The Twin Cities' newest bus rapid transit line launches this weekend, with the E Line running between Southdale Center in Edina and the University of Minnesota.

It's the third BRT line Metro Transit has launched this year.
So long, Metro Transit Route 6; Hello, E Line, Metro Transit's new rapid bus line
The E Line will be the agency’s third such line to open this year.

Amongst the breathless accolades after yesterday’s presser, I think people are missing the most important part of what Minneapolis Chief O’Hara said: “police have been instructed to keep their riot gear with them at all times.”
Who would that be used against?!

Does Representative Koznick actually do anything in Lakeville or does he spend all his time trying to stop trains on the other side of the metro?

i really like the reoccuring american bit where we give everyone high student loans but give them an out by having our citizens participate in imperialism and/or facism
#ProudBlue

Just saw this commercial for #FuckIce

50,000 sign-on bonus PLUS student loan forgiveness, along with generous benefits.

The government has money for this but no money for healthcare.

It made me sick to my stomach 🤮

Fuck everybody who signs up to become a #FuckIce agent🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾

One thing to remember about Saturday’s snow: It will be all day light snow.

It will take A LONG TIME to reach the 3-5” forecast. We won’t hit it in the morning, we won’t be there by the afternoon, but we will get there by the time you go to bed.

Still looking like roughly 3" for Twin Cities, but ramping up quickly toward south. If storm slides north even slightly would push totals higher. Also, whatever comes is likely to drag into the middle portion of Saturday, so a slower accumulation VS earlier this week. #mnwx
Two winter storms will cause dangerous travel conditions across the northern tier of the country into the weekend. Here are the latest Key Messages for these storms.

Whatever one thought of it in the moment it's clear that a wide swath of Saint Paul residents have given SPPD a lot of good faith assumptions during an era when policing is under greater scrutiny. And I think today is gonna mark a major shift in that sentiment for a significant chunk of citizens.

Couldn’t afford to get arrested by ICE again today - someone has to pick up the kids when the husband is out of town. Standing in solidarity with neighbors who stand up against unjust laws. This is wrong @mayorher.bsky.social @mayorcarter.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov

Trump says he’s ending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somali refugees in Minnesota “immediately.”

In my lived experience of growing up in the suburbs (primarily Burnsville) more white people owned homes while more people of color lived in the apartment complexes. There were exceptions, of course, but many moving to car centric areas are not experiencing the American Dream
People keep saying "Americans prefer the suburbs so they can get away from people of color" but one of the main trends of US housing over the last four decades has been people of color reaching the middle class and moving to the suburbs. Because they want a house and a yard like almost everyone else
