And this was interestingly unanimous— and not being that well reflected yet in the offerings from actual Dem politicians. Word to the wise

And MPD is collecting historic overtime payouts and for what? They didn’t stop any murders and schools were raided.

Let me tell you a tale of how completely the normies have been mobilized. My 14 year-old niece has done School of Rock for the past 5 years; last summer she was part of their touring band, and the kids loved playing together so much that they decided to keep doing it. (1/?)

On Presidents’ Day, I’m proud to celebrate our President - by which of course I mean Minneapolis City Council President Elliott Payne.

AOC speaking in Berlin on Bad Bunny's performance at the Halftime show:

"Just putting those values on television, felt counter cultural rebellious resistant, and that I think speaks so much to the moment that we are in that it was defiant."

I feel this way about pretty much all vaccine-preventable infectious diseases. You shouldn't be allowed to dump cyanide into municipal drinking water and you shouldn't be allowed to recreationally spread viruses around shared public spaces.
My most authoritarian opinion is that the MMR vaccine should be mandatory, with only medical (not religious or floofy) exemptions allowed. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Jacob: increases police size and budget every year for 8 years, no safeguards for OT abuse or lawsuits eating city funds

Council: we thought those were bad ideas, but we are where we are, can we do something about this crisis today?

Jacob: help my city budget it's dying because the council

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

ICE invasion made an epic use case for anarchists and abolition.
Just a big hug to all the anarchists in the Twin Cities who get dismissed all the time but knew exactly what to do when shit went down here.

I am wary of any politicians doing a victory lap today before we’ve seen on the ground that ICE has left. Their surety makes me think that they negotiated something and I think they owe it to us to be as transparent as possible about what that is.

In just a few moments, I will vote against the so-called SAVE America Act and I am a strong no. That's because this bill would place unnecessary burdens on millions of women and eligible citizens to register to vote and make their voices heard. It is un-American & undermines our democracy.

As a fucking parent TALK TO YOUR FUCKING KIDS THEN. Worried they'll see porn? Talk to them about porn. Worried they'll see gore? Talk to them about gore. Worried they'll get groomed? Talk to them about red flags and cultivate trust with them so they won't feel they have to hide things from you.
"As a parent, I am deeply concerned about what my child is accessing online. Albeit not enough to check or to install some very basic software that would prevent them from accessing dodgy material online. That's why the Online Safety Act is so important."

Great to have the West St. Paul City Council join Minneapolis, St. Paul and Roseville in calling for an eviction moratorium so no family is forced to choose between making rent and risking being kidnapped by ICE.

Governor Walz is choosing not to stop evictions for our neighbors in hiding from ICE.

"Why do you have to bring politics into everything you do?" I dunno. Maybe because YOU POLITICIZED EVERYTHING ABOUT MY EXISTENCE. I would LOVE to not think about politics, but it's a privilege that has been taken from me.

Quick reminder everything they say is a fucking lie.

We are facing a major healthcare crisis due to the occupation.

Pregnant people are regularly missing care & do face an impossible choices.

Occupying agents ABSOLUTELY enter hospitals for enforcement purposes and have since they arrived.
