@klobuchar.senate.gov you think this can be reformed?
Fucking surreal that people dressed like this and carrying assault rifles are permitted to kidnap people off our streets

No, Cynthia Nixon caused a sensation by appearing in The Real Thing and Hurlyburly at the same time and commuting between them on her bicycle.

What Nick Shirley caused was people getting killed.

Please make a note of it.
As an influencer, Nick Shirley had struggled to expand his reach. But after a missionary trip pushed him to try a new approach, he caused a sensation with a video claiming to expose fraud at Somali-run day care centers in Minnesota. nyti.ms/45GzJi4

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I have the need to comment this in response to @klobuchar.senate.gov so often I created a macro for it
“And that’s why I will vote to abolish ICE at every opportunity”. This rot cannot be reformed or retrained. You have to start over.

One of the stories that makes me the saddest out of this ICE invasion is one out of the Minnesota Star Tribune today about ICE agents eating at a little Mexican restaurant in the small town of Willmar, Minn, —and then, when they were done, arresting some of the workers.

Again I say into the void: stop saying the ICE officer had no time to think. Time doesn’t start when the drama starts. They drove up. They walked up. They engaged. Stop saying there is only reflex, no thought. If so, stop arming ambulatory startle reflexes & calling them cops

You lying piece of shit. I chaired the Minnesota DFL for all three of your runs here. I watched you lose. Three times. Minnesota never bought your con. And now, as Chair of the DNC, I’m looking forward to ending Trumpism for good in 2028 — not with lies, but with votes. Again.
Trump: "I feel I won Minnesota. I think I won it all three times. Nobody has won it since Richard Nixon won it many many years ago. I won it all three times in my opinion. It's a corrupt state ... I did so well in that state. The people were crying every time after."

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.

And trans lives are grounded in reality.

We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

It's important for prominent Democrats, especially those running for president, to loudly promise they'll throw the full weight of the DOJ into prosecuting illegal acts committed by Trump officials during his administration. If people fear a prison cell, they're more likely to abandon the GOP.

@amyklobuchar.com per my voicemails…
The thing about a lot of these never Trump Republicans is that, unlike a lot of institutionalist Dems who think the fever will break and we can all return to comity or whatever, these guys saw the rot up close and know the only appropriate response is to tear them out of government root and branch.
If you had told me in 2012 that Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign manager would be posting like this 13 years later i would not have believed you

Every voter in Illinois’ Ninth deserves to see this and to be able to choose which candidate really has a pro-peace agenda: the person stoking the flames of a US-Iran war (Laura Fine) or the person who has been outspoken against these escalations from the start (Kat Abughazaleh).

I support Israel’s right to defend itself against an existential threat from Iran, whose regime leads a terror empire and violates nuclear nonproliferation commitments. Diplomacy has failed to halt Iran’s nuclear ambitions. If Israel’s actions delay Iran’s nuclear breakout, we are all safer.

@startribune.com this Minnesotan would like to hear from them, maybe you will have more luck getting a statement because their staffers never answer questions from constituents.
i would like some political reporter - any political reporter - to get one of the following reps on the record about mike lee and bernie moreno's comments:
- brad finstad
- tom emmer
- michelle fischbach
- pete stauber

both finstad and emmer served with her. ask them what they think of these lies.
It’s not just Mike Lee — Bernie Moreno is pretending that a registered Republican evangelical anti-abortion Trump voter who assassinated a Democrat and had more on his hit list is a representative of “the extreme left”

@amyklobuchar.com @smith.senate.gov now THIS is how your constituents want you to do it
I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

On one hand: individual instances of guys on a burning car. On the other: mass state-sanctioned kidnappings of your neighbors — moms and dads, high school kids and farmworkers — all funded by your taxes. Don't trust any smug politician or media person who focuses on the first more than the second.
