We owe a great debt to the Rev. Jesse Jackson, who paved the way for so many leaders of today.
Reverend Jackson was a civil rights icon, a steadfast ally to Labor, and a shining example of what it means to organize for a better future.
May he rest in peace.

There has been no draw down today. ICE snatched someone off Central Ave out of his car because he looked Latino before then letting him go a couple hours later. They were stopping people in Blaine on highway 65, they were all around Fridley, and were in the parking lot of the St Anthony liquor store

This morning Tom Homan announced operation metro surge would end soon. I’ll believe it when I see it. We still need people out and staying vigilant until every last agent is gone and everyone wrongly taken to Texas or anyone else is back home.

Decrying trans people calling out transphobia in your political party in an effort to build unity isn’t something that I would say is very unifying.
