I guess this might not be obvious to folks who aren’t in DC/regular attendees, but: The KC is a gorgeous venue. It is not run down, and certainly is not remotely in need of the kind of complete renovation that would require shutting it down for two years.

Anyone with a heart and soul should agree that children and babies do not belong behind bars. Thousands of kids will carry a lifetime of trauma and PTSD, done in our name, funded by our tax dollars.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Absolutely insane participation, made me feel so optimistic and brightened my friend’s and my Saturday.

The parade went on for 10-15 minutes of non-stop bikers! 🫶

Federal "agents" do not double as judges.
And these three did not commit any "crimes" punishable by death in our country.
Abolish ICE in MN and countrywide.

This thread to see one of the many detailed lies promulgated by one of the trump/rfk jr "leaders" of our federal health & medical agencies
I have been watching this Livestream.

Lots of interesting topics with loads of misinformation, poor policy development, and evidence of selection bias.

Here is a minor, insignificant point that still drove me nuts.

It looks like there may be a livestream on YouTube.

To summarize:

Most important

Max Perutz was NOT an example of someone with a great idea who went against the establishment wisdom to solve an important problem that he had uniquely identified.

He was part of an organized team working on this problem. He got lots of help.

The fact that *both* of the churches that have made news in Minneapolis for pro-ICE links/positions have ties to the Doug Wilson-verse (which, for those keeping track, is who oversees the church Sec. Pete Hegseth now attends) feels like evidence that the universe's writers are just getting lazy.
Via @bmietana.bsky.social: Cities Church in Minnesota is considering legal options after anti-ICE protest.

A surprising detail in here: Joe Rigney, author of the book "Sin of Empathy," is calling himself a founding pastor of this church. religionnews.com/2026/01/20/c...

Are you F-ing KIDDING ME?! @Donlemonbsky has been arrested by the DOJ?! Exercising your first amendment constitutionally “protected” right gets you locked up, exercising your 2nd gets you killed, and actual murder… well in uniform, gets you nothing!
