Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

NEW: China is testing a megawatt-scale airborne wind system that captures stronger high-altitude winds, potentially producing up to 10× more energy with 40% less material and 30% lower costs. It could also be quickly deployed to supply emergency power after disasters.

If you enjoy that, it's fine. But typing "stop" to any campaign text will remove you from that campaign (doesn't mean they won't hit you up for the next campaign of course). And "stop" is much quicker
Courtney, I started doing this with the annoying Cuomo fundraising texts, and it brings me joy.
my favorite hobby (started with Cuomo) is to send increasingly offensive texts to terrible candidates who think they can make fundraising appeals to me. it usually gets me removed from mailing lists faster than trying to unsubscribe 😉

The shooting in Minnesota is a reminder that while authoritarian governments may justify abuses of power by directing them at scapegoats or vulnerable populations, the goal is ultimately to deploy them against anyone they wish to www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

the point of naming names isn't to be personal or punitive, it's that they clearly just don't understand the enemy & can't lead the fight against them

Trump ‘Alarmists’ Were Right. We Should Say So.
Commentators who got it wrong wouldn’t listen, won’t learn, and can’t lead.

It's like they were born yesterday. Remember when Biden wasn't allowed to forgive student loans?
This one paragraph’s assumption that the Roberts Court would show the same deference to a new Dem Admin as it does for Trump is the entire essay’s load-bearing pillar, and boy oh boy it collapses upon the slightest touch

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.
