The priest just kinda laughed
The deacon caught a draft
She crashed into the Easter mass
With her hair done up in broken glass
She was limping left on broken heels
And three days later arrested on federal charges

"We're gonna create a database of people who will never have to buy their own drinks at any bar in the Twin Cities."
TOM HOMAN: “We’re going to create a database where those people that are arrested for interference, impeding and assault, we’re going to make them famous. We’re going to put their face on TV. We’re going to let their employers, in their neighborhoods, in their schools, know who these people are.”

Like most Americans, I am horrified by the killing of U.S. citizens by ICE agents in Minneapolis in recent days. The death of Alex Jeffrey Pretti — a 37-year-old ICU nurse — on Saturday demands a thorough and independent investigation to ensure accountability.

Something that may not be registering outside Minnesota is this: everything—EVERYTHING— the administration says about what’s happening here is a lie.
Big or small, it doesn’t matter. They tell the world untruths, and we in Minnesota suffer the consequences.
