This is a must-read post.
America is outraged after ICE killed two white people in Minneapolis.

I understand why folks are feeling afraid and angry right now. But I need you to understand something just as clearly: this is what Black America has been living with for generations.

An alternate ending to being encased in 6 inches of ice would be nice. Until then Alternate Ending Jigawatt APA at Casual Pint, Falls Church VA. #craftbeer #bskybeer

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.

They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

Yes. We have to harden the polling place and this is the way you do it.

These words demand attention.

“In a real sense this is holy ground, consecrated by blood spilled here. The cost is high, and so I had to be here to stand in the very place where this tragedy unfurled… I think we’re at a defining moment for our country…” ~ Rev Warnock

Take a moment, so much more…

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Are we at a turning point innthsi struggle?

Maybe.

It all depends on whether we keep up the pressure. Keep speaking truth to power. Loudly. Forcefully. Relentlessly.

Lol sometimes this admin actually does tell the truth (by accident of course)! 😂
Since I’m on roll with KKKaroline…I had to steal this from my girl, Brittany. The backdrop speaks volumes! It’s what this administration does, oh so well.

6+ inches of snow encased in at least an inch of ice. And no highs above 32° for at least a week. It will be a while before I can get off my street.

These days getting reliable news that really drills down to facts is hard to do. So here is who I read daily, and they are not all liberal/left sources:

- Heather Cox Richardson
- Contrarian
- Qasim Rashid
- The Economist
- Guardian
- Philadelphia Inquirer

All in my view are reliable & not MSM.

Used half of this in my snow chili recipe but the rest is “chef’s reward.” @portcitybrew.bsky.social Porter is the perfect addition to my chili in my experience. Makes the flavor really pop. #bskybeer #winterchili
