Do you know how bad you have to fuck up to radicalize St. Cloud?

IMMIGRATION IS FANTASTIC ACTUALLY
"I slutet av januari presenterade två forskare på DN Debatt att de hade utfört en stor enkätundersökning, där 82 procent av de svarande kommunerna menade att ett fortsatt flyktingmottagande bidrar positivt till kommunens utveckling. Bara 2 procent ansåg att det bidrog negativt."
Ledare: Spanien välkomnar nästan en miljon migranter – Sverige borde inspireras
I Sverige talar man nu nästan enbart om invandrare som ett problem. Men vi behöver ha en seriös konversation om migration.

If you’ve ever worked on a campaign, you know that’s definitely not the norm.

If you haven’t… ask your local candidates what they pay their staff and if they pay their interns.

Very glad this is being introduced but $20 is frankly the bare minimum!

We pay our campaign staff a minimum wage of $25/hr because that’s where we think the minimum wage should be. People deserve to thrive, not just survive.

I hope they hear the sound of whistles and car horns in their nightmares every single night for the rest of their lives.
It is so funny that ICE keeps lining up truckloads of officers to just get trapped in traffic, roll up to a house, and immediately be surrounded by a dozen people blowing whistles and telling them their moms don't love them. Imagine waking up at 5AM and your boss assigns you to endure The Daily Hate

look this is just a whole branding problem, what if we just called them roundabouts?

filter blockades: scary, bad, confusing, american
roundabouts: less threatening, already exist in places here, vaguely british
My experience with the filter blockades is that they actually improve safety and keep traffic flowing at a safe speed.
Keeping streets clear is critical to protect lives and property. Blocked streets & makeshift checkpoints are serious concerns for emergency responders as they can delay response times & restrict access. Neighbors have echoed the City’s public safety concerns about this. Let’s keep our streets open.

Was driving by a Minneapolis school around the time they were to let out when ICE agents were circling the area.

Was stuck in traffic in front of the school and saw what looked like school officials outside telling each other they were holding students inside until the area was clear.

Some steps Gov. Walz could take to mend the situation:

- Eviction moratorium
- The arrest of federal officers breaking and entering without a warrant
- Strategically deploying the National Guard to hot spots
- Literally anything

I hate how little this woman cares for her constituents.

At this rate, I think she actively wants a good portion of us dead.
I met with the Board of the Minnesota State Association of Narcotics Investigators to discuss how we can better protect Minnesotans. We must ensure law enforcement has the resources they need to take on the dangerous drugs like meth and fentanyl.

Tonight at 8:30 PM our constituent Ricky was pepper sprayed by ICE on 18th & Polk. 2 agents parked their car, got out and approached observers, started pepper spraying Ricky on public property, and then drove away and left.

Nothing is changing on the ground in Minnesota. ICE must be abolished.

DID YOU KNOW?

If you have Delta Sky Miles, you can donate them to help a kidnapped-and-released person fly home!

They are set free on the streets of El Paso or another Texas town with no phone, no money, nothing at all. Your miles can get them back to their loved ones!

Maybe the best example of the "We Keep Us Safe" ethos in a time of widespread injustice is Mayor Frey's PAC putting in a plug for his personal legal defense fund.

5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his family are facing unprecedented hurdles. Unfortunately, the federal government is attempting to expedite the removal of his family. This is retaliation. Our community, neighbors, and children deserve better.

brenda short doesn’t really understand the difference between the US senate and the minnesota state senate. she thought that senators work in washington and the senate is in st. paul, and that is was peggy flanagan who was confused and needing to reprint her lit, not brenda
2025 minneapolis mayoral candidate and 2021 ward 9 candidate brenda short is back and she is running for minnesota state senate in SD62 challenging omar fateh, but her lit from caucus night on tuesday said “US senate.” this was an error

Basically, the second bit was that you’re never going to recover your car insurance deductible to fix the window they smashed if you go to court on your own, but when all of this is over, there will be bigger civil suits
