Just, thank heavens for @naomikritzer.bsky.social. What would we do without her?? Even in the (admittedly rare) cases where we might differ ideologically, she's so transparent about how she makes recs that it's easy to make your own evaluations. She's asking for donations here to thank her.

please help a future teacher stay in school if you can! because of the trump administration lowering the amount of federal student loans students can receive, her FAFSA didn't cover her full tuition www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-fut...

This service is essential and must be funded! @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social @elliottpayne.org @aishaforward10.com @mayorher.bsky.social @metcouncilmn.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov

Ugh, my life of the past four years, and when I was a college student, would be unrecognizable without @hourcar.bsky.social. Sudden closure sucks beyond words. A simple action you can take to mitigate disruption to 4k+ people and local economies who rely on this transportation: savecarsharemn.org

If you are upset about the Hourcar/Evie news, please please please reach out to your representatives. The funding gap is so small - this is something they can figure out! But we have to let them know we want it! #SaveHourcar savecarsharemn.org

City and county leaders can still step in with emergency bridge funding, and they need to hear from us, in our own words, this week. savecarsharemn.org @hourcar.bsky.social #Minneapolis #StPaul #TwinCities #HourCar #carshare

This is an absolute travesty. The leadership of Minneapolis and Saint Paul and the Met Council should be SCREAMING! Services like Hourcar and Evie are ESSENTIAL to their vision for our region.

Breaks my heart for Minneapolis that this politically expedient & baseless message is being made by some leaders. Officers showed up under a minute. No evidence that drones would have prevented this What would have reduced harm & led to prevention & is evidence backed is COMPREHENSIVE GUN CONTROL.

well, I never expected to be published in a Stanford journal, but the McKnight Foundation asked me write my thesis to the philanthropic world after the MN ICE surge: when there is an emergency, just... give money to people on the ground doing the actual work. as fast as possible. radical, I know.

RIP Karen Clark. 🕊️❤️ We lost a giant. She was the first openly lesbian member to serve in the MN Legislature, spent decades fighting for LGBTQIA+ rights, environmental justice, & BIPOC neighbors. She spent her last decade fighting for the East Phillips Urban Farm that we will get done in her honor.

Seattle elects a socialist mayor, wins the Super Bowl NYC elects a socialist mayor, wins the NBA finals Win your city a major sports title with this one neat trick

We didn’t qualify for SNAP, but we were pretty broke. Rotisserie chicken with a side salad was a staple in my house growing up (raised by a single parent). It was also one of the best meals we got. Shame on you @repangiecraig.bsky.social

Minneapolis WE KEEP IS SAFE t-shirts/stickers site is NOW LIVE: we-save-us.cheddarup.com The shirts honor everyone who resisted ICE; all $ after shipping/making costs go to Lucy Laney school mutual aid in N Mpls. Buy as much as you want; you have to add shirts to cart 1 at a time (sorry). Please RT!

The bulk of the national discourse is focused on preventing white people from getting caught in the crosshairs of ICE’s violence. And the reason that feels so crazymaking in Minnesota is because we were organizing before Renee Good’s murder to protect people of color targeted by ICE.

This is CRITICAL. I know you’re all putting your back into mutual aid & a thousand other great things, but if there’s anything left here, so many folks depend on these front-line lawyers right now.

Here is the fundraiser for Renee Good’s wife and son, from a very trusted source.

Reminder that federal immigration agents routinely lie about people weaponizing vehicles against them. youtu.be/9ws1r6CaSXs?...

Holding the incredible tension of this time - Jason's inauguration for his current city council term was yesterday. AND his beloved uncle was kidnapped yesterday. Let's help bring him home.

the people ripping out their hair over "Somali Fraud" do not bat an eye at MPD being $19 million over budget, because their so called values are as fraudulent as the schemes themselves

Election 2025: Minneapolis Mayor Race (the four contenders). My ranking: (1) DeWayne Davis (2) Omar Fateh (3) Jazz Hampton naomikritzer.com/2025/09/18/e...

I had the opportunity to sit down with Eric Roper to share why I think Minneapolis has everything we need to tackle our biggest problems. I hope you'll take the time to read about what I know we can do together with compassionate, principled leadership. www.startribune.com/dewayne-davi...

“The response to this week's mass shooting at an encampment highlights the lack of empathy, imagination and leadership that mark Frey's tenure. His administration seems to only know how to pull two levers: eviction and fencing.” Shoutout to @beukema.bsky.social for his letter in today’s Strib

This camp is being violently evicted right now in the wake of a devastating shooting. People are mourning community members and simultaneously having their homes bulldozed. If you have t shirts, drinks, aspirin, new underwear, or cigarettes please bring to 1100 E Lake between 3-7 for distro!

@mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social What have you done in your terms that makes you worthy of keeping your position?

Please share widely!

there is a search going on right now at minnehaha falls for missing 12 year old child victoria alexandria jackson and they need more people helping if anyone can go join, please share this flyer!!!

She was last seen wearing a tan Rugrat shirt, blue jeans, and red and black shoes, according to the MPD.

Your girl Angie Craig amongst 75 Democrats that joined Republicans to "express gratitude" to ICE agents and call for greater local and state collaboration with ICE.

Ya the MPD are really know for keeping our community safe 😒 Do better Jacob

but you vetoed the budget which included funding for the rise up center and funding to support driver's license education & access program classes for undocumented people

It’s the little things that get me through the day

I wrote about my frustrations with the police chief pretending he hasn't been given a blank check. And how we seem to have forgotten that we changed the government structure to draw clear lines of authority from the mayor to almost everything.

Frey is such slime

Worth yelling about this! If you're angry about the decision to deny covid vaccinations to people under 65 (if they're considered "low risk") let them know!

Well I braided one side of my head perfect on the first try. Which means the other side is going to be impossible.

I wrote about the group of undercover landlords and investors trying to take over our Minneapolis elections, and why people should care. I tried to make it accessible to folks who aren't already familiar with Minneapolis politics, so please share! mplsmusings.com/2025/05/14/t...
