"In arctic temperatures, I’ve seen the best of a city, a state and, in many ways, a nation. Minnesotans (Americans!) from all walks of life have been working together with strength and courage to protect our ideals." www.startribune.com/ice-surge-mi...

People need to see what's going on in the Twin Cities. This happened a couple of days ago in our neighborhood of St. Paul. What are we even doing anymore? What are we supposed to tell our children? www.youtube.com/watch?v=AE-K...

Mapped: Unauthorized Immigrants by State Three states concentrate almost half of unauthorized immigrants.

A question I keep asking myself: Why Minnesota? Look at this map and don't believe the administration's lies. This is about political retribution, attacking a progressive community, and trying to spark a backlash. Why aren't cities in Texas seeing a "surge"? www.visualcapitalist.com/mapped-unaut...

In fact, we make people sign an agreement saying that their research, analysis, writing, and creative work are *theirs* and not done by GenAI.

I feel this sooooo much, too!

To my friends around the world. I’m sorry that the current administration is a complete and utter disgrace. Millions of us — myself included — are infuriated by what we just witnessed in the White House. We should be standing side by side and supporting Ukraine without conditions.

My dad went to his local VA hospital this week and learned that dozens of people there had been let go. During his appointment he learned that yet another person was let go and morale is in the tank. Trump, Musk, and their minions don't give a sh*t about veterans ... or anyone but themselves.

When I think Gene Hackman, I think Hoosiers.

Oh, and watching him commandeer today's cabinet meeting and talk about the need to rein in the national debt the DAY AFTER Republicans passed a budget bill that would add TRILLIONS to the deficit? Seriously?!?
