john fetterman is the first rat in history to climb onto a sinking ship.

Everything else aside, taking a principled anti-war crimes stance provides a nice contrast at the current moment.

🚨 ICE just published their recent numbers and it's worse than we thought. JUNE: ICE and CBP took 43,138 people. That works out to 1,474 of our neighbors every single day. JULY: 65,765 people are now inside US concentration camps.

keith ellison is running for minnesota attorney general for 3rd time because “never in the history of my life, probably since world war 2, has the rule of law been under attack the way it is now,” esp seen during operation metro surge he is here to stand up to trump admin, has sued over 70 times

This is your annual Gallup migration appreciation post. Only 29% of Americans now want immigration decreased, down from 55% just two years ago, and 31% want it increased, almost back to the all-time high of 2020. Repeat after me: in this house, we believe that thermostatic opinion is real.

minneapolis police department’s estimated overtime cost from june 28 to july 4 is $379,500 the total cost of OT for 2026 is estimated at $16.8 million, exceeding this year’s OT allocation by $2,265,500 MPD are defunding us, raising property taxes and this could lead to layoffs at the city

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

Mourners marched across the Mississippi to the federal building carrying coffins for every migrant that has died in DHS custody.

Funeral processions for the 51 people who have died in ICE detention. These are recorded deaths and there could be more. Happened this morning on July 4th, in Minneapolis. @sunrisemvmt.bsky.social @mn50501.bsky.social

"Tom Emmer knows he can kowtow to Trump like a sniveling stray because he’s in a seat that is safely GOP by some 20 percentage points. And yet his recent comments about Somali immigrants sank to a new subterranean low," Rochelle Olson writes.

Lucky doesn’t know what news is.

Happy Pride. Justice for Renee Good

Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.   Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us.

Zohran Mamdani becomes one of the first mayors in the US (and among a small handful of prominent US officials generally) to recognize the Nakba — the mass expulsion and forced displacement of 700,000+ Palestinians. Connected directly with a Nakba survivor:

I will have three affordable pieces for sale at art a whirl in the Alight room at the Quincy building . Fundraiser to support refugees in mn Here’s one of them . Underpriced, so go get it

You’ll ALL be happy to know that I can view my followers again. They reappeared shortly after I made a public post tagging Bluesky about the persistent problem. Maybe “They” did something to fix it. ????

How many deaths so far on this regime’s hands: USAID cuts Detention camp deaths DHS murders Iran, Lebanon, Gaza, Somalia Bombed boats CDC and NHS cuts Health care & medicaid cuts and changes = 1,000,000+ including many paid for by US taxpayers Also: My taxes went *way* up. Did yours?

Hello from Minneapolis.

Her exact words were “fuck his ass” #DoctorJesus

Senate approves rollback of #BWCA protections 50-49.

Sen. Tina Smith plans marathon speech to oppose reopening mining near the Boundary Waters: “I am going to hold the Senate floor for hours to give them every opportunity to change their minds and do the right thing," Smith said.

Trump’s proposed $1.5 trillion defense budget will take money from Medicaid,Medicare, childcare, and more.

Really excited to start Bluebird, Bluebird from Locke and the highway 59 books. New books to me and I can’t wait.

Congratulations, Hungary!

More villages in South Lebanon being detonated by Israel. Israel is the one sharing these videos. They are proud of their war crimes.

This is what it sounds like to live next to a data center

Today 27 shackled detainees were flown from Minnesota to Louisiana. Every ICE Air flight at MSP is observed by MN50501 volunteers - ICE hasn't stopped, neither have we. Data: ottergoose.net/ice-flights-msp/data/

Reminder that as a judge, Todd Barnette appointed many of the Charter Commissioners who are now trying to remove the Minneapolis City Council’s power to approve several department heads, an approval Barnette just failed to get as a department head.

WHY IS EVERYONE DRIVING SLOWLY AROUND S MINNEAPOLIS RIGHT NOW? Why?? It took us 45 minutes to go 6 miles

communications like this from angie craig now are gonna make it hard for her to have an anti party insiders and caucus & convention process narrative when she loses the DFL endorsement to peggy flanagan

At my first U of MN regents’ meeting since 1982. Here with Indivisible Education Action Committee & the Birddogs political action group’s Educational Freedom committee. A watchful presence, also working to connect with alumni who care about academic freedom and the impact of budget cuts

"The world witnessed what happened in Gaza. It’s happening again now. It’s planned, systematic and is happening in plain sight, while a US president threatens civilisational erasure and what’s left of the international order collapses." www.thenerve.news/p/lebanon-wa...

Last year, Dr. Ezequiel Véliz was named 2025 Resident of the Year at UT Health, Rio Grande Valley. Last week, ICE detained him in McAllen, Texas—ripping him away from his family, his life, and his patients.

Beware chatty white men at the Finnish Bistro

The more I think about the 70,000 ICE incarcerated without due process the more I think we are underreacting. People are literally trapped inside for profit prisons. We need to do something.

There is absolutely NO DOUBT in my mind that the people who make weapons and make billions off the deaths they cause find a reason every few years to "need to go to war and kill people" so they have to make more weapons. We are a very, very sick society.

The big winners in the Iran war: The U.S. "defense" industry and the politicians they keep in their pockets.

I couldn't breathe because I was laughing so hard. That bird's an asshole! 😂😂😂😂😂 Best with volume up.

Fantastic, glad to see your priorities are in the right place, Mr. Speaker, and I hope you’re enjoying your vacation while the President is threatening to kill an entire civilization.
