This is so incredibly sad and infuriating. These individuals are members of our community in South Minneapolis and beyond. They are physicians, nurses, teachers, parents, bus drivers, and friends who have lived up to the American ideal of successfully integrating into our society. Absolute ghouls
Breaking News: The Trump Administration is launching an operation targeting Somali immigrants in Minneapolis, according to an official and newly obtained documents.

PBS passport is the absolute best! When my son was born, I would get up in the early morning with him, and on the weekends, he would sleep in my arms while I sipped coffee and binged watch @ricksteves.bsky.social.

Hello just wanted to say:

Public media is a useful public good. It is a source of great local news at a time when local news is being decimated. Also, in my 10 years in public media, I can say people who work here do it because they believe in the mission of informing people.

Just noting.

This is wildly underreported and lost in the minutiae. Absolutely terrifying
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Before press came in — but while live feed was running on Bukele’s feed — Trump said to him: “home-growns are next. … You’re gonna need to build about 5 more places.”

The ACA was cool because without it, due to a bleeding disorder I was born with and treatments exceeding 1 million a year, I would have no insurance, or would have had to change jobs every 2-3 years. Alternatively, I could have dwindled down my assets and gone on SSI. So yeah, it’s pretty cool.
