It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

Social Security got hit with more body blows this week: its commissioner is moonlighting as the made-up "CEO" of the IRS, and 750,000 applicants could be denied disability benefits. More from Bob Kuttner:

Democrats on the oversight committees should ask the cabinet witnesses: "For the record, are you pro-fascist or anti-fascist"?

Too bad we lost 2 unsheltered people at different encampments a couple weeks ago. Nobody is trying to immediately give any others decent shelter options so more don't die

Will you be going out to our homeless encampments to make sure our unsheltered population is vaccinated? bsky.app/profile/gove...

Can’t believe I have to say this, but in Minnesota you will continue to have the freedom to get your COVID and flu shots.

Don't families already have enough support? There were people shot in an encampment a few weeks ago, and nobody ever asks why they can't get decent indoor shelter options so they don't die while waiting to be housed.

You should try providing cheaper shelter so people don't have to keep dying from homelessness in our streets.

People need to demand better conditions for unsheltered people, & it doesn't stop at Frey (although he's a big part of the problem). If Hennepin gave unsheltered single adults hotel rooms like they do unsheltered parents, encampments wouldn't exist. bsky.app/profile/adem...

Frey hates the homeless so much that he's literally causing the streets to be filled with piss because he's closing all of the city bathrooms. Genuinely do not understand his coalition. Bare minimum for a mayor is half decent sanitation, guy can't even bench the bar.

We shouldn't "tolerate" homelessness either, yet Hennepin doesn't seem very interested in getting hotel rooms for single, childless, unsheltered adults so they don't die before they become housed.

Too bad our local media can't be bothered to actually ask victims of these bad policies what they'd like to see that would get unsheltered people out of encampments, and indoors where they would be safer until housed, but I guess that's just too much of an ask. bsky.app/profile/dbra...

Continues to be striking how, since Frey erected the greenway fence to Lake/Nicollet, the crowd has returned en masse to 2900 block of Blaisdell. Frey bleats “you can’t have encampments by home & businesses“ but that’s exactly where he’s pushed these folks. Meanwhile 50 housing vouchers go unfunded.

Emergency HOTEL/MOTEL vouchers would work better. If Hennepin would have at least a hotel/motel in Mpls, and a couple more in bordering suburb, we probably wouldn't have people outdoors in encampments.
