“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.

I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

The exhaustion you feel right now?
The heavy sadness that you can’t seem to shake?
The sense of dread that hovers over you like a drone?
The scalding rage bubbling just beneath the surface?
This is all by design.
This is these f*ckers’ master plan…

Today’s GOP doesn’t want votes, it wants power. That’s why they gerrymander, purge voters, and pack courts. It’s not about democracy—it’s about dominance. If we don’t call it what it is—minority rule enforced by fear—we’re sleepwalking into tyranny.

Mark Hortman was a selfless husband and a dedicated father. He always put his family above himself and everyone who knew him knew that he was Melissa’s rock.

He was a great friend to Gwen and me, and we will miss him deeply.

Did congress authorize these unconstitutional antics to appease Stephen Miller? Who’s paying for the Bounties?
@tedlieu.bsky.social Congress must investigate 1) where did all of the plain clothes ICE agents come from, 2) are they being paid a bounty, and 3) when was this authorized.
These soulless people see this as a lucrative business for “doing what they love” (his words not mine.)

You know who else had that same energy? Slave catchers in the late 17th and 18th centuries.

It’s easy to get lost in a crowd. Everyone saying that impeachment can’t happen.

But you’re better than that 😉

Difficult things CAN be done. We just have to say “enough.” in unison. Enough lawbreaking. Enough cruelty. Enough games. Enough whims.

Enough.

Impeach!

Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman.

She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

Very sad day today in Minnesota. Violent rhetoric creates violent acts. Democrats are not the enemy.
I’ve activated the State Emergency Operations Center.

Local law enforcement in Champlin and Brooklyn Park have the full resources of the State of Minnesota behind them.

We are monitoring the situation closely and will share more information soon.
