I have a pile of tickets for tomorrow night.
Folks, DM me.
$30 ... they are decent upper-bowl seats.

I’m going to the wolves game today and tomorrow, and it just feels weird. Like I’m not allowed to go and just watch a basketball game.

Every business on Eat Street stepped up yesterday.
But Copper Hen astounded me. Doors were open before the first wave of response got to 26th & Nicollet. Offered refuge before even the first hit of gas from the invaders.
I have never actually been to Copper Hen.
But I'll be there regularly forever.

If you’d like to tangibly help Minnesota, let’s spread the word and donate where we can.
This is FAR more impactful than doomscrolling or angry posting fueling someone else’s doomscrolling.
No act of resistance is too small or insignificant.

Minnesota folks, if you can spend some time I suggest reading some of these entries. ICE wants us to be afraid, to feel overwhelmed, to feel isolated.
We are not alone. We have each other, and the whole rest of the world. There are SO MANY PEOPLE everywhere who see us, who know, who care.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

The people who'll tell you today's murder victim in Minnesota shouldn't have turned up to a protest carrying a gun are the same people who said Kyle Rittenhouse was perfectly entitled to do the same thing.

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

This is courage. Looking a masked, government fascist dead in the eye, face to face, knowing full well that your life is on the line.
If elected officials had 1/10th of Alex Pretti's resolve, we would have far fewer troubles.

Truly, most of our local media and reporters on the ground have been reporting the facts with eyes wide open and it's time for the rest of the media world to follow suit.

They’re saying the agent who shot Alex Pretti has been with BPD for 8 years. Jonathan Ross has been with ICE for 10.
This isn’t a “not enough training” issue, and if Democrats make “training” the core of their response to this then they are ICE collaborators.
Abolish ICE is the moderate position.
