This election is too important to sit out or sit back. So make a plan by November 3rd.

I know this sounds dumb and feeble but we have to stop these people - it's like we're in a bus being driven off a cliff and no one is trying to grab the wheel

No need to fact check and be reasonable about this - Trump is attacking Omar because she is a black immigrant from Africa, a Muslim, a woman, and represents Minnesota. She's the personification of everything Trumpism is against.

There will be a lot of equivocating about all the times search warrants have been executed on members of Congress for corruption investigations and the like, and it can't be stressed enough in how many ways HSI raiding Ilhan Omar is extremely not like that.

10 years of this guy degrading everything around him

One thing we can all agree on is that I've watched a lot of TV in the past 26 years

FUCK ICE. Pay us back.

if I were married to the guy who's big policy idea was "render innocent people to third world torture prisons with no due process" I would be extremely careful about invoking the ideas of fairness or justice in making the case for how you should be treated!

I had really thought he died when this happened

But don't try to give someone a bottle of water while they stand in line in the heat to vote or offer them a ride to the polls. That's bribery..

Minneapolis shooting today, details still coming but it sounds like another guy with a gun shot and killed people because he was angry and couldn't find a better way to deal with it Still waiting on those mental health resources that are supposed to help reduce gun deaths, I guess

Sometimes I really feel the weight of a culture in which 30-40% of people don't accept facts or common knowledge. The rest of us end trying to prove, again and again, ideas that are obvious, only to find that proof doesn't matter. They will believe lies and fantasies no matter what we show them.

Between December, 2025, and February, 2026, more than 3,000 federal immigration agents were deployed in Minneapolis—detaining nearly 4,000 immigrants, and killing two U.S. citizens. Emily Witt reports on the aftermath of Operation Metro Surge. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/e81B54

Dolly Parton showed us a positive type of the Me Too phenomenon - it seems like there are going to be thousands of stories about how she helped someone once without looking for credit or publicity

in a world of JK Rowlings be a Dolly Parton

Since TPS was meant to be temporary, Congress needs to approve permanent residence for these people rather than keeping them in legal limbo or allowing them to be deported

Tourism supports more jobs and economic impact in Minnesota than mining, keep the water unpolluted

My real issue is that Michele Tafoya thinks being a US Senator is an entry level political job

It's always weird to me that the 2nd Amendment warriors don't seem to care much about the 1st Amendment (or any others) Freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, these are the basics

Hmm sure OK

✅ DFL US Senate: Peggy Flanagan wins. AP race call at 10:27 p.m. on Aug. 11, 2026.

Gubernatorial. Gubernatorial? This can't be right.

Finally got to The Odyssey and now want to see the Guy Piccioto biopic starring Robert Pattinson

First time at a St. Paul Saints game (!!!)

Strib quotes Steve Brandt, president of the Board of Estimate and Taxation, "the mayor plans to more accurately budget police overtime. Last year was the seventh straight year of record overtime costs; the last time the city stayed within its overtime budget was 2018." Frey was elected in 2018 😑

TEN Things I Hate About You? In this economy?

Come on people. "The widespread accessibility of DNA tests has unraveled cases across the world where fertility doctors have been found to be biological fathers. More than 50 fertility doctors in the United States have been accused of fraud for donating sperm."

Fauci hearing underlines how much was broken (especially brains) during 2020 and COVID. We're still dealing with the inflation and the mistrust of science and public health. Maybe everything has to be partisan now, but it's nuts how many people still want to "take sides" on a global pandemic.

Have to get this out of my system

New Phoebe Bridgers is really working for me youtu.be/4KXnboPN1p4?...

Truly outrageous - not a lot of details yet but it seems another peaceful law abiding gun owner suddenly stopped being law abiding and killed several people. We shouldn't have to live like this.

“It appears we are about to experience what may be the largest wildfire in modern Minnesota history. It feels like a fire-breathing, town-eating dragon is coming for us,” writes Jana Studelska.

120 Minutes was one of those things I love/hated at the time, waiting through songs I wasn't crazy about (soooo much Love and Rockets) for the surprise gems, but there is no denying its lasting influence. RIP Dave

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Yes, I will be casually dropping the term Bicenquinquagenary a lot today

It's wild looking at the transcript of this TAL episode from 2016 - residents in Tom Emmer's district afraid of Sharia law, immigrants on welfare, etc etc - and at that time he was pushing back!! www.thisamericanlife.org/600/transcript

I bet Trump actually asked to make the reflecting pool "all gay" for Pride month and the workers misunderstood

This is what I've been wondering about the last few months

If potatoes turn out to be an intelligent alien species we're going to have a lot of explaining to do
