Two federal raids today in the same case. Lake Street in Minneapolis gets an armored vehicle assault. Bloomington gets the stereotypical agents in FBI windbreakers.

I would laugh so hard if the anti-tariff TikToks are what break the camel's back and get Trump to actually ban TikTok
it actually is a bad idea to allow a foreign power with whom we have at best a frenemy relationship a direct pipe into our national braindrip but, look, I’m not getting my policy preferences on anything here, let me enjoy this

I just spoke with Homeland Security to get more information and I will share when I learn more.

The University of Minnesota is an international destination for education and research. We have any number of students studying here with visas, and we need answers.

You guys keep wanting to touch the stove. I'm telling you we can't touch the stove. What we can do is recreate it. We recreate stove touching in the aggregate.

The easy way out of this was in November. The way out of this now is years of grinding struggle. Lock in.
democracy in michigan and wisconsin was crushed to the point of near-irreversibility until 2020 -- vastly worse than what trump seems likely to be able to do before 2028 -- and we fought back, inch by inch, until we took it back, despite Republicans having both structural advantages and real support
I have no respect for any of these people that just doom post all day when the exact path to turning back the clock on democratic backsliding can be seen in Michigan and Wisconsin. But they don't want to deal in factuals, only hyperbolic hypotheticals

I think an American flag created entirely by black men at the Superbowl is one of the best pieces of art I've seen in my lifetime. I hope it actually killed some folks. And I hope it finally closes the fucking book on the argument that we shouldn't use the flag to fight the God damned fascists.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment.

I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face.

And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

I honestly do think that a big draw of Catholicism for far right converts is aesthetic —the outfits and incense, the morbid relics of skulls and stuff. It’s the same draw as the interest in Norse mythology: old, death obsessed, appealing to a vengeful supernatural authority, imagined as only white.
