i feel so zen knowing the brewers are going to blow it tomorrow like they always do

(menards product manager trying to compete with the big home depot skeleton) maybe our thing could be like, just the skin

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

apparently when questioned about accepting landlord money from 110 grant resident, elizabeth shaffer says “it’s only $600.” if that’s the case, why not return it? it’s only $600. make a show of it, rejecting money from this slumlord who gave half a million to trump. tell him you reject his values

i love stupid iowa so much and it pisses me off so bad that rob sand is willing to give it up to the worst people in the world because he thinks it’ll give his career a little boost. why does he get to decide iowa’s not going to put up a fight. he shouldn’t get to do that to my family and my home.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

democrat who looks at state being dominated and destroyed by republicans who’s like you know what would fix this. if we pretend my party is too powerful and cede even more ground

It's banned book week, so I will now shamelessly ask you to check out this article I wrote a while back for @racketmn.com about one MN school district reversing its right-wing book ban racketmn.com/st-francis-m...

Related to this, it isn’t over

In a court filing, Martin Berchie says ICE forged his name on the travel document used to deport him to his native Ghana on Tuesday.

my landlord is having a bad day <3

The Minneapolis City Council passed a new ordinance that will require landlords who own properties repeatedly flagged for health and safety violations to face a public hearing before their licenses are renewed.

Last night I attended a public education listening tour hosted by Iowa Dem house members. So many teachers reiterated an atmosphere of total fear, surveillance, & reprisal. One elementary teacher said they refer to the Gulf of Mexico as "The Gulf" to avoid even the suspicion of bias.

it’s such a bizarre, offensive experience to have a candidate constantly telling us our neighborhood sucks. we literally like it, lydia

"Our neighborhood has become a ghost town, they said amid the lively bustle of the festival" rates among classics like:

"nobody comes here anymore, there's no place to park"

and

"why weren't we notified this was happening, the crowd moaned at the packed public meeting."

this is very rambling and mashed together, because i am not a writer, just someone who pays attention and has lived in loring park for 15 years, but i couldn't get over elizabeth shaffer's comments about 311 at the LWV ward 7 forum - taylordahlin.com/f/311-stop-s...

landlord john wall, minnetonka resident who caucuses and votes in ward 2 minneapolis and held a role on credentials committee that ousted the 80+ robin wonsley supporting delegates at the convention, found in violation of renters' rights voting law and fined
