A lot happened in 2025–from the deployment of National Guard in cities across the country to airstrikes in the Caribbean to DOGE's incursion into executive agencies to the weaponization of the Justice Department—and we covered it all.

The replies to this post are so depressing. Self-driving cars have the potential to save tens of thousands of lives. Minnesota should encourage this as much as possible, including by amending state law if necessary!
Waymo, the driverless ride-hailing company, is bringing its fleet of autonomous electric vehicles to Minneapolis.
Ridesharing without a driver? It's coming to Minneapolis
Testing will begin Thursday morning. No date has been set to start offering rides to passengers.

ICE unmasked: California officials clash over enforcement of looming law
Some legal experts say the no-mask mandate will likely be struck down — and one top prosecutor is already advising federal agents to ignore the new law set to take effect next year.
