You're spot on.

My undergrad degree is in conflict & peace studies. If journalists can only read one thing, then it should be this. 👇 So many steps are needed before the *possibility* of reconciliation.

National Weather Service: windchill is -26 in Mpls right now. Protestors have icicles on their eye lashes. And thousands are marching.

They're headed to the Target Center (not owned by Target).

THAT was the question Tapper asked? Frey said fuck. And look at what Noem is saying on her podium 👇

Is Tapper trying to compare the two as equal? Does he think if Frey hadn't said fuck then Trump would haven't LIED about the video?

As a broadcaster let me say: Fuck the fuck off Jake Tapper.

And the mood is "well, if you don't break American laws then you'll be fine."

@kenschneck.bsky.social decided to go out into the freezing cold to promote this week's ep of This News Is So Gay.

I, on the other hand, did not.

But however you listen to your podcasts (in the frigid snow or wearing thick sweaters indoors) here's the link!

@boltsmag.org flagged this important school board race in CO. In the unofficial results, it looks like all 4 GOP school members lost. If it holds, that is huge for both the school system and LGBTQ kids.

Ok, 99% in. No one received 50% in Minneapolis Mayor race. So, ranked choice kicks in.

Frey: 41.8%
Fateh: 31.7%
Davis: 13.7%
Hampton: 10.4%
