Recognize PTSD as a form of neurodivergence.

The US Justice Department withheld testimony that Donald Trump sexually abused a girl when she was 13 or 14 - according to a source who viewed unredacted Epstein files. This is the worst scandal in US history and should be the biggest news story on the planet right now. www.npr.org/2026/02/24/n...

I have not watched any NHL games this season. I very happy about this. And it looks like I won't be watching any NHL games for the remainder of the Year. Seeing hockey players supporting a Child Rapist makes me want to puke🤮

I pay attention to hockey so I know many of the names of the players who did attend and now feel no obligation to support their teams in any way. Huh.

congrats to the mens hockey team for letting a demented 80 year old sex criminal steal your shine and make himself the center of your accomplishment

“Pope Leo XIV has urged priests to not to use artificial intelligence to write their homilies or to seek ‘likes’ on social media platforms like TikTok.” “‘To give a true homily is to share faith,’ and artificial intelligence ‘will never be able to share faith,’ the pope added.”

This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

Two female ICE agents popped the hood of their car and knocked on the door of a mechanic born in Mexico. He went out to help. “A bunch of agents jump out and tackle him, essentially restraining him, and take him away...His six kids are now without their father." www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

There is no drawdown. There is no retreat. ICE is just redistributing their assets to better avoid accountability.

MAJOR: Twin Cities Tenants joins five labor unions, together repping 25,900 members, to launch a rent strike drive, vowing to withhold rent March 1 if @governorwalz.mn.gov fails to deliver an eviction moratorium and rent relief. If launched, this would be the largest US rent strike in 100+ years.

This diagram has helped me realise that part of the reason so many corporate types are obsessed with AI is that all corporate speak was already incoherent babble anyway.

Mercado Central, a cooperative of small Central American businesses in Minneapolis, is still raising money to try to save itself from closure. It’s an institution and makes this community much richer. www.gofundme.com/f/help-save-...

Police departments across the US are quietly leveraging school district security cameras to assist Donald Trump’s mass immigration enforcement campaign, an investigation by @the74.bsky.social reveals.

"It’s not hard to see why ICE has expanded its reach beyond the Twin Cities. The qualities that have hindered ICE’s operation in Minneapolis and St. Paul — density and walkability; a large, almost exclusively left-of-center population — are absent here." www.theverge.com/policy/87871...

so many families are in awful positions because ICE’s bullshit has collapsed the already fragile social safety net. this family is living in their van in minnesota in winter. they’ve applied for help at over a dozen orgs and are still unhoused. with babies.

We continue to see no drawdown today with ICE activity in the Phillips neighborhood, Columbia Heights, and Shakopee. Our pressure is working as the Senate bill to fund DHS did not pass last night. Keep up the pressure by reaching out to your federal representatives.

Where's Canada's condemnation of the U.S. blockade to Cuba? Is this not an act of war under international law.....Also why not follow Mexico's lead and send emergency humanitarian aid to the Cuban people? Canadians expect better. www.msn.com/en-sg/news/o...

There are 70,000 people in DHS concentration camps. 3000 are children. Close the camps. Being our neighbors home.

CBP didn’t give her or anyone any water; she asked 3 times accg to other reports. CBP killed a 7yr old. “8 hours after the girl & her father were taken into custody, she began having seizures & her body temperature was measured at 105.7 degrees by emergency medical technicians. shorturl.at/d2OTJ

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

BREAKING: The Trump administraiton has committed a mass violation of ICE detainees' constitutional rights in MN, effectively blocking their acess to attorneys in the Whipple building, a judge ruled tonight. The judge: Trump appointeee Nancy Brasel storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It’s hard to overstate how mainstream defiance of the federal occupation of Minnesota is. This is from 5:00 yesterday at 50th and France. 50th and France! Minnesotans aren’t having this.

ICE agents knocked on Wilmer Andrade’s door claiming a warrant for his arrest. He has a work permit, a pending visa application and no final order of removal. In Operation Metro Surge, people like him are targets.

ICE’s occupation is still making normal life impossible for everyone in Minneapolis. A little money goes a long way towards helping businesses to weather disruption, captives to get out of the ICE camps, families to stay together. www.standwithminnesota.com

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.** He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family. “He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.
