Stares from Minneapolis.
DHS spending bill passed 220-207

7 Democrats voted in favor:
Henry Cuellar
Don Davis
Laura Gilles
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Jared Golden
Vicente Gonzalez
Tom Suozzi

Massie voted No
Andy Harris didn't vote

Might not have passed if every Democrat voted No, but leadership wasn't whipping them to do so

That was a LOUD deck pop.

The toy store has my vote too
In a primary between Klobuchar and a toy store, I’d vote for the toy store.
We wrote a letter to @amyklobuchar.com.

We need her to start fighting for Minnesotans.

There is no level to which these heartless shit-for-brains won’t stoop to inflict cruelty and suffering.

Today I told a construction worker assisting ICE to "suck my dick."
Better than therapy.

Feels like -25° F and that is far from the scariest thing we are facing in Minneapolis right now. Stay safe. Stay warm. Keep up the good fight.

Hi everyone -- there is a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow to protest what the Trump administration and DHS are doing to our community. In solidarity with the action, I am going to donate my revenue from tmrw's newsletter to People over Papers, the Midway-Hamline Diaper Bank, & Every Meal. (1/2)

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.

Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

I just got home from a site where ICE has three roofers trapped.

it is COLD cold in minnesota and getting colder, please help if you can
We are in fact DESPERATE for winter coats, waterproof gloves, and good boots. We get so many wonderful donations but it is so cold and the numbers of unhoused unsheltered people are going up at the absolute worst time for it, and we run out of coats weekly.
The frigid Twin Cities temperatures will hurt the homeless; so do not gloat about the impact on ICE without also stepping up here:

Yesterday, I drove refugees that had been shipped off to Texas all the way back home to St. Paul

Seeing them reunite with their families reminded me this is their home.

So keep sending them to Texas. I’ll keep driving ‘em back and introducing them to Bucc-ee’s and KC barbecue along the way.

I keep thinking about how we haven’t seen minors boarding the dedicated deportation flights here at MSP; how many kids are the commercial airlines at Minneapolis - St. Paul International flying to detention camps, and which airlines are they?

I said if people gave to help a dear family with rent (@jessica-shortall Venmo) I’d tell you interesting things I’ve learned by moving to Minnesota.
Y’all are still giving so here goes:

Paraphrasing @jasonkirk.fyi here but if you’re gonna fill my childhood with Sunday School stories about loving the weak and poor don’t blame me if I paid attention and took those lessons to heart.
Ben Luhmann, who filmed this, is one of the two high schoolers from a conservative Christian family I rode along with in Chicago when they were searching for ICE agents there.

When I asked him how his faith informed his efforts to document ICE/DHS, he told me this. religionnews.com/2025/11/25/h...
