And here is the apple link for the latest Wolves pod with Dane. Plenty of positive energy, as befits the team right now. I am pro status quo at the trade deadline.

It is a "federal" occupation. When Trump couldn't use the usual armed forces or National Guard to occupy and control big cities. He created his own quasi-military force to occupy cities and impose his will.
This is about so much more than immagration.

As the federal occupation of Minnesota results in more and more fear and violence, I'm having a hard time posting about both the Timberwolves and the fall of Democracy at the same time.
Expect me to be more focused on trying to help save democracy in the days and weeks to come.

We had about 250 people show up for our community gathering and vigil for Renee Good, in Brainerd tonight.
I stopped at The Pit Stop in Brainerd on the way home to watch the Timberwolves vs Spurs.

Just listened to this powerful 15 minute commentary that focuses on the abuse of power and distortion of reality that is coming from the most powerful people in our country at this moment and asks "Are you really OK with this?"
This is long, about 15 minutes, but it's a pretty gutsy and honest reaction to Good's murder from a national sports talk celebrity, Nick Wright. Maybe take a minute with it.

They hate Minnesota because we are a people who believe that "we all do better when we all do better."
Minnesota is one of the wealthiest, safest, and cleanest states in the country *because* of our openness and generosity.
Our quality of life is a direct challenge to their zero-sum worldview.

Mitch and I got there at 1:15, shortly before the march started. Made our way to the front of the rally a mile down Lake Street.
Walked back that mile so we could get a sense of the crowd… tail end hadn’t even started moving yet with tons of people waiting.
10,000+ people easy.

Sending lots of love to the Twin Cities and all of Minnesota right now. A place that has been so incredibly welcoming to us, by some of the kindest people on Earth. The soccer community in MN is like no other, and we stand in solidarity with all the people pushing back on this immense cruelty. ❤️

We didn’t actually bike anywhere but it was beautiful.
The @joyfulridersclub.bsky.social has a ride planned tonight. We considered cancelling, as a silly bike ride feels trivial with everything going on, but we thought people might want some togetherness and community and joy tonight. Join us if you feel up to a ride. 6 p.m., Fulton Beer.
