More than a week before his crucifixion by Roman law enforcement, Jesus of Nazareth infuriated other authorities as he overturned vendor tables at the temple farmers market and cursed at an innocent fig tree causing it to wither, according to newly unearthed videos. Watch here.

For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL:

When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

Imagine being a congressman from Minnesota and caring so little about what’s happening here that you just copy and paste talking points.

If you’re not writing your own statements and you’re not holding town halls, what exactly are we paying you for?

I'm gonna level with you, I think the most lasting impact of this is that white people are gonna be around white people in MN and then one racist white person is gonna say something fucked up about this and catch hands from another white person with PTSD. 1000% #1 impact.

The 2029 Pretti Good Act will establish a commission to identify all agents, create a detailed accounting of all acts, and hold criminally liable as necessary. Agents who voluntarily and truthfully disclose will be granted some leniency, provided their crimes did not include murder or torture.
When I say this agency [ICE and CBP] CAN’T be reformed this is why.

This statement is soft af. Doesn't even mention ICE. Support small business who have been speaking out, doing mutual aid, out on the streets. Support those who share your values and it inspires their action.
MINNESOTA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE: “.. With yesterday’s tragic news, we are calling for an immediate deescalation of tensions and for state, local and federal officials to work together to find real solutions.”

“Not taking a side,” is, indeed, taking a side. You also might want to check with your sales office. Pretty sure most of your ticket sales are people in the metro, not Nisswa

INBOX: 60+ CEOs of Minnesota-based company call for "an immediate deescalation of tensions and for state, local and federal officials to work together to find real solutions."

No mention of ICE in the letter.

I did some digging on that ActBlue account using Alex Pretti’s execution as a fundraiser and I have some damning conclusions for @democrats.org & @actblueorg.bsky.social.

Let’s get into it.
Renee Good and Alex Pretti were both American citizens.

Both were shot and killed by Donald Trump’s federal agents.
ICE's latest victim has been identified as 37-year-old nurse Alex Pretti of south Minneapolis.

He was a U.S. citizen.

You have state cops and city cops. Arrest the man who did this. Trump will not pull ICE out of the city because they are doing exactly what he wants them to do. That execution video will be shared with glee across right wing social networks. You are unfit to handle this crisis, Governor.
I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Amy just days ago voted to confirm a full on MAGA Trump judge.

She is also not doing anything publicly to lead and organize against Congressional Democratic Leaders who are scheming with Republicans to pour in more money into ICE.

This is craven, performative bullshit from a Democratic Senator.
Today we marched together in below zero weather. Thanks to the thousands and thousands of Minnesotans who turned out to stand up and speak out. ICE OUT.

Oola: Yeah.

Grady: It used to belong to Marilyn Monroe.

Grady: She had small shoulders... just like you. A lot of people don 't know that.

A reminder that @bradtabke.bsky.social won his seat by 14 votes and it took Melissa Hortman 6 weeks of a DFL boycott to get him seated in the Minnesota House. He's been leading efforts in Shopee since ICE targeted his community. F'ing hero, putting it all on the line.
New action just dropped: local developer Opus wants to profit off mass detention and mass misery in Shakopee. See below, from @bradtabke.bsky.social (original skeet deleted due to need for follow-up from me)

If our former presidents had spines, they would show up in Minneapolis tomorrow. Dare ICE to confront the Secret Service. I'd settle for Obama and Bush.
A major coalition is launching a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow, aimed at pushing out ICE.

It includes:

-Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1005
-The MN AFL-CIO
-SEIU Local 26
-UNITE HERE Local 17
-CWA Local 7250
-Saint Paul and Minneapolis Federations of Educators
-Faith leaders

And more. 🧵

It's just another Wednesday for Amy, apparently.
Yes it’s cold in Minnesota—but we embrace it. John and I were in Hastings with Mayor Fasbender for Hockey Day Minnesota to watch my alma mater, Wayzata High School, take on Rogers. Photo taken with parents right after their son scored a goal!

I am not a social media influencer I am just a regular Minneapolis dad trying to do a kid pickup this morning and get some gas. What do I find but that one guy and a bunch of bortech (whatever that is) blocking the station for a glamour shot. I stood right where I wanted to stand this is my town.

So it's "dude comes out of his house to yell obscenities at legal observers" day. You'd think they'd be smart enough to know property records are searchable online, particularly when they're real estate agents with unusual last names. Wonder if Keller Williams Edina knows what their boy is up to.
