if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

If I want to watch Wicked 1 & 2 with the original movie what order should I do it in? I’ve seen this suggested as the simplest:
Wild at Heart
Wicked 1
Wicked 2
But I think mixing it up more could work?

the “good” thing about angie craig running for statewide office is that the entire progressive apparatus can drag her for ten months
the bad thing is that peggy flanagan is simultaneously torching her bona fides by basically making her candidacy a flanagan/franken ticket

Instead of standing up for immigrants who were impacted by ICE this week, @repangiecraig.bsky.social is supporting performative resolutions meant to divide the Democratic Party event further.
We haven’t forgotten your vote to strip due process away from immigrants. It’s the America you asked for.

trump is literally the easiest mark on the planet. mamdani probably brought him some dumb gift and congratulated him on the election victory. as long as the person is polite and flatters him correctly, trump is not smart enough to realize when he’s being played.

“i would feel safer within several tons of metal” ok. what about all the people (+ infrastructure) outside that several tons of metal? the way forward is not a more-metal arms race. we have to reduce car traffic to 10% of its current rate. then go even lower.

Genuinely obscene that after encouraging multiple suicides, OpenAI is allowed to have any influence at all on education.

For what it's worth, people within the City have proposed a rent registry, requiring landlords to report the rents for every unit annually. The industry has fought that proposal tooth and nail. They know. If the data was actually good for them, they'd want to sound it to the heavens.

quite clear that it is not rent control that is the issue. the issue is the hissy fits developers throw when they ice out new construction on any municipality that dares constrain their exploitation of the renter class. it’s all revenge and punishment. fuck them and fuck @ward3.minneapolismn.gov
4) why do you think it is preferable that developers MUST be able to hike rents as high as they want? is that the only way it’s “worth it” to build housing? unending profits and unfettered wealth extraction from the residents? why would we continue to rely on such ghouls for housing?
1) why do you believe a profit-motivated developer?
2) why would you spread their bullshit as if it were obvious truth?
3) why are you treating it like normal that developers can hold their properties hostage like that to inflict pain on communities and get the electoral outcomes they want?

last night, @ward3.minneapolismn.gov said that a developer in the east bank was holding off on building housing because of the mere THREAT of rent control from ??? a potential mayor fateh ??? and then said “that’s what happened in saint paul.” so, to be clear, fuck michael rainville.

my representative says ABOLISH ICE
Every single day ICE agents are threatening people and terrorizing communities.
We’ve seen ICE pepper spray babies, disappear US citizens, slam distraught mothers and fathers to the ground—now they’re terrorizing St. Paul.
ICE is out of control and should be abolished.

Federal agents from ICE, DEA and the FBI raided a St. Paul paper distributor Tuesday morning. Hundreds of community members responded in protest, clashing with officers. At least two people were detained by authorities, according to a witness.
