Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

My favorite thing about New Year's: web.law.duke.edu/cspd/publicd...

Let’s simplify this issue:

Hey so this seems like something more people should be talking about 🤔 🗳️ www.npr.org/2025/10/23/n...

Jacob Frey: "If we are now at the point where the federal govt is deploying agents on legal American citizens with a goal of uprooting people who have formed lives here, have families here, started businesses here, definitively made Minneapolis a better place, everybody should be speaking out."

Hip-hop godfathers the Last Poets: ‘In times of great chaos, there’s opportunity’

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Here is a quietly unhinged weekend travel guide I wrote for @racketmn.com about visiting The Driftless Bluffs to watch the leaves change…but really you’re there to search for Pepie the Lake Monster :) racketmn.com/driftless-bl... Ian

Only the best people.

The #USPS is holding a vote to choose a stamp to reissue, and one of them is the “Emancipation Proclamation” stamp. Wouldn’t it be great if that one won by a landslide? #Vote online at www.stampsforever.com/vote The deadline is Sept 30th, please act now!

One of my favorite ingredients.

It's still summer, technically, but today begins our FALL MEMBER DRIVE and perhaps you may be aware that under our current regime, your voices are more crucial than ever! Learn more and pledge your support at KFAI.org/donate! And continue to tell your friends about Fresh Air!

The most meaningful new word in this timeline. Applicable almost everywhere.

This is a very weird situation in that it's the first time since FDR the press has a visibly ill, probably dying President -- so the first time in the modern media model -- and they seem completely unequipped to report on it. (also "they like him and want him to rule us like a king" factor, yes)

Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."

What's going to happen when iCE kidnaps soccer players from African and South American nations competing at the World Cup simply because ICE has a habit of profiling. Simply put, if the teams decide to go for a walk in between games, will they be picked up? Mark my words, this will be a reality.

No one would be confused about what's happening if you saw it in another country. No one.

Climate change is the main driver of this dystopian timeline.

And as I've pointed out a lot over the years: far right also means hypercapitalist

Tom Lehrer RIP. Read the entire thread on how he pranked the NSA (and invented Jell-O shots)

I can’t stop thinking about how the Access Hollywood tape came out before the election even happened, yet suddenly we have people concerned that the President might have lied about being a sexual predator who were totally fine with it when he told the truth about being a sexual predator very grim

Posted today by artist Brian Walsby. Hüsker Dü & Peanuts mashup prints available for you to buy. If you’re a fan of both, these are hard to pass up. First: Metal Circus and New Day Rising.

One of my least favorite aspects of this dystopian timeline.

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

New in PN: The worst chief justice of all time "American history has no shortage of legendarily bad chief justices and disgraceful decisions. But John Roberts has overseen the wholesale corruption and capture of the Supreme Court, and history should look back on his tenure with revulsion."

I know you’re new to Congress, Mr. Fine, but we don’t call our colleagues terrorists here. It just makes you look idiotic. At a time when MN Democrats have been targeted for assassination by a right-wing extremist, your rhetoric is seriously dangerous. Apologize now.

What a great idea. Not. And read on to learn that FEMA workers were getting harassed by MAGAts.

More stupid. People will die.

This is a pretty important point!

Treating a new Covid strain like a crime and not a public health issue is deranged.

Happy Memorial Day.

GOP Rep Mike Collins is an ignorant Islamophobic bigot. It’s undeniable. Plus Cha Street Food is amazing and everyone in Congress - including the ignorant Islamophobic bigots - should try it.
