My wife was talking to a friend from Wyoming last night whose pastor (Unitarian) is among them.

Only a matter of time until these religious leaders are described as “paid outside agitators”.

Oh look! That thing that every Minnesotan said was bullshit turned out to be bullshit.

ICE just keeps on lying
BREAKING: DOJ moves to drop criminal charges in alleged shovel/broom attack in Minneapolis that led ICE to open fire. "Newly discovered evidence in this matter is materially inconsistent with the allegations in the Complaint Affidavit," prosecutors say. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Not activism. This is just neighbors taking care of neighbors.
Amazing numbers for activism in Minnesota

Q: "Since December, have you participated in any neighborhood group discussions, either in-person, by phone, or online, in response to federal law enforcement activity in your area?"

Minneapolis/St Paul, 49% said yes

Sometimes very hard not to feel like the rest of the country has abandoned Minnesota. We STILL have ICE everywhere. Our schools, businesses, and economy are in profound crisis. But without Bovino here throwing tear gas, much of the country seems to not care at all what’s being done to us.

this is a subject that's near and dear to my heart

1. no you didn't, you retconning fucks

2. your decades of anti-governance "free market" "government never functions" propaganda paved the way for the complete authoritarian decimation of labor, consumer, environmental protections

Years ago, a friend asked me why billionaires want MORE money when they could never spend the tiniest fraction of what they have.

My answer is that they want immunity. The immunity to do literally any horrific they want without consequence.

Nothing I've seen since has changed my mind.

This is extremely offensive and inappropriate. I don’t care how popular it is in bars, dwarf-tossing is degrading and NOT OKAY.

I only just realized that this awesomeness comes from
one of my favorite Comic Artists. His Darth Vader is not to be missed, but this might just now be my favorite work of his.
When I saw pictures of Liam Ramos with his Spidey backpack and bunny hat, I felt an overwhelming responsibility as someone who works in superhero comics. Please do check out the art in #Comics4Liam and visit comics4liam.com to support Liam and groups helping other immigrants like him. ❤️💪🐇

Seems real bad that the end point of ~25 years of War on Terror architecture is an agency of thin-skinned goons who will send armed men to your house if you email the government asking for compassion on behalf of someone else.

Palantir needs to be obliterated the same as ICE, and Peter Thiel can face the Truth and Reconciliation committee he’s spent his entire life trying to negate.

If we want to fix our country, this is non-negotiable.

Minnesotan here. The sound of whistles used to be annoying. Now, it’s the sound of neighbors looking out for neighbors. The only people traumatized by this are the occupiers, and frankly, fuck them.
Ugh. The main anti-ICE group in Washington which has 44k followers on Facebook and has been going around to communities promoting classes is now promoting this anti-whistle nonsense for "harm reduction" reasons as well.
