Minneapolis is the capital of the U.S. right now. Random middle aged aunties on the ground there are showing more physical and moral courage in one volunteer shift than Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have in their entire lives combined.
literally everything i’ve seen this month makes me want to move to twin cities and build a life there

The Department of Homeland Security has ordered immigration officers to gather identifying information about anyone filming them and to “send that information to Intel who will do a ‘work-up’ on them,” a federal law enforcement official involved tells me.

these temperatures are actually normal for this time of year. people here are used to it. it's not strange for someone to go outside in a t-shirt when it's thirty below to check the mail. so I could do with less of your judgement and with more of your help getting my penis unfrozen from the sidewalk

Them, but also more directly: 285 people out of 535 could end all this (218 + 67). That fact should not be treated as an "oh they'll never do it" shrug, as if they don't have agency. They should be hammered constantly as traitors and cowards every day they don't.
Seeing a bunch of normal ass midwestern moms and dads marching in -20 degrees knowing they might be tear gassed or worse really drives home what a cowardly lot of people the pundit class is

Whether it’s liberals peacefully protesting a murder and a child abduction in Minneapolis or conservatives threatening a bloody insurrection in Washington DC, both sides have shattered the norms of civilized behavior

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.

I deleted TikTok back when the Oracle purchase was announced but if you've still got it, you GOTTA dump it. Especially for trans folks. It straight up says in the new TOS that they--Oracle, the company that has active ties to the Trump admin--are monitoring and documenting trans and NB users.

We wanted to know what Minnesotans thinks about ICE's infiltration of their state. So we talked to a retired couple that moved from the exurbs of Minneapolis to the exurbs of Phoenix.

If you think ICE is heading to your town, start organizing now. We had a lot of the infrastructure but still have taught so many people things they’ve never had to learn before, about community, mutual aid, etc. I just connected two people yesterday! It’s growing. You could have a head start.

Seattle's light rail has been so successful — 24% more riders than pre-COVID — because it acts like a heavy rail metro, offering faster-than-driving speeds between the city's busiest neighborhoods.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.
