is worth it

This could have been me or a hundred people i know whose only crime is having a camera

HEY AMY DO YOU KNOW WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT AMY ITS THE EXPECTATION THAT ONCE AGAIN YOU WILL VOTE “PURPLE” AND HARM YOUR CONSTITUENTS AMY CAUSE YOU’VE SURE DONE THAT A LOT IN THE LAST YEAR AMY ITS REALLY GROSS AMY @klobuchar.senate.gov @amyklobuchar.com

HEY AMY DID YOU HEAR ABOUT YESTERDAY? THERE WAS A MASSIVE AND INCREDIBLE PROTEST AMY WHICH HAD TENS OF THOUSANDS OF US MARCHING OUTSIDE IN THE FRIGID COLD AMY AND MANY THEN WENT TO A RALLY AND YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE AMY @amyklobuchar.com @klobuchar.senate.gov

watching clips of coverage of yesterday’s actions and fucking furious about how many outlets ran it padded with ICE’s lies about taking 5yr old Liam Ramos because “his father abandoned him” they report that the mother “refused to take custody” leaving out they were trying to use him to detain her

We need sustained national coverage to amplify pressure on ICE thuggery. Your legal observing and videoing is really helping with that, as this pithy New York Times compendium shows: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Cruelty is their goal.

Crying when it is this cold is a conundrum ❤️

Help bring 2-Year-Old Chloe & Her Father Home. They were kidnapped today in South Minneapolis. With the permission of the mother, we are reaching out to raise funds for lawyer fee’s, food, bond requests, rent, livability, & resources to keep this family together. gofund.me/6295b51b3

HEY AMY DID YOU HEAR ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN MINNEAPOLIS AND THE TWIN CITIES??? MASKED MEN FUNDED BY THE FEDERAL GOVT ARE ASSAULTING PEOPLE INCLUDING MINORS AND KIDNAPPING THEM DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS IT SEEMS LIKE YOU DON’T QUITE UNDERSTAND @klobuchar.senate.gov @amyklobuchar.com

One of the taco trucks who serves on our patio (not the tues/fri, but more irregularly) reached out. The owner & his family have been unable to work for over a month and are struggling. We have confirmed this venmo. If you want to “buy lunch” from them, please do.

Argh how am I not actually finding the dang list of businesses joining the strike tomorrow? Halp!
