Dear neighbor,
We are seeing an increase in immigration enforcement and federal agents across South Minneapolis. This includes the sighting of Bovino at 34th and Cedar. There’s definitely an uptick compared to the last few days. 1/

My governor and federal reps should be holding press confs and going on tv telling people that one of the largest school districts is closed because of a federal gov’t-led ethnic cleansing campaign run by armed, masked goons who are brutalizing citizen observers and disappearing non-white neighbors.
This is the type of thing that I want my statewide-elected and federal officials to push back against. We are seeing the creation of a pretext for bringing in troops in real time and no one with the power to get an audience is standing up for us to tell America all of it is a fiction.

This guy is smart, I’ve seen him be smart on other topics. The changing political situation and the extremely different roles and jurisdictions of responsibility are obvious differences in the two situations that he is capable of pointing out. Not sure what’s going on here.
The pivot from "Mamdani is a political genius for focusing his message almost entirely on affordability" to "Schumer is a political moron for focusing his message almost entirely on affordability" is odd.

Obviously the Greenland thing is insane and evil, but this child level analysis is not doing us any favors
Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.
And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

The twin cities’ hospitality economy is being decimated rn. Local productivity across every sector is fucked, people are tired, distracted, anxious, nervous systems fried.
This isn’t pro-business, it’s not good for GDP, it’s not making anyone safer (quite the opposite), and it’s not ending soon.
