Minnesota, we’re forcing change. Keep the pressure, keep saying Renee Good and Alex Pretti’s names, keep demonstrating the very best of America. Hate STILL has no home here. ICE OUT!

@ericswalwell.bsky.social blasts GOP at Jack Smith hearing. “They are a joke. These guys are lucky they’re not under oath because they’d have to tell you what they really think of Trump. They call him crooked, cruel, a scumbag. But when the cameras are on, you’re tiny, you’re small, you shrink.”

I’m running out of adjectives to describe the abhorrent and cruel occupation of Minnesota. This administration’s obsession with our state and our residents is maniacal.

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.

The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

We just want affordable health care, cheaper groceries, and safe schools. There’s no funding for that. But there’s always funding for war.

🚨"They're pulling it from the fascist playbook...Governor Walz, if you are listening, if you are watching, activate the national guard. I was in the National Guard. This is what we are for. WE NEED HELP. Defend your citizens. We need help. We can not do this alone. LIVE NOW ⬇️

My guess: AG will announce charges but info will be limited. It’s difficult but not impossible to prosecute. We must push them. How will they make sure it gets out of the gate? How will they leverage resources to actually get past barriers? Mayor Her said she’d “actively rise to meet this moment.”

“‘I said take me instead of her. I am not afraid of you either.’ Then ICE pointed a gun in my face, put handcuffs on my hands and put me in a black SUV… they came back and said, ‘Are you afraid yet?' I said ‘no.’

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗮𝗶𝗱 ‘𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹, 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘄𝗮𝘆.’”

This, for example, is a small thing Walz can do: declare a state of emergency so the cities can put in an eviction moratorium.

Weird to be commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Am Rev while living under a government that has a) sent armed troops to occupy cities perceived to be too rebellious, b) rendered largely irrelevant the representative branch of government, and c) claimed imperial right to rule other countries.

PBS News Weekend signs off YouTube video by PBS NewsHour

Attacking and defunding independent news is anti-democratic and anti-American. We’ve seen this tactic before. State-sponsored media is propaganda.

“Propaganda works best when those who are being manipulated are confident they are acting on their own free will.”

GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT. Minnesota is NOT the one. This federal government has no place in the Twin Cities. This federal government has no place in Minnesota. This federal government is as anti-American as it gets. Get the fuck out.

We cannot be more clear. Leave us the fuck alone.

Thank you @mayorfrey.com! ICE, get the fuck out of Minnesota!

Trump knowing he’ll be impeached for a THIRD time should be worrisome for the American populous. Remember this moment in history, regardless of the outcome of midterms. The President of the United States knows his actions are impeachable offenses and still doubles down on them.

We will not let the horrific events of January 6, 2021, be rewritten or whitewashed by Trump and Republicans.

So for months they have tried to blame the entire fentanyl crisis on Venezuela and the indictment only mentions cocaine, which they pardoned a different guy for weeks ago

If abducting Venezuela’s sitting president was really about holding international drug rings accountable, then the full and complete pardoning of Honduras’ convicted drug trafficker ex-president is … oh wait. There’s no oil in Honduras.

So far the "Peace President" has bombed Yemen, Somalia, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Nigeria, and now Venezuela.

He's also threatened annexation or invasion of Greenland, Venezuela, Cuba, Mexico, and Colombia.

Reminds us of this 1984 quote "War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength."

TL;DR Votes won’t count, taxes will be late, and health care claims will be denied because Trump is trying to privatize #USPS.

Bet you 10 bucks that “mail will be delayed” right when we’re about to enter the election cycle.

We’re prosecuting the Feeding Our Future abhorrence while the president pardons fraudsters involved in exponentially more egregious schemes.

Where is the outrage from MAGA? Why is there even the hope of a pardon for people who defraud Americans? Why wasn’t $1.6 billion in stolen funds worth prison?

There is active ICE operations under way today in Saint Paul. I was on scene at BroTex this morning and am in close communication with our City Attorney’s Office and police department. Though we don’t have many details right now, I share the concern and fear this raises for our workers, families, and entire community. Remember you have rights. We encourage everyone to review the following information for what to do if you are stopped by federal law enforcement, how to safely and legally document proceedings in progress, and who to call for legal assistance. Visit stpaul.gov/immigration-resources. As a reminder, our Saint Paul police officers will always identify themselves. They wear clearly marked SPPD uniforms, display their badges, and, when relevant, produce a warrant. Our officers will help de-escalate situations when possible. And they do not wear face coverings.

1939–Great Depression, progress on atomic weapons, of course the start of WWII and escalation of the Holocaust.

1981–recession, Israㅌㄴ‘s illegal annex

HE'S APPEALING TO THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES THAT HE BE ALLOWED TO STARVE AMERICANS

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

We will not let Minnesotans go hungry.

It's appalling that SNAP benefits are cut off today, but we can't let our most vulnerable neighbors suffer. We're setting up food and resource collection sites at several library and rec center locations. Visit stpaul.gov/fooddrive to help!

Federal judge orders Trump administration to pay SNAP benefits out of contingency fund The ruling came one day before funding for SNAP, more commonly known as food stamps, was set to lapse.

Today at a press conference with @abettermn.bsky.social, we urged those who are able to donate to The Food Group, which will be absolutely vital to Minnesotans during the shutdown.
