Minneapolis should be very proud of their Mayor, very proud
REP. @aoc.bsky.social : “I understand VP Vance believes shooting a young mother in the face 3x is an acceptable 🇺🇸 he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance and I. I do not believe 🇺🇸 people should be assassinated in the street.”

“I’m so proud, by the way, of so many people throughout our city who have united around—yes, getting justice; yes, First Amendment speech; yes, peaceful protest; and also, importantly, not taking the bait.”

Minneapolis @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social on the importance of not taking the bait.

Frey: "I think [Vance] also asserted that because you work at the federal government you somehow have absolutely immunity from committing crimes. That's not true in any law school in America, whether it's Yale or Villanova or anywhere else. That's not true."

Mayor Jacob Frey: “There’s little I can say again that will make this situation better, but I do have a message for our community, for our city, and I have a message for ICE — To ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis”

I wish more officials would abandon decorum when situations are truly egregious

One thing I'll miss, because we'll never get broadcasting like this again - is when Vin Scully would share a story about baseball of yesteryear. This was Vin's account of seeing Sandy Koufax at his Brooklyn Dodgers try out.

James Talarico: The Bible doesn't mention abortion or gay marriage, but it goes on and on about forgiving debt, liberating the poor, and healing the sick. The closest thing we have to the kingdom of heaven is a multiracial, multicultural democracy where power is truly shared among all people

Institutionalized regression in consumer protection.

Next, they’ll make seat belts optional in the name of “choice”. 🤡
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald happened 50 years ago today.

Gordon Lightfoot memorialized the tragedy in a haunting song.

Bob Dylan once implied that Gordon Lightfoot was the greatest songwriter of all time. He was certainly one of the great ones.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).
