just a reminder: if fire hydrants near where you live are buried in snow after this week’s storms, it’s a mitzvah (and a gooooood workout!) to dig out around that hydrant so fire crews can get to it faster if need be.

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

And all have broken that promise.

I have “The Surrey with the Fringe on Top” from “Oklahoma!” running through my brain right now and I have no idea why. Hope Shirley Jones is OK.

Timezones are so weird. Australia is in 2026, Canada is in 2025, and the United States is in 1939.

As a mother, my heart goes out to Caroline Kennedy in the loss of her daughter, Tatiana Schlossberg. She was only 35. I can’t imagine that loss. Blessings on all who loved her. 💐

Minnesota Introvert secret: you can say I’m Fond of You to a neighbor by snowblowing their driveway after a storm without ever talking to them. In the summer, leave a basket of fresh blueberry muffins, ring the doorbell and run!

Context you rarely hear: global stocks are up about 30% over the past year. U.S. stocks? Around 18%. That means American investors underperformed the world by about 12 percentage points, even while headlines called it a “fantastic year.”

A lot of social media is of Reiner reminiscing: those touched by film work as well as his social justice sense in All in the Family. Friends & fans are sharing photos and recounting the Reiners’ profound impact on the world. It feels like a group hug. It’s consoling. We’re sitting shiva virtually.

Just heard about Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. OMG. I’m in shock. I just love Rob’s work! I can believe our beloved Meathead is gone. The list of movies he’s directed is so impressive: This is Spinal Tap, When Harry Met Sally, Princess Bride, A Few Good Men, Misery, Stand by Me, and many more.

When this is all over, I hope Kilmer Abrego Garcia sues the pants off anyone who aided and abetted his nightmare.

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

About a dozen detainees were led out onto the tarmac at MSP airport on Friday and whisked away to Omaha.

The flight comes amid a surge in ICE activity targeting Somalis and Latinos in the Twin Cities.

They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

Mr. and Mrs. Miller are perfect for each other. I don’t know when I’ve seen a better match.
Stephen Miller’s Wife @katiemiller : “Can you cite the statute that makes the boat bombings illegal?”

I’m sick. On Thanksgiving. Came on suddenly; some norovirus probably. Thinking of food right now isn’t advisable.
