It comes so easy to her while most of the rest of them can’t form a sentence. It’s why she should run for president.
AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.

I used to spend so much money there
From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

what trust
State and local law enforcement know the communities they serve. They’ve built the trust and know how to keep us safe.
As Minnesotans express their first amendment rights, I encourage you to remain peaceful and know that local law enforcement has one goal in mind: your safety.

Finally, an AI assistant for your off grid adventures, as long as they're actually on grid because this needs data. When I asked the PR guy what this personal assistant does his answer was that it answers questions like a chatbot. I guess while you're hiking somewhere within cell range.

The anti-pedestrianization folks are sending emails telling us to vote against "permanent closures". Make sure that the other commissioners hear your voice and support!
Minneapolis people: If you support opening parkways to people on occasion - share your support by noon today by emailing OpenTime@minneapolisparks.org or attend this evening's park board meeting.
Thanks to @olsenforparks.bsky.social for helping support this measure.

And let’s be clear — this is by design. They’ve been forthright about that. The aim is to make it migrants suffer so much that they give up their due process rights and leave voluntarily.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

This is what oligarchy looks like:
If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break.
If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry.
Obscene.
