Does anyone know of resources for temporary emergency housing? I have an immediate need for a family of four. ICE was inside their building today and wrote down all the names on the mailboxes. They are rightfully very afraid. Hotels don’t seem safe or sustainable. Please DM me.

My representative should be on tv showing clips of this shit to everyone every fucking night until this bullshit ends. We are being fucking abandoned by our state and federal representatives.

this is probably too-nuanced a take for social media, but i have been thinking that a *lot* of politicians did not run initially thinking they'd serve during a dictatorship. Like this was not actually the job they wanted/said they could do, and they are wholly unprepared to meet the moment 1/

I refuse to stay silent while Secretary Noem breaks the rule of law and terrorizes our communities. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment against her for violating the public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

If you have any funds to spare and want to help Minneapolis right now, getting dash cams to observers is crucially important and especially after today

ICE observers in the Twin Cities are in need of dash cams to prevent further intimidation and frivolous claims.

Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

If you've been looking for a way to help, we'd sure appreciate it!

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK

Since it's come up again, I'll try to succinctly state my view on "AI" as we think of it in culture & tech these days. I think "Big AI" products (ChatGPT, Google Gemini) are mostly terrible for society, because they've been foisted without consent on millions, with lies about what they can do.

I’m a teacher at one of the public schools in Minneapolis. One of our janitors, Henry, is majorly behind on his rent, struggling to afford his heart medications, and can’t afford groceries.

Speaker Hortman was a bold and brave leader who made hard decisions and fought for the people of Minnesota every single day.

She and her husband Mark did not deserve to die. My heart goes out to their children.

Hortmann and her husband are dead according to Erin Murphy, reported on KSTP.

Good for Brasa.

people just showing up to bluesky: there's not enough political conflict here

bluesky, for the entire first year and a half of its existence:

i think that the people interested in recriminations and score settling right now aren’t seriously grappling with the magnitude of what happened and the implications for the rest of our lives. most of us will probably die living in the political order that will emerge out of this election.

In very exciting news, my first children's book, This Land, is available for pre-orders today! The book is about a kid learning that all land in the Americas is Indigenous land. It's also illustrated by an amazing Anishinaabekwe, Bridget George.

This is one of the things that gives me hope - these numbers are too huge now for the dominant culture to write everyone there off as being 'pro-terrorist'... that trick doesn't work anymore, and that's a new development

Truly a historic and phenomenal accomplishment by abortion organizers

This is Gogo. I’m trying to get on @amityf.bsky.social’s local cat feed, and apparently can’t just be a lurker if I want to join the MSP feed 🙂
