Minnesota Republicans want to criminalize "residential protesting." These are the same Republicans cheering on masked secret police engaging in routine violations of the 4th amendment.

‘Residential protesting’ could be a crime in Minnesota under new GOP proposal
A bill that’s backed by a coalition of GOP lawmakers set to be proposed at the start of the upcoming session would make “residential protesting" punishable under Minnesota law.

An amazing day on Long Lake! #MNStrong
When we stand together, we are impossible to ignore!

In just 5 days of grassroots coordination—nearly 400 people came together to literally stand up to ICE, spelling out MN STRONG on the icy surface of Long Lake, raising $10k for families affected by ICE activity/separation. WE ARE #MNstrong

Dear critics of Lindsey Vonn: Kindly shut up and go back to your couch.

Grit isn't defined by the result—it’s revealed by the effort. Resilience isn't seen in a fall—it’s shown in the resolve to bounce back.

Success is more than the finish. It's the distance traveled to the start.

Portland mayor:

"To those who continue to work for ICE: Resign. To those who control this facility: Leave.

"To those who continue to make these sickening decisions, go home, look in a mirror, and ask yourselves why you have gassed children..."

This exactly. They never cared before and they never will. It's a tax savings for them, they never considered it a stable business.
I still can’t believe how many people aren’t seeing how this is a gigantic “we’d rather see it die because we never respected it in the first place” this is from the NBA/WNBA side.

I’m sure there’s owners in the coalition that want this to be over but all of this feels so fueled by grievance.
Increasingly coming around to the idea that the WNBA would rather do lasting damage to the league’s financial position if it meant breaking labor and keeping costs down

Minnesota may be known for our lakes, Bob Dylan, and Prince - but our civic engagement runs deeper.

If Donald Trump intended to make an example out of Minnesota, then I am damn proud of that example.

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.

ICE has detained children as young as five, including this little boy, Liam.

No 5-year-old makes us unsafe. Targeting children - our babies - is beyond the pale.

ICE is completely out of control and beyond fixing.

The animating force at the heart of US conservatism currently is incandescent rage at the mere idea of women's autonomy and independence. An image of a smiling woman who looks insufficiently deferential for their tastes riles them up enough to tear up the social contract.
this is all it’s really about for them. Not domestic policy, not “economic anxiety”, just an endless desire to punish stand-ins for the Mommy who forced them take a bath, even if it tanks their own quality of life.
